Whale Accumulation Picks Up Again for Hyperliquid (HYPE): Will the $70 Support Survive?

Whale Accumulation Picks Up Again for Hyperliquid (HYPE): Will the $70 Support Survive? Altcoin News
  • Hyperliquid (HYPE) price is sitting at $70.
  • The asset’s trading volume is down by 42%.

After being silent for about a week, wallet 0x6436 has returned and is grabbing another large chunk of HYPE tokens. The wallet withdrew 88,350 HYPE, or about $6.41 million, from exchanges in the most recent action, increasing its total accumulation to 1.23 million HYPE, or about $85.34 million.

When the same wallet took 82,089 HYPE, valued at $5.16 million, out of exchanges on June 8, a similar buying pattern was seen. At that time, the data showed that more than 1.14 million HYPE had been withdrawn over a one-week period and transferred to Hyperliquid for staking.

Such trades can tighten the circulating supply and possibly reduce selling pressure by lowering the amount of HYPE available on exchanges. Because persistent demand from large holders can affect market sentiment and bolster confidence in the token’s long-term prognosis, traders and investors keep an eye on whether this pattern continues.

Significantly, Hyperliquid (HYPE) hit its all-time high yesterday, at $76.85, and currently it is trading at $70.99, after a drop of 5.9%. The asset’s daily trading volume has decreased by 42.07% to the $1.15 billion mark. The Coinglass data has reported that the market has seen a 24-hour liquidation of $6.78 million worth of HYPE.

As the current pattern deepens, the Hyperliquid price might slip to the support at $68.53. A potential correction on the downside could drive the price even lower, with the emergence of the death cross. If the asset reverses the momentum bullish, the HYPE price could climb to the resistance at $72.49. Assuming the upside pressure strengthens, the golden cross would unfold and likely send the price higher.
