Problem Statement & Market Context
2.1 Frictions in Today’s DEX Experience
Despite major progress, traders and LPs still face predictable pain points:
Execution drift & failed swaps in volatility. On many chains, quotes go stale before confirmation; tight slippage causes reverts, while looser slippage risks worse fills. HyperSui addresses this with continuously refreshing quotes, explicit slippage/price-impact controls, and a review step before signing.
Unclear routes and hidden costs. Users rarely see why a given path was chosen. HyperSui surfaces the route and minimizes total cost = price impact + fees by routing across available pools, with guidance when no viable route exists.
LP returns that don’t match expectations. Fee income depends on actual volume, and impermanent loss (IL) is real; APR readouts often mislead without context. HyperSui explains IL plainly and shows APR as an indicative, data-derived metric based on recent volume/TVL.
Security & phishing uncertainty. Look-alike tokens and fake frontends persist. HyperSui standardizes safe imports, emphasizes verified addresses, and never requests custody approvals.
2.2 Why Sui (Network Rationale vs. Alternatives)
DEX UX lives and dies on fresh quotes, predictable finality, and low/stable gas. Sui’s design is aligned with that:
Parallelized execution lets independent swaps and LP updates process concurrently, improving app responsiveness during load.
Fast, predictable finality keeps portfolio balances and positions in sync shortly after approval, reducing user confusion and re-quotes.
Low, steady gas enables viable small trades, frequent rebalances, and reward claims without eroding returns—making strategies economical that would be unworkable on expensive networks.
In practice, these properties produce a DEX that feels immediate—quotes refresh in real time, confirmations land quickly, and liquidity management doesn’t stall during volatile windows.
2.3 Target Users & Primary Use Cases
Active Traders: Want predictable execution and transparency on price impact, route, minimum received, and gas before signing. HyperSui's review panel and live quotes directly target this need.
Liquidity Providers (LPs): Seek fee yield with clear IL trade-offs and realistic APRs; prefer tools that make adding/removing liquidity and claiming rewards simple, with low gas overhead.
Builders/Integrators: Need dependable routing, public contract references, and deep-link patterns to compose swaps inside wallets, bots, and partner UIs (covered later in the Developer Guide).
2.4 Positioning of $HYPESUI
$HYPESUI exists to improve product usage, not to govern it: trading-fee rebates, boosts for LP/staking rewards, and gated campaigns/advanced features (e.g., analytics, higher API limits, priority routing controls). Emissions are finite and tuned over time to favor real usage and protocol health. No governance rights.
2.5 Development Stage & Funding Context
HyperSui is under active development. Proceeds from the current presale are allocated to product engineering, audits, and operations required to reach and harden mainnet. Parameters, timelines, and interfaces may evolve; changes will be communicated transparently in the public changelog and official channels. (See Sections Operations & Transparency and Presale & TGE for details.)
