HYENA vs Spark

HyENA is a capital-efficient perpetual DEX built on Hyperliquid, using the HIP-3 Builder-Deployed Perpetuals framework to launch and manage markets independently. HIP-3 enables faster listings, custom market configurations, and consistent performance while inheriting Hyperliquid’s security and transparency. Positions are margined in USDe, allowing traders to earn rewards as they open and maintain exposure, with HyENA developed by the Based team—the highest-revenue app in the Hyperliquid ecosystem.

SparkLend is MakerDAO’s permissionless lending front‑end that pipes DAI liquidity directly from the Maker core vault into isolated lending markets. Because the backend uses D3M credit lines, borrowers enjoy below‑market rates that float with the DAI Savings Rate. Since launch on Ethereum mainnet in May 2023 Spark TVL has oscillated between 300‑600 million DAI and is governed by MKR Executive Votes.
