Basic decency or above and beyond? HyperLiquid’s

HyperLiquid’s move to refund users sparked a split reaction across the crypto community. Some applauded the exchange, calling it “world class” and praising its proactive handling of a situation where it had no legal obligation to compensate users.

Others, however, were less impressed; arguing that refunding users after a technical failure should be the bare minimum. One user remarked,

“The fact that the industry thinks this is incredible just shows how disgusting crypto has become.”

Still, even critics agreed on one point: while this gesture was welcome, it has highlighted the need for stronger infrastructure to avoid future issues.
