[00:01] Exchange and CME, the two biggest exchanges in America, wrote a letter to Washington. Their target, a crypto project most people have never heard of. It's called Hyperliquid. Its token just hit an all-time high. And if you
[00:13] you'll understand why Wall Street is genuinely scared. In this video, I'm going to be breaking down three things. What Hyperliquid actually is in plain English, the four catalysts that just sent Hyperliquid to $57, and whether it
[00:27] is too late to buy. I'll also consider a bear case. So, let's get straight into So, what is Hyperliquid? It's a decentralized exchange, meaning no company, no Binance-like middleman. It built its own layer-one blockchain,
[00:41] Hyper EVM. It does perpetual futures, the same product where Binance makes billions on, while having some sketchy stuff at the same time. The 2024 airdrop gave away 1.4 billion dollars to 94,000
[00:56] users. So, this is pretty much context of why the community is unlike any other in the crypto space. This is one of the most sustainable projects out there. The current state is 14.5 billion market cap, ranked 10, doing real volume and
[01:13] increasing. Some people are already foreshadowing Hyperliquid surpassing Solana. Now, let's get into the catalysts. The ETF. Bitwise launched a Hyperliquid spot ETF. This is the same thing that pumped Bitcoin back in 2024.
[01:26] Institutional money rails just opened. SpaceX perps. Trade.xyz, which is obviously built on Hyperliquid, launched pre-IPO perpetual markets for launched pre-IPO perpetual markets for SpaceX on Hyperliquid at a $1.78
[01:40] trillion reference valuation. Now, this matters because you can now trade pre-IPO companies on chain. That's a multi-trillion dollar market that Robinhood or Coinbase don't have. Now, let's get into the third catalyst, which
[01:55] is Coinbase and USDC. A revenue share deal that could redirect $160 from Coinbase's revenue into Hyperliquid's ecosystem. Hyperliquid is
[02:07] now eating Coinbase's lunch, using Coinbase's own stablecoin partner to do so. The Wall Street pushback is real. The CME and the NYSE are pushing hard to regulate Hyperliquid over manipulation and sanctions concerns. When the
[02:22] incumbents start writing letters to regulators, you know the disruption is real. Now, these new developments are pushing Hyperliquid to a new level. I money level. I'm talking about trillions with T. I'm talking about a wide new
[02:36] spectrum of possibilities. Hyperliquid's open interest in RWA projects and narratives is only growing, and Hyperliquid is becoming what they claim to be, the powerhouse of all finance. You are now able to trade pre-IPO
[02:49] companies on-chain, RWA, even prediction markets with HIP-4. It's all coming together, and this is why Hyperliquid's price is going parabolic. So, the current price at the moment of this video is $57, 14.5 billion market cap,
[03:02] ranked 10. If it gets to just 10% of Binance's per volume, a lot of analysts Binance's per volume, a lot of analysts are modeling 80 to $120. Now, that is just with 10% of Binance's current per volume. Just 10%. Talking
[03:17] about Hyperliquid, 10th biggest coin with all the new developments on what's going on. Now, my view on Hyperliquid is obviously biased. I've been here as early as I was able to be. I have my bag as early as I was able to grab one, and
[03:30] I truly believe that this is the next evolution of crypto. I believe this is steps and the evolution and the direction of RWA, of on-chain pre-IPO trading, prediction markets on-chain, so much liquidity, so much options inside
[03:45] of crypto, no KYC, no centralized authority. And people are underestimating how well Hyperliquid ETFs are actually performing. Looking only at absolute net flows, numbers already look pretty strong, but absolute
[03:58] more interesting question here is the inflows relative to the underlying assets market cap? When you adjust for market cap, HYPE's early ETF demand
[04:10] looks much stronger than what people realize. If this pace continues and Grayscale's come to market quickly, HYPE could end up being the strongest crypto ETF adjusting the net flows to market cap we've ever seen. I'm going to show
[04:26] you guys an image so you can understand here. ETF launch strength, 7-day net flows, and average market cap. Here you can see the strength that HYPE is showing. 0.826% compared to Solana, Bitcoin, and
[04:38] compared to Solana, Bitcoin, and Ethereum. It's absolutely nuts. And here which is the cumulative net inflows same-day market cap. You can see HYPE is absolutely crushing it. It's absolutely crazy. So guys, I hope you enjoyed this
