How to Onboard to Hytrade
Non-custodial and Custodial Wallets
On website onboarding, you will be defaulted to the Hytrade wallet (custodial). You can deposit HYPE by sending wallet to the ‘Hytrade Wallet’ address, as shown in theDeposit page.
To better help our users trade as effieciently as possible -
Hytrade supports two wallet type:
(Personal wallets) Non-custodial wallets: this is just your own wallet, that uses the available EVM $HYPE balance in your wallet. To use this wallet, you must sign transactions, as we do not see your private key.
(Hytrade Wallets) Custodial wallets: this is a wallet that is provisioned to you (but connected to your wallet), that allows the Hytrade platform to perform trades without any transaction confirmations for smoother transactions.
It is up to you which one to use, though Hytrade Wallets are reccomended for the most seamless experience.
