130,000 HYPE purchase expands the treasury
TokenPost said on October 22, 2026, that Hyperliquid Strategies bought the tokens during the week. The report placed the company's overall HYPE holdings at 38.83 million tokens, with a value of 3.055 billion USD, and said its cash balance fell to 245.3 million USD from 255.3 million USD after the purchase. Hyperliquid Strategies is a named corporate holder of HYPE, so its transaction is distinct from activity by the Hyperliquid protocol itself.
The purchase also differs from a protocol token operation. On October 18, 2026, TokenPost reported that Hyperliquid had repurchased and burned 11,340 HYPE in the prior 24-hour period. The report put cumulative burns at 49.63 million HYPE and cumulative revenue over the preceding 30 days at 69.94 million USD.
35 validators included 27 active nodes
Network structure supplied a second data point on October 21, 2026. CryptoTicker reported that Hyperliquid had 35 validators, of which 27 were active. Validators are network participants that help confirm transactions and maintain the chain.
The same report described HYPE as the token used for computation on HyperEVM, delegated to validators for staking rewards and linked to fee discounts. It also said 48.17 million HYPE were held by the Assistance Fund on October 21, 2026. That fund's token activity is a protocol mechanism, while the 130,000-token purchase was made by Hyperliquid Strategies.
77.13 USD and a 1.35 percent decline
