#WhaleLiquidatesHYPEFor132MProfit – Whale Liquidates HYPE Position for $132 Million Profit After 228% Return



A whale or institutional investor has fully exited a substantial HYPE position, realizing approximately $132 million in profit. According to on-chain analyst Yu Jin's monitoring, the whale redeemed 2.886 million HYPE from staking at the end of July and has now completed the full liquidation. The final 969,000 HYPE tokens, valued at approximately $79.18 million, were transferred to Coinbase Prime and FalconX approximately 20 minutes ago. The whale accumulated and staked the tokens at an average price of approximately $19.80 at the beginning of last year, then liquidated them over the past month at an average price of approximately $64.90. This represents a profit of $132 million, or a 228% return on investment. The trade highlights the significant profit opportunities available in the cryptocurrency markets for well-timed positions, as well as the growing maturity of the HYPE ecosystem and Hyperliquid's broader platform. The whale's exit also demonstrates the substantial liquidity available on platforms like Coinbase Prime and FalconX for large institutional-sized transactions.

With a 228% return secured, this whale’s operation is textbook—but dumping such a large amount into Coinbase Prime could put significant short-term pressure on HYPE.

Built a position at $19.8 last year and exited at $64.9 now, passively pocketing 130 million yuan in a year—institutional money really can sit through the doldrums.
