For Hyperliquid and Lighter data, use 0xArchive: live feeds, history, order-level books, replay and Parquet exports under one key. Core books start on 15 April 2023; Free covers the latest 30 days and Build opens the full retained archive for $49 a month. Take Binance, Bybit and other centralized venues from a multi-exchange vendor. ### Is there a cheaper alternative to 0xArchive? 0xArchive Free is $0 with live WebSocket plus the latest 30 days of REST and replay; Build is $49 a month ($39 billed annually) for the full retained archive with 80 million credits. Published paid plans elsewhere start at $79 a month for CoinAPI Startup, $300 for Hydromancer's API and $700 for Tardis.dev Solo; Kaiko quotes custom plans. ### Which provider has the most Hyperliquid history? 0xArchive core Hyperliquid book history starts on 15 April 2023, with full-depth L2 and wallet-attributed L4 from 11 March 2026. Compare dated dataset coverage in the table, then use the same API for live feeds, historical queries and replay. ### Which provider stores Hyperliquid L4 order book data? Use 0xArchive for reconstructed Hyperliquid L4 books with order IDs and wallets: core and HIP-3 from 11 March 2026, HIP-4 from 2 May and Spot from 5 May. Query a timestamp through REST, replay stored windows or stream live L4; Parquet exports are available through the Data Catalog. ### Which provider covers Lighter history? Use 0xArchive for Lighter trades from 17 January 2025, funding and open interest from 25 August 2025, price-level books from 29 January 2026 and L3 snapshots from 5 March 2026. L3 contains individual resting orders attributed by Lighter account index, with Hyperliquid available under the same key. ### Do I need another provider alongside 0xArchive? Not for Hyperliquid or Lighter market data: 0xArchive covers live feeds, books, trades, funding, open interest, liquidations and order-level depth under one key. Add another provider for jobs outside that scope, such as Binance and Bybit in one feed, FIX connectivity, RPC nodes or HyperEVM token and NFT data.
