What is Elysium
Elysium is a general-purpose, high-performance L2 for Hyperliquid built by Kinetiq. It settles to HyperEVM, uses HYPE as gas, and is designed around 100 ms canonical blocks with standard EVM tooling.
A HYPE-powered launchpad
Elysium Pad brings three workflows together: create a token, choose its first trading pair, and fund your EVM wallet from Solana. The interface is designed to make each step visible before you sign a transaction.
HYPE is the gas token
HYPE is Elysium’s native gas asset end to end. The canonical bridge is described as moving HYPE 1:1 from HyperEVM, without a wrapper asset or a new gas token.
