A wallet linked to Arthur Hayes withdrew 47,007 $HYPE, worth roughly $3.16M, from Bybit seven hours ago, reigniting speculation that the BitMEX co-founder has re-entered the token he publicly claimed to have exited.
The move mirrors a pattern from a week earlier, when the same wallet, 0xf7A4, pulled 33,978 $HYPE ($2.09M) off Bybit shortly after Hayes announced he had sold all of his holdings. Hayes later denied buying the token, and the wallet sent the 33,978 $HYPE back to the exchange.
The latest withdrawal, roughly 38% larger in dollar terms than the prior round, comes without a public statement from Hayes. On-chain observers will be watching for the same tell as before: whether 0xf7A4 returns the $HYPE to Bybit or routes it elsewhere.
