Hyper Unit acts as a tokenization bridge layer, allowing users to lock native L1 assets (BTC, ETH, SOL) and mint uAssets (uBTC, uETH, uSOL) on Hyperliquid L1 and HyperEVM. These uAssets can then be used across dApps for swaps, liquidity, and trading without exiting back to the original chains. The bridge process is lock → mint → use → burn → release, with guardians ensuring asset security.
Step-by-Step Bridge Guide
-
Open the Unit Dashboard and select your route (e.g., ETH → uETH on Hyperliquid).
-
Start with a small test deposit — lock BTC/ETH/SOL and save the tx-hash on L1.
-
Confirm the mint transaction on Hyperliquid and verify your uAsset balance.
-
Move uAssets into HyperEVM if needed and track balances via the explorer.
-
Test a round-trip: burn part of your uAsset to release the original L1 token.
-
Keep a Bridge Log with all tx-hashes + screenshots for proof.
Why It Matters
-
Use BTC/ETH/SOL natively inside the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
-
Save on fees & time compared to moving between multiple bridges.
-
Future incentives & integrations will likely reward active bridge users.
