Is it worth it?
- The discount only matters if you trade a lot. At base taker fees, $1M of volume costs $450; a 10% discount saves $45.
- Staked HYPE is exposed to price swings, so the token's price risk can outweigh fee savings.
- Unstaking has a waiting period, so the HYPE isn't instantly available. Check the current period in the app.
Combine it with other discounts
The staking discount works alongside volume tiers and the 4% referral discount. If you haven't signed up yet, use a referral code first.
