[RFC] Deploy Lazy Summer Protocol to Hyperliquid HyperEVM (and pre-deploy on select new networks with 0 deposit caps)

Summary

Deploy Lazy Summer Protocol to Hyperliquid HyperEVM with initial vaults for USDC, USDT, and USDH. Hyperliquid’s onchain orderbook, native vault primitives (HLP), and fast-maturing money-market stack (HyperLend, HypurrFi, Hyperbeat/MorphoBeat, Felix) create a robust venue for diversified, risk-curated yield.

Additionally, within this RFC, is a proposal to pre-deploy (caps = 0) on additional networks so the protocol is technically “ready on day one. Once risk is assessed for networks like Monad, MegaETH, Avalanche, Plasma, BNB Chain and Mantle, we can lift caps network by network. Enabling Lazy Summer Protocol to capture demand rapidly.

Why now: Hyperliquid’s yield surface is broadening quickly (protocol vault HLP, native lending, Morpho-powered markets, curated vaults) and should further accelerate with USDH live. By contrast, ecosystems like Plasma and Linea have shown incentive-driven bursts with signs of near-term cooling/volatility post-launch programs.


Context & Motivation

Why HyperEVM

  • Native vault primitive (HLP): Community LP vault (HLP) earns trading-fee P&L from market making/liquidations; deposit/withdraw rules and transparency are clear. This adds an orthogonal yield stream vs. vanilla lend/borrow.
  • Multiple money-market fronts:
    • HyperLend (native lending/borrowing).
    • HypurrFi (pooled & isolated markets on HyperEVM).
    • Hyperbeat / MorphoBeat (Morpho-powered isolated markets; “immutable” market design).
    • Felix Vanilla/Vaults (Morpho-built variable-rate pools; curated for large traders).
  • Stablecoin surface expanding: USDH is live/planned as Hyperliquid’s native dollar—useful for base-currency vaults and cross-market routing.

Comparative note: Plasma & Linea

  • Plasma: Big launch metrics (stablecoin base, Aave/Chainlink integrations), but 7-day declines in activity and volumes suggest post-launch normalization, good candidate for “assess & pre-deploy; raise caps later.”
  • Linea: TVL surged on incentives (Ignition/Surge); sustainability after program sunsets is unclearmonitor, then decide.

Proposal (HyperEVM)

Scope (phase 1)**

  • Chains: Hyperliquid HyperEVM
  • Assets / vaults:
    • USDC Earn (yield sources: HyperLend, HypurrFi, MorphoBeat/Hyperbeat, Felix, HLP)
    • USDT Earn (yield sources: HyperLend, HypurrFi, MorphoBeat/Hyperbeat, Felix)
    • USDH Earn (Felix/MorphoBeat + native USDH venues)

Prepare networks primed for rapid growth

Deploy to new networks that will likely have robust yield ecosystems

Deploy Lazy Summer to a set of additional chains with deposit caps set to 0 at launch (tech-ready; no user funds). When risk is assessed and then governance can raise caps per chain.

  • **Pre-deploy (caps = 0):

    Monad
    MegaETH
    Avalanche
    Plasma
    BNB Chain
    Mantle

  • Why: Shortens lead time to activate TVL when timing is right (ecosystem incentives, liquidity depth, partner co-marketing).


Initial Hyperliquid Yield Sources (Arks) (non-exhaustive)**

Yield Source What it is
HLP Protocol vault that market-makes / liquidates on Hyperliquid; community LP shares P&L and fee revenue.
HyperLend (USDC/USDT) Native lending/borrowing on HyperEVM; capital-efficient money market.
HypurrFi (USDC/USDT/USDH) Pooled & isolated lending markets on HyperEVM; designed for leveraged yield routes.
Hyperliquid User Vaults Custom strategy vaults that run on HyperCore’s vault primitive (orderbook-native).
Felix (USDT/USDC/USDH) Morpho-built variable-rate pools + curated vaults optimized for large traders and managed caps.
Hyperbeat / MorphoBeat (USDC/USDT) Morpho-powered isolated markets and supply vaults integrated with Hyperliquid; “immutable” market design.
USDH Hyperliquid’s native stablecoin for base-currency vaults and cross-venue routing.

Open Questions for the Community

  • Of the new chains proposed, set to 0 caps, are any missing?

Next Steps

  • Gather feedback on venue mix and cap sizing.
  • Decide on the new chains that will be added new netork preperation with 0 caps
  • If approved, promote to SIP.

Solid proposal @samehueasyou! We have had discussions around new networks already, HyperEVM is maturing fast, and early deployment there (even with capped vaults) makes strategic sense.

I like the idea of pre-deploying with 0 caps across emerging networks as it keeps Lazy Summer Protocol technically ready without adding risk or management overhead.

Definitely interested in moving this one forward!

Yes please! This is one of the top yield sources atm and I’d love to use it.

This makes sense; I am for this.

Agree for HyperEVM deployment. HLP is not immediately redeemable. Hyperbeat’s hbUSDT and hbUSDC requires 2-3 business days.
