VALR launches Africa's first centralized exchange perpetuals on Hyperliquid's decentralized Layer-1 blockchain.

VALR, Africa's largest crypto exchange, has integrated Hyperliquid's Layer-1 blockchain to offer a new perpetuals product with over 200 markets, including equities, commodities, forex, and crypto. This marks the first time a major regulated centralized exchange has built directly on a decentralized protocol, blending centralized regulation with decentralized liquidity and trade execution. The product aims to provide deep on-chain liquidity and high-speed trading, with web access launching July 6 and mobile support soon after. This move validates Hyperliquid's protocol and signals a new hybrid model for crypto trading infrastructure.
