Hop Aggregator

Hop Aggregator is building the ultimate decentralized aggregation layer for the Sui ecosystem.

We provide discoverability, affordability, and interoperability by default. With 0% fees.

Our core infrastructure is better described as an aggregation mechanism — leveraging a friendly user-facing frontend that provides users direct access to the most optimal pricing and lending rates across multiple DEXs and (soon) other markets.

We’re pleased to introduce ourselves, our product vision, and our plans to create a lasting loyal community in the Sui ecosystem. We're not like other aggregators.

Who Are We

We are builders who embrace new opportunities to add to a growing ecosystem. Our background spans traditional finance, web2 development, high-frequency trading, and multiple DeFi startups on other chains. We take pride in our ability to iterate quickly on new infrastructure and ship useful and composable DeFi infrastructure. We've recently fallen in love with Sui's developer experience and this project is our love letter to it.

We want to introduce ourselves by building a public good, the first hyperstructure on Sui.

What We're Building First

Free Trade Aggregator: We are building a trade aggregator that enables users to find the best trading rates across multiple DEXs in the Sui ecosystem. This will operate as a hyperstructure that acts as the core building block for the protocols and products built after.

Hyperstructure Theory is the notion that in a decentralized economy, protocols designed to run for free and forever, without maintenance, interruption, or intermediaries, are the most important building blocks for creating a true geodesic market. This refers to the individual public goods which create a positive-sum ecosystem for any participants in the developing economic machine. The term Hyperstructure here comes from our friend Jacob Horne, founder of Zora.

According to the Cypherpunk Robert Hettinga, a geodesic market’s economics will no longer be a political tool leveraged by nation-states. The fiat system, and the nation-states that thrive off them, would eventually be as ceremonial as modern-day constitutional monarchs.

While Sui is still in its infancy, we have already seen half a dozen emerging DEXs with their respective tech stack and product focus. We’ll do the footwork to interlink all DEXs so users can always access the best trading rates within the ecosystem. We want to support all sovereign stores of value on Sui and provide users with access to the cheapest liquidity anywhere.

You've almost certainly seen trade aggregators on other chains, even integrated into most wallets, but these are rent-extracting protocols that don't align with cypherpunk ideals.

We have a multi-year roadmap and will be continuously rolling out new products.
