The post Hyperliquid News: HYPE Tops Treasury Rankings as Shorts Pull Back appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

In the downtrend, HYPE has climbed to 8.2% of circulating supply held by digital asset treasuries, overtaking major crypto assets in just 12 months. At the same time, derivatives data show a sharp reduction in large short positions, signaling a potential shift in market sentiment.

Hyperliquid is rapidly reshaping treasury allocation charts.

According to data shared by CryptoRank, HYPE has moved from near-zero treasury presence to leading all major digital assets in circulating supply held by digital asset treasuries. By February 2026, 8.2% of HYPE’s circulating supply was held in treasury structures, nearly double Bitcoin’s 4.2% and far ahead of BNB’s 0.5%.

While broader markets remain volatile, this metric signals strong ecosystem-level positioning.

From Zero to Treasury Leader

In just one year, HYPE transitioned from minimal strategic allocation to the top spot in treasury concentration. Treasury holdings often represent long-term ecosystem conviction rather than speculative trading flows. That makes this shift notable.

Unlike Bitcoin’s widely distributed supply model, HYPE’s higher treasury share suggests coordinated allocation, potentially tied to ecosystem incentives, liquidity management, or long-term growth planning. The numbers alone show aggressive accumulation relative to peers.

The key question now is whether this represents structural adoption or concentrated positioning during an early growth phase.

Shorts Pull Back as Open Interest Builds

Beyond treasury data, derivatives metrics add another layer. Insights from HyperInsight show that the largest short seller significantly reduced HYPE short exposure by nearly 98,713 contracts, worth roughly $2.94 million.

Total open interest currently sits above $10.4 million, with an average entry price near $30.70. The reported position shows a sizable unrealized profit of over $1.43 million, while the liquidation level is far above current pricing levels. The sharp reduction in short contracts could indicate profit-taking or shifting conviction, potentially easing immediate downside pressure.

Accumulation or Concentration Risk?

HYPE’s rise to the top of treasury accumulation rankings signals strong internal alignment and growing ecosystem strength. At the same time, high treasury concentration and leveraged derivatives activity can amplify volatility in both directions.

For now, HYPE stands at a pivotal moment. Treasury dominance highlights confidence. Short reductions hint at changing sentiment. Whether this momentum evolves into sustained structural growth remains the market’s next big question.

First Multi-Asset Crypto ETP Opens Door to Institutional Adoption

The post First Multi-Asset Crypto ETP Opens Door to Institutional Adoption appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially approved the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund (GDLC) for trading on the stock exchange. The decision comes as the SEC also relaxes ETF listing standards. This approval provides easier access for traditional investors and signals a major regulatory shift, paving the way for institutional capital to flow into the crypto market. Grayscale Races to Launch the First Multi-Asset Crypto ETP According to Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg, the Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund ($GDLC) and the Generic Listing Standards have just been approved for trading.

The fund’s primary goal is to expose investors to the most significant digital assets in the market without requiring them to buy, store, or secure the coins directly. In July, the SEC delayed its decision to convert GDLC from an OTC fund into an exchange-listed ETP on NYSE Arca, citing further review. However, the latest developments raise investors’ hopes that a multi-asset crypto ETP from Grayscale will soon become a reality. Approval under the Generic Listing Standards will help “streamline the process,” opening the door for more crypto ETPs. Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and ADA investors are the most…
