Rise’n’Crypto The $7B airdrop: How Hyperliquid set the standard with HYPE token
It’s been another rough 24 hours for crypto with Bitcoin falling through that $95,000 support and raising questions about where it may stop. Some analysts have flagged as low as $73,000! Part of the downward pressure has been courtesy of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US, which on Jan. 8 saw the second-highest daily outflow since they launched a year ago. Elsewhere, the outgoing CFTC chair discusses crypto in a final message, and the story of how decentralized exchange Hyperliquid created the best and most lucrative airdrop in crypto history.
