VanEck CEO Jan van Eck Makes Bold Public Push for Hyperliquid Partnership
VanEck's chief just threw a heavyweight pitch—publicly courting Hyperliquid in what could become one of crypto's most watched institutional hookups.
Why This Move Matters
Jan van Eck isn’t whispering behind closed doors. He’s taking the partnership talk public—signaling confidence and turning up the heat on Hyperliquid to respond. This isn’t just a meeting; it’s a statement.
Institutional Crypto Is Evolving—Fast
Gone are the days of vague crypto fund proposals. VanEck’s play here is specific, aggressive, and timed for impact. They’re not asking for permission—they’re shaping the narrative.
A Nod to Decentralization—With a TradFi Twist
Even traditional finance giants now see the writing on the blockchain: adapt or become irrelevant. Sure, it’s another 'strategic alignment'—but this one might actually matter.
One cynical take? It’s almost like VanEck wants in before the next bull run—so they can say they were early, again.
Token Performance and Market Potential
The native token of Hyperliquid, HYPE, has been on an all-time high of $54.27, up 21% in seven days, as per CoinMarketCap. The surge is an indication of increased investor confidence with a 24 hour trading volume of $412 million. Hypers features such as zero-gas-fee trades and up to 50x leverage are drawing traders and increasing the market cap of HYPE.
According to the June 2025 report of the Bank for International Settlement, VanEck is interested in the $255 billion market of stablecoins and Hyperliquid is also about to launch its stablecoin USDH. So is this a hint at proposing to launch Hyperliquid stablecoin USDH by VanEck?
