Bitget Wallet has officially rolled out HYPE Staking, a significant enhancement to its Earn portfolio, which facilitates wallet-native staking through a validator managed by the Hyperliquid Foundation. This new feature allows users to stake HYPE tokens directly within the wallet, earning protocol-level rewards that accumulate daily.
The innovative design of HYPE Staking ensures that rewards are sourced from an official foundation validator, which helps maintain stability in the staking yield and reduces volatility. This is particularly appealing to users seeking predictable returns in a cautious market environment, rather than engaging in short-term speculative activities.
HYPE Staking is seamlessly integrated into the Bitget Wallet, meaning users can stake their tokens without the need to resort to external platforms or complex desktop workflows. Users can initiate staking immediately, with rewards beginning to accrue after a one-day lock period. Following this, they can request to unstake, which is subject to a seven-day cooldown, after which both the initial stake and any accrued rewards are returned to the wallet.
Strengthening Hyperliquid Integration
This launch further solidifies the relationship between Bitget Wallet and the Hyperliquid ecosystem. In addition to staking, the wallet offers unified access to Hyperliquid”s extensive on-chain infrastructure, which includes functionalities like token swaps, perpetual trading, cross-chain transfers, and interactions with HyperEVM-based decentralized applications (dApps). Users can conduct spot trades and access on-chain perpetuals with professional execution, all without leaving the wallet, thus minimizing friction between trading, earning, and participating in the ecosystem.
As part of its broader staking initiatives, Bitget Wallet has seen a significant uptick in demand for its staking offerings, which span multiple blockchain networks. The wallet has recorded quarterly subscription volumes nearing $200 million in 2025, reflecting a tenfold increase since the start of the year. This surge indicates a growing preference among users for staking and stablecoin-based yields as effective tools for capital efficiency.
Jamie Elkaleh, CMO of Bitget Wallet, emphasized the evolving nature of on-chain markets, stating, “As on-chain markets mature, staking and trading are converging into a single user journey rather than isolated activities.” He underscored the company”s commitment to making wallets the primary interface for this transition, enabling users to earn, trade, and engage with leading ecosystems like Hyperliquid in a manner that is transparent and sustainable.
Expanding Staking Initiatives
In addition to enhancing its Hyperliquid integration, Bitget Wallet is scaling its staking capabilities across other major blockchain networks. Notably, on the Solana network, assets staked through the wallet”s self-operated validator nodes have surpassed 100,000 SOL. This milestone illustrates the growing acceptance of wallet-native staking as users increasingly prioritize self-custody and long-term involvement in core blockchain ecosystems.
