> Trade Melt Assets on HyperCore's native central limit order book

## Overview

Once Melt Assets are on HyperCore, they trade on Hyperliquid's native central limit order book (CLOB). Melt does not operate its own exchange, it delivers assets to the most performant order book in DeFi.

## Key Features

* **Sub-second settlement** — trades settle in under 0.2 seconds
* **Native order book** — same CLOB used for HYPE, USDC, and all HyperCore assets
* **Zero protocol markup** — Melt charges no additional fees on trading. Users pay only standard Hyperliquid maker/taker fees
* **24/7/365 markets** — trade tokenized equities on weekends, respond to breaking news before traditional markets open

## Order Types

The Melt trading interface supports:

* **Market orders** — execute immediately at best available price
* **Limit orders** — set your price, execute when the market reaches it
