I've seen a few people on CT saying " $HYPE is over. " Is $HYPE really over after being in a continuous uptrend since November 29, 2024? Is Hyperliquid over after leading the Perpetual DEX market for nearly 2 years with no real competition? Is $HYPE over when HIP-3 has processed $438B+ in volume and HIP-4 has already reached $276M+? Is $HYPE over when there are 720+ Builder Codes and one of the strongest ecosystems in crypto is still expanding? Is Hyperliquid over after starting with zero VC funding and generating over $1.7B in cumulative revenue? No. $HYPE isn't over - This is just the beginning. It made an ATH at $56, corrected to around $22 because of the overall market structure, then came back to print a new ATH at $76. Now it's trading around $58. I believe we'll see another new ATH before the end of this quarter.

BitMart has announced its wind-down, just days after BitMex. It all started with Hyperliquid. The era of Perp DEXs is changing the rules of the game. Which CEX will be next to announce its shutdown? Welcome to the bearmarket.
Important Notice After a careful evaluation of the Company's operating conditions, market environment, and future strategic direction, BitMart has made the difficult decision to commence an orderly wind-down of its trading platform operations. We deeply regret having to make this decision. Key dates: • Jul 26, 2026, 01:30 UTC: New registrations, deposits, and new trading orders will begin to be suspended. • Aug 26, 2026, 01:00 UTC: All trading services will be discontinued. • Jan 31, 2027, 15:59 UTC: Platform operations will officially cease. Withdrawal services will remain available. We strongly encourage all users to close positions, complete KYC (if needed), and withdraw assets as early as possible. Please read the full announcement for important timelines and instructions: 🔗 bitmart.zendesk.com/hc/en-us… Thank you for your trust and support over the years. ❤️

pretty sure youve been hearing about HIP-3 on @HyperliquidX let me explain it simply it stands for Hyperliquid Improvement Proposal 3 one of the biggest upgrades to the Hyperliquid ecosystem. It fundamentally changes who can create perpetual futures markets. Before HIP-3: Only the Hyperliquid team could decide which perpetual markets (perps) were listed. After HIP-3: Qualified builders can launch their own perpetual futures markets without needing approval from the core team. This makes the ecosystem much more permissionless. Why is everyone talking about it? HIP-3 opens the door for markets that weren’t practical before, such as: > Tokenized stocks > Commodities > Crypto assets that aren’t listed on major exchanges > Other niche financial markets Instead of waiting for Hyperliquid to add a market, builders can create it themselves if they meet the protocol’s staking and deployment requirements. HIP-3 increases the utility of the $HYPE token because builders must stake a significant amount of HYPE to deploy markets. If more builders want to launch markets, demand for staking HYPE can increase.

Prediction markets topped $50 billion in trading volume last month, and the biggest names in traditional finance are moving in. Today, with @multicoin, we filed a joint comment supporting the @CFTC 's proposed prediction markets framework. These markets have grown up. The proposed framework gives them what they deserve: durable standards, known in advance, under one federal rulebook. Our comment expresses support for the Commission’s approach and offers two recommendations to make an already strong rulebook even more targeted. Read it here:

Been noticing a lot more FUD around hyperliquid:native recently. Feels like the TL has become pretty net bearish over the past couple of weeks. Funny enough, I remember this same shift in sentiment after the first monthly red candle following the breakout in May. Plenty of people thought the run was over. Instead, HYPE put in another leg higher. Now we’re back in a similar spot. Price has been ranging, sentiment is weak, and everyone seems to be expecting lower. What’s interesting is that even after this pullback, $HYPE is still trading relatively close to its ATH compared to a lot of the market, where many alts are still sitting much much lower than their highs. Could be nothing. Could be everything hyperliquid

The opportunity of a lifetime doesn't care if it's not "convenient" to you. Make it happen. Make something happen. Make anything happen. Hyperliquid. Ethos matters.
$HYPE at 59$ Happening right before our eyes!

We see the FUD around the treasury NFT. Here's what actually happened. A bot was about to snipe the listing and take most of its value from the seller. We stepped in and bought it directly instead, so a real person kept the value instead of a script. Money from the bid went straight back to him, plus one extra NFT on top. That's the full story.
Short story for "legenderysword" > He made an offer of 0.30 WETH ($579.38) > Dev accepted it as the first sale > 4 mins after he accepted the loss > He sold it at 0.0057 WETH ($11.01) 👉 Total Damage: 568 USD Don't be like legenderysword Don't be like HoodAI Dev

Solution: Hyperliquid
Tough times (again)! At least, it appears to be an orderly wind down where users can withdraw their assets. Pro tip: Self custody if you know how to keep your seedphrase safe (@trustwallet) Or use the largest exchange (@binance) with staying power.

Whitelisted HIP-3 deployments are coming. CT is speculating about a KYC for Hyperliquid. imo it's not entirely wrong, but it's more likely feedback from CEXs that want to become deployers. Regulated CEXs need to control who uses their products. Good thing, HL is expanding
new feature observed on hl testnet: stars afaict stars let deloyers make a hip-3 dex address-allowlisted for trading. testnet allowlist size currently is max 10k addresses. non-allowlisted addresses can still submit reduce-only orders / fund accounts. see ktob ("BTC Star DEX") some relevant txs: 0x851e0bc62988fe9e8697042529220801080023abc48c1d7028e6b718e88cd889 (register ktob:BTC) 0x54c1a9c94451ac7e563b0425292214010100c1aedf54cb50f88a551c03558668 (activate star) 0x875b29d555ffdba188d4042529221c01030041baf0f2fa732b23d52814f3b58c (approve trader address) 0x9dbce81f1a86dc269f360425292224010c000004b589faf841859371d98ab611 (unhalt ktob:BTC) 0x3130533baff0a23a32aa0425292ce1010a006b214af3c10cd4f8fe8e6ef47c24 (unapproved address funded) 0x8923485ccfdea73b8a9d0425292d2c01010060426ad1c60d2cebf3af8ed28126 (unapproved address attempts to place order and fails) 0x326fcd720ba84bd833e90425292e06010400e557a6ab6aaad63878c4caac25c2 (approved trader address funded) 0xe070d0c9f5aca692e1ea0425292e33010300e8af90afc56484397c1cb4a0807d (approved trader address places order successfully) can think of a few reasons why this might be useful, but will refrain from speculation for the time being.

instead of aping into another memecoin, i used the money to buy more $HYPE one of the most promising projects in crypto right now am i a Hyperliquid maxi now?
funny how i almost bought this memecoin because someone i really trusted was shilling it he'd been hyping it up for 3 days before launch, telling us to buy in with a good amount of money when he finally dropped the CA yesterday, i was ready to buy until i noticed one big red flag the top 10 wallets owned 80% of the supply i almost ignored it, but i told myself, "lemme wait a few minutes" it didn't even take 5 minutes before the whole thing got rugged

Hyperliquid is currently retracing and that's all most people can see What they don't see is everything happening underneath The team is pushing into RWAs and prediction markets, meeting with regulators, and continuing to generate the revenue that powers $HYPE buybacks. The market can debate the price all it wants but $HYPE is still doing what got it here in the first place shipping, growing, and taking market share
