How to Connect Hyperliquid

Updated July 12, 2026

Hyperliquid is the most popular DEX on Fomoed. It supports two connection methods:

Method 1: Connect Wallet (Recommended)

This is the easiest way — your browser wallet handles everything automatically.

  1. Select Hyperliquid in the bot setup wizard and click Connect Wallet.
  2. Your MetaMask (or Rabby) will prompt you to connect — approve the connection.
  3. Fomoed generates a secure agent wallet that can only place trades on your behalf.
  4. Sign the Agent Approval message in MetaMask — this authorizes the agent wallet on Hyperliquid.
  5. Sign the Builder Fee Approval message — this is a one-time 0.01% fee approval (built into exchange fees, not extra).
  6. Your bot is ready to trade. Your funds stay in your wallet at all times.
Wallet requirement: You must have funds deposited on Hyperliquid before connecting. Make sure your wallet is on the Arbitrum network.

Method 2: API Private Key

Use this if you prefer to manage API keys manually, or if you don't have a browser wallet extension.

  1. Go to app.hyperliquid.xyz/API.
  2. Click Generate API Private Key to create a new API wallet.
  3. Copy your Wallet Address (your main wallet, starts with 0x).
  4. Copy the API Private Key (the generated key, NOT your main wallet's private key).
  5. Enter both in the bot setup wizard under the Private Key tab.
Important: The API Private Key is different from your main wallet's private key. The API wallet can only trade — it cannot withdraw funds. Never share your main wallet's private key with anyone.
