$HYPE closed at $73.29, down 5.07%, on $35M of quote volume.
That is a drop of more than double $BTC's -2.19%.
$HYPE is a good example of the category where high-beta names get hit hardest in a broad repricing. The general pattern on this tape: $BTC -2.19%, BNB -2.42%, SOL -2.87%, DOGE -2.85%, ADA -3.05%, ZEC -3.94%, NEAR -4.94%, $HYPE -5.07%, XRP -5.60%, $ETH -5.73%.
The ordering is the lesson. It is not random noise, it is a beta ladder, and the top of it moves less than the bottom.
Position size should scale inversely to that ladder. A name that moves two and a half times as much as Bitcoin, in the same direction, is not a diversification. It is the same bet with more leverage. #HYPE #Altcoins #RiskManagement
