Gold-i Integrates with Hyperliquid – the First DeFi Exchange Integration into MatrixNET

WHY THIS MATTERS

The integration of Hyperliquid into Gold-i’s MatrixNET platform reflects the growing convergence between traditional trading infrastructure and decentralised finance. By enabling brokers, proprietary trading firms and fund managers to access on-chain derivatives liquidity through standard FIX connectivity, the integration lowers the operational barriers that have historically separated institutional trading systems from decentralised exchanges.

Gold-i, a global leader in FX and crypto trading technology, has integrated Hyperliquid into its MatrixNET liquidity management and distribution platform. This is the first decentralised (DeFi) exchange integration within MatrixNET, marking a significant milestone for Gold-i. 

Through standard FIX API connectivity, brokers, prop trading firms, and fund managers worldwide using Gold-i’s technology can now seamlessly access Hyperliquid’s decentralised exchange for perpetual futures and spot crypto trading, and stream this liquidity directly into MT5 or any other trading platform. 

By normalising order flow to meet Hyperliquid’s execution criteria, Gold-i ensures clients benefit from competitive pricing and strong depth at the top of book, while maintaining robust aggregation, smart routing, and risk controls. 

Tom Higgins, CEO and Founder, Gold-i said, “This was a complex implementation but a significant development for Gold-i, enabling us to offer our clients access to a market-leading DeFi exchange. Brokers, prop trading firms and fund managers using MatrixNET now have easy access to Hyperliquid’s on-chain derivatives liquidity. As interest in DeFi grows, Gold-i plans to support both centralised and decentralised liquidity venues, giving clients the benefit of flexibility, efficiency, and seamless multi-venue access.”

Gold-i’s MatrixNET, trusted by brokers, fund managers and crypto institutions worldwide, empowers users with a multitude of routing and aggregation methods and the ability to tailor execution models to suit the unique preferences of different client types. Amongst the many benefits, it enables institutional clients to access deep liquidity pools, achieve better prices, gain more clients and reduce toxic trading.

FF NEWS TAKE
Institutional trading infrastructure is gradually expanding to include decentralised liquidity venues alongside traditional exchanges.

Gold-i’s move to integrate a DeFi exchange into its liquidity distribution platform highlights how the boundaries between centralised and decentralised markets are beginning to blur. As institutional demand for digital asset exposure grows, technology providers that can bridge these ecosystems will play a key role in making DeFi liquidity accessible within familiar trading environments.
