Coinbase has been named the official deployer of the USDC treasury wallet for Hyperliquid, supporting the implementation of the Aligned Quote Asset Version 2 (AQAv2) framework and marking a transition away from Hyperliquid's native stablecoin, USDH.
In May 2026, Coinbase announced that it would serve as the official deployer of Hyperliquid's USDC treasury wallet as part of the Aligned Quote Asset Version 2 (AQAv2) rollout. This development designates USDC as the principal quote asset on major Hyperliquid markets, with Coinbase and Circle both committing to stake a total of 1 million HYPE tokens and to share reserve yield with the protocol.
The AQAv2 initiative replaces Hyperliquid’s native stablecoin, USDH, which will be phased out. During the transition period, users can convert USDH to USDC or fiat without fees, and Coinbase has acquired the USDH brand rights. The protocol’s new structure ties the status of aligned quote assets to yield-sharing and staked collateral, with slashing mechanisms in place if obligations are not met.
