The mobile frontend for onchain derivatives.
Hyperliquid L1 execution with a consumer-grade interface on top. Self-custodial by design — Farao routes your orders, it never holds your funds.
Onchain derivatives venues solved the hard problems — transparent execution, self-custodial collateral, order books that settle on a chain. What they did not solve is the interface. Trading them still mostly means a desktop browser, a wallet extension, and a terminal-shaped UI.
Farao is the frontend layer: a mobile app that connects a self-custodial wallet to Hyperliquid L1 markets and wraps them in an order flow designed for a phone. The venue does execution and settlement; Farao does onboarding, funding, the order ticket, and position management. Interface and infrastructure, cleanly separated.
Why it matters
Venue-grade execution, app-grade UX
Orders match on Hyperliquid L1's order book. The screen you trade from is built like a consumer app, not a terminal.
True separation of concerns
Farao is an interface, not a broker or custodian. Funds stay at your address; the venue settles trades; the app makes both usable.
Onboarding without the extension dance
Wallet creation, USDC funding by card or transfer, and first trade all happen inside one mobile flow.
Full market access
100+ onchain markets — crypto, equities, indexes, commodities, pre-IPO — through one frontend, up to 50x.
How it works
- 01
The app creates your wallet
A self-custodial wallet is set up during onboarding. Keys stay on your side; the app is a signer interface.
- 02
Orders are signed, then routed
Each trade is a signed instruction from your wallet, routed to Hyperliquid L1 where matching and settlement happen onchain.
- 03
Positions live on the venue
Margin, funding, and liquidation are enforced by the venue's onchain engine — the app reads and displays that state in real time.
- 04
The frontend stays out of the way
Farao adds TP/SL management, market discovery, and notifications on top — without ever taking custody.
Risk, handled upfront
Transparent venue mechanics
Liquidation and funding follow the venue's published onchain rules, not a private exchange policy.
Risk surfaced at the interface
The frontend's job is visibility: liquidation price, funding, and margin shown before signing, TP/SL attached at entry.
No custodial chokepoint
Because the frontend never holds funds, there is no app-level account to freeze and no interface-operator custody risk.
