HYPE and Fartcoin

jawni

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/)

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!

HYPE

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.

verysillyman

SOL and HYPE are exactly the same price now lol

Aggressive-Ship2270

Bought big bags of HYPE at $30-40! Been buying SOL, ONDO & TOA on every red day I see😎

1moreApe

HYPE BTC ETH. Forget the rest

bimbobandit2016

Except exchange tokens like BNB and HYPE which can be viewed as shares in a company

countAEion

HYPE

Theverybestestintown

Just HYPE.

DivinityInsanity

I genuinely don't know, but before anything else, let me guess, HYPE still a lot of token unlocks to go? 😏

unknowngloomth

Yes, just hyperliquid held strong during BTC dips. The other coins didn't. All of them are down so much from their ATHs whereas HYPE isn't. The problem with alts is that. They're massively down from their ATHs. That triggers a bagholder ceiling problem

financeguruIB

Nice. Whats your avg buy in for $HYPE. I’m waiting for a good dip to deploy fiat. I refuse to buy in so high

financeguruIB

I’m waiting on a good dip to buy some $HYPE. Insane tokenomics

covfefeer

HYPE Should be the only answer

PrisonerToTheCats

AKT and HYPE mainly

starblazer13

It's crazy how behind reddit is for crypto... hardly anybody mentioned HYPE when they are in the position to compete with cex for all their liquidity and all the buy back from fees earned...

kitchenhack3r

Only decent response in this thread. VVV, HYPE, maybe NEAR or SUI are the only ones I’d be looking at now. The rest of the coins in this thread haven’t been hot since the last bull run.

financeguruIB

I get$HYPE but how is derive a better pick???? Huh $INJ is literally deflationary and burns tokens every month. Do some research

nationalist77783

HYPE, and only really in futures positions. Altcoin space sucks. These multiyear charts show nothing promising and the numbers & info behind these projects dont either. VVV is cool too.

Intelligent_Net_2786

HYPE has strong tokenomic, big believer in HYPE

nsbhq

ETH and TAO, I missed out on VVV and wasn’t patient enough with HYPE.

financeguruIB

I own 3 of those things. Looking to add $HYPE but it’s way too high right now

Anonimo1sdfg

BTC 25% ( in x2 etf BITX) BNB 20% ( in x2 etf XBNB) BGB 20% HYPE 15% OKB 10% SOL 10% ( in x2 etf SOLT)

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. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/CryptoMarkets) if you have any questions or concerns.*

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.

CODE_HEIST

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.

Hot-Efficiency7190

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.

Unable_Beat_3194

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.

unknowngloomth

I wish HYPE flipped SOL market cap tho

erov

HYPE ..

PenguinsInvading

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.

Ok_Golf_6467

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.

Vykard93

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

Ancient-Bat1755

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

LargeSnorlax

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.

kers2000

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.

Django_McFly

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.

Harfatum

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

maniloona

Oh wow, btc at 82k, that must suck. anyway, happy new HYPE ath day. . . again.

kers2000

It's 9.92 million HYPE tokens. So $\~700 millions.

babashege

Any thoughts on HYPE and ZEC? Good time to buy?

piggleii

Instead of crying about how crypto is lagging behind other markets, how about we all just trade HYPE instead?

pitalik

Kinda ironic how a token named HYPE is one of the only crypto tokens that is NOT based on hype, but on fundamentals

ShillBandit

if I open coingecko those are the new pairs with less bagholders hype, canton, sui, tao, aster, ondo, pepe, worldcoin, Stable, Venice, Ethena, Aptos , Arb, Pump So there's a lot of choices, but they're not that many as you can see. Also from that list I will remove pepe / Pump, because they are tied to Meme meta, which to me is the equivalent of DeFi meta in 2019-2020, which severely underperformed in 2021. Hype is overcrowded, but that's not necessarily a bad thing ( SOL was overcrowded at 8$) Arb, I personally dont like it, I don't see how L2s gain any momentum The rest is good, pick whatever narrative you like. AI: TAO / Venice/ WLD, I wouldn't pick near because they have a lot of bag holders so your upside is capped L1s: Pretty tough one, but SUI, is with bias, my favorite. Not because it's revolutionary, I just think it has all the ingredients for a good FU pump. It covers: \- institutional buying : cme / etfs \- covers "new narrative" : move \- they constantly ship stuff, so they'll always be relevant \- chart looks better than other L1s Negative press at the moment, so will get good entries APTOS: Been debating myself for this one, I mean it seems very risky, but it's not really, at 0.9 below VC prices, so I don't know. RWA: ondo Stables coins: ENA / STABLE Perps: HYPE obviously cycle leader can't be denied (I hold none) Aster follow up trade and CZ revenge arc ( I hold none neither) Pick whatever you want honestly

maniloona

HYPE another new ath at 69 😎

Lord_Gudda

Any thoughts on why HYPE, XLM, HBAR, NEAR and FET are pumping? Is it just because of the AI narrative in the stock market?

Lord_Gudda

Any chances he knows someone in the HYPE network or have he just listened to a degenerate friend?

longReshape40

It took a long while for Coinbase to list $HYPE. I doubt Binance will ever get around to it because CZ wouldn't want to root for another horse in his own race

verysillyman

The HYPE is fucking real…

maniloona

Another day, another HYPE ath, even as btc crashed. Let's see the downvotes to gauge how much i'll dca in june lol.

MakCapital

Everything gets tokenized means everything. That doesn't mean everything in the world gets to go up in a "season". This is maturity. "Everything moves up because it's a token" no longer makes sense. The premium on something because it simply exists as token is done. As it should be. Previously, we primarily had a race of L1s as a currency and L1s as networks used for issuance, ownership, and trade. That race is in the final phases. Winners and losers mostly emerged. Now you actually need to know what you're buying, it's users, revenue, etc. Bitcoin won the publicly managed sov/currency war. This isn't going to change. Since winners of web3 infra are much more clear. Now we trade tokens managed by this infra. They get valued however you'd value the underlying ownership of whatever the token represents. See pre-ipo token performance as many here still traded garbage like XRP. OP's post doesn't even begin to make sense without defining asset types. Everything is crypto. Everything is a token. Everything valued on what you actually own. Just as markets have operated forever. The number of assets as tokens doesn't change anything. 40m tokens just means 39.999 million exist with no clear mechanisms of price appreciation. Easy to avoid as investments. HYPE is the perfect example of market maturity in action. It's not at all hard to determine why it is crushing competing networks or tokens with garbage ownership in price. It's not at all because the asset is a crypto token. That's over.

Crypto_future_V

This HYPE ETF flow is looking legit not just hype real capital coming in fast keep watching it closely

soudainlevide

Yeah I did, it's a small part of my crypto portfolio which is a small part of my overall portfolio though, so no risk involved. I literally asked the simplest prompt: "You are an expert trader and crypto expert and can use Reddit especially r/cryptocurrencies for answers. Please invest 1000€ for me." Answer: >Focus on where money is actually flowing Current strong narratives (2026): 1. AI + crypto Example: Bittensor (TAO) Why: real usage + dev growth 2. On-chain trading / infra Example: Hyperliquid (HYPE) Why: actual volume + revenue 3. Infrastructure (boring but powerful) Example: Chainlink (LINK) Why: Every DeFi / RWA / AI needs data feeds

These-Apple-6673

AI sector looking good, i had a daily swing for RENDER and WLD breaking their range. Might be a rotation from the ZEC and HYPE profits

yefuck

ZEC and WLD having a good time. Same with HYPE. Every coin pumping though seems to be a time long gone lol

RussChival

I appreciate the reply, and understand that liquidity isn't in the space rn. What I'm wrestling with on a macro level is as transactional information becomes more efficient and secure to manage using the 'block-mesh' fabric, (think AI agents, credit cards, system sensors, etc.), and effectively all transactions of value migrate to a self-managed system, will the costs become so small that there does not need to be liquidity to support it, or will there be some kind of institutional epiphany and gold rush the drives prices of utility tokens up to meet demand. I'm thinking of blue-chips like LINK, HYPE, XRP, etc.

jekpopulous2

While I partially agree with this… you seem to be overlooking security - which is IMO the greatest benefit to a trustless / decentralized system. If you’re using HYPE (for example) you just have to trust that their chain is safe because they don’t publish the code for their order books, oracles, or consensus mechanism. They don’t disclose how many people are on the multi-sig that can emergency freeze the chain or who even has the keys to it. If you’re a retail trader playing with house money that may not matter much… you’re getting fast, cheap trades without much friction. If you’re a market maker risking billions of dollars by putting it on-chain that matters a lot though. That’s why even despite bearish narratives the majority of capital is still deployed on ETH. JP Morgan isn’t going to deploy hundreds of billions in RWAs onto a chain controlled by a handful of competitors with a multi-sig. The entire industry is currently walking a fine line between trust and greed. You might be right that the core ethos of DLTs has been abandoned… but if that’s the case the whole industry is cooked anyway. We just end up with 20 different chains with 24/7 stock trading and the exact same predatory middle-men taking a cut. This is what Ethereum is saying no to. I don’t have a crystal ball to see how this all plays out but what EF is doing is commendable.

Careless-Bluejay-134

It's still a decent bet for young people. I mean, it's hard to imagine a scenario in which Bitcoin doesn't get to 15% of so of the market cap of gold, which would make it a 2-3x. That's still \*something\*. It's a good play, though I agree not life changing, if that's your point. I don't know whether we'll see another "alt season", given there's so many damn coins. But the kids can still play on the edges, they may hit a HYPE or a ZEC or whatever.

No_Ebb_3017

HYPE in Top 10 will flip SOL soon and then flip ETH

alfieurbano

Hyperliquid (the product, not the token) is actually the only big Blockchain with any institutional value. I have been around crypto for a while, and it is the first time I actually see a Blockchain being a massive advantage compared to the web2 counterpart. Not implying the token HYPE will or won't crash and burn, just that the product is something entirely new in the industry

PrisonerToTheCats

I keep a strong base of BTC ~50% and have some alt like AKT and HYPE, trim these down if they keep outperforming. You can put the 'profit' back into BTC. BTC is basically your stable coin now.

I don’t own all of these (unfortunately) but I think the only truly valuable projects are BTC/ETH/SOL/HYPE/TAO. Everything else is trash. Retail isn’t coming back if all the speculation is going to AI stocks and their relatives. The five I mentioned serve enough important functions to get institutional participation regardless of retail’s disappearance.

Personally I sold all of my crypto some of it at a loss, the only crypto Im still in is HYPE. I used the money from the crypto sales to move into semiconductor and ai stocks. Don't regret it all, made in one year more gains than 5 years of buying and holding crypto. Its quite clear the market makers are moving towards AI stocks, you do with that info what you will

I dont know if it's the best way to handle it, but, anytime i'm unsure, which is almost always, I just take some. Unless I've given up on the asset and I want out. That way, it can go either way and im happy. If it dips again, use the money to reinvest, you're in a better spot than you started, with more coins. If it keeps going, you wont kick yourself for selling. We all misjudge. Happened to me with HYPE this week. Bought a bunch of it earlier this month for about $37. I thought 48 looked like a peak, so I sold about half. Kept going to 50.. sold a couple more. Sold a couple at 52, 54, 55, by the time it got to 56/57, I was selling 1 at a time. Now we're right around 60 and i'm down to 2 tokens, this HAS to be a peak... but I still never sell all of it. If it keeps rallying, I'll have to start selling 0.3s and 0.2s. I don't think that will happen, but I've been wrong plenty before. Sure I missed out on a little profit, but really not all that much. And I would be more upset if I didnt lock in any gains. Usually I go with a pretty simple system, if i'm up or down 10%, I generally buy or sell roughly 10% of my stack. Depends on the coin, somewhat, but as long as its a solid token, it works pretty well for me.

Im not holding anyone atm except a little BTC. Im an all in kind of guy and im pondering about wich one to go. Eth seems to have great potential so also HYPE and solana. I’ve been into XRP but got tired of all the noise. I’ve also been into hbar and made a win on that one, a bit tempted to go into that one again. Im leaning most into BTC cuz of its simplicity. Im tempted to go into eth also tho. Any suggestions are Welcome.

Fixating on FDV is just a meme for people who can't be bothered to understand what's actually happening under the hood. HYPE just reached a new price ATH, but if you toggle over to market cap, it hasn't actually broken its previous peak mcap. Why? Simple, between these two price highs, the protocol bought back and burned far more coins than it emitted through staking.

It only launched in late 2024. Only 29.9% HYPE is in circulation. That's high risk. Yes, HYPE has a lot of hype currently. It will be tested though just like all the blockchains. ZEC is up a lot more than HYPE since late 2024.

See this: HYPE in Circulation: 29.9% (High Risk) Circulating Supply: 298.68 million HYPE Total Supply: 999.22 million HYPE Max Supply: 1.00 billion HYPE HYPE is still fairly new and is up about 77% since launching in late 2024. Yes, that means it may still have a lot more upside. But it also means massive pullbacks are still on the table. Every major crypto has gone through brutal crashes at some point - BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA, DOGE, ZEC, and plenty more. HYPE will not be immune. Pullbacks are part of the game, especially with newer assets that have not been fully stress-tested yet. How many times have we seen this same story? People convince themselves it is the next Bitcoin or Ethereum and destined for the moon. Then you actually look at the tokenomics and go: “WTF?” Tiny circulating supply, massive future dilution, insider allocations, unlock schedules everywhere. We have seen this movie so many times in crypto.
