HIP-3 builder perps are Hyperliquid-scoped markets with their own route family. Use /v1/hyperliquid/hip3/* when the symbol carries a builder prefix, such as km:US500, or when the product needs builder-perp history, depth, funding, OI, CVD, liquidations, oracle context, or L4/order-level data. For coverage windows and buying context, start with the HIP-3 historical data provider page.

Symbol Pattern

HIP-3 symbols commonly use a builder prefix, for example:

First Request

Common Work

Builder-perp market history

Pull bounded windows of trades, candles, funding, OI, or depth.

Venue selection

Keep HIP-3 market routing explicit in your client.

Symbol Handling

Preserve the builder prefix in stored records and generated code. A value such as km:US500 is not the same kind of instrument as a core Hyperliquid BTC symbol, even though both live under the Hyperliquid top-level venue. Store venue_family=hip3 or an equivalent field when you persist results. HIP-3 jobs often need the same data families as core perps: order books, trades, candles, funding, open interest, CVD, liquidation events, liquidation levels, and freshness. HIP-3 also exposes builder/oracle routes such as /v1/hyperliquid/hip3/oracle/external-price/{symbol} and /v1/hyperliquid/hip3/oracle/discovery-bounds/{symbol}. The difference is namespace and symbol semantics. Use Endpoint Reference for exact routes and parameters, then check Data quality before exporting or modeling long windows.

Aliases and historical continuity

Similar tickers or namespaces are not presumed predecessors. Do not stitch histories across distinct market IDs. REST routes accept xyz:WTIOIL as an alias for canonical xyz:CL; both names refer to the same market identity. Use xyz:CL for discovery and coverage checks. This is one same-identity REST alias, not a general alias or predecessor registry. Do not assume this alias works for WebSocket subscriptions or Data Catalog exports.

Analytics And Oracle Routes

Use these routes when a builder-perp workflow needs cumulative volume delta, projected liquidation levels, pending trigger-order clustering around price, or HIP-3 oracle state beside trades, candles, funding, OI, and depth. Both level families also serve /history variants with cursor pagination; snapshots are retained from 2026-07-27.

HIP-3 Request Checklist

Use this checklist before a HIP-3 symbol enters code, tests, fixtures, or an agent prompt.

Symbol Encoding Rules

Do not URL-decode the colon in a way that changes the symbol, and do not substitute a core /v1/hyperliquid/* route because the market looks like a perp. If a user gives a namespaced symbol without a venue, HIP-3 is the first family to inspect. In generated code, comments, logs, and tests, keep the prefix and leave fixture symbols namespaced; a test that strips the prefix weakens the routing rule it is meant to cover. Use km:US500 as the default example unless a user names another builder market. Open Venue coverage for family selection, Markets for public market-family context, Hyperliquid REST API for core perps, or Best HIP-3 Data API for the buying-context page.
