Hyperliquid is getting high-performance 100ms blocks with Elysium

Elysium is a high-performance L2 for Hyperliquid built by Kinetiq. Elysium settles to HyperEVM, uses HYPE as gas, has fast 100ms blocks and out-of-the-box EVM tooling. 

HyperEVM is deliberately constrained. Its small blocks carry 3M gas every second (30M gas only on 60-second big blocks), which keeps activity composing with HyperCore but leaves little room for sustained high-frequency activity on the EVM itself.

Elysium supplies the throughput that workload needs: a 300 Mgas/s execution target at 100 ms blocks, roughly two orders of magnitude more gas per second than HyperEVM. It does this without leaving the Hyperliquid ecosystem. Assets, settlement, and market structure all stay Hyperliquid-native. This allows Elysium to perform well for high-frequency trading and AMMs as the flagship tenants.

Where Trading Occurs, Saffron enables Upfront Fixed Yield

Saffron is therefore deploying to the Elysium mainnet, bringing its market for upfront LP income to the Hyperliquid ecosystem. With Uniswap launching on Elysium, the expansion is designed to give liquidity providers a choice beyond collecting trading fees as they arrive: exchange a defined period of future fee income for a payment at the start.

For individual LPs, fixed upfront yield transforms path-dependent LP risk into a set of predictable outcomes, and unlocks new capital efficient hedging strategies.

Liquidity providers get a fixed return regardless of trading volume. No setup time, no DAO votes, no governance token locks, and no bribes required. For token projects, this yield opportunity adds on-chain utility for the token, and upfront LP fees create consistent returns.

“Interesting”, said 0xOmnia from Elysium.

The expansion will connect Saffron’s fixed-income vault model with a new Hyperliquid ecosystem, opening opportunities for liquidity providers, options builders and token creators.

Saffron is Providing Yield Opportunities for Montra Token Launches

Elysium supports a wide ecosystem of protocols, one of which is the launchpad Montra, “The house of all launches on Elysium”.

Using Saffron, creators can offer high APRs on their token, and further incentivize on-chain liquidity. As part of the Saffron expansion into Elysium, Saffron has been integrated directly with Montra, ensuring a seamless user experience. Bringing high yield opportunities and utility to all tokens launched on Elysium.
