There are two ways to manage capital on Hyro. Most traders start with a Challenge Vault.

Challenge Vault

For traders without an existing track record. Pay an entry fee, pass an on-chain evaluation, get funded. Available from Q4 2026.

Direct Vault

For verified senior traders, funds, and algo desks with a track record. No challenge required. Opens Phase 2 (Q1 2027).

​
What you need

1

A wallet

Either sign in with email (a Solana wallet is auto-generated for you via embedded wallet — no extension required) or connect Phantom for full self-custody. You can export keys or migrate to Phantom at any time.
2

USDC on Solana

Evaluation fees and all settlement happen in USDC.
3

A Bybit account

Trade execution happens on Bybit’s real environment. You’ll connect your account during challenge setup.
You never need SOL for gas. Hyro sponsors all Solana gas for vault interactions, challenge purchases, and payouts.
