PANews reported on August 12 that HYPE Engine was officially released as the first autonomous vault prototype, aiming to leverage Hyperliquid's production capabilities and transform them into continuously growing value.
The Hyperliquid Assistance Fund has acquired $1.2 billion worth of $HYPE on the open market and achieved a 140% return, while pledging to use 97% of the protocol's revenue for a permanent and deflationary repurchase program, with an expected annualized scale of over $1.5 billion.
HYPE Engine generates excess returns by deploying on-chain infrastructure and unleashing the productivity of $HYPE, including the NestExchange decentralized exchange, HIP-3 perpetual contract deployment, validator nodes, and on-chain DeFi opportunities. It captures ecosystem growth through smart contracts, forming a continuous capital flow, driving the value of the $MEGA (MEGAHYPE) token, and attracting global capital to participate in on-chain returns in a transparent and efficient manner.
Previous news, analysis: Hyperliquid assistance fund already holds 5.62% of HYPE's circulating supply .



Wormhole’s native token has had a tough time since launch, debuting at $1.66 before dropping significantly despite the general crypto market’s bull cycle. Wormhole, an interoperability protocol facilitating asset transfers between blockchains, announced updated tokenomics to its native Wormhole (W) token, including a token reserve and more yield for stakers. The changes could affect the protocol’s governance, as staked Wormhole tokens allocate voting power to delegates.According to a Wednesday announcement, three main changes are coming to the Wormhole token: a W reserve funded with protocol fees and revenue, a 4% base yield for staking with higher rewards for active ecosystem participants, and a change from bulk unlocks to biweekly unlocks.“The goal of Wormhole Contributors is to significantly expand the asset transfer and messaging volume that Wormhole facilitates over the next 1-2 years,” the protocol said. According to Wormhole, more tokens will be locked as adoption takes place and revenue filters back to the company.Read more
