Spectate mode lets you view Terminal context for any public Hyperliquid address.

Use it to inspect another address, follow a public trader, or review account activity without connecting as that wallet.

Spectate mode is read-only. You can view public account context, but you cannot submit orders, manage positions, or change wallet-specific settings for the address.

For details on how read-only viewing differs from a connected trading wallet, read [Security and wallet safety](/getting-started/security-and-wallet-safety.md).
