Resolution

There are two main resolution processes for the Hyperliquid Names protocol: Forward Resolution, used to go from name to address and other data, and Reverse Resolution, used to go from address to name.

Forward Resolution

Forwards resolution is the process of going from name to address. As well as to load the text records associated to a name. Users can set up to two text records with any key:value pair, and more will be supported in the future.

Implementing forwards resolution in a dApp can be as simple as using a single line of code! To learn more about how to implement forwards resolution, check out our dApp integration page.

Coin Types

By default, names resolve to the Hyper EVM address. Hyperliquid Names also supports resolving to other coin addresses based on SLIP-0044. Currently, we support the following coin types:

Coin type	Symbol	Coin
0	BTC	Bitcoin
60	ETH	Ethereum
501	SOL	Solana

Reverse Resolution (Primary Name)

Reverse resolution is the process of going from address to name. This allows for any address to be resolved into a human readable name. Instead of pages filled with addresses, you can now show the names of the people behind the addresses.
