After two years of silence, the whale suddenly appears, dropping 2.64 million USDC on HyperLiquid

A whale that has been dormant for two years recently made a large purchase of 59,976 HYPE on the HyperLiquid platform, with a transaction amount of $1.54 million, and holds $1.09 million USDC along with unfilled buy orders, indicating optimism about HYPE and the market trend. Its actions may reflect a reassessment of the project by the market and are worth monitoring.

Abstract generation in progress

【Blockchain Rhythm】An interesting phenomenon: a long-dormant whale has recently awakened. This major holder had no activity for two years, but suddenly on HyperLiquid platform, they dumped 2.64 million USDC and immediately bought 59,976 HYPE tokens, with a transaction value reaching $1.54 million.

What’s more noteworthy is that this person still holds $1.09 million USDC and has open buy orders that haven’t been filled yet. This clearly isn’t a one-time big buy, but rather a planned and continuous accumulation. The sudden turnaround after two years of silence—what signals does this send? It could be optimism about HYPE’s future performance or some kind of judgment about this market trend.

In terms of transaction scale, single large operations in the million-dollar range can still stir some waves in this market. Especially when this old whale shifts from dormancy to active accumulation, it often reflects a reassessment of certain projects by market participants. Regardless, this is definitely worth paying attention to.

HYPE-5.52%

Haven't moved in two years, and suddenly 2.72 million poured in. Is this guy really optimistic or panicking from being trapped?

Wow, the whale that has been sleeping for two years suddenly becomes so aggressive? Why am I still idling on the chain... A sudden splash of 2.64 million USDC and still holding 1.09 million to continue buying, this guy is clearly not here to play. The awakening of the old whale is always a weather vane; we need to keep an eye on the HYPE. This buying posture, why does it feel like this round is about to rise? Really, the actions of big players never deceive, whether to follow or not is the question... I just want to know when this gentleman entered and why he suddenly became active. A million-level layout can stir up some waves, and us small retail investors can only wait to drink the soup. When whales don't move, they move with a bang; this rhythm feels off.

The old whale is awake, still holding over a million USD to keep buying? This pace feels a bit off. --- Suddenly making a move after sleeping for two years, probably because they know something we don't. --- 2.64 million directly invested, and there are more to come... Are they trying to dominate the HYPE? --- A million-level dump, you must really believe in this to do it. Should we follow along, everyone? --- Whale movements are always the most honest. Not moving for two years, and then making such a big move. --- Still holding over a million USDC without spending it... Is this testing the price? Interesting. --- Old players making a comeback with this move. Is this market really something, or is it just like this?

The whales are waking up, and the plot is starting to get complicated. --- After two years of silence, suddenly smashing 2.64 million. This rhythm... feels a bit familiar. --- Old whale's move this time is hard for me to understand. Is he really optimistic or is there something we don't know? --- Still holding 1.09 million to place orders, this guy is really planning carefully. --- A single order of over a million can really change some things; market intuition is very sharp. --- After two years of silence, suddenly turning around. Just be careful not to get cut. --- If this is a signal of a big player bottoming out, there might be a show later. --- Is this HYPE about to take off, or is it another scythe falling? --- Old whale has moved, retail investors probably can't sit still anymore. --- I've seen this kind of slow strategic layout too many times.

Old Whale moves, the whole market comes alive. This rhythm feels so familiar. This guy hasn't spoken in two years, and as soon as he makes a move, it's 2.64 million, with 1.09 million still not fully invested. Clearly, he's been prepared. Is HYPE genuinely being optimistic about this wave, or is it another pump-and-dump?

When whales wake up, they have to buy the dip. This move is no joke. Really, after two years of silence, suddenly throwing in so much—either they know something or they have a gambler's mentality. 109 million USDC still in hand. This guy clearly still wants to continue accumulating, and thinking about it carefully is terrifying. HyperLiquid's platform can attract old whales back to the market, indicating that this wave is not fake. Wait, could this really be a tactic by some institution? After two years of silence, suddenly appearing—could it be that insider information has been released? Another "whale signal" is being treated as an oracle, retail investors are about to buy in again, haha. If this wave of HYPE drops, consider that I haven't seen this news. Eating in one go with 2.64 million—really brave. If it weren't for whales, I would have been liquidated long ago.
