Who should choose Hyperliquid

Hyperliquid fits traders who want low costs on derivatives and prefer a non-custodial setup. Its futures fees, 0.015% maker and 0.045% taker, sit below WEEX’s, and its spot fees are lower too. KYC is optional, so you can start trading without handing over identity documents. It also carries 112 tokenized stocks and prediction markets, neither of which WEEX offers. Max leverage is 40x, which is plenty for most people without pushing into extreme territory.

Who should choose WEEX

WEEX suits traders who want the broadest choice of coins. Its 2,062 spot coins and 569 futures coins far exceed what Hyperliquid carries, so if you chase newer or smaller tokens you’ll find more here. Leverage reaches 400x, much higher than Hyperliquid, which appeals to aggressive futures traders who accept the added risk. KYC is optional. Its spot fees, 0.1% maker and 0.1% taker, run higher than Hyperliquid’s, so heavy spot traders pay more.

Verdict

Pick Hyperliquid for cheaper futures, tokenized stocks, prediction markets and a non-custodial account. Pick WEEX for the widest range of coins and much higher leverage. Neither holds a MiCA licence, so weigh that if you’re in the EU.
