Hyperliquid said that HIP-4 (Outcome Markets) will be the first to go live on the testnet in an upcoming upgrade, and will ultimately support permissionless deployment. Deployers must stake 500k HYPE tokens and may be penalized and have funds seized due to unclear market definitions or incorrect settlement. Validators will determine standardized market templates through voting; deployers can create prediction markets based on the templates and set up to a 50% fee split. The official said that the number of events tradable in prediction markets far exceeds spot and perpetual contracts, making Outcome Markets an important direction for long-term growth.

HIP-4 introduces a permissionless prediction market to Hyperliquid, with validator-voting templates determined by votes, and deployers can take up to 50% of the fees. This economic model is designed in a really interesting way. However, if the market definition is unclear, it could be subject to forfeiture and penalties—so risk control still needs to be thorough. The official says the number of events is far more than perpetual contracts; it feels like you could bet on the World Cup, elections, or similar events. The community should have a lot of fun with it.

The events that the market can trade are indeed far more than in spot contracts; in the long run, this direction has real potential, but the 500k HYPE staking and forfeiture mechanism isn’t very friendly to retail users.

The threshold for staking 500k HYPE is really not low.
