🚨 $HYPE just printed another all-time high. But the biggest test may be arriving tomorrow.
Hyperliquid’s HYPE reached about $84.80 on Aug. 27, extending a sharp rally. Daily trading volume also climbed above $1.2B, showing strong market participation. Market data shows HYPE remains near the mid-$80 area today.
The catalyst is bigger than price momentum. Hyperliquid activated AQAv2 on Aug. 26, with 90% of yield from roughly $6.74B in USDC deposits directed toward $HYPE buybacks. Trump has also said the CFTC is working toward a compliant path for Hyperliquid in the U.S., adding regulatory optimism.
Binance traders are already able to access HYPEUSDT perpetuals, keeping the token firmly on derivatives traders’ radar.
But here is the key risk: 14.18M HYPE tokens are scheduled to unlock on Aug. 29, valued around $1.2B at recent prices. That equals roughly 1.4% of total supply and 2.7% of market cap. Insiders receive 46.6% of the unlock, creating a potential source of selling pressure.
The bullish case: strong momentum, rising volume, buyback mechanics and growing regulatory/infrastructure attention.
The bearish case: a major supply event near record highs could trigger profit-taking or volatility. Previous unlock reactions have been mixed, so a sell-off is not guaranteed.
Watch HYPE’s reaction around the $84.80 ATH and the Aug. 29 unlock. Holding strength despite new supply would be notable.

Do you think $HYPE can absorb the unlock without losing momentum?
