Glossary

Every word The Hill uses, in one line each.

Word	What it means
Hill	A coin. Every coin on The Hill is drawn as a hill with its holders standing on it.
Height	How far a holder is above or below their average buy price. Up means profit.
Break-even line	The dashed line round the hill. Above it you're in profit, below it you're underwater.
King	The holder with the biggest profit in dollars. Holds the flag at the top, wears gold. Free bags can't be king.
Martian	You, on the hill. Your character, built on your first login.
Flag	A badge on a holder that says what kind of wallet they are: sniper, bundled, airdrop, whale, diamond hands and so on.
Average entry	The price you paid, averaged over every buy and sell you've made in that coin. Your height uses this.
Bundled	Several wallets buying in the same block, usually one person splitting a buy to look like a crowd.
Sniper	A wallet that bought in the first seconds after a coin launched.
Airdrop / No buy seen	A wallet that holds the coin but never bought it. Free bag, pure profit, can't be king.
Dev	The wallet that created the coin, or one it funded.
Cluster	Wallets linked by who funded them. Clusters tend to sell together.
KOL	"Key opinion leader." An influencer wallet we recognise.
Whale	A wallet holding more than 2% of the supply.
Diamond hands	Held through a 50% drop without selling.
Paper hands	Sold into every pump so far.
One balance	Your money, shown as one dollar figure, spendable on any coin on any chain. Lives in wallets only you control.
Gas	The small network fee a blockchain charges for every transaction. We pay it for you on most chains.
Fee	1.5% of a sell made at a profit, taken inside the trade. Buys and losing sells pay nothing. Split three ways.
Elysium	Hyperliquid's first Layer 2, by the Kinetiq team. The Hill's home chain, live from its first week.
Rebate	The third of the fee that comes back to traders, in $HILL, in proportion to the fees each of them paid.
Buyback and burn	The third of the fee that buys $HILL on the market and destroys it. Supply only goes down.
$HILL	The Hill's own coin. Where two thirds of every fee ends up.
Pin	An achievement on your profile: First Flag, Rug Dodger, Diamond Visor and so on.
Thesis	A short note a trader attaches to a position: why they're in. Shows on the hill.
Safety checks	Mint, freeze, liquidity, top holders, bundles, insider funding. Red means the coin can be rigged against you.
Bubble map	A picture of which holders share a source of funds. One blob of connected wallets is usually one person.
Rug	When the people behind a coin pull the liquidity or dump their supply and the price collapses.
