HYPE Faces Pressure After Whale Unloads 1.95M Tokens

  • A whale sold 1.95 million HYPE worth roughly $110.46 million across two transactions.
  • Positive exchange netflows could increase selling pressure as HYPE trades near $57.
  • Improving momentum could push HYPE toward $60 if buyers defend the $53 support.

Hyperliquid's HYPE has recovered strongly after buyers defended the $53 support level. The token climbed toward $57 during the latest rebound. HYPE traded around $56.89 at press time, down 0.32% daily. However, whale selling now threatens the recovery. One large holder has sold 1.95 million HYPE across two transactions. Those sales carried a combined value above $110 million. The selling could test buyer confidence as HYPE approaches another major resistance area.
