VICTORIA, Seychelles, Feb. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BitMEX, one of the safest exchanges, announced today the launch of Hyperliquid Copy Trading, giving its users the ability to copy the best Hyperliquid perps traders. The release allows traders to enjoy the best of both worlds, combining access to Hyperliquid’s best traders with the user experience and safety of the BitMEX platform.

Users who navigate to BitMEX’s Copy Trading Marketplace will see a Hyperliquid sub–tab. This displays a leaderboard of the top Hyperliquid traders that they can copy or reverse copy trade. Positions are automatically opened on BitMEX, replicating the strategy of the Hyperliquid trader in question. Each Hyperliquid trader is ranked by metrics such as PnL, Drawdown, Win Ratio, and AUM (Assets Under Management), making it easy to identify top performing traders.

BitMEX CEO Stephan Lutz said: “BitMEX pioneered the perpetual swap, which has since become the industry standard for futures trading. The launch of Hyperliquid Copy Trading completes the circle, bringing the alpha available on the world’s leading PerpDEX to BitMEX users and incorporating it into their existing workflow.”

Up to five Hyperliquid traders can be copied simultaneously using BitMEX’s Copy Trading Marketplace, with users able to customize their preferred risk management settings for each, such as by implementing Take Profits and Stop Loss. Choosing a Copy Leader that suits their needs allows them to automate their crypto derivatives trading and make more informed decisions.

To celebrate the launch, BitMEX is offering a 100,000 USDT prize pool for eligible users who trade Copy Trade on their platform. Additional educational resources and product guides are available through the BitMEX website and blog.

CORRECTING and REPLACING – BitMEX Report Finds Crypto Perpetuals Enter Post-Yield Era

In a release issued under the same headline earlier today by BitMEX, please note that the link to the blog in the ninth paragraph has changed. The corrected release follows:

VICTORIA, Seychelles, Jan. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BitMEX, one of the safest exchanges, today released its end–of–year research report, “State of Crypto Perpetual Swaps 2025,” outlining five core insights that defined a turbulent year for the global crypto derivatives market. The report examines how structural stress, liquidity shocks and the breakdown of once–reliable trading strategies reshaped perpetual swaps in 2025.

According to the report, the most significant event of the year was the Oct. 10 to 11 market crash, which triggered an estimated $20 billion liquidation cascade. BitMEX analysis shows that auto–deleveraging mechanisms across multiple exchanges disrupted delta–neutral strategies, forcing professional market makers to reduce liquidity and leaving order books at their thinnest levels since 2022.

“2025 marked a turning point where market structure mattered more than market direction,” said Stephan Lutz, CEO of BitMEX. “The events of October showed that even sophisticated, historically neutral strategies can fail when exchange risk engines are stressed, and that resilience now depends on transparent systems and disciplined risk management.”

The report also finds that funding rate arbitrage, once considered a reliable source of passive yield, became increasingly crowded. As exchange–native delta–neutral products expanded, funding rates compressed sharply, with yields falling toward 4 percent and often below prevailing U.S. Treasury rates by mid–year.

Beyond market mechanics, the report highlights a growing trust divide between fair matching exchanges and so–called B–Book platforms. BitMEX researchers observed multiple incidents in which profitable traders faced trade reversals or account restrictions under “abnormal trading” clauses, reinforcing the importance of understanding counterparty risk.

“Where traders choose to execute has become as important as the strategy itself,” Lutz said. “As derivatives markets mature, participants are demanding venues that prioritize fair matching, clear rules and accountability, particularly during periods of market stress.”

The report also examines the rise of perpetual decentralized exchanges, noting increased innovation alongside new vulnerabilities such as targeted liquidation attacks and oracle manipulation. At the same time, BitMEX identifies emerging product categories, including equity perpetuals and funding rate trading, as signs of continued evolution in the derivatives landscape. Earlier this week, it launched Equity Perps, giving traders 24/7 access to 10 US stocks and indices.

Looking ahead, BitMEX concludes that the era of easy yield has ended, but that innovation in product design and market structure is accelerating. The firm expects continued convergence between crypto and traditional markets, with derivatives increasingly used to access global assets on a 24/7 basis.

The full “State of Crypto Perpetual Swaps 2025” report is available on the BitMEX blog.
