01 · The Problem

The biggest opportunities in crypto are hard to access

Buying Bitcoin through an ETF is mainstream now. Earning income from the market itself still takes specialist knowledge and tools.

Most of crypto's yield sits outside the ETFs

The highest-yield opportunities require deep, native knowledge of on-chain markets that most investors don't have and can't easily acquire.

The tooling is built for developers

Decentralized exchanges and liquidity pools are powerful, but the interfaces, risks and mechanics are built for specialists who work in them every day.

Fee income is invisible

Exchanges generate billions in trading fees every year. Most of the on-chain share flows to a small group of crypto-native operators who know how to capture it.

The result: most investors are shut out of crypto's income layer, even as the market matures around them.
02 · Our Approach

We built the expertise and infrastructure to reach it

A new firm, with crypto-native experience going back to 2017 and in-house systems built for one job: capturing fee income while managing risk.

Native access

Active in DeFi since 2017. We operate directly on-chain, across venues most investors never touch.

Proprietary systems

Custom tooling for position management, fee accounting, monitoring and risk control, running around the clock.

Income first

Our primary goal is steady fee income from trading activity.

Full transparency

Every position lives on a public blockchain. Investors receive monthly reporting and on-chain visibility.

03 · Why Now

Crypto is becoming financial infrastructure

Institutions, stablecoins and regulated access are driving more of crypto's trading activity, and fee pools grow with it.

Institutions

Wall Street is building on-chain

Spot bitcoin and ether ETFs are now mainstream portfolio products, and the largest asset managers, banks and exchanges are building tokenization and settlement on public blockchains.

Stablecoins

Digital dollars at scale

About $305B of stablecoins circulate today, up roughly 50% since the start of 2025, with a U.S. federal framework in place since the GENIUS Act became law in July 2025.

~$305B in circulation
Regulation

U.S. regulators are writing crypto rules

The SEC and CFTC issued a joint interpretation in March 2026. The SEC proposed Regulation Crypto Assets in August, and the CFTC sent two crypto rulemakings to OMB in September. Comprehensive market-structure legislation (the CLARITY Act) failed a Senate cloture vote on September 15, 2026, so the path remains administrative for now.

Market structure

Trading is moving on-chain

Decentralized perpetual futures exchanges, led by Hyperliquid, now handle a meaningful share of global crypto derivatives volume, and fee pools grow with that activity.

"Every stock, every bond, every fund, every asset can be tokenized. If they are, it will revolutionize investing."

Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock
04 · The Strategy

We earn a fee on every trade we help fill

Every trade on a decentralized exchange pays a fee to the liquidity providers who make the market. We supply that liquidity, actively managed, and collect those fees.

How it works

Trading fee capture

We deposit capital into exchange liquidity pools. Each trade that routes through our liquidity pays us a share of its fee.

What drives it

More trading means more fees

Fees accrue whether prices rise or fall, as long as people trade. Positions still carry price exposure, which we actively manage.

Why it compounds

Grows with the market

As adoption and trading volumes expand, the fee pools available to liquidity providers expand with them.

Plain-English risk: liquidity positions are exposed to the prices of the assets they hold, and can lose value when prices move sharply (often called impermanent loss). Fee income can offset, but does not eliminate, that risk.
05 · Our Venue of Choice

The action is on Hyperliquid

Hyperliquid is the largest decentralized derivatives exchange in crypto, with more open interest than its next three on-chain competitors combined. It has no outside venture funding, a very small core team, and most investors have still never heard of it.

06 · What's Being Built

An exchange becoming a financial platform

Hyperliquid started as a perpetual futures exchange. In 2026 it opened up to outside builders, new asset classes, Wall Street products and regulated distribution.

HIP-3: builder-deployed markets Live

Builders who stake 500,000 HYPE can launch their own markets. Trade.xyz and others list stock indices, single stocks, commodities and pre-IPO names. HIP-3 open interest is about $3.9B and did over $62B of volume in May alone.

HIP-4: outcome markets Live

Prediction-style markets became permissionless in the August 29, 2026 upgrade. Deployers must lock 500,000 HYPE for six months, subject to slashing.

Stablecoin yield funds buybacks Live

Under the AQAv2 program, most of the yield on USDC held on Hyperliquid is directed to HYPE buybacks. The first payment, about $14.6M of USDC, arrived in October 2026.

HyperEVM: an on-chain economy Live

Hyperliquid's smart-contract layer holds about $1B across lending markets (HyperLend, Felix, HypurrFi), liquid staking (Kinetiq) and DEXs. Those DEXs are where liquidity providers like us earn fees.

Wall Street products Live

U.S.-listed HYPE ETFs from 21Shares, Bitwise and Grayscale launched in May and June 2026. Hyperliquid Strategies (Nasdaq: PURR) holds about 29 million HYPE, and Hyperliquid futures data now runs on the Bloomberg Terminal.

Regulated U.S. access Announced

On September 16, 2026, Kraken's parent Payward announced plans to offer Hyperliquid perps to eligible U.S. clients through CFTC-regulated Bitnomial and NinjaTrader Clearing. This is subject to approval and has no launch date.

Distribution through wallets Live

Phantom, MetaMask and other apps route their users' trades to Hyperliquid through builder codes. That brings in users who never visit Hyperliquid directly.

Price discovery when markets close Live

When U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran hit on the weekend of February 28, 2026, Hyperliquid's crude oil market was one of the few live venues, trading up to $1.7B a day. JPMorgan analysts took note.

07 · Validation

Wall Street has noticed

In 2026 Hyperliquid went from a crypto-native secret to a name that exchange CEOs, asset managers and financial media discuss directly.

February 2026

Forbes Fintech 50

Named to Forbes' annual list of the most innovative fintech companies, one of five crypto firms selected.

May 2026

"Bigger than Nasdaq"

Jeffrey Sprecher, founder and CEO of Intercontinental Exchange (owner of the NYSE), said Hyperliquid is bigger than Nasdaq in trading activity, speaking at a Bernstein conference.

May - June 2026

Three U.S. spot ETFs

21Shares (THYP), Bitwise (BHYP) and Grayscale (HYPG) each launched an exchange-traded product holding HYPE on Nasdaq or the NYSE.

"Hyperliquid is not directly comparable to another project in either crypto or traditional finance. If it continues to execute well, we think Hyperliquid could become a financial services juggernaut."

The first AQAv2 payment of about $14.6M arrives. Open interest including HIP-3 is near its highs at about $15B.

What we're watching

U.S. regulated access. Whether the Payward / Bitnomial route is approved, and whether CFTC rulemaking makes room for on-chain perps.

Real-world assets. Whether equity, index and commodity markets keep growing as a share of Hyperliquid volume.

HyperEVM liquidity. Growth in on-chain trading and lending, which drives the fee pools we provide liquidity to.

Competition. Rival perp DEXs gained share in late 2025 before Hyperliquid recovered. Share can move quickly.

These are developments we monitor. There is no assurance any will occur or benefit Farr Out or its investors.

10 · The Playbook

Fee income is the Farr Out engine

Liquidity-provider fees are the core. Retained income builds the balance sheet and funds what comes next.

Algorithmic trading and market making

Systematic strategies designed to earn from volume and volatility, built in-house and tested against live markets.

Opportunistic acquisition

Sharp drawdowns can put leading assets like BTC, ETH and HYPE on sale. Retaining part of our fee income is meant to give us dry powder when others are forced sellers.

New markets

As new venues and on-chain markets launch, including builder-deployed markets on Hyperliquid, we evaluate where fee income is available.

11 · Track Record

12 · How It Works for Investors

Monthly distributions, then equity

Investors hold a convertible note that receives 80% of fee income monthly until a 2x return is reached, then converts to equity.

STEP 01

Invest

Purchase a convertible promissory note. Capital is deployed across our income strategies.

STEP 02

Receive monthly

80% of fee income is distributed pro rata each month until total distributions reach 2x invested capital.

STEP 03

Convert to equity

At 2x, notes convert into a 20% equity stake in Farr Out, shared pro rata among noteholders. Members then share in at least 50% of fee income, distributed monthly per the operating agreement.

15 · Key Risks

What could go wrong

We think investors should see the risks as clearly as the opportunity. The offering documents contain the complete risk factors.

Market and price risk

Liquidity positions hold volatile digital assets. Sharp price moves can cause losses that exceed fee income, including impermanent loss.

Fee income is variable

Fees depend on trading volume, competition from other liquidity providers and venue fee policy. Yields can fall sharply or to zero.

Hyperliquid-specific risk

Competition from other exchanges, pushback from incumbents such as CME and ICE, falling crypto-native volumes, or problems in builder-deployed markets could reduce Hyperliquid's activity and fees.

Venue and concentration risk

A large share of activity is concentrated on Hyperliquid and related venues. Outages, governance changes or loss of market share could hurt results.

Smart contract and custody risk

On-chain protocols can contain bugs or be exploited. Keys and wallets can be compromised. Losses may be unrecoverable.

Regulatory risk

U.S. market-structure legislation has not passed, and rules for digital assets and DeFi may change in ways that restrict or end the strategy.

Early-stage company and illiquidity

Farr Out is a new company with a short operating history. Notes are illiquid, subject to a lockup, and investors could lose their entire investment.
