The fifty coins
The 50 most-traded perpetual markets on Hyperliquid by 24-hour volume, read by this site itself. The list is rebuilt once a day, on the first visit after 00:00 UTC, from the volume of the 24 hours before that moment.
Crypto only. Stock, commodity and pre-IPO markets run on separate builder-run exchanges there and are never read. Left out by name before counting to fifty: stablecoins, wrapped or staked duplicates of a bigger coin, gold-backed tokens. Delisted markets are skipped. If fewer than fifty qualify, the list is shorter and says so. A "k" in front of a ticker is the exchange's own name for a market quoted per 1,000 coins.
Bigger than the last coin on the list, but left out today
The lock
When you press Lock, the server stamps the time. Each coin's entry price is the opening price of the first 1-minute candle that opens after that moment on that exchange, so a lineup can never be locked on a price you have already seen. All times are UTC.
These are the prices of perpetual contracts on one exchange. They can differ a little from the same coin's price elsewhere.
The score
score = ( long₁ + long₂ + long₃ − short₁ − short₂ ) ÷ 5
Each term is that coin's price move in percent, from its entry price to its price now (the exchange's mid price; the page asks again about once a minute). A short counts as the negative of the coin's move. After 24 hours the score is final: the last price is the close of the last 1-minute candle before lock + 24 h. Equal weight, no leverage, no fees, no funding: plain price moves.
The link
There is no account and no database of lineups. Your five coins and the lock time travel inside the link, signed by the server so they cannot be edited. Whoever opens it gets the score worked out again from the exchange's prices at that moment.
The exchange keeps 1-minute candles for about three days. A link that nobody opens in that time is scored from the first 5-minute, 15-minute or hourly candle instead, and its scoreboard says so. After about six months unopened it cannot be scored at all.
The honest part
Nothing stops a player from locking several lineups and sharing only the best one. The link proves which five were locked and when, nothing more. That is why nothing is at stake here: no prizes, no stakes, no leaderboard to win.
A game, not advice
Nothing is bought, sold or held: a lineup is five tickers and a timestamp. Nothing on this page is a recommendation to trade anything.
