Hyperliquid co-founder iliensinc responded to the abnormal SK Hynix pricing incident on Trade.xyz this morning, stating that Hyperliquid is a permissionless blockchain, and different teams can deploy and operate markets based on its infrastructure. Among them, the xyz:SKHYNIX perpetual contract was deployed and is operated by the XYZ team. The XYZ team is currently investigating the situation and will release updates once a conclusion is reached.Iliensinc also explained that the HIP-3 market deployer is responsible for providing data such as the mark price, oracle, and external perpetual contract price. Taking the pricing mechanism of a BTC perpetual contract as an example, the protocol provides the median of the latest on-chain transaction price, the best bid price, and the best ask price as one of three price components. The other two prices are provided by the deployer, and together these three influence the final mark price.
CME Group, the operator of the largest U.S. derivatives exchange, sued the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and its Chairman Mike Selig last month, opposing the regulator's approval for prediction market platform Kalshi and cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase to launch crypto perpetual contracts. Non-US perpetual contracts achieved a trading volume of $60 trillion last year. CME argues that the CFTC misclassified the relevant products and improperly applied the law, claiming that futures should have an expiration date, whereas perpetual contracts allow traders to establish leveraged positions on the future price of an asset without an expiration limit. CME also contends that the products harm its longer-dated futures business and that the CFTC failed to adequately consider the impact. The dispute between the parties intensified during the early stages of the Iran conflict, when demand rose for 24-hour crude oil perpetual contracts on offshore DeFi exchanges like Hyperliquid, as well as for on-chain prediction market trading related to the crude oil market. CME subsequently applied to accelerate the launch of 24-hour West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures trading but was blocked by the CFTC. Kalshi, after launching its first related product last month, stated that its trading volume exceeded $1 billion in less than a week. The CFTC is currently advancing the U.S. perpetual contracts market through policy statements and case-by-case reviews, rather than through new rulemaking procedures.
last night that Hyperliquid and Multicoin jointly announced their support for the CFTC’s prediction market framework.Regarding this collaboration, Kyle Samani, a critic of Hyperliquid and former co-founder of Multicoin who has since left the firm, stated on X: “If you are building in the Solana ecosystem, you should understand that Multicoin will obstruct everything you do.”
Rajiv Patel-O’Connor posted on X, stating that a new feature called "stars" has been observed on the Hyperliquid testnet. This feature allows deployers to create DEXs authorized by an HIP-3 address whitelist for trading. Currently, the testnet whitelist has a cap of 10,000 addresses. Addresses not on the whitelist can only submit reduce-only orders or fund their accounts.
Odaily GLC Research posted on X, stating that Hyperliquid’s “priority fees” mechanism has achieved great success, having cumulatively generated over $5 million in revenue to date.Based on the 14-day and 30-day average, the annualized buyback scale supported by this revenue has exceeded $30 million, accounting for approximately 7% of HYPE’s total revenue. Considering that “priority fees” are still in a very early stage, it is expected that this figure will continue to grow, with the annualized scale of this revenue projected to reach between $50 million and $100 million by the end of the year.
Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated that Bitcoin's increasing momentum, ETF demand, and institutional adoption may indicate early signs of a new crypto bull run, driven by factors including tokenization, stablecoins, and blockchain-based financial markets. Hougan pointed out that since July 1st, Bitcoin has risen by 9%, while the Nasdaq 100 has fallen by 6%. He noted that market sentiment and ETF flows have improved, but the market has not yet confirmed a bottom. Hougan believes the next crypto cycle will focus on the convergence of blockchain technology and traditional finance, encompassing stablecoins, tokenization, 24/7 trading, instant settlement, and the expansion of institutional DeFi to a trillion-dollar scale. Hougan views Hyperliquid and Robinhood as two paths for on-chain finance. He stated that nearly half of Hyperliquid's trading volume comes from traditional assets such as crude oil, silver, and the S&P 500. Robinhood launched Robinhood Chain on July 1st to support tokenized stocks and DeFi services.
this morning, two addresses suspected to be associated with Paradigm unstaked 2.92 million HYPE (approximately $171 million).Former Ethereum core developer and angel investor Eric Conner commented on this, saying: "Everyone assumes this is a sell-off, but it's more likely that this is for ETF seeding. Custodians require tokens to be liquid, and staked HYPE cannot be used. Back in April, they also unstaked $88 million worth of tokens, and on the same day, Grayscale updated its S-1 filing and switched its custodian to Anchorage."
MoonPay announces a partnership with Discover Network, enabling US Discover credit cardholders to now purchase thousands of supported crypto assets via MoonPay, including BTC, ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, TRX, HYPE, and ZEC. This partnership integrates Discover card payment channels into MoonPay's crypto asset purchase service, providing US users with a new fiat on-ramp method.
, According to the "2026 Q3 Staking Report" released by Bitwise, 2026 Q2 presented a divergent pattern of "rising on-chain activity, declining fee revenue," with the core driving factor being protocols actively reducing block space costs. In terms of core data for each chain, Ethereum's active staked amount hit a record high of 40.2 million ETH (accounting for 33% of total supply), network revenue decreased 51% year-over-year to $64 million, but rebounded quarter-over-quarter when denominated in ETH; Solana Q2 Real Economic Value (REV) dropped to $51 million, significantly shrunk compared to the peak of $812 million in 2025 Q1, but non-voting transaction volume reached 9.8 billion, and on-chain activity remained resilient; Hyperliquid Q2 protocol total revenue was $174.8 million, perpetual contract trading volume reached $652 billion, and the proportion of non-crypto assets (commodities, stock indices, etc.) rose to 32%; Avalanche C-Chain transaction volume increased approximately fourfold year-over-year to 236 million, but network revenue, due to a significant decrease in fees, remained only $330,000; NEAR, due to the collapse of Kai-Ching application activity, Q2 on-chain transaction volume plummeted 75% to 77.7 million, but Intents execution layer generated fees approximately 68 times that of the base chain. In terms of institutional adoption, BlackRock launched Ethereum Staking ETF (ETHB), Coin
Odaily News Bitwise released its "Q3 2026 Staking Report," showing that 40.2 million ETH has now been staked, accounting for 33% of the total ETH supply, a new all-time high. The increase in staking this year has primarily come from institutions, including staking ETFs, corporate treasuries, and other large holders. The report also indicates that the staking rates for the networks covered by Bitwise remain high, with Solana at 68%, Near at 45%, Hyperliquid at 44%, and Avalanche at 41%.Additionally, Ethereum’s throughput increased by 73% year-over-year, while Avalanche’s transaction volume reached four times that of the same period last year. Recently, Coinbase and Circle also staked 500,000 HYPE each on Hyperliquid, signaling that institutional staking is expanding to more emerging PoS networks.
HyperliquidNews posted on X, stating STX is now listed on Hyperliquid with 10x leverage support, deployed by tradeparagon.
Odaily data shows that Solana and Hyperliquid ETF trading volumes together account for nearly 80% of all non-BTC and non-ETH ETF trading volume. The Solana ETF currently has an assets under management (AUM) of $904 million, while Hyperliquid-related funds have accumulated a net inflow of $350 million since their launch two months ago. The combined ETF sizes of both represent approximately 2% of their respective tokens' market capitalizations. (The Block)
HyperliquidNews posted on X platform, stating that to launch a HIP-3 market, a deployer must lock 500,000 hyperliquid:native and purchase a ticker for each created market. As the largest HIP-3 deployer, Trade[XYZ] has purchased 103 tickers and launched 87 markets. The minimum cost of a ticker is 500 hyperliquid:native, currently valued at approximately $31,400. HIP-3 revenue comes from transaction fees generated by each market, with 50% going to the deployer and 50% to the Assistance Fund, which uses the proceeds to buy back and burn hyperliquid:native. To encourage trading activity in HIP-3 markets, Hyperliquid has introduced Growth Mode, reducing transaction fees by 90%; deployers can choose whether to enable it, with few exceptions. Despite the fee reduction, 40 of Trade[XYZ]'s 87 launched markets have generated revenue exceeding 500 hyperliquid:native, meaning they have at least covered the initial ticker cost, accounting for 46% of all launched markets. This data only calculates ticker costs and does not include other operating expenses. As long as trading activity continues, each ticker will continue to generate revenue. Some tickers have generated millions of dollars in fees for Hyperliquid and Trade[XYZ] respectively. For example, GOLD has generated over $4.6 million in fees for each party. GBP is currently the ticker with the lowest profitability, generating $610 in revenue for Trade[XYZ] so far.
According to The Block, Jito Labs has officially launched the self-custody trading platform JTX, targeting professional traders in the Solana ecosystem.

JTX provides professional-grade trading tools such as limit orders, automatic execution, and conditional orders. Users hold their own private keys, settlement is completed on-chain, and there is no custodial risk. Regarding fee distribution, 80% of trading fee revenue will be used by Jito DAO to buy back and burn JTO tokens, with the remaining 20% distributed to referrers.
Solana blockchain infrastructure developer Jito Labs has announced the launch of JTX, a self-custodial on-chain trading platform designed for professional traders, aimed at providing specialized trading tools that offer an experience closer to traditional financial trading within the Solana ecosystem.In its initial phase, JTX supports spot trading, covering Solana ecosystem assets including cbBTC, SOL, HYPE, and various Meme coins, while also supporting tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) such as stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).Jito stated that JTX is designed to address the conflict between self-custody and trading execution efficiency, offering users professional-grade trading features including limit orders, automated execution, and conditional orders. Users always retain control of their private keys, and trade settlements are completed directly on-chain without relying on centralized custodians. (The Block)
Odaily reports, according to Selini Capital's monitoring, it has just requested to unstake 504,000 HYPE, valued at $31.7 million. The address deployed the HIP-3 Dreamcash market. After announcing the closure of this market, Selini is unstaking the HYPE required to deploy and maintain the market, having netted nearly $20 million in profit from this investment.
Hyperliquid will open permissionless prediction market deployment in the subsequent enhancement following the HIP-4 upgrade, allowing anyone to create prediction markets on the platform. This feature will first launch on the testnet, followed by the mainnet; currently, related markets are entirely controlled by validators. Hyperliquid stated that in the future, markets operated by validators should ideally be less than 10 per year, with the remaining markets open to external deployers. Deploying a market requires staking 500,000 HYPE, approximately $30 million; if validators determine that a market is poorly defined or incorrectly settled, the staked assets may be slashed. Deployers can receive up to 50% of the trading fees from that market.

Hyperliquid announced that HIP-4 (Outcome Markets) plans to support permissionless deployment in subsequent network upgrades, with the first phase launching on the testnet followed by expansion to the mainnet. According to the preliminary proposal, deployers are required to stake 500,000 HYPE. If the market definition is unclear, settlement is not performed correctly according to the template, or settlement is not completed within one week after the outcome is generated, validators can vote to slash the stake. Deployers can initially create 100 outcomes, with quotas to be expanded through an auction mechanism thereafter.
Robinhood is betting on the decentralized finance (DeFi) market by building its own blockchain, Robinhood Chain, aiming to bring over 10 million active users into the on-chain ecosystem. However, current trading activity on the network is still primarily driven by meme coin speculation, while the initial vision of tokenizing real-world assets (RWA) has yet to gain traction.Trading volume on Robinhood Chain has seen rapid growth recently. On July 12, the chain’s 24-hour DEX trading volume reached approximately $878 million, briefly surpassing Coinbase’s Base and Ethereum to rank among the top in decentralized trading volume, sparking interest in the crypto community. However, Robinhood Chain is still in its early stages. Data shows:1. On July 13, the chain’s perpetual contract trading volume was only about $5.9 million, while leading on-chain derivatives platform Hyperliquid recorded a trading volume of $8.9 billion during the same period;2. Robinhood Chain’s bridged TVL is reported at around $734 million, but the actual on-chain total value locked (TVL) is approximately $211 million, with some assets remaining in wallets and not entering lending or yield protocols;3. The market capitalization of tokenized RWA assets currently stands at just about $12.66 million.Currently, most of the trading activity on Robinhood Chain comes from meme coins. The CASHCAT token, recently launched on the chain, surged over 2,100% in one week, reaching a market cap of $156 million at one point—12 times the size of the entire RWA market on the chain.Robinhood stated that early on-chain activity is meeting expectations, with developers building out the ecosystem and users actively engaging with the network. The company emphasized that the long-term goal remains to bring real-world assets like stocks and ETFs on-chain, enabling services such as 24/7 trading and on-chain lending.Analysts believe Robinhood Chain’s development trajectory mirrors the early stages of some new public chains: gaining initial traction through speculative trading before proving whether it can convert this into long-term users, a developer ecosystem, and real financial applications. The key going forward will be whether Robinhood can leverage its massive retail user base to transform the short-term meme coin frenzy into a sustainable on-chain financial ecosystem. (CoinDesk)
