Hyperliquid reportedly rejected a $1 billion investment term from a certain VC in early 2024.
Odaily reported that Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan and his team members recently participated in an exclusive interview with Colossos magazine.
During the interview, Jeff revealed that in January 2024, he had talks with potential investors. At the time, Jeff made it clear that he would only consider investment terms with a valuation of 1 billion USD. When an investor accepted this valuation, Jeff spent a weekend seriously reflecting, but ultimately decided to decline.
Hyperliquid's other co-founder, iliensinc (who manages the funds), and other team members found it difficult to accept at the time. Iliensinc had already engaged in two weeks of fundraising negotiations with investors. When Jeff called the fund, they could hardly believe it, thinking he must have accepted terms from another institution.
Jeff replied with an analogy: "Hyperliquid is not a company, but a protocol. 'Neutrality' has been the central concept from the very beginning. If Bitcoin had raised venture capital back in the day, it wouldn't be what it is today—the entire value proposition would have been destroyed."

Hyperliquid founder Jeff was once followed into an elevator, after which he relocated both his office and residence and hired bodyguards.
Odaily reported that Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan recently gave an exclusive interview to Colossos magazine. During the interview, Jeff and another co-founder of the company, iliensinc, discussed issues related to personal safety.
iliensinc revealed that Jeff is the only member of the team who does not use a pseudonym. Hyperliquid’s office was initially located in a co-working space in the financial district, but as Jeff’s reputation grew, public attention towards them increased. At first, there were just people watching, some trying to recognize Jeff’s face; later, strangers began approaching and striking up conversations; eventually, someone followed him into the elevator of his apartment building. As a result, Hyperliquid moved to a quieter location—a building where no one would think to look for them.
Jeff himself also moved to a safer residence, hired bodyguards, and is accompanied by two private security personnel whenever he goes out. iliensinc regularly trains team members on how to respond if strangers ask about their place of work.

Twin3 launches Web4 Personal Agent Soul Protocol, testnet officially goes live
According to ChainCatcher, Twin3 has proposed a soul-based digital identity infrastructure oriented towards the Agent economy. Its core concept is that everyone possesses a "digital body"—human identity, personality, and experience are captured onchain through a 256-dimensional Soulbound Token.
Based on this digital identity, users can deploy personal AI agents to join the Agentic ecosystem and participate in automated economic collaboration, turning real human experiences into RWA assets that can be authenticated and transferred.
