Nansen expanded its agentic trading platform with the launch of Hyperliquid perpetuals trading, announced Tuesday. The integration bridges market intelligence and trading execution in a single AI-native environment. The launch follows strong growth in decentralized derivatives, with over $2 trillion in onchain perpetual trading volume recorded in Q1 2026, and Hyperliquid alone accounting for more than $625 billion.
Nansen Integrates AI-Driven Execution and Wallet Intelligence
The integration embeds one of the most active decentralized derivatives venues directly into Nansen's analytics and execution ecosystem. Nansen CEO Alex Svanevik stated the goal is to enable users to trade everything onchain with AI-driven insights, combining execution, analytics, and wallet intelligence on one platform.
"Hyperliquid has become one of the most important platforms in crypto. And what we're seeing is that it's not just crypto anymore; you're seeing equities, commodities, and tokenized indices all starting to move onchain," Svanevik said. "Traders want one place where they can get exposure to different assets, see who's winning onchain, and act on it. That's exactly what we're building towards at Nansen. Bringing Hyperliquid perps in is a step toward a world that allows investors to trade everything onchain with AI."
With Hyperliquid now embedded, Nansen enables users to move from discovery to execution while leveraging large-scale wallet intelligence, Smart Money tracking, and real-time market signals across more than 500 million labeled wallets.
