# Best HIP-3 Data API

> 0xArchive returns HIP-3 builder-perp history with exact prefix:NAME symbols: order books, trades, funding, OI, liquidations, and L4, one key.

For HIP-3 builder-deployed perps, 0xArchive preserves the exact namespace, especially symbols shaped like `prefix:NAME`, and returns every order, trade, and fill as normalized JSON. One key covers order books, trades, funding, open interest, liquidations, and full order-level (L4) depth across 124 to 221 symbols.

HIP-3 is a Hyperliquid-scoped market family in 0xArchive, served under `/v1/hyperliquid/hip3`. It is not a third peer venue next to Hyperliquid and Lighter, and 0xArchive does not strip or recase the prefix.

## What One Key Returns

| HIP-3 need             | 0xArchive path                                                                                    | What you get                                                                |

## Why Teams Choose 0xArchive

HIP-3 implementations break at the namespace. HIP-3 symbols are case-sensitive, and a source, agent, or buyer that drops the builder prefix from a symbol shaped like `prefix:NAME` can silently point a backtest at the wrong market. 0xArchive keeps the prefix intact end to end, from the route to the response.

0xArchive returns each HIP-3 data family on its own route so coverage is explicit, not inferred from one successful endpoint. Order books, trades, funding, OI, liquidations, and L4 each have a route and a start date: trades since October 2025, book and OI since February 2026, and order-level depth with wallet attribution since March 2026. Liquidation routes can return valid empty pages, which is normal for a thin builder market and not an error to retry.

Every response carries a request ID and a freshness path you can check before the result feeds a backtest, agent workflow, export, or production job. Every order, trade, and fill. One API.

## Run One Route

```bash theme={"theme":"github-dark"}
curl "https://api.0xarchive.io/v1/hyperliquid/hip3/trades/km:US500?limit=1" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $OXARCHIVE_API_KEY"
```

## Evaluation Questions

<Steps>
  <Step title="Keep the builder prefix">
    Start with the exact symbol. HIP-3 symbols are case-sensitive, so preserve the `prefix:NAME` form before generating any call.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the data family">
    Check the route you need in [HIP-3 REST](/rest-api/hip3): order books, trades, funding, OI, liquidations, and L4 each have their own start date.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Gate the window">
    Run a `/v1/hyperliquid/hip3/freshness/km:US500` check before the result feeds a backtest, agent, export, or production job.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Next Step

Start with [HIP-3 REST](/rest-api/hip3), confirm the builder-prefixed symbol in [Venue coverage](/venue-coverage), then [compare plans](https://0xarchive.io/pricing?utm_source=docs\&utm_medium=referral\&utm_campaign=docs_referral\&utm_content=best_hip3_data_api).
