Hyperion offers a vault platform where market-making teams automate liquidity management through auto-compounding and rebalancing, and a bridge for moving assets between Aptos and other chains. A Drips program rewards liquidity provision, trading, and referrals with accumulations redeemable for governance token airdrops. The platform is used by traders, liquidity providers, and market-making teams active on Aptos. - Type: Project - Sector: DeFi - Status: Active - Founded: 2024-12-01 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/hyperion ## Products - [Hyperion](https://thegrid.id/profiles/hyperion): Hyperion is a hybrid orderbook-AMM decentralized exchange on Aptos Mainnet that combines concentrated liquidity market-making with meta-aggregation and vault strategies.
