Highlights

  • Hyperliquid whales are minting massive profits as HYPE token rally continues.
  • The HYPE futures open interest surged 16.6% to over $2.07 billion, with 24-hour liquidations exceeding $11 million.
  • On Hyperliquid, 170 traders have amassed profits exceeding $10 million each, while 1,589 traders surpassed $1 million in earnings.

Decentralized exchange Hyperliquid continues to extend its market whale, with a whale recently minting a massive $13 million in profit as the HYPE hits a new all-time high at $44.75, with an 11.27% upside in the last 24 hours. Market analysts expect this rally to continue even further. However, with the existing $14 billion, it will be interesting whether it can knock off Cardano (ADA) from the 10th spot, at $22 billion valuation. Data shows that more than 170 traders on the decentralized exchange minted over $10 million profit.

As per the Coinglass data, the HYPE futures open interest has surged by 16.6% to more than $2.07 billion, while the 24-hour liquidations have surged past $11 million.

HYPE Traders Rack Up $10 Million Profits

Trading activity on Hyperliquid has seen remarkable success, with 170 traders achieving profits exceeding $10 million each. Additionally, over 1,589 traders have recorded earnings surpassing $1 million, triggering further HYPE price appreciation.

Interestingly, many of those earning over $10 million have returns under 200%, suggesting that a significant portion of these traders began with substantial initial capital, leveraging their positions for high-value gains.

James Wynn was once again the most active trader on the decentralized trading platform popular for his billion-dollar Bitcoin bets. However, due to the transparency that the platform provides, Wynn lost nearly $100 million in profit to hedge bets competing against him.

However, more recently, Wynn slammed the DEX, criticising its poor referral mechanism. James Wynn shared that he earned $34,000 through Hyperliquid’s referral program but expressed dissatisfaction with the payout. He argued that the amount was disproportionately low compared to the significant number of signups and trading volume he contributed to the platform.
