The average Grayscale ETF is BEARISH, with a -10% performance at month +1 post-launch $HYPG, their staked $HYPE ETF, started today. Will the same pattern repeat? I’m not so sure. 1. Most of the assets Grayscale launched as ETFs had a large share of insider allocations in their tokenomics, which made the dump easier through strong outflows. See the attached screenshot for the assets (ChatGPTed of course). 2. Grayscale will be the most reputable asset manager to launch a $HYPE ETF: -> Bitwise and 21Shares, which dominate atm, have a combined $23B in AUM, while Grayscale alone reports $35B+. 3. Grayscale’s ETF involves staked $HYPE asap, meaning additional yield. 4. Grayscale announced the lowest management fee on the market, at 0.29%. 5. Unlike other large assets launched as ETFs by Grayscale, this one does not have a “bigger competing issuer” expected to arrive soon and potentially trigger large outflows, leaving room for potential upside speculation. BTC had BlackRock/Fidelity in the same wave, ETH had Fidelity, etc. => $HYPE is one of the biggest performers of the moment, and it was not “predictable” through a product like ETHE before. There is very little potential for large funds waiting to dump on retail inflows. @Grayscale, prepare yourselves for an upgrade to your average month +1 asset performance. Hype is going to explode. You are early if you buy now. Hyperliquid.

Kinetiq just became a top 3 LST by TVL and flipped Lido in FDV. (Congrats @0xOmnia 👏) This is the first step toward massive attention for everything being built around Hyperliquid, and that attention will only grow after every new $HYPE ATH. Every extra $1B added to $HYPE’s market cap makes CT even more HL-maximalist, and thinking that maximalism won’t spill over into the ecosystem is a mistake in my opinion. -> The main lending/borrowing dApp, @HyperlendX, has $560M in TVL for a $16.5M FDV: a 34x ratio, while 27% of the tokens are staked. Aave has $13.9B in TVL for a $1.32B FDV: a 10x ratio, with only 13.9% of tokens staked. Sounds like a mispricing to me. Imagine thinking Solana’s massive run last cycle wouldn’t spill over into its ecosystem. What other major Ethereum project that contributed to its success can we look at? Uniswap. I’m still building @HyperSwapX, and I still want it to become one of the biggest keystones of the Hyperliquid ecosystem. People often say that having a DEX inside the ecosystem of a DEX may not make much sense, and I couldn’t disagree more. -> Hyperliquid does not offer the same kind of strong yield source during ranging markets as a well-calibrated AMM pool. -> Spot listing costs are extremely high for any project that wants to launch a token in the ecosystem without a large dedicated budget. -> Some spot pairs will not have as much depth on the order book as they can have in our liquidity pools. Oh, and we’re not just a classic AMM DEX. -> You can tap trade on Hyperswap. -> You can trade on Hyperliquid through Hyperswap. -> You can predict on Hyperliquid through Hyperswap. -> You can pair trade on Hyperswap. And there is so much more to come. We’ve also burned the entire core contributors’ allocation + 75% of Hyperswap revenues, resulting in more than 21% of the total supply being burned forever. That’s Hyperliquid-aligned. Why am I even comparing Hyperswap to Uniswap? It’s far better. Hyperliquid. Higherliquid. Hyperecosystem. Reminder, this is the Hyperliquid Ecosystem ⤵️
