How trading SHIB perps works here
Like every Hyperliquid perp, kSHIB-USD trades on a fully on-chain central limit order book with no gas fee per trade — costs are the maker/taker fee (fee schedule) plus hourly peer-to-peer funding. Margin can be cross or isolated; maintenance margin is half the initial margin at this market's 10x cap — the full liquidation math is in our leverage & liquidation guide.
At 10x maximum leverage, initial margin for a SHIB position is 1/10 of notional at minimum — and the higher the leverage, the closer liquidation sits to entry. New to the instrument entirely? Read perpetuals explained first, and our Hyperliquid review for the venue itself, including the risks.
SHIB's 10x cap is mid-range for Hyperliquid — meaningful leverage without the razor-thin liquidation buffer of the top tiers. The exchange tends to set caps in this band on markets with solid but not headline liquidity.
SHIB also trades on Aster, Lighter, Paradex, Pacifica, GRVT and SoDEX. Fee schedules and funding mechanics are set per venue, not per asset — compare them on fee comparison and live funding rates, and see the feature comparison for order types, collateral, and everything else each venue supports.
