Hyperliquid’s Edge Expands
Update to Coinbase's earlier Hyperliquid deep-dive — HYPE +48% since. Oil perps exceeded $1B in a weekend during geopolitical tension; HIP-3 now ~30% of HL volume, with S&P 500 and oil contracts in the top-5. 500K HYPE staked per HIP-3 market tightens float. The feared April unlock of 9.9M HYPE came in at only 330K (3% of expected) — the dilution event was mostly phantom overhang. Bitwise Europe launched a HYPE staking ETP; US BHYP filing passes 85% of staking rewards to shareholders. Grayscale and 21Shares also filing.
