The Button is Yours to Push

The archive below covers everything we’ve published — newest first. Posts range from short product and company updates to longer research pieces on Bitcoin, Hyperliquid, and the perpetual futures market structure that sits underneath Button’s product surface.

Want to start trading the markets we write about? The Button market list is the fastest entry point — 210+ perpetual futures on Hyperliquid and trade.xyz, USDC-margined, settled on-chain, no custodian, no KYC at the protocol layer. Major crypto markets like BTC, ETH, and SOL trade 24/7; real-world asset perps like the S&P 500, NVDA, and gold trade through their standard sessions with reduce-only mode outside.

A few suggested starting points if you are new to the blog and not sure where to begin. The founder note on why we are building Button is the shortest path to understanding the company’s thesis. The Hyperliquid vs dYdX comparison and Tailoring HyperCore and HyperEVM are the two pieces most engineers and serious traders ask us about. The two-part Bitcoin transition research is the longest single thread we have published, and the best place to read what we actually believe about BTC over a ten-year horizon. The rest of the archive is below.

For readers who came in from search and want a sense of what the catalog actually looks like, the breadth runs roughly as follows. Long-form research includes the two-part Bitcoin transition series, a deep look at why liquidity explains everything about on-chain venues, and the writing on tailoring HyperCore and HyperEVM that engineers and serious traders reference most often. Practical guides cover perpetual futures from scratch, liquidation math worked out with examples, the mechanics of funding rates and basis, and head-to-head reviews of the venues a perp trader actually has to choose between. Company posts include funding announcements, founder writing on why we are building this in the first place, and shorter operational updates from the team. Security posts cover phishing follow-ups and the practical hygiene that keeps self-custodial accounts intact. The full chronological list begins below, with the most recently published piece at the top and the oldest at the bottom. Reading order is up to you — most pieces stand alone and link out to the related background where it matters.

The blog is updated regularly but not on a fixed cadence — pieces ship when they are ready rather than to a publication schedule.
