Patak explicitly mentions "Dexes like Hyperlid [Hyperliquid]" have "completely changed the game" by offering institutional-type leverage to retail traders with full on-chain visibility. In traditional finance (TradFi), leverage is opaque; in DeFi, it is transparent. As traders demand better risk management tools and 24/7 liquidity to hedge against exogenous shocks, volume and liquidity will migrate from opaque legacy systems to high-performance decentralized exchanges (DEXs). Long next-generation DEX infrastructure that enables transparent leverage. Regulatory crackdowns on high-leverage platforms or smart contract exploits.

"Dexes like Hyperliquid... have completely changed the game." Volumes are shifting to decentralized perps because they offer transparency on leverage that TradFi/CEXs cannot. As traders demand transparency post-FTX and post-market crashes, volume is structurally migrating to high-performance on-chain perp engines. Hyperliquid is capturing this "DeFi Derivatives" market share. LONG. It is the infrastructure play for the "return of the degens" and transparent leverage. Smart contract risk or regulatory crackdowns on DeFi interfaces.
