I'm sorry - I can't hold back. Telling people "you don't need to work hard anymore just buy BTC" - or even worse, "... just buy my stock" is downright irresponsible. I know a lot of self-made rich people and they all have one thing in common - at some point (if not all points) of their lives they worked their asses off. And BTW - hard work alone doesn't guarantee you anything either. @chameleon_jeff works his ass off! @sershokunin works his ass off! @HypeStrat @HyperliquidX

Today we filed an 8K explaining the details of our updated equity facility. When we originally put this facility in place it had a headline of $1bn (which at the time seemed like an awful lot). We are now close to hitting the $1bn limit, so we have increased the agreement to $2.5bn. sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/… @HypeStrat $PURR

Men will deride astrology as nonsense and yet confidently predict the direction of bond yields

great to talk with @questCNN talking about Hyperliquid

I ran into @zGuz in WY at the @SALTConference - we agreed within 2 minutes to do this interview - no planning, no scripts, no shared questions in advance - the best way to do it! @HyperliquidX @HypeStrat $PURR

About to start the @HypeStrat earnings call for the year ended June 30, 2026 hypestrat-earnings-fy-2026.o…

Amen

Please say hello if you are there

We need to move past the point of "using AI" being seen as some sort of negative. If @standuquesne used a research assistant or a financial analyst to help him write this no one would think twice. P.S. AI caught a typo in this post before I hit send. I could've had someone on payroll review it first. Went with the $200/month agent instead.

Where will the next billion dollars of HYPE demand come from? ETFs. Treasury vehicles. Institutional balance sheets. We're putting the ones with key insights in these on one stage. Moderator: Ryan Watkins (@RyanWatkins_ ) - Co-founder, @SyncracyCapital Panelists: David Schamis (@dschamis) - CEO, @HypeStrat Duncan Moir (@Duncanmoir) - President, @21shares Jason Urban - Head of Digital Assets, @galaxyhq RSVP here: luma.com/mmrfj0pz

When the US and Israel struck Iran on a Saturday, every major oil market was closed. But on a crypto venue run by about a dozen people, traders, mostly non oil traders, spent the weekend putting a number on the war. By Monday, they'd already priced it. From commodity desks to investment bankers, more people are checking a venue most of Wall Street couldn't name a year ago. The name is @tradexyz - the largest HIP-3 market operator on @HyperliquidX - a platform president Trump said regulators are working to bring to the US. Glad to help with this one w @RyanJamesWeeks @spepechen - along with many other colleagues! bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Jeff Yan: “I’m not very materialistic. For me it’s about doing something interesting and valuable to the world.” Look at this clip and draw a parallel with every other founder in this space. The difference is colossal. Thanks to Jeff we got: • The largest airdrop in history, now valued at >$24B
• The antidote to FTX
• The best trading venue with the most liquid markets
• Finally a great asset to invest in – $HYPE
• A buyback system that repurchases its own token at 99%
• The best community I’ve ever seen
• An incredible ecosystem whose time is still inevitably coming All of this comes from the life paradigm of one person who decided to make the world better by erasing every boundary between people and finance. We simply cannot ignore what Hyperliquid is building. Its value is expressed in $HYPE. We are still extremely early.

I was on the stage at the @SALTConference during Trump's presser - when I get off I check my phone and think "wow that panel really landed" Too funny @HyperliquidX @HypeStrat $PURR

Good to see @cz_binance on team @HyperliquidX

I love this point. In 1997 when @amazon IPO'd short sighted people (myself included) said things like "even a 100% market share in book sales wouldn't justify this valuation". The mistake wasn't the math. It was assuming books were the business. @HyperliquidX @HypeStrat $PURR

Smart money @HyperliquidX @HypeStrat $PURR

Smart money found this early. A wallet cluster reportedly linked to @jump_ is ~18.5% of all volume on @tradexyz. Two things follow. The venue is good enough for a top-tier HFT firm to route real size through — and one participant at 18.5% means the field is wide open. Jump are as sharp as anyone in this business. They are not the only sharp people in it. @citsecurities, @JaneStreetGroup, @OptiverGlobal, IMC, @WeAreHRT, DRW, XTX — 24/7 markets in the S&P, gold and crude, settled onchain, no expiry, no roll, no close. The spreads are there to be competed for. @HyperliquidX @HypeStrat $PURR
