HyperAuth lets you link a passkey to your Hyperion account, acting as a second factor for sensitive operations.
When performing high-risk actions like:
- Removing LPs, or
- Claiming frozen or locked assets,
HyperAuth ensures that only you can authorize those transactions — even if someone else has your seed phrase or private key.
How It Works
Hyperauth — it’s fully on-chain.When you set up HyperAuth:
Your encrypted public key is stored on Aptos.
Your private key for the passkey remains entirely local to your device.
Each time you attempt a protected action, Hyperion’s smart contract requests verification through your registered passkey. Only after successful verification will the transaction be signed and executed — no servers, no intermediaries, no trust assumptions.Everything happens on-chain, transparently and securely.
Why It Matters
HyperAuth strengthens the foundation of asset security in DeFi:
On-Chain 2FA — Adds an additional protection layer to critical actions, without compromising decentralization.
Self-Sovereign Control — Your passkey stays local; only a public hash is stored on-chain.
Protection Against Key Theft — Even if someone gets your wallet key, they can’t access your LPs or frozen assets without your second-factor passkey.

FAQ
Since Passkey is not supported on mobile devices, how can I withdraw large amount of liquidity on mobile?
If you want to withdraw in a short period of time an amount larger than $200K USD worth of asset on mobile & without Hyperauth, please directly withdraw.
When the limit is reached, a temporary withdrawal freeze is automatically triggered as a security measure.
Please wait 24 hours. After the cooldown period ends, your funds will be automatically unlocked and credited back to your account. No further action is required from your side.
Error "PasskeyError: This device of web browser does not support passkey. Please use a different device or web browser"
First please make sure you are activating Hyperauth from a wallet extension on PC that supports Aptos.
