Insiders: Hyperliquid core contributors have publicly sought feedback on the HIP-4 template

According to a post by @0xMaxs, Hyperliquid core contributor Xulian is publicly soliciting feedback on the latest testnet template for HIP-4. The template can be accessed via on-chain queries or the testnet API, with each template family identified by an incrementing integer suffix for the latest version. After collecting feedback, validators will review and vote on-chain, and only approved templates will be written to the mainnet for deployers to use; all template instantiations still depend on HIP-4 being enabled on the mainnet.

It is reported that the testnet currently has 16 template records (including old versions), with approximately 12 latest templates based on the highest version of each family, covering 7 types of market structures. Candidate types include expiration prices (settled using specified period TWAP), price-triggered markets, range earnings, as well as central bank decisions, sports two-way options, and sports win/draw/loss, etc. The mainnet outcomeTemplates and deployer list are currently still empty, and permissionless templates have not yet been officially opened.

HIP-4 is Hyperliquid's permissionless deployment standard for outcome/prediction markets, with the complete process being: community feedback, validator review, on-chain voting, template writing to the mainnet, and market creation by deployers once the switch is enabled.
