HYPE has reignited bullish sentiment across the crypto market after a sharp 11.91% daily surge pushed the Hyperliquid price above the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) to $39.02.
The rally follows renewed investor optimism fueled by institutional participation and aggressive whale activity. Traders are now watching the $41.76 resistance level, a breakout point that could confirm a full trend reversal.
Having reclaimed the key 61.8% Fibonacci level at $35.84, the Hyperliquid price is showing resilience amid broader market volatility, with volume spikes reflecting rising demand for exposure ahead of upcoming corporate milestones.
The catalyst behind the rally stems from Hyperliquid Strategies Inc.’s recent S-1 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), detailing plans to raise up to $1 billion through a 160 million-share public offering.
The funds are set to support ecosystem expansion and HYPE token accumulation, further bridging decentralized finance (DeFi) with traditional markets.
Analysts see this move as a major step toward institutional legitimacy, with parts of the proceeds earmarked for token buybacks and staking operations.
The merger and $1 billion fundraising are expected to drive a lasting bullish impact on the Hyperliquid price. Confidence is already rising as the token climbs above key resistance levels, signaling growing institutional trust ahead of the planned Nasdaq listing.
A decisive close above $41.76 could confirm a new rally phase, positioning Hyperliquid as a leading bridge between DeFi and traditional finance.
