Purr (PURR) is a meme-inspired token associated with the Hyperliquid ecosystem, representing the first spot launch on the Hyperliquid Layer 1 network. The token has a fixed maximum supply of 1 billion, with 500 million tokens distributed proportionally to existing points holders at launch. An additional 400 million tokens initially deployed as Hyperliquidity under the HIP-2 standard were subsequently burned, reducing the circulating supply. PURR functions as a deflationary asset within the HyperEVM ecosystem. Trading fees denominated in the token are burned, creating a continuous supply reduction mechanism tied to on-chain activity. While the project originated without a predefined utility roadmap, its role as a community-driven asset tied to the Hyperliquid network has made it a recognized presence in the broader meme and cat-themed token landscape.
The $165M nine-month loss is mostly paper: $64M unrealized HYPE markdowns, a $35.6M legacy bio write-off, and a $60.5M deferred-tax hit — while the actual token stack grew.
$PURR is the first spot launch on the Hyperliquid L1.
