# FAQ

## General

<details>

<summary>What is Hyperlynx?</summary>

A self-custodial spot DEX on HyperEVM — swaps, concentrated liquidity, and tokenized stocks. See [Welcome](broken://pages/5f8ad6ff1862497419462b3ad922ce2fb944e95f).

</details>

<details>

<summary>What chain is it on?</summary>

HyperEVM (chain 999). Gas is paid in HYPE.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is it custodial?</summary>

No. You connect a wallet you control. Hyperlynx never holds your keys or funds.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is the team doxxed?</summary>

No — Hyperlynx is anon-built. The protocol is designed so you don't have to trust the team: everything that matters settles on-chain where you can verify it. See [Safety & self-custody](broken://pages/f1e5ec7168da2c9f78c2a6b34aa1ae3e130a709e).

</details>

## Trading

<details>

<summary>What does a swap cost?</summary>

A pool fee (0.01% / 0.30% / 1.00% depending on the pair) plus HyperEVM gas in HYPE. See [Spot swaps](broken://pages/dea08cf0c6e27f120ba1541e90299c53a0a7c9b4).

</details>

<details>

<summary>What are tokenized stocks?</summary>

On-chain tokens that track equities, tradable like any other token, live from day one. See [Tokenized stocks](broken://pages/b937ca3ae7050e66c2205a61498fbaef78154e26).

</details>

<details>

<summary>Are perps live?</summary>

Not yet — perps are coming soon. Spot, liquidity, and tokenized stocks are live now.

</details>

## The Hunt

<details>

<summary>How do I earn points?</summary>

Trade, provide in-range liquidity, and refer. See [How to earn](broken://pages/5e27a6735cc47a2e9e71a7c450ca867e5e113413).

</details>

<details>

<summary>What's the airdrop?</summary>

30% of supply — 300,000,000 $LYNX — is committed to points. Conversion is share-based and the per-point value is revealed at TGE.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Why can't I see how much my points are worth?</summary>

The conversion rate and network total stay sealed until TGE — so points can't be farmed against a known number. You always see your own rank and tier.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What is Genesis?</summary>

The first month: a 2× points multiplier for everyone, from launch. It only happens once.

</details>

## $LYNX

<details>

<summary>Can I buy $LYNX now?</summary>

No. It generates at TGE (\~Q4 2026). The only way in beforehand is earning points. Anyone selling "$LYNX" today is not real.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What's yLYNX?</summary>

Staked $LYNX that earns the protocol's fee share and auto-compounds. See [yLYNX & staking](broken://pages/335b33c532e8a9bc560771011cb236390a2024a0).

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is there a lock on the airdrop?</summary>

No vesting, no lock, no penalty. Claim full at TGE, to liquid $LYNX or straight into yLYNX. See [Claiming](broken://pages/c77c3791ea342dddedb9961794112750f242444c).
