H Token (Humanity Protocol) has recently experienced such extreme volatility that the underlying causes can be traced to a trust crisis triggered by a security vulnerability, massive funds being stolen, and subsequent long-versus-short battles—making the whole process highly extreme.
The entire process is divided into two stages:
💥 First stage: A collapse-style crash (June 8–9)
· Private key leak, hackers “printing unlimited money”: The private keys of foundation members were leaked, causing hackers to not only steal $31 million but also infinitely mint H tokens on the BSC chain and sell them. The attacker cumulatively cashed out about $34 million, and at one point even minted 1 billion tokens in a single transaction, directly draining the on-chain liquidity.
· Price and trust collapse: The token fell **by 90%** from around $0.78** in a short period, hitting a low of **$0.0003**. At the same time, the community’s trust—already fragile due to prior disclosures that “88% of users are bots” and privacy controversies related to users’ fingerprint data—completely collapsed.
📈 Second stage: Violent rebound and a second downturn (late June)
After the crash, the price went through a wild “roller coaster”:
· Short squeeze (forced covering): Due to extremely crowded short positions, a short squeeze was triggered around June 13. The price rebounded more than 36% in just one day, reaching a peak of $0.609, up more than 1100%.
· Sentiment cooling: The rebound was only a “relief rally,” with nearly all of it retraced within 48 hours. Around June 16, over a two-day span, it fell another 73.8%, dropping back to around $0.2.
🧐 The controversies and risks behind it
· Cloud of “self-produced and self-performed” suspicion: Well-known on-chain investigator ZachXBT questioned whether the project team or related market makers used the “hacker” excuse to exit with cash before large unlocks.
· Unlock pressure: On June 25, a large amount of internal tokens were scheduled to be unlocked, and the potential sell-off pressure was an important factor in suppressing the price.
In short, H Token is an extremely high-risk asset. Liquidity-side factors (hacker sell-offs/short squeezes) and news-side factors (team responses/unlock events) dominate. Under such extreme volatility, technical analysis has limited reference value, and the risk of chasing price spikes or cutting losses is extremely high. #感谢关注︱互动︱评论︱转发
