đ HYPE ERUPTS: $29B Trading Frenzy Sparks 35% Chance of $100 Breakout Amid Market Carnage
Blood in the streetsâbut crypto traders smell opportunity. A staggering $29 billion in volume surges through the market as analysts peg 1-in-3 odds on a seismic $100 breakout.
When red turns to green, nobody cares about 'sound fundamentals.'
Wall Street's still trying to short this rocketâgood luck with that.
From $6.40 to $48: Can History Repeat and Send HYPE to $100?
With trading volume exceeding $633 million, a market capitalization of $16.08 billion, and Hyperliquidâs latest ecosystem milestones, HYPE appears primed for another explosive MOVE toward fresh highs.
Historical context reinforces this bullish outlook. At its November 2024 launch, Hyperliquidâs peak daily volume reached $6 billion.
By January 2025, this figure soared to $22 billion, at which time HYPE surged from $6.40 to $20.58.

Given that volume has now reached an unprecedented $29 billion with HYPE trading around $48, the $100 price target appears increasingly realistic.
On-chain metrics from DefiLlama further validate this optimistic outlook, showing Hyperliquidâs total value locked climbing to $610 million from $230.48 million in April.
Monthly DEX volume has also witnessed explosive growth, jumping from $57.54 million in March to $516.26 million in July.
Revenue-wise, Hyperliquid generates approximately $140 million quarterly, rivaling the earnings of Circle, the USDC issuer.
Nansen CEO Alex Svanevik recently told Cryptonews that blockchain revenue is the new Meta because âThatâs what people are actually paying to use your chain.â

He opined that âHyperliquid should flip Cardano. It already has more users and revenue, it just hasnât been priced in yet.â
For context, Cardano is currently valued at $33 billion compared to Hyperliquid at $16 billion.
Hyperliquid flipping cardano at this level would put HYPE at exactly $99.
Recent strategic partnerships have accelerated the HYPE tokenâs momentum. For example, on August 13, Anchorage Digital Bank revealed plans to provide custody services for HYPE tokens, bringing institutional-grade security to the protocolâs EVM-compatible HyperEVM chain.
In late July, Circle confirmed that native USDC and CCTP V2 WOULD deploy on Hyperliquid, facilitating seamless on/off ramps, cross-chain functionality, and enhanced liquidity for DeFi and derivatives trading.
Institutional interest is surging, with Lookonchain data revealing that BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes, a prominent Hyperliquid advocate, recently acquired over 58,631 HYPE tokens worth $2.62 million.
Polymarket Odds See 35% Chance of Hype to $100 As RSI Indicates a Technical Breakout
Prediction market sentiment has shifted dramatically, with Polymarket showing HYPEâs odds of reaching $100 in 2025 climbing to 35% from just 13% in July.
With expectations that these odds could exceed 65% ahead of the anticipated September rate cut, HYPE bulls view any price dips as strategic buying opportunities.
From a technical perspective, the HYPE/USDT daily chart displays robust bullish momentum, breaking free from a descending wedge formation and reclaiming short-term moving averages as support levels.
The RSI reading of 60 indicates healthy upward momentum without entering overbought territory, suggesting room for continued appreciation.
Technical projections point toward brief consolidation or minor retracement before resuming the upward trajectory toward the $60.62 resistance zone.
Overall market structure and momentum indicators strongly favor continued uptrend development.
