The Hyperliquid chain’s total Open Interest reached $11.07 billion on July 13, the highest in 2026. HIP-3 markets, or Hyperliquid Improvement Proposal 3, contributed to $3.69 billion, another record, reported Wu Blockchain in a post on X.
Just a couple of days ago, though, it was reported that the new Ethereum Layer-2, Robinhood Chain, had surpassed Hyperliquid and BNB in daily speculative interest.
Viral memecoin launches like CashCat helped fuel the Robinhood volume, and it is unclear if this enormous volume can be sustained during periods of less memecoin speculation.
Hyperliquid is a market-proven product. Will this be enough for its price trends to improve in July?
The Hyperliquid uptrend remains intact Source: HYPE/USDT on TradingView A bullish swing structure was in place for HYPE. An upward continuation was established when the previous swing high at $59.412 [green] was breached to the upside in May. Since then, the altcoin has set a new high at $76.955.
Using the move from $20.48 to $76.95, a set of Fibonacci retracement levels [orange] was plotted. It showed that the coveted golden pocket for swing traders and investors sat in the $32.56-$42.05 area.
The golden pocket outlines a high-probability trend resumption zone between the 61.8%-78.6% retracement levels. Therefore, in the long run, a correction to this region should offer an investing opportunity.
As things stand, HYPE is a long way from such a massive retracement. The CMF was above +0.05, and the OBV was climbing, to show steady buying pressure. Meanwhile, the MACD signaled waning bullish momentum.
Traders’ call to action- Respect the range Source: HYPE/USDT on TradingView A range formation between $53.3 and $74.6 has been in place since early June. At the time of writing, the Hyperliquid token was trading below the mid-range support at $64.
This signaled a potential drop toward the lower end of the range. The CMF’s -0.14 reading showcased heavy capital outflows. The MACD has formed a bearish crossover below the zero line to signal that downward momentum was gaining strength.
Swing traders can wait for a drop toward $53-$54 before looking to buy. It is also possible that the $60 round-number level might yield a price bounce.
As things stand, traders can wait for this range to break down before they can begin anticipating a correction toward $32.
Final Summary Hyperliquid reached its highest Open Interest of 2026 on Monday. Robinhood Chain’s surge in daily speculative interest recently might not be enough to topple the leading DEX. The higher timeframe HYPE price trends were bullish. For now, the $53.3 and $74.6 levels were the ones swing traders should watch.
Hyperliquid's (@HyperliquidX) HIP-3 markets have gone from a footnote to a dominant force on the platform in a matter of months. HIP-3's share of total Hyperliquid perpetual volume has climbed from roughly 2% at the start of the year to around 50% now, coinciding with growing retail appetite for trading equities onchain.
What Is HIP-3 and Who Is Driving Volume? HIP-3 is a Hyperliquid network upgrade launched in October 2025 that allows permissionless deployment of perpetual futures markets by staking 500,000 $HYPE tokens. The framework has opened the door to 24/7 trading of assets that have historically been locked behind exchange hours and brokerage accounts.
The category is dominated by TradeXYZ, which runs markets like XYZ100 (tracking the Nasdaq-100) and single-stock contracts on names like Nvidia and Tesla, all settled in stablecoin rather than the underlying shares. Open interest surpassed $1.43 billion within months of launch, with tokenized stocks and commodities representing 23 out of the top 30 trading pairs on Hyperliquid.
Open interest across HIP-3 markets grew from roughly $790 million in January 2026 to a peak of $3.2 billion by June, according to Grayscale. Hyperliquid's HIP-3 onchain perpetual futures market has also surpassed $309 billion in cumulative trading volume, highlighting growing adoption for permissionless, around-the-clock derivatives markets.
A Broader Shift in How Retail Traders Access Markets The HIP-3 market's ability to offer round-the-clock exposure to these assets without traditional market hours has been a key factor in attracting volume. For retail traders who want to react to earnings reports or macro events outside of exchange hours, the appeal is straightforward.
The surge in HIP-3 activity sits inside a much larger growth story for Hyperliquid overall. Hyperliquid holds 6.2% of the global market for perpetuals by volume, up from just 4% at the start of 2026, and 70% of the global market for decentralized perpetuals. The platform processed $633 billion in trading volume during Q1 2026 alone.
Seven of Hyperliquid's top ten markets by volume are now tokenized equities or commodity futures rather than traditional cryptocurrency pairs, a sign that the platform's user base is increasingly looking beyond crypto for trading opportunities.

Key Takeaways HYPE has declined more than 2% on Monday, with the token now challenging critical support near the $68.50 trendline Futures Open Interest contracted by over 2% across 24 hours to reach $2.72 billion, accompanied by $2.48 million in liquidated long positions Institutional investors poured $10.36 million into HYPE ETFs during the previous week, marking a ninth uninterrupted week of capital inflows Markets launched under HIP-3 have expanded their share of Hyperliquid perpetual trading volume from 2% to approximately 50% throughout 2026 Critical support rests at the 50-day EMA level of $63.13; a breakdown beneath this threshold may drive prices toward $53.71 Hyperliquid (HYPE) is currently exchanging hands near $65 on Monday, reflecting a decline exceeding 2% as widespread risk aversion across markets weighs on cryptocurrency valuations. This downturn continues the negative price movement observed during the previous week.
Hyperliquid (HYPE) Price Escalating geopolitical tensions between the United States and Iran centered around oil tanker navigation rights in the Strait of Hormuz have triggered a flight from risk-oriented assets, with cryptocurrencies caught in the selloff. Alternative tokens such as HYPE have experienced heightened selling pressure as a result.
Derivatives market intelligence from CoinGlass indicates that Open Interest decreased by more than 2% during the last 24-hour period, settling at $2.72 billion. Aggregate liquidation events reached $2.93 million, with positions betting on price increases accounting for $2.48 million of this figure.
The funding rate metric has experienced a pronounced decline to 0.0275%, signaling an increase in traders establishing short positions. This represents a notable departure from the optimistic market positioning observed in prior weeks.
Institutional Capital Continues Flowing In Notwithstanding near-term price weakness, HYPE exchange-traded funds attracted $10.36 million in net inflows throughout the past week. This achievement represents the ninth consecutive week that institutional investment vehicles focused on HYPE have recorded positive capital flows.
Source: SoSoValue Cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe shared an optimistic assessment on July 12, stating that the HYPE chart “is ready to break out upwards” with a price objective of $100. His thesis rests on consistent revenue expansion, a pattern of ascending peaks and troughs, and the asset maintaining position above both its 21-day and 50-day moving average indicators.
The $HYPE chart is super strong.
It's ready to break out upwards, and the next target is going to be $100.
The reasons for the fact that this is the case:
– Constant revenue growth and value accrual to the token.
– Holding above the 21-Day and 50-Day MA's.
– Constant higher… pic.twitter.com/S6AZSY1Ecr
— Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL) July 12, 2026
From a technical perspective, HYPE is currently challenging a breakout from an important ascending trendline situated around $68.50. The 50-day exponential moving average positioned at $63.13 now represents the nearest support zone requiring monitoring.
The Relative Strength Index has deteriorated below the neutral 50 mark to 48, while the MACD indicator is charting below its signal line. These technical readings collectively suggest diminishing bullish momentum.
A daily candle closure beneath the $63.13 threshold could establish conditions for a move toward the 50% Fibonacci retracement level located at $53.71. Conversely, a price recovery scenario would establish the previous swing high at $75.58 as the initial resistance target.
The protocol’s contribution to aggregate Hyperliquid perpetual futures volume has surged from roughly 2% when 2026 commenced to approaching 50% presently. This expansion correlates with increasing retail trader appetite for onchain equity derivatives products.
TradeXYZ has emerged as the dominant participant within this category, operating markets including XYZ100 (which tracks the Nasdaq-100 index) alongside individual equity perpetuals on companies like Nvidia and Tesla, all settled using stablecoins.
The continuous 24/7 market availability represents a fundamental attraction point—participants can respond to breaking developments at any moment without restriction to traditional market hours.
HYPE exchange-traded funds documented their ninth consecutive week of institutional capital inflows totaling $10.36 million as of the most recent reporting period.

Goldman Sachs: Hong Kong's market has entered the AI era, and equity financing volume is expected to reach a new high this year.
Wang Yajun, Head of Equity Capital Markets for Goldman Sachs Asia (ex-Japan), noted that Hong Kong’s market has entered the AI era, yet major stock indices have not fully reflected the impact of AI-related enterprises. This explains the contrast between this year’s red-hot IPO fundraising and the relatively lackluster performance of secondary market indices. Wang forecasts that Hong Kong’s total equity financing and IPO fundraising scale will both reach new highs in 2026. Since the start of this year, AI has become the most active investment theme in Hong Kong’s stock market: the most actively traded, best-performing, and largest fundraising stocks are all AI-related, though index constituent adjustments lag behind. Regarding AI industry valuations, Wang believes that sustained growth in AI demand will drive continued expansion of capital expenditures on infrastructure such as computing power, chips, and storage, and the industry still has room for growth in capital spending. As China’s AI industrial chain continues to improve, more AI enterprises are expected to list in Hong Kong or on the STAR Market in the second half of the year.

The funding rate of SK Hynix-related contracts on Hyperliquid surged more than 130% within one hour.
Hyperliquid platform’s SK Hynix-linked contracts SKHX and SKHY have seen extremely robust trading activity, with a combined 24-hour trading volume of $1.836 billion, surpassing Bitcoin (BTC) to become the platform’s most active asset by trading volume. SKHX alone notched a 24-hour volume of $1.63 billion and open interest (OI) of $635 million, while SKHY posted a 24-hour volume of $206 million and OI of $101 million. SKHY still trades at a roughly 26% premium to SKHX. Notably, SKHX’s funding rate surged sharply in just one hour: it jumped from +0.0064% to +0.0151%, a rise of over 130%. Concurrently, the contract’s trading volume dipped slightly from $1.663 billion to $1.604 billion, and its open interest fell from $638.6 million to $627.1 million. A sharp spike in funding rates typically signals a rapid rise in bullish sentiment, as long positions flood the market—traders holding long positions face higher costs to maintain their bets, reflecting intensifying long-short battles in SKHX contracts and growing speculative enthusiasm for SK Hynix’s US-listed assets.

The United States launched a five-hour continuous air raid on Iran, in retaliation for Iran's bombing of a U.S. military base in Jordan.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced that it had launched ballistic missiles at a U.S. military air base in Jordan and called on Jordanian citizens to resist the U.S. military presence there. Jordanian authorities said its air defense systems successfully intercepted four Iranian missiles that entered its airspace, and the incident caused no casualties or property damage. In response, U.S. Central Command, with authorization from President Donald Trump, carried out approximately five hours of continuous airstrikes on targets inside Iran. This marked the third consecutive night of large-scale U.S. military strikes against Iran. According to Iranian media reports, multiple targets including the port of Bandar Abbas were struck, with some naval maintenance facilities damaged. Meanwhile, tensions in the Strait of Hormuz remain high. Trump recently proposed that the U.S. would take responsibility for securing the Strait of Hormuz and planned to impose a 20% fee on goods transiting the waterway, sparking widespread international controversy. Affected by the escalating situation in the Middle East, international oil prices rose nearly 3% at one point, as markets worry that shipping risks in the strait will further exacerbate global energy supply tensions.

Analysis: AI data centers have pushed U.S. electricity prices up by $23 billion, and the costs are likely to continue being borne by residents.
According to a study cited by Fortune, the rapid expansion of AI data centers in the United States has driven a sharp rise in public power costs. PJM Market Monitor, the entity overseeing power grids across 14 U.S. Mid-Atlantic and Midwest states, projects that the additional power demand from data centers will lead to power users bearing roughly $230 billion in extra costs, an impact that will persist through at least the end of 2028. The report notes that while multiple major tech companies have committed to covering the costs of new power infrastructure, since public utility expenses such as transmission lines, substations and grid upgrades are typically shared uniformly by regulators, some costs may still be passed on to residential and general commercial users. The study also points out that some data centers can reduce their power usage during grid peak periods by flexibly adjusting their load, thereby cutting their share of grid costs allocated based on peak load. However, they still consume large volumes of electricity, meaning their actual cost burden may be lower than the strain they exert on the grid. Analysts believe that as AI infrastructure construction continues to accelerate, issues such as power cost allocation mechanisms, data center power pricing and rising residential electricity rates are emerging as key challenges facing U.S. energy regulators.

Hyperliquid, a decentralized derivatives exchange, saw its total open interest climb to an all-time high of $11.07 billion on July 13, 2026, according to data from DeFiLlama, cited by Wu Blockchain. The platform’s open interest later settled slightly lower at $10.88 billion, but remained near record levels, indicating robust participation in derivatives trading.
Elevated open interest signals strong activityDeFiLlama, which tracks decentralized finance market metrics, reported that Hyperliquid’s open interest reached its peak for the year as traders kept substantial positions open. Open interest reflects the total value of active derivatives contracts that have yet to be settled or closed out.
Analysts noted that open interest levels above $11 billion indicate strong engagement from market participants, despite minor pullbacks after the spike. Open interest, on its own, does not distinguish between the betting direction of traders; it merely highlights the aggregate capital locked into ongoing contracts.
Open interest gauges not only the activity within derivatives markets but also signals broader leveraged exposure across decentralized finance, irrespective of price direction or momentum.
Market observers continue to compare open interest data with factors like trading volume and price movements to assess risk and leverage in the ecosystem.
HIP-3 and RWA markets drive growthWu Blockchain added that HIP-3 markets contributed approximately $3.69 billion to Hyperliquid’s total open interest, setting a new record for that segment on the decentralized exchange. HIP-3 represents a category of perpetual futures tracking multiple assets, expanding the range of products offered on Hyperliquid.
In addition, MSB Intel reported that real-world asset (RWA) open interest on Hyperliquid surged to about $3.6 billion. This milestone put a spotlight on increased demand for tokenized traditional assets in decentralized trading platforms.
Mini dictionary: RWA (Real-World Assets): Tokenized representations of traditional assets such as commodities, securities, or credit products, traded on blockchain-based platforms.
Institutional interest in tokenized asset derivatives is pushing RWA open interest to new highs, with $3.6 billion reached on Hyperliquid and a total platform open interest of $11 billion for 2026.
The expansion in RWA-based derivatives highlights growing appetite for exposure to non-crypto instruments within decentralized finance. However, analysts emphasize the continued need for effective liquidity monitoring and risk controls as volumes expand.
MarketOpen InterestRecord DateTotal (Hyperliquid)$11.07 billionJuly 13, 2026HIP-3$3.69 billionJuly 13, 2026RWA$3.6 billionJuly 13, 2026Technical levels and future outlookCharts show that Hyperliquid open interest has rebounded sharply from early 2026 lows near $5 billion, forming higher highs and higher lows throughout the year. Analysts point to resistance zones between $11 billion and $12 billion, with a breakout above this level potentially opening the door to targets near $13 billion to $15 billion. The historical peak region between $15 billion and $16 billion also serves as a reference for future movements.
On the downside, initial support lies between $9 billion and $9.5 billion, while a further decline could find stability near $6 billion to $7 billion. These key technical areas may influence trader behavior and leverage deployment across Hyperliquid’s markets.
Hyperliquid’s recent surge in open interest and record-setting performance in both HIP-3 and RWA markets demonstrate the evolving structure and growing sophistication of decentralized derivatives trading in 2026.

Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz has stated that cryptocurrency volumes have increased by 20% to 30% from previous lows, suggesting a renewed enthusiasm in the market. He highlighted that smaller positive developments are contributing to this upswing. Novogratz’s remarks align with recent data indicating a 19% rise in centralized exchange volumes, a notable growth over four consecutive months. Additionally, Robinhood Chain, an Ethereum Layer 2 network, reported significant usage, surpassing Hyperliquid’s activity on its launch day. This surge in activity on new platforms like Robinhood Chain reflects a shift in liquidity, potentially affecting the dynamics within the crypto market.

Key Takeaways Novogratz’s statement suggests a positive shift in crypto market sentiment, with volumes increasing significantly from recent lows. Robinhood Chain’s debut highlights a migration of liquidity toward emerging networks, surpassing established platforms like Hyperliquid. Market participants appear encouraged by these developments, indicating a shift from speculative interest to practical use cases. What to Watch Observers will be keen to see if the increase in volumes sustains and influences the broader market, particularly in relation to Hyperliquid’s performance. Any further announcements from major platforms like Robinhood or strategic partnerships involving Hyperliquid could provide additional insights. Markets will also watch for shifts in sentiment and volume that could impact the pricing of Hyperliquid, especially as the year progresses toward the end of 2026.

Financials Crypto Sector protocols, such as Hyperliquid’s $HYPE, are reportedly outperforming Consumer & Culture Sector tokens. This development is attributed to strong fundamentals, including real cash flows, stablecoins, tokenization, and increased blockchain adoption. Hyperliquid, a decentralized perpetuals exchange, has emerged as a leader in on-chain derivatives, benefiting from fees and a robust token buyback program. The protocol’s success is further bolstered by institutional interest and strategic partnerships, including Circle’s investment and integration with USDC on its HyperEVM platform.

Key Takeaways Market activity suggests that $HYPE’s performance is consistent with a broader trend favoring financial sector tokens with strong cash flow fundamentals. Current pricing indicates a moderate increase in the probability of Hyperliquid reaching $100 by the end of 2026, suggesting positive investor sentiment. The financial sector’s focus on real yield and tokenization appears to be driving market rewards over consumer-focused narratives. What to Watch Watch for further institutional involvement, such as new partnerships or investments, which could support a YES outcome for Hyperliquid reaching $100. Potential risks include regulatory challenges or security breaches that could impact sentiment negatively. Developments in blockchain technology adoption and stablecoin integration will also be key indicators for the protocol’s future performance.

Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 markets have experienced a significant increase in perpetual futures market volume, now accounting for nearly 50% of the protocol’s total perp volume. This marks a substantial rise from roughly 2% at the beginning of 2026. The surge is primarily driven by the onchain activity in real-world assets, including tokenized U.S. equities and commodities. With 23 of the top 30 Hyperliquid pairs by open interest, the growth reflects a shift towards 24/7 access to traditional assets, especially during periods of geopolitical volatility when legacy markets are closed. Market participants are increasingly favoring HIP-3’s framework for its ability to offer continuous exposure to these assets.
Advertisement
Key Takeaways The increase in HIP-3’s market share appears consistent with growing interest in onchain access to tokenized real-world assets. Hyperliquid’s recent performance suggests market participants are rotating from altcoins to tokenized stocks and commodities. The rise in onchain stock activity may indicate a longer-term trend toward integrating traditional financial assets into blockchain ecosystems. What to Watch The market will be closely monitoring if Hyperliquid can sustain or further increase its market share in perpetual futures. Key indicators include announcements of partnerships or technological advancements that could enhance Hyperliquid’s offerings. Additionally, developments in geopolitical events or regulatory changes impacting real-world asset tokenization could significantly influence market sentiment and pricing, potentially affecting Hyperliquid’s trajectory towards its $100 price target by the end of 2026.

Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 markets have surged to nearly 50% of the protocol’s perpetual futures volume, reflecting a significant shift towards on-chain activity in tokenized traditional assets such as U.S. stocks, commodities, and indices. As of July 12, 2026, the HIP-3 markets have reached an open interest of $3.68 billion, with cumulative volume surpassing $309 billion since the upgrade’s launch in October 2025. This growth underscores the increasing appeal of non-crypto assets in the crypto derivatives markets, as they now dominate seven of Hyperliquid’s top ten volume markets. The trend challenges centralized exchanges and traditional finance infrastructure by attracting more participants towards decentralized avenues.

Key Takeaways The surge in Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 market volume suggests a growing interest in on-chain access to tokenized traditional assets. Non-crypto assets are now predominant in Hyperliquid’s top volume markets, indicating a shift in the focus of crypto derivatives. Market pricing implies that the increased activity could support scenarios where Hyperliquid’s value continues to rise, consistent with increased YES outcomes. What to Watch Future developments could further influence Hyperliquid’s market trajectory. Announcements of major partnerships or technological advancements by Hyperliquid could be supportive of YES scenarios, potentially driving the asset closer to the $100 mark by the end of 2026. Conversely, any reports of security issues or regulatory challenges could suggest scenarios leading to a decline in market confidence. Market participants will be closely monitoring these factors and their potential impacts on Hyperliquid’s pricing trends.

At press time, XRP was trading at $1.06, down 3.53% in the last 24 hours and 7.54% in the past week. This made it the second-biggest loser among the top ten cryptocurrencies during that period, trailing only Hyperliquid (HYPE), which is down 6.55% in the past day.
Key factors that influenced the XRP price todaySeveral factors are to blame for this decline, the biggest being a broader market downturn as investors anticipate inflation-induced interest rate hikes. A week ago, Iran re-ignited its conflict with the US after attacking three commercial vessels off the coast of Oman. This led to the collapse of the June 17 peace memorandum, with both nations resuming strikes against each other.
As a result, oil prices are now up over 8-9% in the past 24 hours – something that typically renews macro inflation fears.

Notably, the US Federal Reserve attributed part of the inflation to the artificial intelligence (AI) boom at its June Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. Just today, Fed Governor Christopher Waller warned that if tomorrow’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading is high, the Fed could be forced to hike interest rates.
FED AT A CROSSROADS: RATE HIKE BACK ON THE TABLE
Fed Governor Christopher Waller warned that another hot core inflation reading could force policymakers to consider raising interest rates soon.

— *Walter Bloomberg (@DeItaone) July 13, 2026 Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh remains slightly positive, arguing that AI could eventually boost economic efficiency, thereby creating a deflationary force in the long term.
Even more, today XRP price broke below the critical $1.07 Fibonacci support, which it had been holding for 158 consecutive days. This further fueled selling pressure, with long liquidations over the past 24 hours totaling $6.67 million, according to CoinGlass.
Technical levels to watch forWith the $1.07 price now acting as the new overhead resistance, the next support levels are the $1.00 psychological floor and the 18.75% Fibonacci level at $0.9980. The final major support line after that is the 12.50% macro retracement level at $0.7925. One analyst, however, has posted evidence of a potential 60,000% gain from a historical perspective.
Ironically, today is the 3rd anniversary of the “XRP Victory Day.” But while the community celebrates the landmark SEC ruling, selling pressures continue to overwhelm local bullish sentiment.

DTCC plans to demonstrate blockchain-based real-time stock trade settlement processes this week.
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) plans to demonstrate blockchain-powered real-time stock trading processes this Wednesday. Market participants believe this technology can streamline the clearing, settlement, and record-keeping workflows underlying Wall Street stock trades, boosting capital market operational efficiency. The test is viewed as a key step for traditional financial systems in exploring on-chain securities infrastructure. However, the project remains limited in scale during its initial phase. After years of research and development, DTCC—one of the largest U.S. securities clearing institutions—this demonstration is more of a verification exercise rather than a full-scale push to migrate the entire stock market to blockchain. Analysts note that while tokenized securities and on-chain settlement are seen as having the potential to reduce costs and enhance trading efficiency, migrating traditional financial infrastructure to blockchain still faces challenges including regulation, compliance, system compatibility, and coordination among market participants. Earlier, Joseph Spiro, DTCC’s Director of Digital Asset Products, said in a May webinar that DTCC plans to launch its tokenized services this year, will demonstrate relevant use cases in a production environment in July, and officially roll out the service in October.

Coinbase Ventures emerged as the most active crypto venture capital firm in the first half of 2026, with DeFi, AI, and payment sectors being its most favored investment areas.
CryptoRank data shows Coinbase Ventures, with 30 investments completed in H1 2026, is the most active crypto venture capital firm. Animoca Brands, a16z, and Tether followed with 19, 18, and 15 investments respectively. Over the past 12 months, Coinbase Ventures has closed a total of 75 investments, ranking first in the industry, followed by Animoca Brands, YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs), GSR, and a16z. Despite the crypto market remaining in a slump, industry financing volumes continue to shrink. Total funding for crypto firms fell to $1.4 billion in June, a 63% drop from $3.8 billion in April; the number of financing rounds also decreased from 89 in May to 61. Meanwhile, the number of independent investment firms participating in deals dropped from 452 in October 2025 to 242 in June this year. By sector, DeFi, payments, and AI remain the most capital-favored segments over the past year, with 216, 131, and 128 financing rounds respectively. Coinbase Ventures has focused its investments on payment protocols, DeFi, infrastructure, and RWA tokenization projects.

U.S. Senate enters critical window for Clarity Act; next four weeks could decide the bill’s fate this year.
After the U.S. Congress reconvened, the Clarity Act (Crypto Market Structure Act) has entered a critical legislative window. Industry insiders say the next four weeks will determine whether the bill can complete Senate review before Congress adjourns in August and be formally enacted this year. According to reports, the Senate is expected to release this week the latest version of the bill, which integrates texts from the Senate Banking Committee and Agriculture Committee. Currently, the bill faces two core sticking points: one is the final language of the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act concerning regulatory liability for non-custodial software developers; the other is ethical provisions on conflicts of interest among government officials, particularly those related to Trump’s crypto business. Sources familiar with the matter noted that the White House and Congress have yet to reach an agreement on the ethical provisions, a key factor in the bill’s effort to hit the 60-vote threshold. Alex Thorn, head of research at Galaxy Digital, said the next four weeks could be the Clarity Act’s last chance to pass in the current congressional session; if the bill fails to become law, the U.S. may further lag behind overseas markets in the race for digital asset innovation.

US pre-market news roundup: Intel plans to invest €5 billion to expand its Irish factory; storage and semiconductor equipment sectors fall across the board in pre-market trading.
Key pre-market news for U.S. stocks is as follows: 1. JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and Goldman Sachs will kick off Q2 earnings reports on Tuesday, while Morgan Stanley will release its results on Wednesday. Markets expect U.S. large banks’ investment banking and trading revenues to surge, driven by SpaceX’s IPO, rising M&A activity, and market volatility sparked by the Iran situation; 2. Trump claimed Iran always breaks agreements, so the U.S. will strike hard at Iran, take control of the strait, and likely dominate it in the future; 3. SK Hynix’s U.S. ADR trades at a 23.4% premium to its South Korean shares; 4. Semiconductor equipment and storage sectors fell across the board pre-market, with KLAC down 3.7%, SanDisk and Western Digital both dropping over 5%; 5. Spot gold and silver fell broadly, with gold down 1.32% and silver down 2.23%; 6. Crude oil markets fell broadly, with U.S. crude up 3.35% and Brent crude up 3.53%; 7.

South Korean stock market faces a margin trading crisis, with forced liquidations totaling 344.2 billion won in July.
According to data from the Korea Financial Investment Association, the recent sharp decline in South Korea's stock market has triggered accelerated deleveraging of margin trading positions. The total forced liquidation volume in July has reached 344.2 billion won, with the single-day forced liquidation amount on July 9 hitting 142.2 billion won. As forced liquidation data lags by two trading days, the clearing pressure from the nearly 9% plunge in the KOSPI on July 13 has not yet been fully reflected, and the market expects subsequent liquidation volumes to rise further. On July 13, South Korea's KOSPI index closed down 8.95%, triggering the Sidecar (seller order suspension mechanism) and Level 1 Circuit Breaker during intraday trading. The semiconductor sector plummeted, with SK Hynix falling 15.37%—its largest single-day drop in history—and Samsung Electronics down 10.7%. Meanwhile, South Korean retail investors' margin sizes, margin loan balances, and investor deposits have all continued to decline, with the market trapped in a deleveraging cycle of "stock price drop—forced liquidation—further decline".

Hyperliquid (HYPE) is down over 2% on Monday, extending last week's decline despite steady weekly institutional inflows of around $10 million. HYPE futures signal reduced retail support as the Open Interest and funding rates take a sharp drop. Technically, a clear breakout of the ascending trendline could threaten the supporting 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) around $63.13.
Broader market weakness weighs down on HYPERenewed strikes between the US and Iran over the passage of oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz have elevated broader market risk-off sentiment. Demand in the crypto market has eased, with altcoins such as Hyperliquid trading in the red.
CoinGlass data shows the HYPE futures Open Interest is down over 2% in the last 24 hours to $2.72 billion, reflecting a contraction in active leveraged positions. In addition, the total liquidation of $2.93 million, led by $2.48 million in long liquidations, aligns with a reduced risk appetite, mainly from long-position buyers.
At the same time, the funding rate has plunged to 0.0275%, reflecting a sharp shift among traders toward buying short positions at a premium.
However, HYPE-focused Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) recorded $10.36 million in inflows last week, indicating steady demand from institutional investors. Taken together, the derivatives market signals short-term downside risk in HYPE while the ninth consecutive week of institutional inflows supports long-term upside.

The path of least resistance guides HYPE toward the 50-day EMA at $63.13, which acts as the immediate support zone. A decisive daily close below $63.13 could extend the decline toward the 50% retracement level at $53.71, measured from the $38.17 to $75.58.
In addition, the momentum is softening on the daily chart, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 48 slipping below the midline. At the same time, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) descends below the signal line as the negative histogram expands. Together, the indicators suggest that momentum is shifting neutral to bearish.

Hyperliquid, a decentralized perpetual futures exchange, has reached a new all-time high in real-world asset (RWA) open interest, hitting $3.6 billion. This development is part of a broader surge in the platform’s total open interest, which has peaked at $11 billion for 2026. The increase in RWA open interest highlights Hyperliquid’s growing dominance in the market for tokenized assets like oil futures and equities. As the on-chain RWA market expands, Hyperliquid’s competitive position as a leading venue for RWA-perp activity has strengthened significantly.

Activity on Hyperliquid, a decentralized perpetual futures platform, has surged to a new peak with over $11 billion in open positions, marking the highest level for the year. This development reflects growing interest in the platform, which operates on its proprietary Layer 1 blockchain. The increase includes significant engagement in non-crypto markets, such as gold and equities, through its HIP-3 markets. Hyperliquid already accounts for about 70% of all on-chain perpetual futures volume, highlighting its dominant role in the sector. This milestone comes as the platform continues to attract interest amid a backdrop of robust global market activity.

DTCC plans to demonstrate blockchain-based real-time stock trade settlement processes this week.
The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) plans to demonstrate blockchain-powered real-time stock trading processes this Wednesday. Market participants believe this technology can streamline the clearing, settlement, and record-keeping workflows underlying Wall Street stock trades, boosting capital market operational efficiency. The test is viewed as a key step for traditional financial systems in exploring on-chain securities infrastructure. However, the project remains limited in scale during its initial phase. After years of research and development, DTCC—one of the largest U.S. securities clearing institutions—this demonstration is more of a verification exercise rather than a full-scale push to migrate the entire stock market to blockchain. Analysts note that while tokenized securities and on-chain settlement are seen as having the potential to reduce costs and enhance trading efficiency, migrating traditional financial infrastructure to blockchain still faces challenges including regulation, compliance, system compatibility, and coordination among market participants. Earlier, Joseph Spiro, DTCC’s Director of Digital Asset Products, said in a May webinar that DTCC plans to launch its tokenized services this year, will demonstrate relevant use cases in a production environment in July, and officially roll out the service in October.

U.S. Senate enters critical window for Clarity Act; next four weeks could decide the bill’s fate this year.
After the U.S. Congress reconvened, the Clarity Act (Crypto Market Structure Act) has entered a critical legislative window. Industry insiders say the next four weeks will determine whether the bill can complete Senate review before Congress adjourns in August and be formally enacted this year. According to reports, the Senate is expected to release this week the latest version of the bill, which integrates texts from the Senate Banking Committee and Agriculture Committee. Currently, the bill faces two core sticking points: one is the final language of the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act concerning regulatory liability for non-custodial software developers; the other is ethical provisions on conflicts of interest among government officials, particularly those related to Trump’s crypto business. Sources familiar with the matter noted that the White House and Congress have yet to reach an agreement on the ethical provisions, a key factor in the bill’s effort to hit the 60-vote threshold. Alex Thorn, head of research at Galaxy Digital, said the next four weeks could be the Clarity Act’s last chance to pass in the current congressional session; if the bill fails to become law, the U.S. may further lag behind overseas markets in the race for digital asset innovation.

JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Wells Fargo, and Goldman Sachs will kick off Q2 earnings reports on Tuesday, while Morgan Stanley will release its results on Wednesday.

SK Hynix’s U.S. ADR trades at a 23.4% premium to its South Korean shares; 4. Semiconductor equipment and storage sectors fell across the board pre-market, with KLAC down 3.7%, SanDisk and Western Digital both dropping over 5%; 5.

South Korean stock market faces a margin trading crisis, with forced liquidations totaling 344.2 billion won in July.
According to data from the Korea Financial Investment Association, the recent sharp decline in South Korea's stock market has triggered accelerated deleveraging of margin trading positions. The total forced liquidation volume in July has reached 344.2 billion won, with the single-day forced liquidation amount on July 9 hitting 142.2 billion won. As forced liquidation data lags by two trading days, the clearing pressure from the nearly 9% plunge in the KOSPI on July 13 has not yet been fully reflected, and the market expects subsequent liquidation volumes to rise further. On July 13, South Korea's KOSPI index closed down 8.95%, triggering the Sidecar (seller order suspension mechanism) and Level 1 Circuit Breaker during intraday trading. The semiconductor sector plummeted, with SK Hynix falling 15.37%—its largest single-day drop in history—and Samsung Electronics down 10.7%. Meanwhile, South Korean retail investors' margin sizes, margin loan balances, and investor deposits have all continued to decline, with the market trapped in a deleveraging cycle of "stock price drop—forced liquidation—further decline".

Open interest in real-world asset markets on the Hyperliquid platform has surged to a new high of $3.6 billion, according to The Block. This represents a significant increase from the previous record of $2.6 billion set in May 2026. The overall open interest on Hyperliquid has also reached a 2026 peak of $11 billion. This growth is attributed to increased accessibility and interest in tokenized real-world assets, with Hyperliquid offering 24/7 access to synthetic tokens for various equities, commodities, and forex markets. The platform’s real-world asset (RWA) markets now comprise about 30% of its total activity, reflecting a broader trend of institutional and retail adoption of decentralized derivatives.

Key Takeaways The record $3.6 billion open interest in Hyperliquid’s RWA markets suggests increasing engagement with tokenized real-world assets. Hyperliquid’s total open interest peak at $11 billion indicates robust activity and confidence in decentralized derivatives platforms. Market pricing appears supportive of the view that Hyperliquid’s growth could contribute to potential further increases in its price by the end of 2026. What to Watch Watch for Hyperliquid’s continued expansion and integration into traditional financial markets, which could further influence its price movement. Announcements of major partnerships, especially with Fortune 500 companies, could be pivotal in shaping market sentiment. Additionally, any regulatory developments or technological innovations related to decentralized derivatives could significantly impact the platform’s trajectory and investor confidence.

Trump and Iran deliver tough, tit-for-tat statements, with both sides refusing to back down on the Strait of Hormuz issue.
US President Donald Trump and an advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader have successively made tough remarks on the Strait of Hormuz. Trump stated that the US will become the "guardian" and "guardian angel" of the Strait of Hormuz, claiming that the US has guarded the strait for free in the past and will recover its operational costs and compensate for the risks it has taken to maintain the strait’s security in the future. He also said that the US will control the Strait of Hormuz and "is very likely to dominate the strait" in the future, adding that every time Iran deploys drones, the US will strike back fiercely. In addition, Trump revealed that the US and Iran held 11-hour talks yesterday. The advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader responded that no Iranian believes Iran should give up the Strait of Hormuz. Iran defends the Strait of Hormuz to avoid being forced to pay "ransom" for the passage of its own ships in the future. He emphasized that the strategic, security and economic status of the Strait of Hormuz is irreplaceable, and Iran will never back down on the issue of the Strait of Hormuz.

BBC investigation finds Instagram still hosts ads for child sexual abuse content, Meta’s AI moderation mechanism faces renewed scrutiny
Despite Meta’s ongoing heavy investment in AI infrastructure, a new BBC investigation has found that Instagram is still serving users in India with advertisements containing child sexual abuse material (CSAM), and some of these ads are still deemed by the platform’s moderation system as “not violating community guidelines” even after being reported. The report states that a test account created by the BBC received around 30 CSAM-related ads within a week, without any prior searches for such content, and these ads directed users to Telegram channels to purchase the illegal material. The Indian government has ordered Meta to remove the relevant ads and explain within seven days why its moderation mechanism failed. The report notes that Meta’s 2025 ad revenue reached $201 billion, accounting for approximately 97% of its total revenue, while its AI infrastructure investment in the same period hit $72.2 billion. The company plans to raise its capital expenditure to between $125 billion and $145 billion in 2026. The article points out that Meta’s current controversies stem more from platform governance and commercial incentives rather than a lack of AI technical capabilities.

Institutions: The crypto market continued deleveraging in Q2, with spot trading volume hitting its lowest level since Q3 2023.
According to FalconX’s latest market analysis, the crypto market sustained its deleveraging trend in the second quarter of 2026. Spot trading volume on major platforms fell to $1.6 trillion, down 25% quarter-over-quarter and 42% year-over-year, hitting its lowest level since the third quarter of 2023.

The report shows that by the end of Q2, the total open interest (OI) of futures across the market fell to $53.2 billion, a sharp pullback from the peak of $122.2 billion in October 2025, while trading turnover ratio decreased to 1.6x, reflecting a shift in the market from high-frequency speculation to long-term holding. On the capital flow front, Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a net outflow of $4.9 billion in Q2, expanding the year-to-date cumulative net outflow to $5.4 billion. Total stablecoin supply shrank by $7.4 billion to $313.8 billion, marking the first contraction in recent quarters. FalconX notes that the current market deleveraging process is largely complete, with open interest stabilizing and trading volume showing signs of recovery in June. Looking ahead to the third quarter, the progress of the U.S. CLARITY Act legislation and ETF capital flows will be key catalysts shaping market trends.

SPCX has dropped nearly 5% from its first-day opening price, and a whale address that went all in on long positions has been liquidated, with less than $5 remaining after total losses.
According to Hyperinsight monitoring, SPCX opened at $150 on its first trading day, and has now fallen approximately 4.8% from that opening price, leaving just $7.8 between its current price and the $135 IPO price. On its first day, SPCX traded at an ~11.1% premium to its IPO price, and nearly half of that premium has now been erased. All whales holding long positions on the asset on Hyperliquid have moved into unrealized loss territory. Notably, an address starting with 0x8e0 that began going long on SPCX on the day it was added to the Nasdaq still holds a 20x leveraged long position worth roughly $1.985 million. The liquidation price of this position is approximately $137.98, just $4.82 away from the current price, making it the address on the platform closest to liquidation. As of press time, the position’s average entry price is $153.68, while SPCX is currently trading at around $142.80, resulting in an unrealized loss of ~$151,000 and a position return of -141.7%. Data shows this whale has been buying SPCX continuously since July 7, executing a total of 190 trades to open 13,903.45 long contracts, with execution prices ranging from $145.99 to $156.22, for a total trading volume of ~$2.137 million.

Daiwa cuts Tencent's target price to HK$670, revises its AI capital expenditure and earnings forecasts.
Daiwa Securities released a research report projecting that Tencent Holdings will raise its AI capital expenditure expectations, which will pressure its mid-term earnings. Meanwhile, its gaming business growth has slowed amid a high base, though its market share growth momentum remains intact. The brokerage cut Tencent’s 2026 to 2028 earnings per share (EPS) forecasts by 1% to 6% to reflect these impacts. Daiwa sharply raised Tencent’s 2026 AI capital expenditure forecast from the original 108 billion yuan to around 181 billion yuan, to reflect the company’s stronger commitment to AI investment and improved chip supply. While higher depreciation will weigh on its near-term and mid-term earnings performance, this is also expected to drive faster expansion of its cloud business and monetization of AI demand, with such benefits anticipated to materialize as early as the second half of 2026. Daiwa maintained its "Buy" rating on Tencent, lowering its target price from HK$700 to HK$670.

Robinhood Founder’s Mnemonic Phrase Leaks During a Live Stream; Hackers Exploit the Leak to Hype Meme Coin $1, and the Associated Address Was Subsequently Frozen.
Token Pocket Chief Business Officer Michael posted that the seed phrase of Robinhood’s founder was leaked during his live stream. Hackers gained control over the address, then used it and associated addresses to purchase large volumes of the meme coin $1, prompting thousands of investors to follow suit. This drove the token’s market cap from roughly $500,000 to $14 million in a short period. The $1 token’s price then plummeted, with its trading volume hitting around $20 million in just two hours. After the relevant address was frozen, hackers quickly moved to BNB Chain (BSC), issued new tokens using that address and its associated addresses, created trading hype through wash trading, and eventually dumped the tokens to cash out. Robinhood’s RPC has frozen the address, with nodes refusing to include transactions from it, making transfers and trading impossible.

Japanese Prime Minister: To strengthen support for startups and continuously advance the development of Japan's Web3 innovation ecosystem.
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi reaffirmed during her pre-recorded opening address at WebX 2026 that the Japanese government will step up support for startups. She noted that with the synergy between the Web3 conference and government support policies, Japan’s innovation ecosystem is poised for further growth. Takaichi first touched on WebX’s positioning, stating that as one of Asia’s largest conferences focused on Web3 social applications and built on blockchain technology, WebX draws around 15,000 global attendees, making it highly significant. “This conference attracts numerous startups and hosts matchmaking events with various investment institutions,” she said. “For Web3 practitioners, it serves as an important platform for equal exchanges on the future of society and industry, mutual knowledge enhancement, and fostering further business collaborations—holding great importance.” Successive Japanese cabinets have consistently advanced Web3 strategies. Since the Kishida administration formulated the “Five-Year Startup Development Plan,” both the Ishiba administration and the current Takaichi administration have leveraged the WebX platform to directly convey policy signals to the industry. This demonstrates that Japan’s policy direction for promoting Web3 development has remained unchanged despite cabinet reshuffles, maintaining strong policy continuity.

Renewed U.S.-Iran tensions boost rate hike expectations, with 2-year U.S. Treasury yields hitting their highest level in over a year.
As renewed tensions in Iran push up oil prices and spark market speculation that the Federal Reserve may need to raise interest rates to curb inflation, the yield on the 2-year U.S. Treasury note has climbed to its highest level since early 2025. The rate-sensitive 2-year Treasury yield rose as much as 3 basis points to 4.24%, hitting a new high since February 2025; the benchmark 10-year Treasury yield also gained 3 basis points to 4.59%. Swap market data shows the market has now almost fully priced in the expectation of a Federal Reserve rate hike in September, compared with a roughly 66% probability a week ago. “The market is currently very sensitive to news related to Iran,” said Kenneth Crompton, head of rates strategy at the National Australia Bank. “The market did not expect tensions to repeat the situation seen in March, but given the ongoing attacks over the weekend and strikes on Russian oil refining facilities, a sense of caution is creeping back into market sentiment.”

Fed Mouthpiece: Warsh Faces First Major Decision on Reversing Last Year’s Fed Rate Cuts
Fed Whisperer Nick Timiraos noted that last month, Walsh, in his first meeting as Federal Reserve Chair, presided over a unanimous decision to keep interest rates unchanged. Reaching that consensus was straightforward at the time, as there was little willingness for action within the committee. However, maintaining this consensus in the weeks ahead will grow far more difficult. Some of Walsh’s colleagues have seen their concerns about inflation intensify, and they may push to discuss interest rate hikes when the Federal Reserve holds its meeting on July 28-29. This week, during his congressional testimony, Walsh will have the opportunity to steer the formation of this consensus, armed with the latest June inflation data—the final major data release before the meeting.

The flagship meme coin of the new Robinhood Chain network, Cash Cat (CASHCAT), has been put through a brutal market test. During trading, the price of the token's perpetual futures on Hyperliquid briefly collapsed by more than 60%.
The chart printed a massive vertical wick downward — from peak levels above $0.190 to a local bottom near $0.080 — before the price quickly rebounded.
Robinhood Chain, a new Ethereum-based Layer 2 network, launched only recently, and the CASHCAT token became its main growth driver. The coin's name was not chosen by accident: "Cash Cat" was Robinhood's original working name during the broker's early development.
HOT Stories
CashCat price chart on Hyperliquid, Source: HyperliquidFueled by the historical reference and speculative interest, the token delivered a phenomenal debut, surging 4,000% in less than a week while its market capitalization exceeded $200 million. The frenzy was so intense that daily trading volume on Robinhood Chain reached $846 million, temporarily surpassing the activity of many mature DeFi platforms.

For the meme coin sector, such rallies followed by brutal crashes are completely routine and predictable. Extreme volatility is built into the very nature of these assets, where fundamental value is replaced by pure hype and panic spreads instantly. In the case of CASHCAT, the situation was intensified by the derivatives market.
The main arena for speculation was Hyperliquid. The platform accounts for the lion's share of all futures activity involving the token — more than 70% of total trading volume. Given the high speed of decentralized protocols, this domino effect cut the contract price on Hyperliquid in half within minutes, sending it as low as the local $0.080 level.
Trading volume on the crash candle, measured by the Volume SMA, briefly exceeded 9.8 million tokens.
What is happening with Cash Cat now?The panic faded as quickly as it began. At the moment, the price has recovered and is fluctuating around $0.170–$0.173, while the oracle index price stands at $0.17316.
The incident did not strip Cash Cat of its status as the flagship token of the new network, but it served as another reminder that, in the meme coin market, the distance between an all-time high and the complete liquidation of a trading account can sometimes be measured in just a few seconds.
Hyperion and Hyperliquid have emerged as the only decentralized asset tokens (DATs) currently reporting a positive unrealized profit and loss (PnL), as noted by Cointelegraph. This suggests that their open positions are currently in profit, contrasting with other DATs experiencing net unrealized losses. Hyperion DeFi, an ecosystem builder, advocates for Hyperliquid, a decentralized exchange known for supporting perpetual futures. The positive unrealized PnL suggests that these platforms or their users are holding profitable positions in the current market conditions.

Key Takeaways Cointelegraph’s report suggests Hyperion and Hyperliquid are in a strong financial position with positive unrealized PnL. This development appears consistent with increased interest and potential growth in volume for Hyperliquid. Market pricing indicates a potential rise in Hyperliquid’s value, with the December 31, 2026 market showing a 41.5% probability of reaching $100. What to Watch Market participants may want to monitor any announcements of partnerships or technological advancements from Hyperliquid, as these could further influence market sentiment. Additionally, any significant shifts in volume or institutional interest may indicate changes in the perceived viability of Hyperliquid reaching its price targets. Observers will also be keenly watching for any regulatory developments or security concerns that could impact market stability.

US Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs both ended their 8-week consecutive outflows, posting a combined net inflow of $281.8 million this week.
U.S. spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded a combined net inflow of $281.8 million this week, ending an 8-week streak of outflows that began in early May. Specifically, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a net inflow of roughly $197.4 million last week, putting an end to their own 8-week outflow cycle. Prior to this, Bitcoin ETFs had logged a cumulative outflow of about $8.26 billion over those 8 weeks—the longest consecutive outflow period since they started trading in January 2024. Ethereum spot ETFs, meanwhile, posted a net inflow of approximately $84.4 million last week, also wrapping up 8 straight weeks of outflows. Before that, Ethereum ETFs had seen roughly $1.2 billion in outflows over 8 weeks, matching the all-time longest outflow record set between February and April 2025. The current rebound remains modest relative to the earlier outflows: Bitcoin ETFs have recouped only around 2.4% of the funds lost in the prior 8-week period, while Ethereum ETFs have recovered roughly 7%. As of early 2026, Bitcoin ETFs have a year-to-date net outflow of about $5.34 billion, and Ethereum ETFs have a year-to-date net outflow of approximately $1.35 billion.

JPMorgan Chase is testing an AI investment agent that can autonomously adjust stock and bond allocations.
JPMorgan Chase is testing AI agents that can autonomously adjust the proportion of stock and bond investments to dynamically rebalance portfolios based on changes in market conditions. Test results show that in a 20-year historical backtest, the best-performing AI model delivered an annualized return 0.7 percentage points higher than the traditional "60/40" stock-bond portfolio, while also boasting lower volatility. All 8 AI agents tested by JPMorgan achieved higher risk-adjusted returns. However, the bank noted that the results are still based on simulated tests and do not represent actual investment performance. JPMorgan also warned that large-scale adoption of AI could lead to convergence of trading strategies, increase crowded trades, and amplify market volatility under stressed conditions.

Analyst: Bitcoin may be entering the final stage of a bear market, projected to rise to $250,000 over the next two to three years.
Real Vision’s chief crypto analyst Jamie Coutts has stated that Bitcoin may be entering the late stages of its current bear market. While the bear market is not yet over, downward momentum has begun to weaken. The current BTC price is roughly 50% lower than its all-time high of $126,100 set in October 2025. Coutts described the current trend as a “typical bear market,” pointing out that Bitcoin’s volatility has fallen by around 50% compared to the previous cycle, suggesting this downturn may not be as severe as prior bear markets. However, he cautioned that all current trend indicators remain clearly bearish, and markets do not mechanically replicate historical cycles. He noted that longer-term momentum indicators are starting to show bullish divergence, signaling that negative momentum is decelerating—but this does not mean Bitcoin has technically exited the bear market. Beyond tightening global liquidity, deteriorating on-chain demand was a key factor driving Bitcoin’s earlier decline. On long-term price projections, Coutts is cautious about Bitcoin reaching $1 million by 2030; instead, he forecasts BTC will rise to $200,000–$250,000 over the next two to three years. He also warned that the Bitcoin community needs to address the potential threat of quantum computing more definitively by 2027, as major protocol upgrades could take approximately five years to complete.

The probability that Bitcoin will rise to $70,000 this year has climbed to 79%.
Prediction market platform Polymarket now puts the probability of Bitcoin rising to $70,000 this year at 79%, up from 54% as of June 26. Additionally, the odds of Bitcoin hitting $80,000 stand at 32%, while the probability of it reaching $90,000 is 19%.
The price of Hyperliquid’s native token, HYPE, recently retreated from its peak near $76-$77, but analysts maintain that the overall trend remains positive as long as key technical supports hold.
Key technical structure supports bullish outlookOn the 4-hour HYPEUSDT chart, market analyst CH_Indicator noted that HYPE continues to trade above the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA), a widely watched indicator for medium- and long-term trend direction. According to CH_Indicator, this ongoing strength in the market structure indicates that bullish momentum remains intact.
The analyst identified a recent pullback towards $66.93 as a retest of multiple Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) created during HYPE’s earlier rally to $72. Fair Value Gaps are often seen in technical analysis as zones where the price may revisit to balance order flow and liquidity before undertaking its next move.
CH_Indicator stated,
The market is showing a solid macro bullish structure, heavily supported by the 200 EMA dynamic filter.
As long as HYPE maintains levels above its recent higher low, the bullish setup should remain valid. Technical weakness would be signaled by a decisive close beneath approximately $58.50, while a breakout above $77.50 could trigger the next expansion phase. Above that threshold, technical analysis points to a potential upside target between $89.00 and $92.50, where the next significant liquidity concentration is expected.
Mini dictionary: Fair Value Gap (FVG) — In technical analysis, an FVG is an area on a price chart where little or no trading occurred, often seen as a zone that prices may revisit to correct imbalances in liquidity.
HYPE outpaces leading cryptocurrenciesRecent research from BSCNews, referencing data by ElanInsights, shows HYPE has significantly outperformed a basket of the top 10 cryptocurrencies over the past year. The divergence became especially pronounced in June 2026, as HYPE recorded an 88% gain, while the comparison basket saw a 39% decline for the same period.
Performance data indicates that since late January, HYPE’s upward trajectory has remained stronger than the broader market, even during periods of widespread weakness. The Hyperliquid protocol, a Layer-1 blockchain specializing in decentralized perpetual futures trading, continues to benefit from robust trading activity, token buybacks, and increasing institutional attention. With cumulative trading volume surpassing $1 trillion and recent inclusion in major crypto indices, the project’s prominence has grown steadily.
Mini dictionary: Hyperliquid — A Layer-1 blockchain network focused on decentralized perpetual futures trading. The platform is known for its strong trading activity and mechanisms that direct trading-fee revenue toward token buybacks.
AssetPerformance (June 2026)HYPE+88%Top 10 crypto basket-39%Analysts monitor $70–$77 resistanceTechnical analyst cryptoastro0x highlighted a narrowing price formation on HYPE’s daily timeframe, as converging trendlines signal lower volatility. The analysis points to the $70–$71 region as a hurdle that must be regained before tackling resistance near $75.30. A move above these levels would further validate the bullish scenario, particularly after HYPE broke out of a descending channel on the 4-hour chart.
For immediate support, the $65–$66 area is seen as critical. Should HYPE fall below this zone, risk of a correction towards $58–$60 would increase, in line with other analysts’ key invalidation levels. Rather than pre-empting the next trend, cryptoastro0x emphasized waiting for price confirmation before taking new positions.
Moving averages favor the uptrendAccording to TradingView’s technical summary, HYPEUSDT holds a “Buy” rating, underpinned by moving-average configurations across all time horizons, including the 10, 20, 30, 50, 100, and 200 periods. This alignment typically characterizes a market in a solid uptrend.
Momentum oscillators, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI), MACD, Stochastic, ADX, CCI, and Williams %R, register neutral readings, hinting at a balanced standoff between buyers and sellers. TradingView did not provide individual numeric values for some indicators due to a closed market snapshot. Neutral readings suggest a potential consolidation phase after recent gains, leaving open the prospect of renewed momentum once a direction is established.
HYPE price prediction: Key levels to watchWhile HYPE remains above the 200 EMA and Technical Buy ratings persist, analysts see the token in the midst of a bullish trend, despite current consolidation. Multiple observers identify the present retest of the Fair Value Gap as consistent with a healthy pause in a larger uptrend, rather than the start of a reversal.
Key levels include support at $66–$67 and resistance at $70–$71. If HYPE can maintain support and produce a sustained move above $77.50, analysts are focused on the next possible target between $89.00 and $92.50. A closing price below $58.50, however, would negate the current bullish structure and prioritize a deeper corrective move.
The immediate focus is whether HYPE can defend support above $66 while reclaiming $70–$71, setting up for a decisive push toward the $77.50 breakout zone.

Hyperliquid’s native token HYPE has held firm above key support levels, with analysts pointing to strong breakout potential if current momentum continues. The project, an on-chain perpetual trading platform, has gained attention for its aggressive buyback and token burn strategy, which has significantly reduced circulating supply and reinforced long-term value for investors.
Technical strength and support levelsAt $67.53, HYPE has seen $268.62 million in 24-hour trading volume and holds a market capitalization of $17.08 billion. Despite largely stable movements in recent sessions, technical indicators suggest upward momentum could strengthen if buying pressure persists.
Crypto analyst Umair Orakzai described HYPE’s price consolidation as being within an ascending triangle pattern, which typically favors a continuation of the current trend. Orakzai highlighted the importance of maintaining support at $62 and closing above the key $68.60 resistance level to confirm a breakout.
Analysts note that securing a close above $68.60 could drive momentum toward the $80 mark, while losing the $62 support might prompt a retracement to the $57 range, aligning with the current value area low (VAL).
LevelPriceImplicationSupport$62Drop below may signal decline to $57Resistance$68.60Breakout above may target $80Market Cap$17.08 billionCurrent capitalizationDeflationary tokenomics and buybacksHyperliquid stands out among decentralized perpetual trading platforms for its strongly deflationary token model. The protocol dedicates nearly 97% of trading revenue to buy back and permanently remove HYPE tokens from circulation through burns, significantly outpacing the deflation rates of most major cryptocurrencies.
Live supply data shows the annual growth rate for HYPE is just 0.14%. For comparison, Ethereum’s supply increases by 0.83% per year, while Solana adds 3.76%.
The project’s statistics indicate that nearly 45 million HYPE tokens have already been burned through ongoing buybacks. This mechanism creates what is commonly referred to as a flywheel effect, where increased trading activity results in larger revenues, fueling more aggressive buybacks and accelerating supply reduction.
Mini dictionary: Hyperliquid is a decentralized perpetuals trading platform offering high-speed, on-chain order books and unique tokenomics based on real trading revenue.
Future outlook and market contextDespite bullish forecasts and the ongoing buyback program, HYPE’s price has recently remained range-bound. However, market sentiment across the crypto sector has shifted positive as Bitcoin extends its advance, and many traders are closely watching for a decisive move in HYPE’s price action.
Whether HYPE maintains its floor at $62 and surpasses $68.60 is expected to determine its next major move, with a potential run to $80 if momentum resumes. Conversely, a break below support could see prices test the $57 level.
Hyperliquid’s sustained buybacks and token burns are designed to support its future valuation, with many market participants seeing this model as a key factor in its appeal. The next trading sessions are considered crucial for HYPE’s direction.

Analyst: Bitcoin may be entering the final stage of a bear market, projected to rise to $250,000 over the next two to three years.
Real Vision’s chief crypto analyst Jamie Coutts has stated that Bitcoin may be entering the late stages of its current bear market. While the bear market is not yet over, downward momentum has begun to weaken. The current BTC price is roughly 50% lower than its all-time high of $126,100 set in October 2025. Coutts described the current trend as a “typical bear market,” pointing out that Bitcoin’s volatility has fallen by around 50% compared to the previous cycle, suggesting this downturn may not be as severe as prior bear markets. However, he cautioned that all current trend indicators remain clearly bearish, and markets do not mechanically replicate historical cycles. He noted that longer-term momentum indicators are starting to show bullish divergence, signaling that negative momentum is decelerating—but this does not mean Bitcoin has technically exited the bear market. Beyond tightening global liquidity, deteriorating on-chain demand was a key factor driving Bitcoin’s earlier decline. On long-term price projections, Coutts is cautious about Bitcoin reaching $1 million by 2030; instead, he forecasts BTC will rise to $200,000–$250,000 over the next two to three years. He also warned that the Bitcoin community needs to address the potential threat of quantum computing more definitively by 2027, as major protocol upgrades could take approximately five years to complete.

US-listed ETFs' assets under management climbed to $15.6 trillion, notching a new all-time high.
The Kobeissi Letter noted that the assets under management (AUM) of U.S.-listed ETFs have climbed to a record $15.6 trillion, doubling over the past 30 months. Year-to-date, investors have allocated more than $1 trillion to U.S.-listed ETFs, nearly double the year-to-date record set in 2025. At the current pace, full-year inflows are on track to top $2 trillion for the first time, roughly 33% higher than last year’s all-time high. In June alone, U.S. ETFs pulled in around $193 billion in inflows, marking the second-highest monthly inflow on record. Demand has been concentrated in U.S. large-cap, semiconductor, AI, and South Korea-focused ETFs, with the U.S. ETF market’s growth accelerating.
JPMorgan Chase is testing an AI investment agent that can autonomously adjust stock and bond allocations.
JPMorgan Chase is testing AI agents that can autonomously adjust the proportion of stock and bond investments to dynamically rebalance portfolios based on changes in market conditions. Test results show that in a 20-year historical backtest, the best-performing AI model delivered an annualized return 0.7 percentage points higher than the traditional "60/40" stock-bond portfolio, while also boasting lower volatility. All 8 AI agents tested by JPMorgan achieved higher risk-adjusted returns. However, the bank noted that the results are still based on simulated tests and do not represent actual investment performance. JPMorgan also warned that large-scale adoption of AI could lead to convergence of trading strategies, increase crowded trades, and amplify market volatility under stressed conditions.

The new Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) Robinhood Chain has surpassed Hyperliquid and BNB Chain in speculative interest.
A week ago, Robinhood’s DEX volume (which tracks trading volume and broader speculative interest) was less than $10M.
As of writing, the daily DEX volume has hit a record level of $600M, making it the fourth dominant chain in speculative activity.
In the past two days, it has effectively surpassed BNB Chain and Hyperliquid on this front thanks to Robinhood’s CEO’s memecoin bet.
Source: DeFiLlama As Robinhood Chain-based memecoins like CashCat [CASHCAT] went viral and posted massive gains, the FOMO attracted users and capital inflows.
Robinhood’s memecoin frenzy sparks L2 debate If the memecoin mania persists, it could surpass Base in DEX volume to become the third-largest place for speculative trading.
Worth pointing out that Uniswap crossed $1B in volume on Robinhood Chain since launch, further underscoring how crazy the memecoin mania is on the new L2.
Source: DeFiLlama But critics have been opposing the memecoin push. Most questioned the need for another Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) if its use case is risky memecoin speculation. The debate has since evolved to whether L2 growth benefits ETH’s value.
For Bankless’ David Hoffman, L2s aren’t helpful to ETH.
By now it seems more clear that L2s are largely independent blockchains and the vast majority of economics is not captured by ETH (by design).
Uniswap CEO Hayden Adam countered that most of the pairs on the chain are denominated in ETH and will eventually help burn more ETH, especially if the RWA narrative picks up momentum.
Source: X Do Layer 2s actually help Ethereum? The L2 roadmap has been under heavy criticism. With corporate chains such as Stripe’s Tempo, SWIFT, and more, the criticism has deepened.
For lawyer Gabriel Shapiro, the entire roadmap was ‘poorly executed’ to benefit ETH value.
The roadmap was just very poorly executed so that it’s mostly negative to ETH & leaves the L2s with too much optionality to become L1s, no real lock-in.
Ethereum’s best shot at scaling was through L2s, and recent upgrades have made them cheaper and attracted more traffic.
But this has also reduced the number of ETH burned, making the asset inflationary and denting its ‘store of value’ narrative.
Source: Ultrasoundmoney Whether the renewed L2 debate will drag ETH’s market sentiment and price remains to be seen. As of writing, Ethereum [ETH] traded at $1.8K, a key inflection point that could trigger the next leg of price recovery or another pullback.
Final Summary Robinhood L2 has become the fourth largest on-chain place for speculative trading, flipping BNB Chain and Hyperliquid Amid the hype, Ethereum L2s are under scrutiny again for being non-beneficial to ETH’s value
TLDR: CASHCAT price moved toward $0.20 after an early trader sold 15.04 million tokens for 580 ETH, converting an initial $838 purchase into about $1.04 million. The completed sale produced an estimated 1,183x return, although the same holdings could have reached about $2.9 million at a later market valuation. CASHCAT has expanded from Robinhood Chain to Solana through Sunrise, giving the token access to new wallets, exchanges, and liquidity pools. Hyperliquid has introduced CASHCAT perpetual futures with up to 3x leverage, adding short exposure and greater liquidation risk during volatile sessions. The CASHCAT price climbed toward $0.20 on July 11 after an early trader recorded one of the token’s largest documented exits. The wallet turned a 0.49 ETH purchase, worth about $838, into 580 ETH valued near $1.04 million. The completed sale delivered an estimated 1,183x return.
Bitcoin held near $64,000, while Ethereum traded close to $1,800. The CASHCAT price gained about 15% over 24 hours, strongly outperforming the wider market.
The rally also comes as CASHCAT expands beyond Robinhood Chain. Solana access through Sunrise and a new Hyperliquid perpetual market have widened its trading routes.
Lookonchain reported that the wallet bought 15.04 million CASHCAT with 0.49 ETH. It later sold the full position for 580 ETH, securing more than $1 million in realized profit. The tracker estimated that holding longer could have lifted the position’s value near $2.9 million.
The full exit matters since many meme coin success stories rely on unsold balances. This wallet converted the entire position back into ETH. That move provides a clearer measure of realized gains during the CASHCAT price rally.
Lookonchain also suggested the wallet could belong to crypto creator Brian Jung. No public on-chain evidence confirms that link. Jung separately posted that he cashed out more than $1 million from CASHCAT and missed an additional seven-figure upside.
Other early traders show the timing risk around the Robinhood Chain token. One wallet reportedly turned an $86 purchase into about $1.6 million after selling part of its holdings. Another trader sold 20 million tokens for only $711 before the same balance later reached a multimillion-dollar estimated value.
Solana Expansion Adds New Liquidity and Trading Routes CASHCAT began as a community token linked to Robinhood’s earlier Cash Cat name. Its story gained traction after Robinhood Chain launched and attracted trading across new ecosystem assets. The Solana meme coin now trades across more than one venue and network.
Solana confirmed that CASHCAT went live through Sunrise. The platform brings external assets onto Solana through issuer-designated canonical tokens. The listing gives users access through Solana wallets, aggregators, and decentralized exchanges.
Hyperliquid added CASHCAT perpetual futures with leverage capped at 3x. Traders can now take long or short exposure without holding the spot token. Derivatives may lift turnover, although they also create faster liquidation risk during sharp price moves.
CASHCAT price traded near $0.199 during the latest DEX Screener check. The Robinhood Chain pair held about $11.5 million in liquidity and a market capitalization near $197.8 million. Its 24-hour volume reached roughly $31.9 million, split between $16.3 million in buys and $15.6 million in sells.
Source: Coingecko That liquidity remains small compared with the token’s market value. Large exits can therefore move the CASHCAT price quickly, especially after leveraged markets attract short-term traders. Copycat contracts on Solana also raise verification risks for buyers searching the ticker across different pools.

Hyperliquid (HYPE) is maintaining a bullish technical setup as the cryptocurrency holds steady despite a period of price consolidation. Technical analysts noted that recent chart patterns continue to support strong buyer activity, while the project’s latest achievement—a spot on a major crypto index fund—has brought new institutional attention.
Technical analysis points to cup and handle breakoutAt last check, HYPE traded at $67.07 with a 24-hour volume of $347.94 million and a market capitalization of $17.01 billion. While the price remained relatively flat over the past day, chart analysts focused on the cryptocurrency’s potential for a bullish reversal.
Crypto analyst Bitcoin Meraklisi reported a confirmed cup-and-handle breakout pattern on the HYPE chart following an extended period of accumulation. The token surged above a critical neckline near the $57 to $59 range and successfully retested this support zone. This move, according to the analyst, affirms the positive market structure and indicates that buyers are confident in defending higher price levels.
After breaking above $57–59 and successfully retesting the region, HYPE has solidified its bullish technical formation. If the price remains above $66–68, continued upward momentum is likely. Breaching $74.60 could lead to a further rally fueled by increased demand.
Shortly after the technical breakout, HYPE rallied toward $74.60 before entering a period of sideways consolidation around $69.25. Market observers interpreted this movement as healthy profit-taking rather than a loss of upward momentum.
If HYPE maintains support above $66 to $68, traders indicate the bullish outlook remains intact. On the upside, surpassing $74.60 could pave the way for a fresh rally. Conversely, losing support at the $57 to $59 area would invalidate the bullish pattern and could open the door to further declines.
Price LevelTechnical Significance$57–59Support/neckline, pattern invalidated if broken$66–68Short-term support to maintain bullish momentum$74.60Breakout level, triggers new rally if surpassed$172Long-term technical targetHYPE secures position in Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETFHyperliquid achieved a key milestone when Bitwise, a leading digital asset manager, announced the inclusion of HYPE in its Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF (BITW). This exchange-traded fund is among the world’s largest diversified crypto index funds.
BITW will now allocate 0.95% of its holdings to HYPE, marking a significant recognition of the token’s market prominence. Analysts said this new status could boost HYPE’s visibility among institutional investors and reinforce its standing as a major digital asset.
Hyperliquid is a decentralized derivatives trading platform that has recently gained traction in the digital asset sector. Its focus on offering fast, transparent on-chain perpetual swaps and a growing ecosystem has drawn the attention of both retail and institutional market participants.
Mini dictionary: Bitwise 10 Crypto Index ETF (BITW): An exchange-traded fund managed by Bitwise Asset Management that tracks the performance of the ten largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, offering diversified exposure for investors.
Market context and outlookWhile HYPE’s price is currently in a neutral range, the broader market sentiment is shifting upward, in part due to renewed momentum in Bitcoin. A continued move higher in BTC has had a positive spillover effect on several altcoins, including HYPE.
Long-term technical targets for HYPE point toward $172, provided the overall bullish structure is preserved and the price stays above critical support levels, according to market analysts.
Maintaining price action above the key neckline remains vital for further gains, while falling below that range could signal a shift out of the bullish scenario.
