According to data from Trader T (@thepfund), Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a net inflow of $2.69 million yesterday, ending a 13-day streak of net outflows (totaling approximately $4.37 billion).

Meanwhile, ARK’s $ARKB experienced an outflow of $20.72 million, Bitwise’s $BITB an outflow of $15.57 million, and Invesco’s $BTCO an outflow of $12.65 million; all other products saw zero net fund flows.
According to The Block, Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan noted in his latest weekly report that as the Nasdaq-100 Index has surged 43% year-to-date and AI-related stocks continue attracting capital, the crypto market is undergoing a shift—from “momentum trading” to “contrarian bets.” Investors must adopt a long-term perspective and focus on fundamentals. Hougan also observed that during this crypto winter, capital has not flowed into mainstream safe-haven assets like Bitcoin; instead, it has poured into mid- and small-cap tokens with distinctive narratives—such as Hyperliquid (up 72% month-to-date), Zcash (up 50%), and Stellar (up 44%). Additionally, he emphasized that uncertainty surrounding the Clarity Act—a proposed legislative framework for crypto market structure—remains a key constraint on institutional capital inflows. Galaxy analysts and Polymarket both estimate the bill’s passage probability at roughly 50–55%. A sustainable rally in major crypto assets may only materialize after the legislation is enacted.
According to The Block, Grayscale filed an amendment to its S-1 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Monday for the Hyperliquid Staking ETF (ticker: HYPG), setting its management fee at 0.29%—lower than the already-listed Bitwise BHYP (0% for the first month, then 0.34%) and 21Shares THYP (0.30%). James Seyffart, ETF analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, stated that the fund is expected to officially launch this week. Hyperliquid is a decentralized derivatives exchange supporting on-chain perpetual contract trading; its native token, HYPE, has a market capitalization of approximately $16.1 billion, ranking it as the world’s tenth-largest crypto asset.
Grayscale has submitted an amended S-1 filing for its Hyperliquid Staking ETF, proposing a management fee of 0.29% under the ticker HYPG. This fee is lower than that of competitors Bitwise and 21Shares, which have already launched similar products. Specifically, Bitwise's BHYP has a 0% fee for the first month, followed by 0.34%, while 21Shares' THYP charges 0.30%.Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart said the fund is expected to launch as early as this week. If successful, HYPG will become the third Hyperliquid-related ETF.
According to Hyperinsight monitoring data, the Hyperliquid ETF recorded a single-day net inflow of $20.4 million, with BHYP accounting for $19 million and THYP for $1.4 million. Since its launch, this ETF category has achieved net inflows for 15 consecutive days, totaling $101 million. Institutional allocation demand continues to intensify, potentially driving Hyperliquid’s TVL to a new six-month high. It is reported that 21Shares launched THYP on May 12 (UTC), making it the first to enter the market, while Bitwise launched BHYP on the evening of May 15 (UTC). Following the sequential listing of these two ETFs, overall trading activity in the sector has continued to heat up. Notably, BHYP’s current daily trading volume has expanded approximately 13.6-fold from its debut-day volume of $1.3 million.
a report released by FalconX shows that the crypto derivatives platform Hyperliquid is expanding from perpetual contracts to pre-IPO trading, prediction contracts, and tokenized real-world assets, beginning to compete with traditional exchanges and prediction market operators. The report indicates that Hyperliquid's HIP-3 market allows users to trade stocks, commodities, forex, and pre-IPO contracts 24/7, with traders already using it for pre-IPO speculation on companies such as Cerebras, Anthropic, and SpaceX. The HIP-4 outcome market allows traders to place binary bets on political, economic, and crypto events.In terms of capital inflows, the HYPE spot ETFs launched by 21Shares and Bitwise have attracted a combined $53 million in inflows within just a few trading days. Hyperliquid's USDC partnership with Coinbase and Circle is expected to generate up to $160 million in annual protocol revenue. FalconX warns that CME and ICE have expressed concerns to regulators about potential market manipulation risks on the Hyperliquid market. Nevertheless, Hyperliquid continues to lead the decentralized perpetual contract market in terms of trading volume, revenue, and total value locked. (CoinDesk)
