Hyperliquid cuts supply via token burns amid rising whale holdings and $100M potential whale selling test.

Hyperliquid is actively reducing its token supply by purchasing and burning HYPE tokens funded by protocol fees, with recent burns totaling about 10.4k tokens worth $956.8k. This supply reduction coincides with a shift in ownership toward larger wallets, which have increased significantly while smaller holders decline. The token faces a critical demand-supply test as institutional buying, including a $45.8 million purchase by Hyperliquid Strategies, meets over $100 million in potential whale selling. The outcome will depend on whether institutional demand or whale selling dominates the market, impacting HYPE's price and liquidity.

Hyperliquid's token supply dynamics provide context for cryptocurrency market conditions on Pluang as of Sep 28, 2026 12:21 WIB. For readers following crypto broadly, here is Pluang's market snapshot: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies, 10 rose and 39 fell today.
