Unified Account Mode

Unified account mode is a Hyperliquid account setting that lets you trade both USDC and USDH markets from a single collateral balance. Hyperliquid requires unified mode to be active before you can set a referrer or approve a builder fee.

Full details on how unified mode works at the protocol level are in Hyperliquid's docs.

What changes when you switch

• Your USDC and USDH collateral are merged into a single balance
• You can trade any HL market without manually selecting collateral type
• Existing positions and open orders are not affected

How Aura handles this

Switching to unified mode is one of the steps in the initial enable-trading flow. You sign once with your wallet — Aura submits the request to Hyperliquid and confirms the switch before proceeding.

If Aura detects that your account isn't in unified mode when you try to approve the builder fee later (for example, if you reverted the setting externally), it will insert the unified step automatically.

Is it reversible?

Unified mode can be changed from Hyperliquid directly. However, Aura requires it to remain active for full functionality. If you switch back, you may be prompted to re-enable it the next time you trade.
