Decentralized trading platform Hyperliquid will roll out an upgrade that activates portfolio margin for real trading accounts, letting traders offset risk across multiple positions and post a net collateral requirement instead of separate collateral for every trade.

The feature is set to move from pre-alpha testing to an alpha phase in the next network upgrade; the Telegram announcement did not provide the exact date. This change lets users support multiple positions with a smaller amount of capital, enabling more efficient deployment of funds and the ability to run larger and more complex positions.

Hyperliquid has already gained traction as a venue for round-the-clock price discovery, particularly over weekends when traditional markets are closed. Access to portfolio margin will be restricted to master accounts that have logged more than $5 million in weighted trading volume.
