Wintermute Wins 76% of Hyperliquid’s Top-Priority Data Auctions, Raising Fairness Concerns According to Bloomberg, crypto market maker Wintermute has dominated Hyperliquid’s priority data auctions, raising trading fairness concerns. Loris Tools data shows Wintermute-linked wallets won approximately 76% of the highest-priority auctions over the past month. The mechanism lets traders pay to receive order data milliseconds before execution, enabling faster quote adjustments or hedging elsewhere. Wintermute founder Evgeny Gaevoy argued that the system is more transparent than traditional finance’s low-latency infrastructure, while Hyperliquid Labs emphasized that anyone can participate and all priority fee payments are publicly recorded onchain.
