82 million USD locked in HYPE: Are institutions bullish, or are they "controlling the market"?

The multicoin related wallet staked 1.96 million HYPE tokens at once, worth over 80 million dollars.
On the surface, this is a typical positive signal:
Reducing circulation = price support.
But on a deeper level, this is a "signal operation."

The staking action releases three pieces of information: * I am optimistic about the long term
* I will not sell in the short term
* You can follow with confidence

Institutions can lock for a year,
retail investors might become anxious in a week.
So this kind of operation is more like a tool to "stabilize expectations."
In one sentence:
This is not just about locking positions; it’s a psychological game. #Gate广场五月交易分享.
