HYPE

Piddler509

I would select defi AAVE, DEX Uniswap or HYPE. Ethereum is also pretty interesting but all utility crypto is interesting to me!!

Party-Brief3166

It is a gamble out of the top 20, but I'm betting on SOL, SUI and HYPE for the next cycle. Holding other bags that might never recover.

Prior_Parsley3960

I'll just leave this part here: \>"The Bitmex co-founder built his reputation on bold trades. He often exits a position just as fast as he enters it. Hayes has talked up tokens like [Hyperliquid’s HYPE](https://beincrypto.com/arthur-hayes-dumps-hype-near-reversal/), Zcash, and Worldcoin in the past. He then quietly closed those positions once sentiment turned. Hayes and his Bitmex co-founders pleaded guilty in 2022 to Bank Secrecy Act violations tied to the exchange’s anti-money-laundering failures. President Trump pardoned all three in March 2025, wiping out the convictions."

Savings-Carry8796

Yeah but a ton of events happened since then. And so no, BTC is not a solid investment nymore. the HYPE IS OVER GUYS!

PuzzleheadedBell4057

DCA monthly on the 15th into BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, HYPE, LINK, TAO, ZEC and RENDER $100 ea. Have a round-up on my checking account that I empty monthly to fund Doge - about $20-$30/month.

HYPE

CatPeopleBleaux

Ill bring back an old school one for yall OGs. CORE/CVault Finance/Delta. While they have definitely pissed off all the people who gave them a $100M treasury(value during last bull run, now around $60M), HYPE took most of their ideas and built their platform, along with 100s of forks from others. The difference though is the locked liquidity and mechanisms to create value for the users, devs and platform. Delta flopped bc of the very reason you mentioned. They broke Uniswaps trade algo and Hayden Adams booted them from the platform, showing they are centralized at their core also.  The rub here is they haven't been heard from in years. Theyll trade the treasury every once in a while but nothing on TG. I was an OG investor in CORE LP1 and went heavily into Delta. There is a lot to be mad about from that perspective but the treasury is still there. If they were scammers, that money would have already been gone. I've chalked my money as a loss, but I do hope they stay true to the statement that they'll launch during the next bull run. And while BTC was strong this last one, ETH never sustained ATH.  They are ETH maxis so I would guess in a couple of years, theyll come back and launch the project. Until then, it's a bunch of bullshit of nothing but id keep it on your radar once ETH season pops off. 

Omnomnomnivor3

the war may ramp up or end anytime, but HYPE is a dangerous market rn, could have short when it was around 70 mb

Doritos707

I think HYPE is a prime candidate for shorting yes. The question is can you tolerate being liquidated a few times before your call is actually the right one? Because 99.99% of the times the market makers will hunt for long or short and move things sideways before you get the actual piece of the pie going down heavy from 50 billion market cap to probably 5 billion if not less. Shorting/longing is gambling and the house will always try to flush you/liquidate you.

jlwapple

True, but I'd like to make a little from HYPE in the short run and then swap it back for even more AAVE.

master-beast-72

the title says "go short" but the post body says you want to buy HYPE — just clarifying which direction you're thinking. on the thesis itself: Hyperliquid's revenue is directly tied to perps trading volume. geopolitical uncertainty (Iran, oil prices, risk-off sentiment) typically does two things simultaneously: broad crypto prices drop AND trading volumes spike as people hedge/speculate. so HYPE's business actually has some counter-cyclical protection that pure speculation plays don't. AAVE isn't a dead coin fwiw — it's been generating consistent protocol revenue and the lending market is real. the "bro it's 2026" comment undersells it. main risk with HYPE is that a lot of its valuation reflects expected future exchange growth, not just current fees. if volume stagnates or a competitor takes market share, that premium compresses. neither AAVE nor HYPE is an obvious "safe" trade in a geopolitical risk scenario — they just have different exposures.

blurBrake

shorting crypto based on geopolitical tensions is high stakes gambling, especially with a volatile token like HYPE

CEDoromal

I'm just gonna say that there a glitch with HYPE right now wherein if you send your coins to 0xfefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefefe your coins become part of a huge pool which you may want to do if you're a serious investor

Doritos707

100%. Bro its the first cycle for this coin. Just from what happened with SOL last bullrun (not comparing the two coins). It will probably go all the way to 10$ or lower. There is no way this HYPE coin of diluted value of 55 Billions doesnt crash hard

PuzzleheadedBell4057

ICP is a good choice, I just believe HYPE provides better tokenomics.

Хороший пост! За OI Hyperliquid слежу давно — рост впечатляет. Я как раз сделал бесплатный инструмент для анализа таких моментов. Показывает сигналы на основе 5 методов сразу, включая анализ стакана. Могу ссылку дать. Кто-то уже входит в HYPE или ждёте коррекцию?

Both HYPE and JTO can reach 100 USD. JTO Trading app still in testing stage, when live ,people will stake JTO. Half od HYPE tokens is staked. JTO drop is an opportunity to buy more at a lower price

HYPE

LavoP

Hyperliquid: Best-in-class perps trading solution. CEX solutions are trying to compete now but lag when it comes to global availability, variety of assets, and liquidity. Buying HYPE token gives you direct exposure to one of the most used products in crypto, unlike buying COIN stock (exposure to the business as a whole not just perps product) and there’s no way to invest in Asian exchanges like Binance. Aave: Borrow against tokenized assets. This is one of the main use cases of crypto. I have personally borrowed against yield bearing crypto and used the borrowed assets in the real world which allowed me to spend without selling my crypto assets. This is getting more and more powerful with more assets coming on chain like stocks, commodities, etc. Aave is the market leader in permissionless lending. Normally loaning against stock portfolios and other assets was exclusive to the wealthy but Aave democratizes it. Uniswap: Create liquidity for any tokenized asset. A large part is memecoins and stupid things with zero value but as more and more things are able to be tokenized, being able to create liquidity for literally anything is an extremely powerful primitive.

jawni

SOL It's just got too good of a moat, keeps evolving. improving, and maturing, doesn't seem like any chain is going to be able to dethrone it as the "general purpose L1". HYPE comes in second, definitely has great momentum and fundamentals, but I don't know if it will be able to defend its market share forever.

Add SOL and maybe HYPE

Post is by: cosmodrome-lab and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1uqg3zn/hype_is_trading_at_70_buyback_is_down_46_from/ The protocol publicly claims that 97–99% of trading fees flow into the Assistance Fund to buy back HYPE. The real figure is 80–84%. The gap is not an error — it is built into the architecture. HIP-3 deployers capture up to 50% of fees generated on their markets. A portion flows to HLP and operational expenses. None of this is a violation. This is simply how the system works. What matters more is the trend in absolute terms. Buyback volume has declined for three consecutive quarters: — Q4 2025 (peak): $241M — Q1 2026: $176M — Q2 2026: $122–130M That is a 46% decline from peak. Over the same period, the token price moved from $25 to $70. The buyback does not explain this. Something else does — and we will get to that. 77% of the supply has not reached the market yet Per Tokenomist data: 222 million tokens are in circulation (22.24%). 777 million remain locked (77.76%). The full emission schedule runs to November 2029. Unlocks occur on the 6th of every month. On June 6, 2026 — an unlock date — HYPE dropped 12% in a single day. That is not a coincidence. The largest single allocation is Future Emissions and Community Rewards: 389 million tokens (38.89% of total supply). This pool releases via a cliff mechanism — meaning a large tranche can hit at an unannounced moment. The exact amount that will remain locked on January 1, 2028 cannot be calculated from any publicly available data. That opacity is not accidental. The arithmetic at current prices: each monthly Core Contributor unlock of approximately 43 million tokens represents roughly $3 billion in potential supply pressure. Monthly buyback in Q2 2026 was $48–53 million. That covers less than 2% of the notional overhang. The gap is not covered by protocol mechanics. So what is holding the price? Three mechanisms operating in sync. First — managed float. A significant share of unlocked tokens does not reach the open market. They flow into staking in Hyper Foundation-affiliated nodes (which control 49.3% of staked supply) or are transferred via OTC arrangements. Only a thin layer of supply ever reaches open trading. This is not enforced by smart contract. It is a governance decision that cannot be verified on-chain in advance. Second — institutional absorption. Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. (Nasdaq: PURR) holds 20+ million HYPE. Three ETFs launched in May–June 2026: Bitwise BHYP, 21Shares THYP, Grayscale HYPG — attracting $111 million in inflows in their first weeks. These structures move supply off the crypto market. But at $65 per token, the fully diluted valuation is $63–67 billion, with only 22% of supply in circulation. The overhang math does not change. Third — narrative. While buyback was declining quarter over quarter, Arthur Hayes was publicly calling a $150 price target, the Bitwise CIO was publishing memos calling HYPE "deeply undervalued," and a16z was accumulating a $90+ million position. Institutional narrative outweighed fundamental trend. That is how price holds when mechanics weaken. Regulators are drawing their own conclusions In a single quarter: the UK Financial Conduct Authority added Hyperliquid and Hyper Foundation to its list of unauthorized firms. CME Group and ICE addressed the CFTC and members of Congress. The Monetary Authority of Singapore added the platform to its Investor Alert List. Four separate jurisdictions. One quarter. Not a coincidence. One question nobody is asking publicly Hyperliquid's founder, Jeff Yan, is a US citizen. He was born and raised in Palo Alto, California. Hyperliquid is structured as an offshore entity with American users explicitly classified as Restricted Persons. The United States is one of two countries in the world — the other is Eritrea — that taxes its citizens on worldwide income regardless of where they live or where their business is incorporated. Under the Controlled Foreign Corporation rules and the GILTI mechanism — Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income — a US citizen who controls a foreign corporation generating $900 million in annual profit potentially carries US tax obligations regardless of offshore registration. Applied to Hyperliquid Labs, that figure could reach $300 million or more per year. This is not an accusation. It is the structural mathematics of the US tax code. No public information exists confirming how, or whether, this structural contradiction has been resolved. That question remains open. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

That last part of your AI generated answer is exactly what I'm talking about though. The biggest hurdle is regulatory changes, and HYPE is not doing anything to get ahead of them. In fact it's the exact opposite. They have been pretty forthcoming about the fact that they aren't trying to do anything to become onshore compliant. I was a big HYPE fan until I realized they weren't adjusting to the regulations that were very obviously coming. You can't just cut the United States out of your protocol and expect it to last. We have so much liquidity here and not everyone is going to be willing to VPN to purchase hype if it comes to that. Regulations will be the death of this one unfortunately if they don't adjust

diamondblaster67

HYPE has long-term potential because it’s backed by Hyperliquid, a decentralized trading platform that already has significant real-world usage and generates trading fees. Unlike many crypto projects, it has a functioning product, its own high-speed blockchain, and a token that’s used for staking, governance, and securing the network. The investment thesis is simple: if Hyperliquid continues attracting more traders and developers, demand for HYPE could grow along with the platform. The biggest risks are increased competition, regulatory changes, and the overall volatility of the crypto market.

jawni

and coincidentally, HYPE, the asset, is relatively less hype-driven than most.

HYPE, a chain that is widely used.

Hyperliquid for me or VVV - I recently joined Collective Shift they've been bang on with their Altcoin predictions this cycle. Made a heap on HYPE because of them

Mike Selig has been very vocal about wanting to bring perpetuals and derivatives onshore which HYPE isn't making an effort to become. How do you see long-term viability when they aren't doing anything to tap into one of the largest markets there are in the US?

This sub has always been cancer, it's never been a good place for discussion, never been a good place for alpha, never been a good place for research. People here are generally *substantially* dumber than the average person on CT. It's just not sustainable to have a community whose content curation is done by popular vote when you have such varying opinions within that community. So it doesn't really matter who is wrong or right, because people don't upvote and downvote based on that. Post anything remotely positive about Cardano or Nano or Algorand or Loopring, and it would get upvoted to the top immediately. Meanwhile the coins that outperformed the market, like SOL in 2022-2024, were vehemently hated for reasons that were either patently false or were obviously going to become false. "It's only pumping for the FTX unlocks", "All the usage is fake", "Institutions won't use SOL", "It had downtime!", "It's only memes!" but anyone with a brain and the ability to do real due diligence could see how wrong all of those were or would become. Or HYPE, an extremely successful project, which used no VC money and airdropped much of the supply. This sub has a hate-boner for VCs, which would make you think HYPE would've been this sub's darling... but no. I don't even think many people here know about it. And then discovery or discussion on any new project is completely worthless here because everyone just assumes it's a cashgrab or scam without doing any critical thinking. If you use this sub, stop, and find something else. [Look into researching the way I recommend here.](np://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1h7e21t/35yo_new_to_cc/m0kzmqp/)

ExpressWorry

Bro I totally get you. There’s “SAFE” in its name right? Like HYPE or PUMP. It can’t go wrong.

Bazaruta

There are. ETH is useful for smart contracts. ZEC and XMR provide privacy on transactions. HYPE is kinda like a stock, like binance and coinbase stock. Just to name a few. But true for the average coin, there is none…yet people throw money at it. When a 5 min google search would tell you that, the thing you are paying for is worthless.

Bazaruta

There are good alts, ETH, TAO, HYPE are good. ZEC kinda is too. But I agree. Most are trash, if people researched a bit before throwing money at it, they would so much better!

BTC right now it’s basically a high beta tech stock. When people want risk assets with great return they pile in…else they sell or don’t care about it. Honestly most crypto it’s based on hoping for a greater fool to buy off you at a better price. That’s why meme coins are a thing. Meanwhile stuff like HYPE, ETH, TAO doesn’t get as much love as I think they deserve. They bring interesting stuff to the table!

NEAR, ORE, CARDS, HYPE. I'd include SOL but it's already my biggest holding, but if I didn't have a lot, I'd be buying that too. Just buy the tokens with good fundamentals.

corpski

We're in a fine place. I'm actually very unattached to the market now and would be looking very much forward to more large market drawdowns. Objectively, this so-called "bear market" has been very mild compared to cycles past. I'm not into Ondo but if you really have a good reason to believe it's going to do extremely well, you should DCA. Been here for a decade. This is not the place to tell people that you're into Solana -- people are too clueless. I said this years ago but nothing has changed here pretty much: [https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1gamlcy/comment/ltn0jki/](https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1gamlcy/comment/ltn0jki/) Luck is certainly a thing, but your alpha is on crypto twitter and that hasn't changed. Keep buying with every agonizing low and sell at every new breaking high. I never trade on leverage. Long-drawn cycles are my bread and butter, and I sit on my ass for months or years. But you need to get the narratives right, and this place has always had a terrible track record for that. So many commenters lack the necessary information and are too emotional, hold silly, outdated, or uninformed biases, or end up holding coins that simply have no chance to ever pump reasonably again. Also, I have no plans of ever truly exiting the market. I've made my peace with that. I have no ability to catch the highest highs or the lowest of lows. The only thing I can manage reasonably is risk. Most important of all, you need ammo. If you can't buy the dip, it'll make things exponentially harder. Make sure to do everything you can to never put yourself in that situation. Manage risks, don't stake or lend out all your stables. The biggest purpose of your stablecoins is to buy cheap coins, not to earn 3-5% per annum. With every monstrous dip, the potential for return becomes so much bigger. Always do your best to be aware of what's happening in the market and which assets actually have the biggest hype, narratives, and promise. Time lines are never always exactly the same for each coin. The narratives change every cycle. It's not that hard to know what's up if you try. Above everything else, stay objective and never be a maxi. For example, there are some truly old coins in the top 10 that I feel don't deserve to be there, and only pump because of certain reasons. I will never turn down an opportunity to make a good long-term trade off that. Since I'm a horrible daytrader, I make it up by setting solid rules, apart from setting rigid buy and sell points. I set a datum point for each coin and sell 20% of all held coins at every 25% price increase, and buy a calculated portion back with every 30-40% drawdown -- subject to the coin's MC, available liquidity, and perceived volatility. Assets that have made me the most in the last few months: HYPE (now the biggest portion of my porfolio, though I didn't intend for it to be), ZEC, BP (thanks entirely to CT). My preference is to buy with growing USD size every time the price dips further into the abyss. I do have a cut-off, where the buying simply stops, and if the price ever gets there, one would have to think - WTF happened to make it actually go that low. The 20-100x's were already made. I'd be happy with doing much less in the future. My YOLO days were back in the previous decade. There's no place for that now, and hopefully ever in the future. If an asset fails the CT narrative and consistently fails to produce results in a reasonably expected time frame when it's supposed to pump along with other assets, it may be time to consider dropping that one.

kingkongy

My personal opinion is that most alts are useless. LINK and HYPE are probably the only ones I still have some amount of faith in because of the use case and tokenomics (mainly hype). Stock markets and ai names sucked a lot of the liquidity and going from more grassroots to now mainstream hurts the retail driven cycles we had in the past where alts would randomly explode 50%. We fighting wall street algos now not just each other 🤣

Django_McFly

Bitcoin. If HYPE crashes I'll buy some but I've been saying that since it hit $40.

Coinlustt

Buy HYPE

Puppyofparkave

The only coin that actually does something IMO is HYPE and even that’s been trading sideways so long I sold at a loss

SooperYuk

That’s fair and I respect that. I’m just being real because I lost tens of thousands of dollars in the stock market doing the same kind of shit. If doubled up, you’re a winner. I bought into XRP between 50 and $.60 and sold at around 4X never looked back. If you want to feel that rush again, check out HYPE, PENDLE, Chainlink, AKT, Zcash etc. I only buy Ethereum when it’s around $16-$1700 and then I flip it. I don’t like coins without maximum supplies.

sigh_duck

Not sure how as the last week was easy money from some Longs to some shorts. You could spot the short's a mile away on anything that ran wicked hot. The longs on the easy money stuff like HYPE, LIT (perps basically). I'm back to cash as of today. BTC's bearish candles giving me the fears.

duc_one

put 100k into btc, 40k HYPE and the rest in blue chip Stocks. dont touch any other Alt coins or chase quick pumps

Mindimension

I suggest DCAing into it… especially any small or big dips. I feel HYPE has a big possibility of still going x2 or x3 from the current price. Do your own research though.

FollowingFriendly505

Recently started a small position in my portfolio filled with what I believe are some of the cryptos most likely to still be around in 2032-34. Since I expect RWAs to be a regular thing in about 4 years, my take (just as almost everyone) is that altcoins centered around financial bottlenecks will become an international standard for banking and investing infrastructure.As for my current portfolio, my holds are SOL HYPE ONDO LINK VIRTUAL MORPHO Even though HYPE and VIRTUAL won't capture value from direct exposure to broad RWA adoption, they are just too hard to simply overlook.

Post is by: PeeOnDusk and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1u4wgb2/lit_lighter_perp_dex_showing_strength/ Lighter Due Diligence: the highest growth ETH L2? Due diligence: Beta on HYPE: Hyperliquid is amazing right now, and I expect them to do well. Perpification of all assets is going way faster that most realized, while tokenization of rwa’s have taken much longer due to the complexity of regulations, cross chain considerations, liquidity concerns, split order books etc. Perps have become the top choice for people to gamble on commodities like gold, silver, oil, and of course stocks and even pre IPO stocks. Volatility is a tailwind for perp dex revenue, and I expect further volatility this summer and rest of the year. Notice I didn’t even mention crypto perps. Even when crypto has low liquidity and mindshare, perp dex’s will still do well as people trade all assets. Lighter is currently much smaller than HYPE. About 2% of both MC and FDV. $LIT alpha: 1. US based: Vlad, the founder of Lighter, has strong connections to both Silicon Valley, DC heavyweights, and NYC tradfi institutions. He has strong connections to Robinhood, and was an early advisor and HS friend to the other Vlad, ceo of RH. RH was an early investor to Lighter, and I expect some collaboration with them in the future, as Vlad mentioned in a few interviews. I expected some integration of the options market form RH may be able to flow through Lighter on chain, or lighter can help RH with the perps in Us market. Vlad is also friends with Mike Selig of the CFTC, and also with David Sacks. Sacks was an early investor in Lighter before divesting and working for the Trump admin. I expect lighter to receive CFTC approval for us perps market and perhaps tokenization way before hyperliquid Ken Griffin, ceo of citadel, personally hired Vlad when he was 19. Citadel looks to be the perfect partner to provide liquidity to lighter. Citadel would make money on spreads. They also would need to buy $LIT token to be included in the liquidity pool as that’s how the tokenomics are set up 3) token buybacks. Lighter is using 100% of the revenue to buy back the $LIT token, and their buybacks is about 150% higher than $HYPE as % of market cap 4) Vlad also has strong relationships with EF, Lubin, and Vitalik, BMNR and tom Lee. Excited to see where these partnerships go. And I wouldn’t be surprised if these orgs invest in lighter as ethereum community is in their lowest sentiment. They need a killer app. Price action looks to look good with higher lows in the last 5 weeks. Some momentum recently with Bankless podcast selling eth and rotating into LIT. Conclusion: I think this is a high risk, high reward play. Not something to ape into with full port, but good 10% allocation MAX to see how well perp DEX’s do with regulatory tailwinds. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

unknowngloomth

BTC, HYPE, VVV. I've been looking for some mid and low market cap coins which aren't massively down from its ATHs, it must have clean tokenomics. It must be around like for like 1 year. It must be a descent and growing volume and liquidity. I haven't found any so far..

Xennenial

So are you only referring to the HYPE token or the Hyperliquid perp DEX?

jawni

Actually they do kind of matter, and are starting to matter more and more. Look at any of the most important "fundamentals" or metrics, and the top of the list will also be the most valuable protocols. ETH, SOL, BNB, TRX, HYPE, these 5 are kind of in their own league and what do you know? They're also some of the most highest valued chains. The highly valued projects with bad fundamentals? Those are starting to drop off. I mean, it's not perfect, you have projects like pump.fun that make $1m per day and have value accrual to the token, but the token seems dead regardless.

verysillyman

The HYPE is back

AmphoePai

It does mean something. You can stake USDC on Aave and many other services for better yield than bonds, there's many Blockchains that offer tokenized stocks (not just HYPE) which enable after market trading with good liquidity, Ethereum is the infrastructure layer for stablecoins, XLM allows you to bypass services like Western Union, you can support independent creators on Odyssee by gifting the coin, and bypass Youtube/Google censorship. There's so many good and legit uses for crypto, and saying that all the work done by their community is just "nothing", is such a tired talking point.

diamondblaster67

What about HYPE ?

Active-Rope9301

Obviously if you compare it to the traditional definition, that’s more for companies like Apple, Microsoft, etc. I don’t mean any crypto stock is an actual equivalent to traditional blue chips. I mean they’re blue chips by crypto standards. The asset class is insanely risky and frequently fraudulent. BTC/ETH/SOL/HYPE are risky, but not fraudulent and they have real world uses.

I get that. HYPE can get narrative-heavy fast. I try to separate the person/pump from the chart. If structure is messy, I skip it even if the candle looks strong. If the chart confirms and risk is clear, then it becomes a trade idea, not a belief in the coin.

It's obviously HYPE. Maybe NEAR does well too with AI play. For most tokens the time to buy them was 2023 and sell in the last cycle. The next time to buy will be this autumn/winter and sell in 2029. A few will break above the cycle trend.

Have you used HYPE before? It is one of the best platforms if you ever compared it with other perp trading platforms from the last couple years you’ll see they are far ahead of their competition.

I mean we ultimately have three kinds of price movements: going up, down and fluctuating in a small range ( basically no movement). Technically, having multiple scenarios isn't prediction. Because when you're planning for everything that can happen, then you're just being ready. If you could actually predict, then what's the point of having different scenarios, right? When I'm trading a specific pair, I need to make a decision according to the information chart is giving me. If I decide that HYPE/USDT is bullish, then I have to ask myself what is your response when price is trying to break out of the current ceiling? What should I do if it doesn't break? If it breaks the resistance but I have few confirmations, how much should I risk? If instead it goes down and approaches a good support zone (which is something I decide) is it a good place to buy? Or should I wait for a better trigger? Should I see a higher low and higher high in lower timeframes to open a position? What about volume? If it's decreasing should I immediately jump in? What if it's increasing? Maybe I should avoid this position untill I recognize the end of retracement... You see? I could go on for hours. I need to plan for all of these and answer them. In the end if my answer is good enough, I open the position based on my strategy. Obviously, you can't always be correct because we're humans and market is complex. We just need to be right *enough times* so that we make good profit in the cases we are correct which is why Winrate and Reward/Risk need to be analyzed as a pair and not individually.

A 2nd sweep of the lows was likely for BTC. What's more surprising is specific AI/infrastructure alts seem to be curling up from bear market lows. I sold a good chunk of my BTC at the top of the channel and rotated into HYPE and VIRTUALS.

Lord_Gudda

Watching NEAR, HYPE, & FET pumping the last 2 weeks is the so irrational in this bear market.

Looking at HYPE/BTC in trading view. Hype outperformed BTC by 1100%.

Pera wallet on algorand is 2-4s secure transactions for $.003 or less… integrated with various cards, rwa etc Nobody cares except Afghanistan and a few EU energy companies to use it daily. Its easy to use. HYPE and FOMO is where people make money, not on tech. The hype of crypto tech from 2017-2019 is gone. What matters now is which coins make banks and politicians money, and that is via pumping tax dollars to a secure btc fund that the Us gov will buy to pump all their own bag or wharever else they invest into. Beyond quantum scares, i don’t see how high tech efficient blockchains survive as non-profitable

There's not really "blue chips" in Crypto like there is in the stock market. There's Bitcoin, and then there's an altcoin market. Altcoins are fueled entirely by hype. There's tons of them that inflate from nothing every cycle, some stick around, most don't. XRP isn't any more blue chip than SOL or HYPE. Stuff rises to the top from the gutters. This won't really make any sense if you're not really involved in the space and are just looking for buys, but the things you want to discover are things just starting up. Look at X and see how organic the engagement is for it. Look at the sentiment. Look who's involved with the project, how it links to other things. This is where things like [Kaspa](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/kaspa) and [Tao](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bittensor) came from last cycle, it's also where things like Ordinals, sol memes and stuff like CROWN / Memecore etc came from. You want to buy things *before* the hype or *just* when the hype is beginning, but you won't know what that is unless you literally have your fingers on the pulse of the space. If you're a casual speculator, don't bother, by the time you hear about it on Reddit, all the profit opportunity is sucked out of it and people are unloading on you. You have to, as cliched as it sounds, literally do your own research, and you won't be any good at it unless you do it every day. There are no bluechip altcoins. Anything that's run up to the top isn't guaranteed to be anywhere near there in the next cycle, and the 101-1000 ranks are littered with the corpses of those past coins.

HYPE, ZEC, NEAR and ICP are showing extreme resilience. I think the revenue, privacy and AI narratives are the only ones that will print this summer.

I'm a buyer here. will buy double if we touch the $50s. this played out wonderfully last bull. People were saying BTC did nothing when it hit $126 but I was buying in the $20s-$50s. It didn't feel like nothing to me. I totally missed the top and sold some in the $90s. Now I get to buy back like 30% off. anon, do you realize how poorly you can time these markets and still like double or triple your money in 2-3 years? all i need now is for HYPE to catch up with the rest of the market and shit the bed a good bit.

BTC is digital gold (flawed if you ask me, but it was a genius invention and it has the memetic power). ETH is civilizational infrastructure if developers and policymakers keep leaning into it. HYPE is an exchange. It's a cool exchange but it should be valued as just a company. Its FDV is already *higher than* NASDAQ, so some perspective might be good here.

unknowngloomth

Stop shilling HYPE. Let people keep holding their ETH and BTC. Lmao..

Economy-Experience81

the bigger temptation is to sell it for HYPE

antistupidsociety

Now show it compared to HYPE, ZEC, NEAR over the past year lol

kungrolf

HYPE looking good
