AMINA expands institutional crypto services with HYPE support

By Milan Rojan

Swiss digital asset bank AMINA Bank has added trading and custody support for HYPE, the native token of the Hyperliquid blockchain, expanding its regulated digital asset offering for institutional and professional clients.

The FINMA-regulated bank has enabled clients to trade and custody HYPE without volume caps or trading limits. The service has covered HYPE on Hyperliquid’s EVM-compatible environment, HyperEVM, while native HyperCore functionality and staking have not been included.

AMINA has introduced the offering as institutional interest in Hyperliquid has increased and more regulated investment products linked to HYPE have emerged. Hyperliquid has developed an on-chain venue for perpetual futures and spot trading, with the platform reportedly handling around 70% of on-chain perpetual futures volume.

The move has followed growing integration between digital assets and traditional financial markets. In March 2026, S&P Dow Jones Indices licensed the S&P 500 index to TradeXYZ for a perpetual futures contract trading on Hyperliquid, marking the first licensed perpetual derivative contract based on the index.

Regulated products linked to HYPE have also expanded. Bitwise has launched a spot HYPE exchange-traded fund in the US in May 2026, while a Hyperliquid staking exchange-traded product has subsequently been listed on Deutsche Börse Xetra in Europe.

Myles Harrison, Chief Product Officer at AMINA, has said the addition of HYPE has provided clients with regulated access to one of the more active venues in decentralised finance, alongside banking-grade custody.

The bank has positioned the new service as part of its broader strategy to bridge traditional and digital finance. AMINA has continued expanding its digital asset infrastructure as institutional participation in cryptocurrencies and blockchain-based markets has increased.

The bank has cautioned that its digital asset products may be subject to jurisdictional and regulatory restrictions and involve risks, including market, liquidity, counterparty and technology risks.
