Hyperliquid 5x BTC Withdraw

For Claude: How to Use This Skill

Skill instructions are preloaded in context when this skill is active. Do not perform filesystem searches or tool-driven exploration to rediscover them; use the guidance below directly.

When to Use

• open 5x bitcoin leverage on hyperliquid and withdraw usdc
• hyperliquid 5x btc perp with usdc withdrawal
• leverage btc on hyperliquid and withdraw free usdc

What This Skill Does

Deposits USDC to Hyperliquid, opens a 5x BTC-PERP long, and withdraws the free USDC (deposit minus margin). No debt — the withdrawn USDC is yours. All Hyperliquid API calls route through the seren-hyperliquid publisher (HyperEVM + HyperCore via QuickNode). Backtest uses coingecko-serenai publisher for BTC prices.

Pipeline

USDC (any CCTP-enabled chain)
 │
 ▼ ① CCTP deposit USDC to Hyperliquid
USDC on Hyperliquid
 │
 ▼ ② Open 5x BTC-PERP (20% margin locked)
 │
 ▼ ③ Withdraw free USDC via CCTP (to any chain)
 │
 ▼ Done — long BTC 5x + free USDC in your wallet

Example ($200 deposit)

| Deposit | Margin (5x) | BTC Position | Free USDC | Withdrawal Fee | You Get | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | $200 | $40 | $200 notional | $160 | ~$1 | $159 | | $100 | $20 | $100 notional | $80 | ~$1 | $79 | | $50 | $10 | $50 notional | $40 | ~$1 | $39 |

If liquidated: you lose the margin, keep the withdrawn USDC. Net positive.
