Derive vs Hyperliquid

Derive V3 Options is the options market of Derive V3, the latest version of the self-custodial derivatives exchange formerly known as Lyra. V3 runs on a zkVM exchange that settles trades on Ethereum: orders are matched on a central limit order book while positions, margin and settlement stay verifiable on-chain. Traders can buy and sell European options on major crypto assets with portfolio margin shared across options, perpetuals and spot, and market makers quote directly into the book.

The Hyperliquid Bridge settles deposits and withdrawals between Ethereum and Hyperliquid’s Layer‑2 exchange once two‑thirds of validator stake signs the transaction. A light‑client circuit batches proofs so users receive near‑instant credit on Hyperliquid while final settlement finality matches Ethereum’s L1. Since launch in February 2025, average bridge latency has been under 90 seconds with no recorded reorg incidents.
