The return column reflects each strategy’s own position sizing (some hold only a small slice of one coin), so Sharpe — which isn’t affected by leverage — is the fair way to rank them. 3 strategies that rank coins against each other (like funding carry and momentum ranking) can't run on a single asset, so they're left out.

Nothing cleared the bar on BNB — yet

None of the 12 strategies we tested worked well enough on BNB on its own. See the coins where strategies did work, or build and backtest your own on BNB for free.

What this is: a single-asset backtest of 12 systematic strategies on BNB, on real Hyperliquid data, net of fees, slippage and funding. A high Sharpe on a low trade count is a small sample, not a promise. Where nothing clears the bar, we say so. Past performance does not predict future results, and this is not investment advice.
