On June 30th, Hyperliquid Strategies (PURR), HYPE's treasury company, was officially included in the Russell 3000 and Russell 2000 indexes. Earlier, PURR had already been added to the S&P Global BMI Index. Following the listing of HYPE-related ETFs, this milestone achievement is also seen as further evidence of Wall Street investment institutions laying out positions in HYPE tokens and the Hyperliquid ecosystem.

Recently, with the disclosure of the latest 13F filings, more information about investment institutions either buying or increasing their stakes in PURR for the first time has emerged. Odaily Planet Daily uses this as a clue to explore the representative institutions in the industry that are indirectly increasing their HYPE exposure. (Note: The total value of stock holdings below is calculated based on PURR's stock price as of June 30th.)

Those Wall Street Institutions and Family Offices Actively Buying: Druckenmiller Family Office, Renaissance Fund Prominently Listed

Let's start with the hedge funds and family offices that actively bought or increased their stakes in PURR.

Druckenmiller Family Office Duquesne: Holds $23 Million Worth of PURR Stock

The Q2 2026 13F filing submitted to the SEC by the Druckenmiller Family Office, Duquesne, shows that as of June 30th, Duquesne disclosed for the first time holding $23 million worth of shares in HYPE's treasury company, Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. (Nasdaq code: PURR). The institution currently manages approximately $5.2 billion in assets.

The founder of this institution is Stanley Druckenmiller, one of Wall Street's most renowned macro investors, who created a record of 30 consecutive years without losses. He came from George Soros's Quantum Fund, where he served as chief trader, shining brightly during the classic "Soros broke the Bank of England" trade in 1992.

Furthermore, the current Federal Reserve Chair, Wallis, previously worked at the Duquesne Family Office. Before his appointment, his main assets exceeded $100 million, including two investments related to the Duquesne Family Office exceeding $50 million each, possibly related to his consulting work for the family office.

Renaissance Technologies: Holds $18.7 Million Worth of PURR Stock

This institution was founded by the late mathematician Jim Simons and is now led by Peter Brown, managing over $96 billion in assets. Its flagship Medallion fund is one of the most successful hedge funds in history. According to the latest 13F filing, the institution increased its stake in PURR by approximately 2.4 million shares, worth about $18.7 million.

As one of the world's most renowned quantitative hedge funds, Renaissance Technologies' quantitative algorithms and investment models have long been admired by countless market investors. Building a position in PURR indicates that the stock meets the screening standards of its algorithmic factor models and pricing efficiency.

Slate Path Capital: Holds $21 Million Worth of PURR Stock

This institution was founded by David Greenspan, a former partner and managing director at the well-known "Tiger Cub" hedge fund Blue Ridge Capital. It is a typical fundamentally-driven "Tiger Cub" fund, focusing on global stocks and macro structural opportunities. It currently manages approximately $12 billion in assets.

According to the latest 13F filing, the institution holds approximately 2.7 million shares of PURR, worth about $21.4 million.

Discovery Capital Management: Holds $10.3 Million Worth of PURR Stock

This institution was founded by Robert Citrone, also a Tiger Fund alumnus, who officially established Discovery in 1999. It currently manages approximately $3.5 billion in assets. It is known for its focus on emerging markets, foreign exchange, fixed income, and global macro hedge trading.

Its investment style is "sharp and aggressive," adept at finding excess returns in high-volatility assets. Currently, the institution holds approximately 1.3 million shares of PURR, worth about $10.3 million.

Balyasny Asset Management: Holds $3 Million Worth of PURR Stock

This asset management firm was co-founded by Dmitry Balyasny, Scott Schroeder, and Taylor O'Malley. It has approximately 2,700 employees and 24 offices globally, making it one of the world's top multi-strategy hedge funds. As of August 2026, the firm manages approximately $38 billion in assets.

Latest data shows the firm holds approximately 386,000 shares of PURR, worth about $3 million.

Wealth High Governance Capital: Holds Approximately $17.1 Million Worth of PURR Stock

This institution is an independent wealth management and asset management firm based in São Paulo, Brazil. It is not a traditional large bank-affiliated asset manager but rather a boutique asset management platform built by a group of former senior executives from the Brazilian private bank Credit Suisse around 2020. The main member driving global asset investment is the founding partner and CIO Andrew Reider, who previously worked at the Moreira Salles family office and Verde Asset Management. Currently, the institution's total investment scale is approximately $940 million; its US 13F-disclosed stock portfolio is valued at approximately $640 million.

Latest data shows that approximately 1.82% of its total portfolio consists of PURR stock, valued at approximately $17.1 million.

Apart from the above institutions, others that actively bought PURR stock include Tudor Investment Corporation, Point72, D.E. Shaw, etc. However, due to their relatively small holdings, they will not be detailed one by one here.

Passively Holding Giant Funds: Vanguard Group and Nuveen

As mentioned earlier, besides actively buying hedge funds and other institutions, benefiting from PURR's inclusion in the Russell indexes, Vanguard Group and TIAA's asset management platform Nuveen passively increased their holdings of PURR stock.

Among them, the global asset management giant Vanguard Group, with over $10 trillion in assets under management, increased its PURR holdings by approximately 843,000 shares in Q2, worth about $6.6 million; TIAA's asset management platform Nuveen, which currently manages approximately $1.4 trillion in assets and traces its origins back to 1898, increased its PURR holdings by approximately 1.07 million shares in Q2, worth about $8.4 million.

According to Marketbeat data, total institutional buying of PURR in Q2 2026 was approximately $142 million.

Other notable institutions recently disclosed to hold PURR stock include Paradigm, Bank of America, etc., with holding values typically ranging from a few hundred thousand to a few million dollars.

Of course, the disclosure date for 13F filings is June 30th, and the PURR holdings of major investment institutions may have changed to varying degrees by now. However, looking at the overall trend, PURR's institutional investors have gradually transitioned from early crypto arbitrage firms to quantitative funds, hedge funds, and traditional Wall Street financial institutions. Institutions like BlackRock, Jane Street, Geode, and Invesco have also bought in passively through index funds. In other words, HYPE token investment exposure and the Hyperliquid ecosystem have attracted increasing attention, trial investments, and even position allocations from the traditional finance industry. Even the state of Ohio in the US has indirectly achieved this by holding PURR stock. On the path to finding the "next generation of global financial infrastructure," traditional financial institutions will never sit idly by.

However, while the prospects are bright, the road is winding. Before the future arrives where Hyperliquid welcomes more global capital liquidity, the price performance of the HYPE token and the continuous development of the Hyperliquid ecosystem still have a long way to go.

Recently, Hyperliquid's "AQAv2 Revenue Sharing Mechanism," scheduled to launch on August 26th, is expected to contribute $200 million annually for HYPE buybacks. This mechanism has also received support from Circle and Coinbase. Stimulated by this positive development and the ongoing construction of the Hyperliquid HIP-3 and HIP-4 markets, the HYPE token price is expected to usher in a new round of rebound.

ETH was once viewed as the "global financial asset taken over by Wall Street institutions," and now, this expectation falls on HYPE. As for whether it can shoulder this expectation, perhaps we will find out in Q4 this year.

Bitcoin Hits Six-Year Low Against Stocks. What This Means

Bitcoin has updated a six-year negative record relative to stocks, according to analytics platform Glassnode. Over the last three months, Bitcoin ($BTC) has outperformed the S&P 500 index on only about one-third of trading days, marking its lowest success rate (37.8%) in six years. This contrasts with 2023-early 2024 when it outperformed 50-60% of the time. For the year through August 18, Bitcoin has fallen nearly 27%, while the S&P 500 and NASDAQ have risen 14% and 19%, respectively, and gold gained almost 2%. This underperformance level is comparable to early 2022, just before the start of a prolonged crypto bear market. While the 2026 downturn hasn't seen an event like the FTX collapse, experts note it is one of the toughest periods, with multiple exchanges closing and miners shifting to AI services. Longer-term, from 2021 onwards, Bitcoin's gain of about 120% is closer to traditional assets like gold and the NASDAQ (both up over 130%) and the S&P 500 (up ~105%). Analysts note Bitcoin's historical excess returns are diminishing, though it still shows strong growth rates overall. The current cycle since 2024 is seen as positive for institutional adoption due to Bitcoin ETF approvals and new US regulatory approaches.

Miners' Sales and Expensive Oil: Experts Name the Causes of Crypto Market Stagnation

"Sales of Miners and Expensive Oil: Experts Name Reasons for Crypto Market Stagnation" The crypto market currently lacks sufficient internal drivers for growth, and escalating tensions around the Strait of Hormuz could further worsen prospects for crypto assets, according to analysts at Wintermute. Key pressures include a significant $390 million net outflow from US spot Bitcoin ETFs from August 10-14, suggesting recent demand was speculative. While some altcoin ETFs saw inflows, Bitcoin's inability to rally on positive news indicates sellers have returned. Another factor is selling pressure from miners, exemplified by Riot Platforms selling 4,300 BTC last quarter while its mining costs exceeded Bitcoin's market price. With a record hash rate, many miners face unprofitable conditions, potentially forcing further sell-offs from their reserves. The primary external risk is macroeconomics, particularly rising energy prices. Brent crude surged nearly 8% due to the Strait of Hormuz situation, threatening to boost US inflation and potentially delay Federal Reserve rate cuts. Wintermute maintains a neutral stance, noting market positions are moderate, but requires stabilization in ETF flows or sustained capital return for a more positive outlook. Upcoming Fed minutes, PMI data, and the Jackson Hole symposium are key events, while the Strait of Hormuz remains a major external risk.

Why Was the SEC's Major Cryptocurrency Meeting Canceled? Influential Figures Emerge from Behind the Scenes! Here Are the Details

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) abruptly canceled a key Friday meeting that was set to begin formal rulemaking for a new framework called "Crypto Asset Securities." Officially citing "unexpected scheduling issues," reports now suggest Wall Street pressure played a crucial role. Sources indicate the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) strongly opposed the SEC creating a structure that would grant crypto companies broad exemptions from existing securities rules. SIFMA reportedly questioned the SEC's legal authority for such a framework and hinted at potential legal action, influencing the decision to delay. This development follows the U.S. Senate's postponement of the CLARITY Act until September. Experts note the situation highlights the ongoing, significant debate over which institution—the SEC or Congress—will define U.S. crypto regulation. It remains unclear when the SEC will reschedule the meeting or if the "Crypto Asset Securities" rulemaking process will continue.

What is CRMON

Salesforce Tokenized Stock (Ondo): Revolutionising Traditional Equity Access Through Blockchain Innovation The emergence of Salesforce Tokenized Stock (CRMON) marks a pivotal advancement in integrating traditional financial markets with blockchain technology. This innovative approach offers investors unprecedented access to equity exposure through tokenisation. Developed by Ondo Finance, CRMON provides tokenholders with economic exposure equivalent to holding Salesforce stock (CRM) while automatically reinvesting dividends. This effectively bridges the gap between conventional equity markets and decentralised finance (DeFi). Introduction and Comprehensive Overview of Salesforce Tokenized Stock In recent years, the financial landscape has dramatically transformed due to blockchain technology, fundamentally altering how investors access and interact with traditional assets. The development of Salesforce Tokenized Stock (CRMON) is a prime example of this evolution, representing a sophisticated fusion of conventional equity markets with cutting-edge distributed ledger technology. CRMON is a tokenised version of Salesforce stock, emerging from the innovative work of Ondo Finance, a leading platform in the real-world asset tokenisation sector that positions itself as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralised systems. Designed to provide tokenholders with economic exposure that mirrors the performance of the underlying Salesforce stock, CRMON incorporates automatic dividend reinvestment mechanisms. This eliminates many traditional barriers associated with international equity investment, such as complex brokerage relationships, currency conversion challenges, and restricted trading hours. The tokenisation process reimagines stock ownership as a blockchain-native asset while maintaining its economic equivalence with the underlying security, offering enhanced portability and integration capabilities within decentralised finance ecosystems. CRMON transcends its individual utility as an investment instrument to represent a fundamental shift in how financial markets can operate in an increasingly digital world. By maintaining full backing through U.S.-registered broker-dealers and implementing robust compliance frameworks, CRMON demonstrates that tokenised securities can achieve the regulatory standards necessary for institutional adoption while delivering the technological advantages of blockchain infrastructure. Understanding Tokenized Real-World Assets and CRMON's Strategic Position Tokenised real-world assets signify one of the most significant innovations in modern finance, fundamentally reimagining how traditional securities are represented, traded, and utilised within digital ecosystems. CRMON operates as a tokenised equity instrument correlating directly with Salesforce stock while optimising accessibility and efficiency. This aligns with Ondo Finance's broader mission to democratise access to institutional-grade financial products through innovative tokenisation strategies. The tokenisation process guarantees complete economic equivalence with the underlying Salesforce equity. Each CRMON token represents a proportional claim on Salesforce stock held by qualified custodians, with dividend payments automatically reinvested to maintain continuous exposure to total return performance. This structure simplifies dividend management and ensures that tokenholders receive the full economic benefit of their equity exposure, encompassing both capital appreciation and income generation. Ondo Finance's strategy in tokenising Salesforce stock demonstrates its expertise in creating compliant, institutional-grade products that meet traditional financial markets' stringent requirements. The platform’s focus on merging regulatory compliance with blockchain benefits positions it at the forefront of decentralised finance, captivating both institutional and retail investors seeking blockchain-native solutions. The Technology and Innovation Framework Behind CRMON The technological infrastructure supporting CRMON integrates blockchain technology with traditional financial mechanisms, delivering institutional-grade security and compliance while maintaining the operational advantages of decentralised systems. Built on the Ethereum blockchain, CRMON utilises robust smart contract capabilities to ensure transparent, secure operations. The smart contract architecture incorporates layered security and compliance mechanisms, enabling automated compliance checks and real-time asset backing verification. Integration with oracle services maintains accurate pricing and dividend information, ensuring CRMON reflects the underlying Salesforce stock's accurate performance. This architecture delivers automated dividend reinvestments and other corporate actions, eliminating manual processing requirements and directly enhancing tokenholder benefits. Ondo Finance ensures CRMON's security structure includes daily third-party verification of holdings, independent collateral agents, and a multiple-layer custody system through partnerships with established financial institutions. This framework safeguards tokenholder interests against operational risks while providing robust asset backing. The user interface enhances integration capabilities, allowing seamless interaction between CRMON and various decentralised finance protocols, as well as cryptocurrency exchanges. This interoperability enables users to leverage their tokenised equity across multiple platforms, creating sophisticated investment strategies that marry traditional equity characteristics with blockchain-native innovation. Leadership and Corporate Structure of Ondo Finance The leadership team behind CRMON and Ondo Finance blends expertise from traditional finance and blockchain technology, presenting a robust combination of skills essential for successfully bridging conventional markets with decentralised finance. Nathan Allman, the founder and CEO, emerged from a distinguished financial background before establishing Ondo Finance in 2021. Allman's experience includes notable roles at major financial institutions, including significant contributions to developing cryptocurrency market services. His insights into regulatory compliance were paramount in developing products like CRMON that successfully unify traditional securities with blockchain technology. With a team of professionals boasting substantial experience in both conventional finance and blockchain sectors, Ondo Finance's leadership comprises diverse expertise that covers every aspect of tokenised asset development. Justin Schmidt serves as President and COO, contributing unique operational expertise, while Chris Tyrell brings essential compliance knowledge. Investment Landscape and Funding History The investment landscape surrounding Ondo Finance reflects significant institutional confidence in its mission to tokenise real-world assets. The company has raised substantial funds through various investment rounds, attracting leading venture capital firms and strategic investors that recognise the transformative potential of tokenised securities like CRMON. Notably, Ondo Finance completed a successful Series A funding round in 2022, led by well-known venture capital firms. This funding success validates Ondo Finance's innovative approach to creating compliant, institutional-grade tokenised products. In total, Ondo Finance has successfully secured substantial funding, raising significant capital for product development and market expansion, including a noteworthy token sale that reinforced its governance structure through the establishment of the ONDO token. The diverse composition of investors reflects broad market confidence in Ondo Finance's business model, demonstrating support from both traditional and blockchain-native organisations. Operational Mechanics and Technical Implementation The operational framework supporting CRMON exemplifies sophisticated integration of traditional financial mechanisms with blockchain technology. The technical implementation introduces multiple layers of security, compliance, and operational efficiency to meet institutional standards while enhancing accessibility. The tokenisation process begins by acquiring actual Salesforce stock through U.S.-registered broker-dealers, ensuring each CRMON token maintains direct correlation with the underlying equity performance. Smart contracts automate operational processes, including dividend reinvestment and corporate action processing, facilitating a streamlined user experience. The Minting and redemption processes allow authorised participants to manage CRMON tokens effectively.
