Connect Hyperliquid
Verify your wallet, deposit USDC on Hyperliquid, then approve the builder fee and trading agent. Your deposited funds are held in your Hyperliquid trading account, controlled by your wallet — Blitz does not hold them or have withdrawal permission.
WHAT YOU NEED
- A wallet — Rabby or MetaMask, in the same browser.
- USDC on Arbitrum One. Not USDT. Not another network.
- A little ETH on Arbitrum One — gas for the deposit transaction only. A few dollars' worth is plenty.
Don't have these yet? Step 0 walks you through all three.
Then you are done before you start — connect the wallet you already use. Your existing balance and positions stay exactly where they are.

Skip this step if you already have a wallet holding USDC and a little ETH on Arbitrum One.
The path your money takes. Two hops — the main ways to lose money sit on the arrows; the callouts below list the rest.
- USDC, not USDT — and native USDC, not “USDC.e”
- Arbitrum One — not Nova, not Ethereum
- From this wallet — never straight from the exchange
- Wallet back on Arbitrum One — step 1 can leave it on Sepolia
- Never under 5 USDC — anything smaller is lost
- Needs a little ETH for gas — no ETH, no deposit
Screens in this guide are drawn, not photographed — wallet and exchange layouts change often, and real captures carry addresses. Look for the labels, whatever the exact layout.
Install a wallet
Install Rabby (rabby.io) or MetaMask (metamask.io) as a browser extension — download only from the official site. Choose the option to create a new wallet (not “import”) and set a password.
During setup the wallet shows you 12 (sometimes 24) words. Write them on paper and keep it offline — no screenshot, no notes app, no email. Anyone with those words controls your funds, and nobody can restore them for you. Blitz will never ask for them.
The words are hidden here on purpose. This screen — and any “private key” screen — must never be photographed or copied into a file.
Hyperliquid's own site also offers an email sign-in. That creates a wallet that lives inside their app — Blitz cannot connect to it, so use a browser wallet for this guide. On a phone, open this site inside the wallet app's built-in browser.
Send USDC and a little ETH from your exchange
Copy your wallet address (it starts with 0x). On your exchange open Withdraw and send USDC to it:
Exchange withdrawal fees come out of this amount, and Hyperliquid's bridge discards anything under 5 USDC. If you want to try a small amount first, make it at least 10 USDC after fees — that clears the bridge safely, but a bot needs more; check “How much do you need?” below before you decide.
Then repeat with ETH, also on Arbitrum One, for a few dollars' worth. That is the gas for depositing into Hyperliquid — one deposit normally costs a few cents.
Wrong network. Exchanges label it “Arbitrum One” or just “Arbitrum” (spellings vary — if the option says “Nova”, it is the wrong one). Not Ethereum, not any other chain: funds sent to another EVM chain sit there under the same address, and you would have to bridge them yourself.
Wrong coin. USDC, not USDT — and native USDC, not the older “USDC.e”. If your exchange lists both, pick USDC.
Straight to the bridge. Never withdraw from the exchange directly to Hyperliquid's bridge address. The bridge credits whoever sent the money — that would be the exchange, not you. Always go exchange → your wallet → Hyperliquid.
“Hyperliquid” as a network. Some exchanges list it. Do not use it for this guide: it can deliver to two different places (a separate EVM chain, or the Spot side of your trading account), and Blitz's setup may not see money that lands in the wrong one. Exchange → your wallet on Arbitrum One → Deposit on app.hyperliquid.xyz is the only path this guide covers.
Your wallet, switched to Arbitrum One, shows the USDC and a small ETH balance. Continue to step 1.
1 Connect your wallet
Your wallet asks for permission. This step shares your public address only — no signature, no funds move.
“Registered by: None” and “Site popularity: Very low” are your wallet's own numbers — they count how many of its users have visited a site and whether the site is in its directory. A newly listed app scores low until people use it. We cannot set either value.
Check the domain instead: it must read exactly www.blitz-trading.com.
After connecting you sign once to prove the wallet is yours. Signing is free — it is not a transaction and costs no gas.
This signature is stamped with “Arbitrum Sepolia” — your wallet may ask to add that network, and it stays on it afterwards. That is expected (step 4 explains why). Switch back to Arbitrum One before you deposit in step 2.
2 Deposit USDC
Open app.hyperliquid.xyz with the same wallet you connected in step 1. Hyperliquid first asks you to “Enable Trading” with one free signature — that prompt is theirs, not ours. Then choose Deposit and send USDC over Arbitrum One. The bridge credits the address that sent the money, so the deposit has to come from that wallet — not from an exchange.
USDC, not USDT. The Hyperliquid bridge accepts USDC. If your exchange has USDT selected by default, change it.
Arbitrum One, not Arbitrum Sepolia. The signature in step 1 left your wallet on Sepolia, a test network — switch back first. Step 4 explains why.
Never under 5 USDC. That is the bridge minimum; anything below it is not credited and cannot be recovered.
The deposit is a transaction on Arbitrum, so the wallet needs a little ETH there for gas (step 0). Trading on Hyperliquid itself is gas-free.
Most accounts use Hyperliquid's unified balance, so the USDC you deposit backs everything you trade. If your Hyperliquid app shows separate Perps and Spot balances instead, the deposit must be in Perps.
3 Approve the Blitz fee
Hyperliquid pays us a builder fee on the orders our bot places for you. You approve a maximum rate once, with your main wallet.
| 30-day volume | Fee | Per $10,000 traded |
|---|---|---|
| Everyone (default) | 0.03% | $3.00 |
| Over $10,000,000 | 0.02% | $2.00 |
| Over $30,000,000 | 0.01% | $1.00 |
You approve a ceiling of 0.035%, and we never charge more than that. Today every account pays the default 0.03%; the lower rates switch on once 30-day volume tracking goes live. This is separate from Hyperliquid's own trading fee, which you pay to the exchange as usual.
4 Approve the trading agent
An agent is a key that can place orders for you. Registering one is what lets the bot trade while you sleep.
Blitz never asks for your private key or seed phrase. Your wallet signs each step locally and only the signature is sent to us.
Hyperliquid signs these approvals on that network by design — it is only the stamp on the signature, not where your money goes. Nothing is sent there and no gas is spent.
Switch your wallet back to Arbitrum One before you deposit. Signing leaves the wallet on Sepolia (you already met this in step 1), and a deposit sent from there does not arrive.
How much do you need?
Hyperliquid rejects any order worth less than $10. Our strategies place a ladder of orders, so a balance that is too small makes the smallest rungs disappear — and if the first rung disappears, the bot cannot open a position at all.
The smallest step of your strategy, multiplied by your leverage, must clear $10. A strategy with many small early steps needs more balance than one with few large steps. If a strategy cannot run with your balance, pick one with fewer rungs or add funds.
Questions
Can Blitz take my money?
No. The agent we register can trade and move collateral between your own accounts. It cannot send funds to any address other than yours. Only your main wallet can withdraw, and only your main wallet can revoke the agent — you can do that at any time on Hyperliquid.
Do I need to verify my identity?
No. There is no account and no KYC. You connect a wallet you already control.
Why did my wallet switch to a test network?
Hyperliquid stamps its approval signatures with Arbitrum Sepolia. It is part of the signature format, not a destination — no funds are sent there and no gas is spent. Switch back to Arbitrum One before depositing.
Do I need ETH to trade?
No. ETH is only gas for the one-time deposit transaction on Arbitrum. Trading on Hyperliquid itself is gas-free, and the builder fee and exchange fees are taken in USDC.
I already have a Hyperliquid account. Do I start over?
No. Connect the same wallet. Your balance, positions and history stay as they are, and the bot works alongside them.
Can I stop the bot?
Yes, from Blitz at any time. You can also revoke the agent directly on Hyperliquid with your main wallet, which cuts off order placement regardless of what Blitz does.
Blitz never asks for your private key or seed phrase. If any page or message asks for one, it is not us.
