01 / THE IDENTITY

Who is this cat?

Hyperliquid introduced PURR as its first HIP-1 native token. The project’s announcement places it in the launch of on-chain spot trading, rather than identifying a pre-existing viral cat or a separate celebrity pet. The cat mascot belongs to that community story.

THE KYC THESIS

The cat as a piece of exchange history.

PURR’s distinctive story is its place in Hyperliquid’s native spot launch.

Editorial interpretation · Explore The thesis for evidence and limits.

Distinguishing features
