Hyperliquid is amazing for me, it's very good for the industry and the end user to have at least a few top class competitive DEX's offering perps, it's one of the most interesting and useful features of DeFi. It's also important to diversify your portfolio into multiple exchanges to mitigate counterparty risk, so this is a very healthy competition going on between DEX's right now.
Of the many perp dex's active now, I see only very few with the potential to remain at the top level post TGE, and
Hyperliquid and
Lighter are among them, I can add 2 more potential contenders to this S tier list, anyone interested in being an active player in the perpetuals scene, feel free to contact me for all invites for bonus points.
Just wondering, are you trading in the alpha testing phase of Ethereal? Some people have been shilling their access codes and I hears that the team is self funded just like Hyperliquid.

And you know what that means... They could airdrop a huge portion of their supply because the devs are not beholden to private investors and their whims.
And the beauty of that set up is if they like to invest in the project, they could buy the tokens from the open market just like what happened to Hyperliquid. Huge money came in at the first day after TGE.
