NextIntegration of MEV into the Staking Pool & High-Level Architecture

Last updated 17 days ago

HyperFlash is a next-generation staking protocol on HyperEVM that combines Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) with Maximum Extractable Value (MEV) strategies. Its core purpose is to let HYPE token holders stake their tokens and receive a liquid staking token (called flashHYPE) while capturing additional yield from MEV opportunities. This means users earn regular staking rewards plus a share of MEV profits, all through a transparent and fair mechanism. By integrating MEV extraction into a liquid staking pool, HyperFlash aims to boost yields for stakers and improve the overall fairness of value distribution in the network. In short, HyperFlash turns the traditionally wasted or centralized MEV revenue into extra rewards for the community of stakers.

When you stake HYPE through HyperFlash, the protocol mints appropiate amount of flashHYPE tokens to your address. Under the hood, your HYPE is then pooled and delegated to a selection of HyperEVM validators. These validators run the network and earn the usual block rewards for validating and securing HyperEVM. Because flashHYPE represents your stake, it entitles you to your share of those rewards.

As validators earn rewards (both block rewards and MEV income), the value of flashHYPE increases. HyperFlash uses a non-rebasing mechanism for flashHYPE, which means that flashHYPE will increase in price relative to HYPE over time.

This approach makes receiving rewards seamless, your flashHYPE simply becomes more valuable over time. Liquid staking thus abstracts the complexity of running a validator or locking tokens: users simply hold flashHYPE and earn.

Why hold flashHYPE?

FlashHYPE charges 0% commission on the native HYPE staking reward while earning MEV profits and points, making it one of the best yield-bearing assets in the entire HyperEVM. Additionally, flashHYPE is a LST, allowing its users to participate in DeFi compositions, such as lending protocols for additional rewards. Learn more at:
