HawkFi

HawkFi is an automation and analytics platform for on-chain market makers and liquidity providers building on Solana. The platform deploys specialized AI agents that work around the clock — placing quotes, rebalancing positions, screening tokens, and executing trades — without requiring users to monitor markets manually. Its self-custodial architecture means users retain full control of their funds at all times; there are no centralized vaults and no protocol custody of deposited capital.

From Hawksight to HawkFi

The project began in April 2021 under the name Hawksight, initially focused on yield optimization for Solana DeFi positions. By mid-2024, Hawksight v2 launched with a redesigned interface and a focus on concentrated liquidity automation across Meteora DLMM and Orca CLMM pools. In September 2024 the project rebranded fully to HawkFi, reflecting an evolved identity centered on becoming a liquidity infrastructure layer for Solana's permissionless markets. The rebrand coincided with the launch of the $HFI token — a migration from the legacy $HAWK token on a 1:1 basis — and the introduction of the Hawk Points airdrop program to incentivize v2 adoption.

The Agent Terminal

HawkFi describes its current product as an Agent Terminal: an interface where users configure, deploy, and monitor 24/7 agents tuned to specific assets and market conditions. The platform targets Solana spot markets and is built around four primary workflows.

The Market Making Agent performs permissionless market making by placing and refreshing buy and sell quotes around the current price of a token using Dynamic Limit Order mechanics. In a published comparison on a tokenized equity, it returned +111.60% versus +56.61% for buy-and-hold, achieving nearly 2x the return by requoting across 40 fills.

The Screener Agent with Osprey monitors Solana token markets continuously, applying filters across price action, volume, and on-chain signals to route qualified LP entries into models automatically, removing the need for manual opportunity discovery.

The Osprey Trading Agent acts on Osprey signals to take direct token positions rather than LP exposure, executing entries based on early momentum. It screens out over 99% of tokens and trades only the small fraction that qualify — for instance, entering one token at roughly $75,000 in market cap before it peaked near $3.16 million.

The Liquidity Providing workflow runs DLMM and CLMM strategies on Meteora, Orca, and Raydium with autocompound, autorebalance, and auto take-profit/stop-loss triggers. Supports directional LP positions with asymmetric price ranges. In one published comparison, a HawkFi automated position earned $272.83 versus $0.39 for a static manual range, with auto-rebalance keeping the position in-range 98% of the time versus 53%.

HawkFi Laboratory

Before deploying live capital, users can test configurations in HawkFi Laboratory, a backtesting environment that benchmarks strategies against HODL and passive LP benchmarks. The platform notes explicitly that backtests do not guarantee future returns.

PropAMM Technology

As of mid-2026, HawkFi is battle-testing Proprietary AMM (PropAMM) technology that encodes market-making logic directly into smart contracts for tighter on-chain quoting competitive with centralized venue pricing, extending the platform's edge into the underlying market structure layer.

Self-Custody and Security

HawkFi's contracts are non-custodial: agents execute on behalf of users but cannot withdraw or transfer funds to external addresses — only the depositing user can initiate withdrawals. This removes protocol-level counterparty risk and keeps the trust surface narrow.

Token: HFI

The HFI token launched in late 2024 via a low-float bonding curve with Jupiter and Meteora — high circulating supply, full LP locks, no VC allocation. Previous HAWK token holders migrated 1:1. The Hawk Points program distributes weekly rewards across v1 and v2 activity, and Meteora DLMM LPs can stack HFI and MET points simultaneously.

Traction and Metrics

By the 2024 rebrand, HawkFi had processed $5.8 billion in total LP volume and generated $9.4 million in fees for active liquidity providers. The platform onboards new tokens launched on Meteora and Orca automatically, capturing fee volume early in a token's lifecycle when activity and spreads are highest. As of August 2026, HawkFi continues shipping — expanding market-making support to tokenized equities via Backpack Securities and Sunrise 24/7 markets. The V2 Agent Terminal roadmap envisions PropAMM agents for yield-oriented market makers and a 24/7 agentic trading workflow for directional traders.
