The expansion of institutional crypto infrastructure continues as platforms integrate decentralized markets. Ripple, a blockchain-based enterprise solutions provider, announced on Feb. 4 that Ripple Prime added support for Hyperliquid, broadening institutional access to onchain derivatives liquidity.
The announcement states:
“This integration enables institutional clients to access onchain derivatives liquidity while cross-margining decentralized finance ( DeFi) exposures with all other asset classes supported by Ripple Prime, including digital assets, FX, fixed income, OTC swaps, and cleared derivatives.”
“By supporting Hyperliquid, Ripple Prime continues its mission to bridge traditional finance and decentralized markets, offering institutions seamless access to DeFi venues within a unified, capital-efficient prime brokerage framework,” Ripple further shared.
International CEO Michael Higgins stated, “At Ripple Prime, we are excited to continue leading the way in merging decentralized finance with traditional prime brokerage services, offering direct support to trading, yield generation and a wider range of digital assets. This strategic extension of our prime brokerage platform into DeFi will enhance our clients’ access to liquidity, providing the greater efficiency and innovation that our institutional clients demand.” His remarks underline the firm’s intention to combine decentralized liquidity with institutional-grade infrastructure rather than treating DeFi as a separate trading silo.

Through the addition of Hyperliquid, Ripple Prime now provides institutional participants with direct connectivity to a high-performance decentralized derivatives protocol inside a single multi-asset prime brokerage environment. This structure allows firms to manage DeFi positions alongside digital assets, foreign exchange, fixed income products, over-the-counter swaps, and cleared derivatives under consolidated margining and centralized risk oversight. Ripple Prime highlights that the model preserves one counterparty relationship while improving capital efficiency across portfolios with diverse exposures.
The move reflects accelerating institutional engagement with decentralized derivatives venues, where onchain settlement and transparent liquidity increasingly complement established markets. Ripple’s broader strategy focuses on linking traditional finance with decentralized infrastructure while maintaining operational controls expected of global prime brokers. Founded in 2012, Ripple delivers blockchain-based enterprise solutions spanning payments, custody, liquidity, and treasury management, with its stablecoin RLUSD and the digital asset XRP supporting the movement, storage, exchange, and management of value across its platform.
