Hyperliquid
an address, and no key at all
Hyperliquid has no API keys: its read endpoint authorises by wallet address, so this connection holds an address and no secret. Nothing here can sign.
What lands in the book
One honest number
and the rows that move it
- Equity
- $42,600.00
- Deposits this month
- $10,000.00
- Realised, fees and funding today
- +$184.30
- Counted once
- One balance serves perps margin and idle spot. We take the view that matches the portfolio value Hyperliquid shows you, unified or isolated.
- One row per movement
- Deposits, withdrawals and transfers are booked one row each, so you can see why the number moved.
- One row per day
- Realised profit, fees and funding as one row a day, rewritten while the day is still open.
- A price move is not a row
- An open position moving in price is not a transaction, and the balance already carries it.
What goes by itself
Read by address
and never a signature
- A deposit to HyperliquidOne row, a transfer
- Today's realised profit, fees, fundingOne row, rewritten until the day closes
- An open position movingNot a row; the balance carries it
- An order or a withdrawalNever: nothing here can sign
- Unsigned by design
- The endpoint Orla reads is unsigned, so nothing in this connection can sign a transaction.
- Why the number moved
- Every deposit, withdrawal and transfer has its row, so a change in equity has a reason beside it.
The credential
A public address
and that is the whole of it
- Address
- 0x4f…a21c
- Secret
- None
- Can sign
- No
- Already public
- You paste the address you trade from. That is public information already.
- No secret to keep
- There is nothing to encrypt, nothing to leak and nothing to rotate.
- Unsigned by design
- The endpoint it reads cannot sign, so this connection cannot move anything.
- No API keys there
- Hyperliquid has no API keys: its read endpoint authorises by wallet address.
Other exchanges
- Binance →
- Spot fills as two legs, fees on their own line, transfers joined to the wallet.
- Bybit →
- The same rows, with the key's permissions read before it is saved.
- OKX →
- Key, secret and passphrase, with the permission list read before any is saved.
- Coinbase →
- Fills, fees and transfers as transactions, rather than a balance that answers nothing when January comes.
- Kraken →
- Publishes no key permissions, so Orla asks the venue itself with two requests that cannot execute.
On autopilot
What goes by itself
and what still waits for you
Goes by itself
- A bill or a payout inside its budget in the mandate
- From Airwallex, PayPal or the account inside Orla
- An agent's card or API spend inside its cap
Waits for you
- A new payee, and bank details that changed
- Anything past a budget or a limit
- Every payment from Mercury, Slash, a Safe or a wallet you sign
The brakes above both
- $2,000 a payment and $10,000 a day until you change them
- Loosening a limit waits 24 to 72 hours
- One pause stops every payment at once
Questions
The questions people ask before they connect it
Do I have to give Orla an API key for Hyperliquid?
No, and there is none to give. Hyperliquid's read endpoint authorises by wallet address and is unsigned, so this connection holds a public address and no secret at all. Nothing in it can sign a transaction, and there is no key to rotate or leak.
Which balance does it show?
The one Hyperliquid shows you as portfolio value. Their unified account shares a balance between perps margin and idle spot, so adding the two together double counts it and taking the perps figure alone loses the rest. We take the view that matches their own screen, on unified and older isolated accounts alike.
Why do the rows not add up to the change in balance?
Because an open position moving in price is deliberately not booked as a row. A price move is not a transaction, and the mirrored balance already carries it. Deposits, withdrawals and transfers get a row each, and realised profit, fees and funding are booked as one row per day while that day is still open.
