Key Highlights
- HYPE token soared to an all-time high of $64.48, maintaining levels above $60 throughout Monday’s trading session
- Institutional capital flows totaling $72M entered HYPE exchange-traded funds last week from 21Shares, Bitwise, and newly filed Grayscale products
- The platform’s automated buyback mechanism allocates 97–99% of trading revenue to token repurchases

- Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe projects HYPE could surge beyond the $100 milestone
Hyperliquid (HYPE) has reached unprecedented price levels, propelled by a convergence of institutional ETF adoption, an aggressive token repurchase strategy, and expanding platform utilization. The digital asset peaked at $64.48 before settling near the $60 threshold.
The competition for HYPE-based financial products has intensified dramatically. Bitwise introduced BHYP on the NYSE Arca exchange, while 21Shares debuted THYP on the Nasdaq. These investment vehicles collectively attracted $72.38 million in capital inflows during the previous week—a substantial increase from the $2.52 million recorded the week prior.
Grayscale has officially entered the competition. Bloomberg’s ETF specialist James Seyffart verified that Grayscale submitted an updated registration statement for a HYPE investment trust, proposing the ticker symbol GHYP. The documentation identifies Anchorage Digital Bank as the custody provider and Bank of New York Mellon as the administrative partner.
Grayscale’s submission incorporates a staking component. Should regulatory authorities approve, the trust could be rebranded as the Grayscale Hyperliquid Staking ETF, potentially capturing staking yields in addition to token price appreciation.
Token Repurchase Program Generates Persistent Buying Momentum
Hyperliquid channels between 97% and 99% of platform trading fees toward systematic HYPE token acquisitions from secondary markets. Approximately 210,000 HYPE tokens were repurchased during the past week. The protocol’s assistance fund currently controls 44.52 million tokens, having executed cumulative buybacks totaling 26.81 million HYPE. The aggregate value of repurchased tokens has surpassed $1.16 billion.
Perpetual futures Open Interest climbed to a historic $2.95 billion on Monday, according to CoinGlass data. Hyperliquid commands approximately 70% of on-chain perpetual futures market share and represents roughly 7% of aggregate perpetual contract open interest across all trading platforms.
Trader LSTRADER, communicating via X platform, observed that his previous all-time high projection had been achieved. He suggested the subsequent phase might involve momentum trading with tactical entries during retracements, identifying upcoming resistance zones.
New Product Lines Amplify Revenue Generation
Hyperliquid’s recently launched HIP-4 prediction market processed 6.05 million contracts during its inaugural day and equaled Polymarket’s two-week Bitcoin binary contract volume within a mere 48-hour period. Additional product offerings translate to increased fee generation, which directly fuels the token buyback mechanism.
From a technical analysis perspective, HYPE is trading significantly above its 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day exponential moving averages. The Relative Strength Index registers at 75, suggesting overbought territory, while the MACD indicator confirms sustained bullish momentum. Critical resistance thresholds are positioned at $70.04 and $83.51 according to Fibonacci extension calculations.
Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe has openly declared his expectation for HYPE to break through the $100 price level.
