Whales Pour Millions Into Hyperliquid While Others Cash Out at Highs

Wallet 0x9137 spent $15.1 million in USDC (USDC) to acquire 238,811 HYPE at $63.25, according to Lookonchain data. A newly created wallet separately withdrew 63,780 HYPE worth $4.06 million from Bybit.

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes appears to have reversed his earlier position. Lookonchain reported that a wallet linked to Hayes deposited 115,453 HYPE worth $6.33 million into Bybit at $54.81. The same address later withdrew 85,714 HYPE worth $5.37 million from the exchange at $62.69.
