Hyperliquid [HYPE] is increasingly gaining momentum, thanks to robust Q2 financials supporting the current bullish trend.
The protocol’s latest financial reports show a sharp improvement in profitability, with net income and adjusted EBITDA recording triple-digit quarterly growth. On top of that, Hyperliquid’s total HYPE holdings have also soared alongside increasing whale activity and trading volumes.
Interestingly, this comes at a crucial moment, and network growth development comes as Hyperliquid rolls out the HIP-1 scaleWei Function, which is aimed at supporting corporate actions for tokenized stocks.
Hyperliquid founder Jeff said HIP-1 will add a deployer-controlled scaleWei function that can atomically distribute tokens in proportion to users’ holdings of a reference token and support token redenominations.
With HYPE also holding above its 20-day EMA and defending a key $50-$55 imbalance zone, could its buyers challenge the psychological $60 level in the near future?
Hyperliquid’s Q2 profitability surges
Hyperliquid’s Q2 financial performance creates an ideal fundamental base for the token’s recent recovery. The protocol’s net income grew by 250% quarter-over-quarter to reach $30.95 million, compared to $8.84 million registered during the previous quarter.
Similarly, the adjusted EBITDA witnessed a remarkable increase to register at $53.65 million compared to $19.51 million reported during the previous quarter.
The figures indicate that the underlying profitability of Hyperliquid is growing, providing yet another fundamental boost to the HYPE token investors other than market momentum.
The gross HYPE holdings have been rising significantly as well. The protocol’s gross HYPE holdings jumped by 87% to reach $132.64 million, highlighting the growing value of its token-related holdings and strengthening the balance sheet.
What are the token’s on-chain metrics saying?
Bullish fundamental factors are also manifesting themselves through on-chain activity. At the moment, whales own about 56% of the HYPE token’s total circulation, indicating that large holders maintain significant exposure to the token.
High whale concentration could amplify the token’s price movements, especially when large holders increase their positions. Most holders and traders are long, adding more weight to the bullish bias. About 75% of the total market exposure is in long positions.
At the same time, the market activity has also improved along with the price action.
HYPE’s trading volume is up 37% to around $264 million, showing that more capital is flowing through the token’s markets.
