Hyperliquid is a layer one (L1) blockchain built around decentralized trading, with its flagship platform designed primarily for perpetual futures and spot markets. The ecosystem extends well beyond its decentralized exchange (DEX), supporting additional services such as borrowing and lending, real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, and a fully integrated Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) environment that allows Ethereum-compatible smart contracts to run on the network. The network operates on a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism and functions as a smart contract platform, positioning it as a broad infrastructure layer for decentralized finance (DeFi) rather than a single-purpose application. HYPE is the network's native token, with a capped maximum supply of 1 billion. Within the Hyperliquid ecosystem, the token serves governance and utility functions tied to the operation of the chain and its associated exchange-based activities.
An early $HYPE wallet is taking profit nine hours after withdrawing 500K tokens from Hyperliquid — and the move lands right as price broke above $67 to a new all-time high.
Sprecher's framing lands less as a market-cap claim and more as a regulatory challenge: 70% of decentralized perps flow, weekend oil trading ICE can't touch, and a clear ask for Dodd-Frank to either…
Sprecher also flagged Hyperliquid's SpaceX perps as a market that could outsize the June 11 IPO itself, and asked why regulators tolerate a DeFi venue that traditional exchanges cannot match.
NYSE parent ICE already works with OKX on oil perps and has a Polymarket stake — Sprecher's open framing of the talks reframes the lobbying as market-entry prep rather than a regulatory ambush.
The wipe wasn't a macro move or a token-specific catalyst — it was bad oracle data, and it liquidated 405 users in under half an hour.
Galaxy Digital has unstaked 1 million HYPE tokens — valued at approximately $61.16 million — and has begun selling…
Bitwise staked its HYPE ETF thesis on the protocol's fee-buyback mechanics and 24/7 markets, with the firm now allocating 10% of management fees to buy HYPE for its own balance sheet.
A Lemniscap-led round closed 3x oversubscribed, with $1M earmarked as payout reserve — Hypernova wants to rewrite the B-book incentive problem that haunts every retail prop firm.
Grayscale is in negotiations to seed its proposed Hyperliquid ETF with roughly $115 million in HYPE tokens, a move that…
A near-billion-dollar liquidation cascade — 93% longs — shows leverage built through May's range got cleared in a single session, with BTC and ETH carrying the wipeout.
The same wallet has now absorbed 3.55M $HYPE — roughly $170.7M notional at a $48 average — since April 14, the kind of one-address accumulation that gets a token on institutional watchlists.
The world's largest digital asset manager is now publicly framing Hyperliquid as a top-tier perps venue — a legitimacy stamp that matters more for institutional capital flows than the volume figure…
The BitMEX co-founder argues early investors dump unlocks to fulfil fiduciary duty, and the only projects that hold value are those that route cash flow back to holders — Hyperliquid as the model.
The market isn't fragmenting the way early-cycle DEX data suggested: nearly four-fifths of top-ten volume still routes through Hyperliquid, and a $50M Variational round is now pulling retail flow at…
BHYP launched May 15 and is the first HYPE ETF structured with native staking — a wrapper design that flips the usual spot-ETF trade-off between yield and access.
BTC trades below Tom Lee's $76K bull-market threshold while futures open interest climbs and short positioning accelerates — derivatives flow now points the same direction as price.
That's more than four times the rate spot BTC ETFs managed in their debut window, and the cleanest cross-asset benchmark for what a strong institutional launch looks like in this cycle.
The Bitwise Hyperliquid ETF (BHYP) recorded its largest ever single-day inflow on Tuesday, pulling in $19.05 million in…
An anonymous trader created a fresh wallet 46 days ago, deployed $5 million in USDC to buy HYPE, and walked away with…
Two distinct whale flows on the same token within hours — a known Hyperliquid address adds to a $7.96M three-day accumulation while a brand-new wallet drains Coinbase Prime custody.
Where Zipp's editorial desk has weighed in on this token.
Bitcoin prints its worst quarter since 2022 while Circle nets a bank charter and SWIFT goes on-chain. The crowd is flinching, but the rails are still being built.
BTC just printed its worst quarter since 2022, $4.67B left spot ETFs, and Strategy broke an eight-year buying streak. Read that as bearish, and you're the consensus. Read it as a setup, and you're early.
A brutal quarter and a steady price can both be true. Today's tape reads the difference between conviction and capitulation.
Spot BTC ETFs bled $85M while BlackRock quietly snapped $250M, exposing a brittle floor under the recovery narrative.
With $527M walking out of BTC ETFs and Ethereum staking in flux, the on-chain money is hunting for yield that survives a stress test.
Strategy's first BTC sale since 2020 collides with a record MiCA win for Ripple and Vitalik's Lean Ethereum rebuild, and the crowd can't decide whether to flinch or ape.
