Hyperliquid has no sign-up. Your Ethereum address is your account there. The address ONE holds for you works as it is, once it is in MetaMask.

Want it walked, one step at a time, with the chat beside you? Open [/hyperliquid](/hyperliquid).

## Before you start

- Your ONE address is in MetaMask. If it is not, do [Load your key in MetaMask](/docs/metamask) first. It is one button.
- USDC in your Hyperliquid balance. Swap in from any coin you hold at [/swap](/swap?to=hl). It lands in the perps balance of the same address.

## Open Hyperliquid

Use a link. It opens the page for you.

| You want | Computer | Phone |
|---|---|---|
| To trade | [app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade](https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade) | [Opens inside the MetaMask app](https://link.metamask.io/dapp/app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade) |
| To see your balance | [app.hyperliquid.xyz/portfolio](https://app.hyperliquid.xyz/portfolio) | [Opens inside the MetaMask app](https://link.metamask.io/dapp/app.hyperliquid.xyz/portfolio) |
| One coin, such as Bitcoin | `app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/BTC` | `link.metamask.io/dapp/app.hyperliquid.xyz/trade/BTC` |

On a phone, the second link opens Hyperliquid inside the MetaMask app. Connect then finds MetaMask without a step. If the app is not installed, MetaMask shows its download page.

The same links are on [/hyperliquid](/hyperliquid), which picks the right one for your device. Add `?coin=BTC` to the address to land on that coin: `one.ie/hyperliquid?coin=ETH`. The coin must be a ticker. Anything else is ignored.

## Connect

A link cannot connect you. Connecting is you pressing a button in your own wallet.

1. On Hyperliquid, press **Connect**.
2. Choose **MetaMask**, then the ONE account you imported.
3. Check that the address Hyperliquid shows is your ONE address. The start and the end must match [Keys](/keys).

**Do not log in with email.** That makes a separate account at a different address, and your USDC will not be in it.

## If it looks empty

| You see | What to do |
|---|---|
| An empty account | You are on a different address. Disconnect, then connect the MetaMask account that matches Keys. |
| No USDC yet | A swap takes a few minutes to land. Follow it at [/swap](/swap). The money arrives in the perps balance of the same address. |
| Hyperliquid does not offer MetaMask | Open the phone link above, inside the MetaMask app. |
| MetaMask refuses to import the key | See [Load your key in MetaMask](/docs/metamask#if-metamask-shows-an-error). Rabby also works with Hyperliquid. |

## What ONE does not do

ONE never holds your money and never sees your key. The links above go to Hyperliquid's own site. Nothing in them carries your address or your key.
