4 ways to get an account with Hypernova.
$450 to $18,000 · $150 to $6,000 max loss · 80% split
The cheapest way in and the tightest leash. A 9% target against a 3% static max drawdown and a 3% daily loss, both enforced on live equity including open positions. A $100K account costs $400 and leaves $3,000 of total room that never widens, whatever you make. The docs also call this plan Precision. The firm publishes an 18.2% pass rate for it.
$500 to $20,000 · $300 to $12,000 max loss · 80% split
A 10% target against a 6% static max drawdown and a 3% daily loss. Twice the total room of Tight Risk for a little over twice the price. It is the tier the home page builder loads first. The docs also call it Conservative. The firm publishes a 20.2% pass rate for it.
$500 to $10,000 · $350 to $7,000 max loss · 80% split
A 10% target against a 7% static max drawdown and a 4% daily loss, the widest band anyone can buy off the page. It stops at $100K, so a $200K account is only available on the tighter tiers. The docs also call it Standard. The firm publishes a 30.6% pass rate for it, the highest of the three priced tiers.
$500 to $20,000 · $400 to $16,000 max loss · 80% split
A 10% target against an 8% static max drawdown and a 5% daily loss, the widest limits the rulebook sets out. Every fee in its schedule reads TBD and the tier is marked restricted to eligible users, which the firm defines as a verifiable record of disciplined performance, so nobody can buy it off the page. The docs also call it Aggressive. No pass rate is published for it.

What Rule Check reads when it calls this firm compatible or a conflict. Open one to read the rule in the firm’s own words.
“None. Trade during any market event.”
Only bots you built and run yourself, on one account.
“Automated strategies built and operated by the trader themselves on a single account are permitted.”
“Using third-party signals, copy trading services, or external sources to mirror positions into a Hypernova account.”
“Access to the Platform from a restricted jurisdiction - including by means of a VPN or other circumvention technology - is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate account termination and forfeiture of any pending payouts.”
“All markets stream prices 24/7, including weekends and holidays.”
“None. Hold positions over weekends — crypto markets are 24/7.”
“None. No cap on single-day profit as a percentage of total.”
“There is no minimum number of trading days. You can pass in a single trade.”
Any time you are flat and in profit, up to $10,000 of profits a day in closed alpha.
“Funded traders may request payouts at any time, subject to being in profit on their funded account.”
12 of the rules we read close an account outright. Read them before you pay.
The ranking cannot be bought. We do not earn anything from this firm. Not financial advice.
Funded account: passing the one step assessment funds an account at the same starting balance. The daily loss limit and the static max drawdown floor carry over unchanged. There is no profit target and no minimum trading days.
Timing: payouts are on demand at any hour, settled by smart contract in USDC on Arbitrum. The firm quotes the speed three ways: under 5 seconds on the payouts page, under 0.02 seconds of contract processing in the rulebook, then a measured 6.2 second average on the home page and the stats page. The account has to be flat first, no open positions and no open orders. After a payout clears you have to open and close another position before the next one can be submitted.
Minimum: none beyond being in profit. The limit runs the other way: while Hypernova is in closed alpha, payouts are capped at $10,000 of profits per user per day. The stats page shows the largest payout to date at $9.0K against a $1,070 average.
Split: 80% to the trader, 20% to the firm, flat at every account size and every risk tier. The published formula pays the full profit out, so the balance returns to the starting balance after a withdrawal and the drawdown floor stays where it was. The day you take a payout, the amount is added to your daily loss budget so the withdrawal itself cannot breach you.
Method: USDC to the embedded Arbitrum wallet the platform creates at signup. Hypernova sponsors the gas, so no ETH is needed. From that wallet you can send the USDC to any exchange or external wallet on Arbitrum.
Holds: the firm says payouts are automated with one exception, a hold where sanctions or restricted jurisdiction rules require it. Identity verification through Sumsub must clear before a funded account is activated. No payout is available from an assessment account or a breached account.
Scaling: the docs describe a score driven ladder of increased funding, wider risk limits and monthly cash grants, then say the perks are still being defined and are not available yet. The rulebook calls improved splits a talent scaling programme that is coming soon.
Traders in these countries cannot open an account here. Firms word these lists as “including but not limited to”, so read it as the floor, not the whole of it.
By location, residence or nationality. The terms bar any jurisdiction under comprehensive OFAC sanctions and name Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Syria and Russia, with other sanctioned countries added as they arise, so this list is not closed. The FAQ adds that identity documents issued by Cuba, Iran, North Korea or Syria cannot be verified, which blocks funding. Using a VPN to get in from a restricted country is grounds for termination and forfeiture of pending payouts. Read on hypernova.xyz/docs, 23 Oct 2026.

Payouts are automated with a single exception the firm states openly, a hold where sanctions or restricted jurisdiction rules require one. Reaching the platform from a restricted country, including through a VPN, forfeits payouts that are already pending, so the hold and the forfeiture can both land after the money is earned.
The daily floor is recalculated at 00:00 UTC from the previous day's closing balance, so a losing day leaves a smaller allowance the next morning. It is calculated from closed balance but enforced on equity, which means an open position counts against a limit that was fixed before the position existed.
The breach price shown on the chart is worked out from current equity and ignores the fee charged when the position closes, so a stop placed at that level can settle on the wrong side of the floor. Hourly funding on open positions counts in equity as well, so a position held overnight feeds the same calculation.
The floor is set once from the starting balance and does not move for the life of the account. On a Tight Risk $100,000 account it sits at $97,000 for ever, which is $3,000 of total room. A payout pays the whole profit out and returns the balance to the starting figure, so the buffer you built resets to nothing every time you withdraw.
Opposing positions on the same instrument across two Hypernova accounts are prohibited. So are opposing positions between a Hypernova account and an account at any third party firm. The firm cannot see the other firm's book, so this is enforced on whatever its own monitoring infers from your trades.
The home page FAQ answers the real money question with a flat no. Orders are filled by Hypernova's engine priced against Hyperliquid data and are never routed to Hyperliquid or any other venue. The same answer says the firm may use trader generated signals to trade its central book, with an in app notice if yours are used.
