#永续合约市场 Seeing this clarification from Hyperliquid, I am reminded of some recent events in the perpetual contract market. The market is always easily swayed by panic emotions; when an accusation appears, everyone rushes to withdraw funds. But I looked at their point-by-point responses—covering USDC total supply, oracle mechanisms, and liquidation logic—each one points to specific on-chain data.
This reminds me of an important principle: in high-risk areas like perpetual contracts, transparency and verifiability are truly the moat. It’s not that a perfect platform is necessarily safe, but those willing to put system status in the sunlight and allow users to verify at least provide us with a basis for rational judgment.
But I also have to be honest—perpetual contracts are inherently high-leverage games, and no matter how transparent the platform is, that doesn’t change. So rather than obsessing over whether a platform is 100% trustworthy, it’s better to ask yourself a few questions: How important is this money to me? How much loss can I tolerate? Is my position reasonable?
True safety never comes from a platform’s clarification, but from your own position management and long-term mindset. In perpetual contracts, even the best system can’t protect those all-in gamblers. I suggest treating perpetual contracts as a very small part of your overall asset allocation, not the core. That way, even if you stumble, it won’t damage your fundamentals.
