Get Your Name

Step-by-step guide to minting your .hype identity.

This guide walks you through every step of the whitelist minting process on dotHYPE.

What you'll Need

Before you begin, make sure you’ve got:

• A wallet (like MetaMask, Rabby, or Frame)

• Some $HYPE on HyperEVM (You'll use $HYPE to pay for your name based on USD-pegged pricing)

• A name in mind (Availability will be checked during the process)

Step-by-Step: How to Mint a Name

1

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

Click the “Connect Wallet” button on the minting page. You’ll see your wallet address appear once connected. This is the wallet that will own the name.

2

🔍 Step 2: Search for a Name

Type your desired name into the search bar (e.g., yourname.hype). The system will check real-time availability and show the corresponding price.

Name Length	Price (USD in $HYPE)
3 characters	$40
4 characters	$24
5+ characters	$12

✍️ Step 3: Confirm Your Name

If available, click “Mint Name”. This prepares a transaction to mint the name directly to your wallet. You’re not sending a transaction yet just signing a message that locks your intent to mint.

💸 Step 4: Complete the Mint

Once signed, you’ll see a “Confirm Mint” button. This triggers the onchain mint, and you’ll pay in $HYPE. Make sure your wallet has enough $HYPE to cover the mint price + gas. Any additional $HYPE not used will be refunded.
