Hyperliquid's growing perp share feeds fees into HYPE buybacks even as the market shrinks. Its share among the top 12 perp DEXs rose from 25% in January to 43% in September, below August's 47% peak. Its trailing buyback yield is 3.52% versus 1.51% for the S&P 500, but depends on trading volume and shrinks on fully diluted supply as tokens unlock. Watcher Guru reported plans by the NYSE owner to bring HYPE perps to regulated US markets; $100 remains the chart target. x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  … Show more

Hyperliquid is among the crypto projects proving that real revenue used for buybacks and burns drives the best long-term performance. Tokens without revenue, or whose buybacks do not offset emissions and unlocks, are inflationary assets relying on sentiment. Projects with revenue and value accrual, including Hyperliquid and GEODNET, held up surprisingly well through the bear market. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Binance's spot listing of Hyperliquid's HYPE token is likely its short-term top. Per @coinbureau, HYPE surged near $95 on the announcement. @Kaffchad argues Binance only validates existing volume and retail will chase well past $95; the reply is that this marks the short-term top. x.com  x.com 

Few new hyped token launches are crypto's most bullish feature, concentrating bids in good, fixed-supply tokens without VC scams that buy back supply. Unlike mega equity IPOs and a lack of hyperscaler buybacks, good crypto is structurally healthier than equities, with fewer headwinds and better risk/reward as tokenization stays a dominant theme for the next few years. A correlation shock remains possible, but crypto could recover fastest afterward; this is not the time to turn bearish. x.com 

Hyperliquid, Aerodrome and Sky generate revenue and will be rerated as crypto returns to fundamentals, even as Bitcoin's price action is unnerving. These tokens make money and reallocate it back to holders; projects without revenue, a real path to it, good tokenomics or institutional appeal will be stuck in the old era. x.com 

Hyperliquid, Zcash and NEAR would likely drop 20-30% first if bitcoin falls, and bitcoin has 10-20% downside potential. All three are strong coins, but fundamentals do not matter in that kind of sell-off. Arthur Hayes, who called them a holy trinity, picks real projects, but his timing is the issue: his last big Zcash call came near a top. x.com 

Hyperliquid's HYPE will likely always trade at the highest revenue premium because of trust in its team and its many income streams, some of them, such as stablecoin yield, independent of the market. The product is incredibly sticky, the team is probably the most aligned with its own success of any project in crypto history, and it performed well in the bear market, revenue included. That is part of what buyers pay for when it is compared with other successful projects. x.com 

Beyond Bitcoin, BNB and HYPE are the only two crypto assets with relatively high certainty. HYPE has gone into beast mode even in a bear market, rising from $20-plus to $60-plus, and it remains a top pick. Glassnode said HYPE is the most requested asset for new on-chain metrics. Rival Aster, by contrast, is retreating to small-cap, high-volatility assets after HYPE took the TradFi and RWA opportunity, which limits its ceiling. x.com 

HYPE is selling off because its big buyer has run out of money. The ETF has used up its entire at-the-market offering and is no longer buying, which explains the price action. x.com  x.com 

Hyperliquid's HYPE remains a great token, but other coins edge it out in the near term. It has unrivaled tokenomics and value accrual, clear product-market fit and a high-trust team. Price action looks locally distributive, though within a long uptrend, and part of its value is speculative premium. Well-funded perps competitors and regulatory openings for other venues are starting to play out. It could turn around at any point and is worth buying back, possibly soon. x.com  x.com  x.com
