$340 million worth of HYPE unlocks tomorrow morning, and a whale is holding a 5x leveraged long.
So what will tomorrow bring—a sell-off, or a squeeze that takes out everyone who shorted too early?
I think that’s what’s most worth watching with HYPE tonight.
The average person’s first reaction is simple:
A huge amount of tokens is unlocking, so supply is suddenly increasing. Of course you should short ahead of it.
But that’s the tricky thing about trading—**when everyone knows the unlock is coming tomorrow, is it still bearish news?**
The market has already started pricing in that expectation.
Even more interestingly, on-chain data shows a whale holding a 5x leveraged long of around 1.38 million HYPE, with a massive unrealized profit.
So tomorrow, what I’ll be watching isn’t the word “unlock”—it’s this:
**Will there actually be large-scale selling pressure after the unlock?**
If a large number of tokens are released but HYPE refuses to drop, I’ll be on alert for one thing:
**The shorts who got in early could be the fuel for the next rally.**
But if it breaks below key support on heavy volume after the unlock, then there’s no need for a story—the market has already given its answer.
That’s why I’m not going to blindly short just because I see the words “$340 million unlock” tonight.
**I’ll be back at 8 a.m. tomorrow to see how it played out.**
What do you think—will the longs get liquidated first, or the shorts?
