Elysium: The Hyperliquid-Native Map
Most Elysium headlines are about Uniswap and Pump.fun. The more interesting list is the teams that only exist on Hyperliquid. We mapped 15 of them: each one has posted its own Elysium plans in the last few weeks.
What Elysium is
Elysium is the L2 that Kinetiq built for Hyperliquid. HYPE is the gas, blocks land every 100 ms, and it targets about 100x the gas per second of HyperEVM. Sequencer revenue is split three ways: 50% buys back and burns KNTQ, 25% goes to the apps that bring the traffic, 25% to the treasury.
Mainnet opens on November 9. Until then the network is open to partners only, and Elysium has warned users about unofficial tooling.

Also on day one
Uniswap, 0x, KyberSwap, Pump.fun, fomo and Banana Gun are launching on Elysium too. The big Hyperliquid DeFi names (Felix, HyperLend, Hyperbeat and others) have not announced Elysium plans yet, so for now the native ecosystem is mostly young 2026 teams: launchpads, DEXs, NFTs and terminals.
