Our verdict on Upheaval V3

5.2/10

Upheaval V3 is a niche concentrated-liquidity DEX for people already using HyperEVM. Its main strength is the CLMM design on a fast chain with a swap, pool and portfolio interface. The main caveat is risk: TVL is only around $396,000, DefiLlama lists no audits, and key details such as fees, points and token utility are not published publicly. Treat it as early-stage and size positions accordingly.

What is Upheaval V3?

Upheaval V3 is a decentralized exchange on HyperEVM using concentrated-liquidity pools. DefiLlama describes it as a CLMM DEX on Hyperliquid L1 and has tracked it since August 2025.

The homepage offers swaps, liquidity pools, points, a portfolio view and an info section. A launch platform called JumpPad is marked as coming soon. Named ecosystem partners include Ooga Booga, Magpie and Rubifi.

The protocol is small, with about $396,000 in TVL, and DefiLlama lists a token with the ticker UPHL. It suits users already active on HyperEVM who want another venue for swaps and liquidity provision.

How Upheaval V3 works

Upheaval V3 is an automated market maker. Instead of an order book, traders swap against pools of tokens funded by liquidity providers, and prices move with the pool balance.

The CLMM design lets providers choose a price range for their capital. Liquidity inside the range earns fees, which can raise capital efficiency, but a position stops earning if the price moves outside its range, and it can suffer impermanent loss.

The protocol runs on HyperEVM, the EVM layer of Hyperliquid. Users connect a compatible wallet, approve tokens and transact through the web app.

Watch out for

TVL of about $396,000 is small, so liquidity depth and slippage on larger trades may be a problem
DefiLlama lists no audits for the protocol
Fee tiers, point rewards and token utility are not detailed
The JumpPad launchpad is marked coming soon and is not live
Homepage copyright reads 2025 and public sources show no recent product updates
Depends entirely on one chain, so any HyperEVM issue affects the whole protocol

Upheaval V3 fees

Swap fee tiers and liquidity-provider fee shares are not stated publicly. The homepage only says swaps run at a low fee.

Users should see the fee tier for each pool in the Swap and Liquidity pages before confirming a trade or opening a position. Network gas on HyperEVM applies on top of any pool fee.

Is Upheaval V3 safe?

DefiLlama lists no audits for Upheaval V3. Contracts are non-custodial in the usual DEX sense, meaning users keep their keys, but they carry smart-contract risk, and unaudited code is higher risk.

Public sources mention no hacks or incidents, and they do not name the team. The small TVL and young age mean limited track record. Use small amounts first and check the project's documentation and official channels for any audit reports.
