Chainalysis announced on September 3, 2026 that it added support for HyperEVM, Hyperliquid’s Ethereum-compatible Layer 1, providing automatic coverage for the native HYPE token and newly minted ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens and enabling KYT, entity screening and Reactor investigations. The integration strengthens onchain security and compliance for crypto and DeFi token launches on Hyperliquid amid rising activity — including Arkham’s report that the Lazarus Group sold more than $30 million in bitcoin — supporting adoption and institutional monitoring of the ecosystem.

Chainalysis has added support for HyperEVM, the Ethereum-compatible smart contract environment on the Hyperliquid Layer 1, the blockchain analytics firm announced on September 3, 2026. The integration brings Chainalysis’s compliance and investigation tooling to Hyperliquid’s growing onchain ecosystem, letting customers monitor activity across the network’s native token and the applications deployed on top of it. The announcement is the latest chain-coverage expansion from the analytics firm, which routinely adds automatic token support for emerging networks.
Automatic Coverage for ERC-20 and ERC-721 Tokens
Support extends well beyond the native HYPE token. Chainalysis said it will automatically add coverage for new fungible and non-fungible tokens deployed on HyperEVM that follow major standards such as ERC-20 and ERC-721. Because fresh tokens are minted on the network daily, the firm’s platform now ingests them without manual intervention, closing the gap between a token’s launch and its availability for screening. Customers can run Know Your Transaction (KYT) checks with actionable alerts and continuous monitoring, and the same coverage is wired into Chainalysis’s entity screening products and Reactor, its flagship investigations tool. That lets analysts track fund flows across HyperEVM tokens, investigate transactions, visualize money movements, and identify potentially illicit activity.
Where HyperEVM Fits in Hyperliquid
HyperEVM is Hyperliquid’s Ethereum-compatible execution environment. It lets developers port Ethereum-based applications onto the Layer 1 while still connecting to HyperCore and the wider Hyperliquid ecosystem, effectively extending the chain beyond its high-throughput perpetuals venue. For a compliance provider, that compatibility carries practical weight: the token standards and smart-contract patterns investigators already know from Ethereum now apply to Hyperliquid’s chain, so fund-flow tracking and transaction investigation work through familiar interfaces rather than bespoke tooling.
Compliance Infrastructure Catches Up to a Busy Network
The move arrives as Hyperliquid draws attention from developers and enforcement alike. Arkham recently reported that the Lazarus Group sold more than $30 million in bitcoin on Hyperliquid, underscoring why monitoring tools for the network matter. Separately, the Hyperliquid Policy Center has asked the CFTC to allow energy perpetual contracts in the U.S., a sign that the platform’s regulatory footprint is expanding as quickly as its trading activity. By extending coverage now, Chainalysis positions its customers to screen an ecosystem that is still adding tokens and use cases by the day.
