šø Overview sets the tone
āļø Choppy, cautious observation
Itās around 3 a.m. and I took a look at CoinGeckoās 24h leaderboard. Honestly, it stirred up some feelings. Us old leek hands have been through several cycles of bull and bear, and we know one truth: when the leaderboard moves, the money moves too; when the money moves, the story moves. From last night till now, there are three things that truly got me to sit up out of bed: GPS woke up overnight at +46.8%, HYPE is holding steady while propped up at $58.9, and BTC is still hovering above $63,000. The other ones like LINK, PUMP, and FET are more like joining the buzzāno need to go into them for now.
In my view, whatās most worth a deep dive in this round of the leaderboard isnāt the gains themselves, but the logic behind the next question: āwhy itās hot.ā Why did GPS get to +47% in a day? Why is HYPE staying in the top ten and barely pulling back? Under the ETF channel, what exactly is BTC āholding backā for? Three questions, three linesāletās break them down one by one below.
šø Deep dive into Project A: GoPlus Security (GPS)
š Bullish
Letās start with GPS.$GPS This wave is up +46.80% in a single day; its market cap has been cut from outside the top 250 to #275. Donāt be fooled by the small numbersāwhat you need to know is that its 24h trading activity is extremely intense. On the previous trading day, the entire networkās search volume surged straight to #1 on CoinGecko. We opened on-chain data: the number of token-holding addresses added 186,000 over the past 7 days, with growth even stronger than that SOL meme surge. The top 10 holders account for 31.4%, with relatively dispersed distributionāno obvious "whale mouse-trader dumping" structure.
So why is it hot? Put simply, GPS isnāt a conceptāitās real demand. Over the past few years, Web3 has been educated through phishing, private key leaks, and unauthorized approval thefts. Everyone realizes security infrastructure is a must-have. What GPS does is package "detect malicious contracts / identify phishing addresses / simulate transaction results" into an API, providing underlying calls for wallets, DApps, and aggregators. In simple terms, itās the "antivirus for the Web3 world + a fraud-alert anti-scam center."
From the EMA perspective, after GPS broke above the 20-day line, there was a high-volume breakout. In the 4-hour chart, RSI once surged to 78, nearing the overbought zone. But a pattern of "mega volume on day one + subsequent trades not fading" usually isnāt a bull trapāitās typically a "consensus formation period" where institutions are sweeping up and retail is following. EMA20 is currently $0.0118, EMA60 is $0.0097. Thereās still a buffer of distance to the current price $0.0146, meaning short-term pullbacks likely wonāt immediately break down.
My take: In the short term, with a confluence of liquidity and technicals, it can keep pushing higher. Next resistance is around $0.0185. The invalidation line is: if the daily close is below $0.012 and the volume shrinks by more than 30%, then once that happens, reduce positions unconditionally.
How I would play it: Position size only 3ā5% of total, not heavy. For this kind of early-valuation doubling coin, volatility is highāyou eat the fish body, not the fish tail. For entry, choose pullbacks toward EMA20 and scale in: first at $0.0135, second at $0.0125. Stop-loss is $0.0108. After it breaks above $0.018, cut the position in half and keep the remainder to bet on the narrative.
šø Deep dive into Project B: Hyperliquid (HYPE)
š Bullish
HYPEāI've been tracking it since it was around $7. Back then, its market cap was outside the top 70, and most people still treated it like it was nothing. From there it climbed to $58.9. Up 3.30% in the last 24h, it looks pretty slow and steady. But over the past 30 days, the cumulative gain is 41.2%. This isnāt a violent meme pumpāthis is the slow-bull run you would expect from an "institution-grade decentralized perpetual contracts trading exchange."
Why is it hot? Two key reasons: First, data speaks. Over the past 30 days, HYPEās on-chain liquidation volume reached $584 million, with a daily peak above $410 million. The real trading depth has already moved into the top 10 among global derivatives exchanges. It isnāt powered by subsidiesāitās driven by real hedging and arbitrage flow. This kind of "non-scheme farming" traffic is very rare. Second, valuation models. Senior analyst @KaitoMacro provided a framework in his research note on July 14: the reasonable valuation range for HYPE is $62ā78, corresponding to $3.1ā3.9 billion in annualized net profit. But right now itās only about half of the early-2024 expectations. If you look at GMV-to-revenue multiples versus peers in the same track like dYdX, the valuations there give 12x, while HYPE is currently only 8.5xāclearly a discount.
Technicals: HYPE formed a strong support around $53.2āthis is a level that was probed 5 times in the past 14 days without breaking. EMA20 is at 56.7, EMA60 at 51.4, and the current price of 58.96 is above all moving averages. For upside resistance, first look at 62.0; after breaking through, thereās a vacuum zone near the historical high around 67.5. On volume distribution: in the $60ā65 range, $320 million of turnover has piled up. To break through that area, you need more than just moneyāyou need consensus.
My take: In the mid term, HYPE is following the "crypto version of Robinhood valuation repair" route. Target price is $72ā78, with a 6ā10 week window. The invalidation line is: a daily close below $52 and a continuous decline for 3 straight days in on-chain active addresses.
How I would act: Keep holding the spot core 40% as-is. This dip-and-wash around $56 hasnāt broken structure, which suggests support is effective. The remaining 60%āhalf will be trimmed at 62.5, and the other half will be fully cleared at 67.5. If it retraces back into the 53ā54 zone, Iāll add back again, because opportunities at this kind of level are rare.
šø Quick take on Project C: Bitcoin (BTC)
āļø Consolidationāwatch and wait
BTC is currently at $63,431, up 0.90% over the last 24hāfairly "calm as still water." But Iāve been watching ETF-channel data for more than two months. Let me share a few key numbers: Last night around 23:00, IBIT had a net inflow of $87 million; FBTC inflow was $54 million; Grayscaleās GBTC had a net outflow of $32 million. Net total: $109 million inflow. This number isnāt huge, but it has been positive for 11 straight trading days, totaling $3.74 billion. What does that mean? The main players are slowly accumulatingānot rushing to buy.
From the market angle, BTC is currently stuck oscillating in the $63,000ā64,500 rangeāa $1,500 band. The daily chart has printed several doji candles, and RSI is stuck around 52, neither here nor there. On-chain data: the long-term holdersā position ratio has only slightly dipped from 72.4% at the beginning of July to 71.8%, almost unchanged. This indicates the old coins havenāt moved.
My take: In the short term, from late July to early August, this wave is likely "sideways with decreasing volume + money hiding its intent." It either moves up toward the 67,000 area, or goes down to fill the gap at 61,200. If forced to pick a direction, Iām mildly bullish because the trend of ETF-channel inflows hasnāt broken.
How I would play it: Keep the spot position at 50% unchanged. Keep 30% in cash. Use 20% leverage, and strictly donāt let it wipe you out. If it sells off to $61,500, Iāll buy in two batches. If it breaks above $64,800, Iāll add with an extra 5% position. If it drops below $60,800, Iāll stop-loss completely.
šø Overall position mindset
š Bullish
Looking at this wave, my overall position allocation is: BTC 50% (core holding), HYPE 25% (mid-term growth), GPS 5% (short-term speculation), and cash 20% (ready to buy the dip). The core of this structure is: "heavy weighting on mainstream with strong certainty + light weighting for early high-odds bets."
The essence of risk management isnāt being right in your picksāitās not getting killed by being wrong. Even if GPS halves, I wonāt feel any pain. If HYPE gets stuck in a short-term drawdown, Iām confident holding. BTC is the ballast of the whole portfolio. The three projects correspond to three different risk appetites, and they hedge each other.
šø Risk warning
āļø Consolidationāwatch and wait
In the end, I must say a few red lines: First, for a day-one mega-volume coin like GPSāonce the news cycle cools off, a 30ā50% pullback is the norm. Donāt go all-in. Second, although HYPE is a real business, its underlying foundation depends on the HYPE chain itself. If a security incident happens on-chain or regulators focus on it, the sentiment-driven valuation drop could be brutal. Third, even under the ETF channel, BTC canāt withstand macro black swan eventsāfor example, if one day the Fed suddenly turns hawkish or geopolitical conflict escalates, dropping below 60,000 isnāt impossible.
Discipline matters more than viewpoints. The secret to surviving as old retail bag-holders isnāt having the strongest technical analysisāitās living long enough.
