Getting started on Hyperliquid means a few things happening in order: understanding what a blockchain actually is, getting a wallet funded and bridged to the right network, and deciding whether your first trade should be a straightforward spot buy or a leveraged perpetual position. Skipping straight to leverage before any of that is set up is the most common way a first trade goes badly for reasons that have nothing to do with the market. These guides cover the basics of blockchain and wallets, how to bridge funds in, the difference between spot and perp trading, and how to place your first trade with a clear head.
