HL - How to Transfer Funds Already on Hyperliquid Directly to a Hardware Wallet Secured Hyperliquid Account
Important Note for US & UK users: Please ensure you have activated your VPN & set the location to Sydney, Australia prior to logging onto the Hyperliquid website.
The following guide is for anyone who has their HYPE or other assets in a Metamask or Coinbase wallet connected Hyperliquid account, and wants to transfer it to a more secure hardware wallet account.
This guide assumes that:
- You have already created a new Hyperliquid account with your hardware wallet
- You are logged into your Metamask or Coinbase wallet connected Hyperliquid account and have enabled trading
- If your HYPE was staked, you have unstaked it and moved it to Spot
- At the bottom of the Trade screen, you should see in your Spot Balance the HYPE or other asset that you have available to send to another account
- Click “Send”
- Enter the Arbitrum address of the hardware wallet account that you connected to Hyperliquid in 'Destination'.
- Ensure 'Spot Account' is selected if sending your previously staked HYPE
- Select the correct asset (in this case HYPE)
- Enter the amount you wish to send
- Click 'Send'
- Click 'I confirm'
- Click 'Send'
Note: Remember, this is a transfer between Hyperliquid accounts on the Hyperliquid L1.
That will trigger an approval in the connected wallet (Metamask or Coinbase wallet)
- Click 'Confirm'
The HYPE will now immediately disappear from the source account and appear in the destination account. The transfer has been instantaneous every time we’ve tested it.
