# Hyperbeat > Hyperbeat is the Liquid Banking platform built on Hyperliquid. One self-custodial onchain account combines trading (perpetual futures and spot on Hyperliquid's order books), a global account with savings, loans, and a credit card. Users keep custody of their assets at all times: accounts are self-custodial smart wallets on HyperEVM controlled only by the user's passkey — no centralized exchange, custodian, or intermediary holds funds. Key facts: - Trading runs on Hyperliquid, the largest onchain perpetuals exchange, through Hyperbeat's gasless one-click interface (Hyperbeat Trade). - Self-custodial by design: balances, credit positions, and spending rules live onchain and are governed by smart contracts, verifiable by anyone. - One unified balance covers spot and perps; trading proceeds can fund card payments, collateralize credit, or earn yield without leaving the account. - Markets include crypto perps and spot plus markets tracking stocks, ETFs, commodities, FX, indices, and prediction markets. ## Key pages - [Hyperbeat](https://hyperbeat.org): Liquid Banking — save, spend, trade, and ramp from one self-custodial account - [Hyperbeat App](https://app.hyperbeat.org): open a Liquid Bank account, trade, and earn - [Blog](https://hyperbeat.org/blog): guides, product news, and campaigns ## Trading guides (Learn) Full text of every guide: [llms-full.txt](https://hyperbeat.org/llms-full.txt) - [What Are Perpetual Futures?
