BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes threw his weight behind Hyperliquid’s HYPE token, framing its struggle as a “David vs. Goliath” battle. Referencing potential rivals, Hayes commented on social media, “…humans like than to support an underdog vs. a perceived unstoppable opponent. $HYPE for the win!” – associating his support with Hyperliquid’s native token. Hyperliquid’s problems began after alleged whale manipulation of the JELLY token price reportedly led to a short squeeze. This event resulted in potential losses nearing $10 million for the exchange’s liquidity providers (LPs), according to reports. And then, what has now become controversial, Hyperliquid’s validator team voted to delist JELLY perpetual contracts and forcibly settle open positions at a predetermined price. Despite the significant potential LP losses from the manipulated trades, the Hyperliquid liquidity pool (HLP) vault itself reportedly still secured an overall profit of $700K. Related: Hyperliquid Bitcoin Whale Speculated to be a Cybercriminal While Hyperliquid assured users it intends to refund affected LPs (explicitly excluding the alleged manipulators), the decision to intervene and force-settle trades drew significant backlash online. Critics accused the DEX team of unprofessionalism and centralization, with some drawing comparisons to the arbitrary actions seen during FTX’s collapse. Echoing these concerns, Bitget CEO Gracy Chen argued that the move—closing a market and dictating a settlement price—set a “dangerous precedent” for decentralized platform interventions. Adding complexity to the situation, on-chain analyst ZachXBT pointed to potential involvement of Binance-linked wallets in the manipulation scheme. Related: Want to Message Binance’ CZ?

The Hyperliquid controversy reignites debates about the inherent challenges DEX platforms face. Balancing open market access with maintaining integrity, transparency, and stability against sophisticated manipulation attempts remains a difficult tightrope walk. Supporters like Hayes view Hyperliquid’s response as decisive action in a tough situation, showcasing resilience. Conversely, critics question the platform’s risk management frameworks and whether the intervention undermines its claims of decentralization.

Tether CEO 'open' to US domestic stablecoin amid regulatory shifts and audit push

Bitcoin’s price hovered above the $87,000 mark as the crypto industry turned its attention to Thursday’s confirmation hearing of incoming SEC Chairman Paul Atkins. Market data also showed that Circle’s flagship stablecoin product USDC topped $60 billion in market capitalization for the first time ever, which likely bodes well for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The leading digital asset is currently valued at $87,052.87, reflecting a modest 0.33% gain over the past 24 hours and a 2.78% increase over the last seven days, according to data from Coin Market Cap. ( BTC price / Trading View) Bitcoin traded within a 24-hour range of $85,861 to $88,292, suggesting continued volatility as investors assess macroeconomic factors and upcoming regulatory developments. The asset’s market capitalization now stands at $1.72 trillion, up 0.32% since yesterday. Trading volume has seen a slight dip, registering at $27.06 billion, down 5.49% over the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, bitcoin’s market dominance, as tracked by Trading View, declined slightly by 0.11% to 61.71%, indicating that some capital is flowing into alternative cryptocurrencies. ( BTC dominance / Trading View) In the derivatives market, total bitcoin futures open interest has slipped 1.08% to $54.72 billion, per Coinglass data. Liquidations over the past 24 hours totaled $51.86 million, with long positions accounting for $32.06 million, while short liquidations stood at $19.80 million. This suggests that bullish traders faced more pressure as bitcoin briefly dipped before stabilizing. Investors are closely watching developments at the SEC where Paul Atkins is set to be confirmed as the new chairman on Thursday. Atkins, known for his pro-business stance, is expected to bring a more favorable regulatory environment for bitcoin and the broader digital asset industry. “A top priority of my chairmanship will be to work with my fellow commissioners and Congress to provide a firm regulatory foundation for digital assets through a rational, coherent, and principled approach,” Atkins said. His leadership could result in clearer guidelines for bitcoin ETFs, custody rules, and institutional bitcoin adoption. Adding to the bullish sentiment, Circle’s USDC has reached a record $60 billion market capitalization. The growth of USDC highlights increasing stablecoin adoption, suggesting heightened institutional and retail interest in digital assets, which could provide further tailwinds for bitcoin’s price action. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到support@aicoin.com，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。
