Hyperliquid Co-founder: ADL will not transfer P&L to HLP, and its treatment of users with HLP is fully symmetrical

BlockBeats News, December 10th, Hyperliquid co-founder Jeff published a post refuting the "Automatic Deleveraging Mechanism (ADL) transferring profit and loss to HLP" viewpoint. Jeff stated that the ADL mechanism does not transfer profit and loss to HLP (Hyperliquidity Provider), and its treatment of users and HLP is entirely symmetrical. ADL also will not destroy a $653 million profit.

On November 28th, Hyperliquid had already enabled the Cross-Margin Automatic Deleveraging (ADL) liquidation system on all its major perpetual contract markets to ensure orderly operation of the market during periods of intense market fluctuations, especially when liquidity tightens or large positions are close to liquidation. When the insurance fund cannot fully absorb the losses of the liquidated position, ADL (Automatic Deleveraging Mechanism) serves as a backup liquidation method. In such cases, the positions of highly leveraged traders with high unrealized profit may be partially or completely deleveraged to cover the capital gap. Hyperliquid emphasizes that ADL will only be triggered in special circumstances, and its design purpose is to maintain market integrity by preventing a chain default that could potentially disrupt the entire ecosystem.
