HyperX Shines at Malaysia Blockchain Week, Deepens Southeast Asia Strategy, and Accelerates Global DeFi Development

HyperX, the world’s first multi-chain aggregated on-chain derivatives trading platform, was recently invited to participate in Malaysia Blockchain Week, held in Kuala Lumpur. As the event’s exclusive invited exchange partner, HyperX engaged in in-depth discussions and presentations under the themes of multi-chain ecosystems, cross-chain trading, and regulatory evolution, drawing widespread attention from regulators, financial institutions, developers, and media across Southeast Asia.

Strengthening Southeast Asia Presence and Connecting to High-Growth Markets

Southeast Asia is rapidly emerging as one of the most vibrant digital asset markets globally, making it a strategic hotspot for blockchain projects. HyperX’s appearance at this high-level event underscores not only its forward-looking global vision but also its deep understanding of the region’s user demographics, asset preferences, and regulatory climate. 

During the event, the HyperX team held extensive discussions with projects, funds, and KOLs from Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam, and beyond. In a key announcement, HyperX revealed that it will officially launch its Global Ecosystem Partnership Program in the second half of 2025. The initiative will include: Validator node collaborations,User incentive schemes,Cross-chain asset integration.

Strategic partnerships for local education and community engagement

Showcasing Technical Breakthroughs to Build a Truly “Omni-Chain Derivatives Infrastructure”

As a featured exchange at the event, HyperX presented its cutting-edge cross-chain matching engine and liquidity aggregation system. Currently, the platform supports native asset interoperability and derivatives trading across 15 major blockchains, with plans to expand support for additional networks in the near future. 

Unlike centralized exchanges or single-chain DeFi protocols, HyperX is building an open, high-performance, and infinitely scalable multi-chain trading hub. Its core strengths include on-chain transparency, modular architecture, and regulatory traceability — enabling the global rollout of institutional-grade DeFi products.

Compliance-First Approach Driving Global Expansion

The head of the HyperX Foundation highlighted during the event that the platform has already obtained MSB and SEC registration in the United States, and is actively working on localized compliance strategies across Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Europe to ensure global users can interact with the platform in a safe, secure, and fully compliant manner. 

“Web3 requires more than speed and innovation — it demands compliance and accountability,” said the spokesperson. “HyperX is proud to lead the way in building a dual-engine model powered by technology and regulation.”

Looking Ahead: Evolving from Derivatives Platform to Global Financial Infrastructure

HyperX’s successful participation in Malaysia Blockchain Week marks a major step forward in building trust and credibility across Southeast Asia. It also paves the way for stronger global engagement from institutional partners, developers, and communities.

Next, HyperX will launch strategic ecosystem and capital expansion programs in Vietnam,Indonesia,Singapore, Abu Dhabi and U.S., continuing its mission to build a truly borderless, value-connected, on-chain financial infrastructure.
