Hyperliquid Labs completed a seven-day unstaking of 3.75 million HYPE, worth about $330 million, and moved the tokens to its spot balance for an over-the-counter deal with an undisclosed institution, according to Onchain Lens. The deal avoids public-market sales.
So far, 1.875 million HYPE, or half the allocation, has gone to five OTC buyer wallets. Each received 375,000 tokens.
Why it matters
The distribution moves a large block of HYPE to institutional buyers without routing it through public markets. The institution’s identity and the terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Market impact
The transfers confirm distribution of half the allocation, but do not establish whether or when the remaining tokens will move. The buyer wallets and any further transfers are the clearest signals to watch for the next stage of the deal.
