Crypto ETF issuer 21Shares has rolled out two new ETFs tied to Hyperliquid's HYPE token, marking the first U.S.-listed ETFs designed to track the rapidly growing decentralized trading ecosystem.

The new funds include the 21Shares Hyperliquid ETF (NASDAQ:THYP), which offers spot exposure alongside staking rewards, and the 21Shares 2x Long HYPE ETF (NASDAQ:TXXH), which provides leveraged exposure to the token's price movements.

The launch comes as Hyperliquid gains traction in decentralized finance, with the platform now accounting for more than 50% of decentralized perpetual futures open interest and roughly $8 billion in daily trading volume, according to the company.

21Shares said the move reflects rising investor demand for regulated products tied to on-chain trading infrastructure as crypto markets continue expanding beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum-focused strategies.

Andres Valencia, EVP of Investment Management at 21Shares, said Hyperliquid has evolved into a "global liquidity hub for decentralized derivatives," citing more than $4 trillion in cumulative trading volume since inception.

The firm added that the protocol's architecture operates fully on-chain using a real-time order book system without relying on external oracles — a structure that has increasingly attracted institutional and retail attention in the DeFi space.
