1/ 🔥 Unlocks Spotlight: HYPE
HYPE is set to record the largest unlock by $ value in the upcoming week, with tokens vesting to core contributors.
📈 Despite this, price surged +30% WoW.
What’s driving the strength:
• HIP-3 launch (Builder-Deployed Perps) unlocked permissionless perp creation
• Volume & OI hit ATH near $1.1B, driven by tokenized gold & silver perps
• Kraken listing + appearance on Coinbase to-list roadmap boosted confidence
🧠 Key update on supply risk:
The team confirmed only ~140k HYPE units will be claimed for team unlocks over the coming months, down from ~1.2M units previously → materially reducing near-term sell pressure.
📌 Looking ahead:
HYPE still faces a heavy emission profile over the next 12 months, but as long as revenue and activity continue scaling, future unlocks may remain manageable. Usage and fees will be the metrics to watch.(Tokenomist)
