Developer grants and regulatory scrutiny as protocol shifts intensify

Hyperliquid has launched a $10 million grant program to support developers facing the migration from its native stablecoin USDH to USDC, a move designed to subsidize transition costs and sustain ecosystem engagement during a pivotal protocol shift, according to Cryptopolitan. Separately, the HIP-4 protocol for prediction markets achieved a record $24.77 million in open interest, largely due to trading around 2026 FIFA World Cup markets, as reported by Grafa, and Kinetiq’s liquid staking platform surpassed $1.05 billion in total value locked, demonstrating continued DeFi traction, per Livebitcoinnews. However, increased regulatory scrutiny is also in focus, with the Monetary Authority of Singapore recently adding Hyperliquid to its Investor Alert List, Tekedia noted.

Overbought signals persist as bullish momentum faces neutral ADX

The HYPE/USD hourly chart shows price positioned above the MA-20 at $63.37 and MA-50 at $62.78, with the daily MA-200 at $39.48 well below. Immediate technical support is identified at the Ichimoku Kijun level of $63.75. On the momentum side, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is elevated at 71.91, indicating overbought conditions, while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remains in bullish territory. The Average Directional Index (ADX) reflects a neutral trend strength. Stochastic RSI, Commodity Channel Index (CCI), and Bull/Bear Power all signal overbought momentum, and the Awesome Oscillator supports the prevailing uptrend.

Breakout bias grows as consolidation bands tighten

Looking ahead to the next 2–3 trading days, HYPE/USD is likely to remain within a volatility band of $62.54 to $68.59. There is a high probability (77%) of an upward breakout scenario, but a pullback to test immediate support cannot be ruled out (23% probability). The baseline scenario calls for price consolidation between these levels, with any decisive move above resistance opening the way for further gains, while a sustained breakdown below support could trigger an extended correction.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes Hyperliquid is showing short-term technical strength above its moving averages, but overbought indicators and regulatory pressure outweigh upside convictions. He believes recent developer grants and ecosystem growth support the network, yet rising scrutiny could temper further gains. Kharitonov sees consolidation between $62.54 and $68.59 as the most likely scenario, warning that sustained momentum above resistance is uncertain. "Until the regulatory outlook clears, I remain cautious and would not chase the upside at these levels."

Previously it was reported that heightened regulatory scrutiny and bullish technical signals shaped expectations for Hyperliquid’s near-term price action. The latest developments—marked by strong momentum, overbought indicators, and ecosystem expansion—suggest that traders should closely monitor for a decisive breakout above $68.59, as it may determine the sustainability of Hyperliquid’s uptrend in the days ahead.
