BitMEX Founder Arthur Hayes Sends Over $1,000,000 Worth of GMX Tokens to Centralized Exchanges: On-Chain Data - The Daily Hodl

BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes has reportedly sent more than $1 million worth of the decentralized exchange (DEX) altcoin GMX (GMX) to centralized exchanges.

Pseudonymous on-chain analyst EmberCN tells their 79,700 followers on the social media platform X that Hayes had controlled the largest personal address for GMX holders since 2022.

On Sunday, the BitMEX founder transferred all his 237,000 GMX (worth $9.78 million) to a newly created address. That address subsequently sent 41,000 GMX worth $1.68 million to the centralized crypto exchanges Binance, OKX and Bybit, according to EmberCN.

The analyst also says that the newly created address likely belongs to the algorithmic digital asset trading firm Wintermute.

“This newly created address received gas from Wintermute, so it should belong to Wintermute. [Hayes’] GMX is probably entrusted to Wintermute for sale or OTC (over the counter) [trade].”

Crypto analytics firm Arkham confirms Hayes’s abrupt transfer of GMX tokens.

Hayes held the GMX at an average cost of $45 per token, according to EmberCN. The 225th-ranked crypto asset by market cap is trading at $41.54 at time of writing and is down more than 54% from its all-time high of $91.07, which it set nearly one year ago, according to CoinGecko.

GMX specializes in perpetual futures and aims to provide low swap fees and low-price impact trading, according to the project’s website. The GMX token is used for staking and governance.

Warsh's Debut: Will the FED Chair Who Knows Crypto Best Bring Surprises or Shocks to the Market?

Kevin Warsh, the new Federal Reserve Chairman, prepares for his inaugural press conference amidst a challenging macroeconomic landscape: resurgent inflation, a bond market sell-off, and political pressure from President Trump for rate cuts. Uniquely, Warsh holds indirect investments in over 20 crypto and Web3 entities (e.g., Solana, dYdX), making him the first Fed Chair with disclosed crypto exposure. His stance may combine a hawkish, inflation-focused monetary policy with a crypto-friendly regulatory philosophy that shifts from Powell’s “same risk, same rule” approach toward a framework acknowledging blockchain’s productivity value. Warsh’s leadership could impact crypto markets across three dimensions: a paradigm shift in regulation (potentially accelerating pro-innovation legislation and stable币 rules), a re-pricing of risk premiums based on clearer communication and his view of AI as a structural disinflationary force, and a long-term reallocation of global institutional capital driven by increased legitimacy. Two potential scenarios for the press conference are outlined. A “positive surprise” would involve a dovish-leaning tone on rates coupled with signals of regulatory openness, potentially boosting crypto asset valuations. Conversely, a “negative shock” would see a more hawkish-than-expected stance on inflation and rates, triggering a broad risk-asset selloff that crypto markets would not escape. While ethics rules required Warsh to divest his crypto holdings upon confirmation, his deep understanding of the technology may fundamentally lower policy uncertainty and build a more receptive long-term foundation for digital assets’ integration into the mainstream financial system.

Pricing OpenAI Pre-IPO: A New, Life-or-Death Business on Hyperliquid Lasting Half a Year

Pricing OpenAI Pre-IPO: Hyperliquid's High-Stakes, Six-Month Business Venture The article analyzes the nascent market for pre-IPO perpetual contracts on the Hyperliquid blockchain, exemplified by two contrasting teams: Trade.xyz and Ventuals. Trade.xyz, an anonymous team, successfully built the largest pre-market on Hyperliquid. Its strategy focused on near-term events, like the SpaceX IPO. By listing a SpaceX contract with a known launch date and price, the market had a tangible "anchor" (the eventual Nasdaq opening price) to converge upon, which kept speculation in check. This approach fueled significant growth. In stark contrast, Ventuals, backed by Paradigm, failed despite holding coveted contracts for OpenAI and Anthropic. Its critical flaw was its pricing mechanism for these companies, which have no imminent IPO. Ventuals' oracle price was half-derived from infrequent private market transactions and half from its own contract's moving average. This created a self-reinforcing loop where buying pressure artificially inflated the price, disconnecting it from real supply and demand. The market became illiquid and structurally skewed. Ventuals shut down nine months after launch, reportedly through an acquisition. Its final settlement prices—OpenAI at ~$1,341 and Anthropic at ~$1,618—were thus partially products of its flawed model. Ironically, some company employees and late-stage VCs reportedly used these prices for valuation reference, highlighting the desperate demand for price discovery in opaque private markets. The failure of Ventuals exposes the core challenge of this business: price for illiquid, non-public assets requires a robust, self-correcting market, which is absent without a definitive public listing event. Nevertheless, demand is driving major players like Coinbase and traditional finance (e.g., Citi) to enter the space, aiming to provide 24/7 trading for coveted private company shares. The venture's ultimate viability, however, hinges on solving the fundamental pricing problem Ventuals could not.
