The HyperCore precompile
What changes when Elysium contracts can read Hyperliquid directly.
Kinetiq is shipping a HyperCore read precompile in an ArbOS upgrade about four weeks after Elysium mainnet. It lets an Elysium contract read Hyperliquid's order books, oracle, mark and spot prices directly, at HyperCore block granularity, attested by the sequencer.
What it means for ROPES
| Today (keeper) | With the precompile |
|---|---|
| A keeper reads Hyperliquid's API and carries the price on-chain | RopeMarket reads the price itself |
| Trust in the relay, bounded by sample windows and the audit | No relay to trust |
| Trading is operator-only to stop relay front-running | Trading opens to everyone |
| The keeper strikes and settles | Anyone can strike and settle, with the price read on-chain |
After that, Elysium's CoreWriter keeper lane lets the vault hedge its net exposure on HyperCore, so it can offer deeper rounds without carrying more directional risk.
