According to a press release, Tony G Holdings, a company trading under the TONY ticker on the CSE, joined the DeFi space with a massive acquisition. Per the document, the publicly traded company purchased 10,000 HYPE the native token of the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid.

At press time, the 10,000 HYPE are worth over $420,000 and represent the biggest stake by a publicly traded company in this DeFi platform. Launched in late 2024, Hyperliquid has gained a lot of attention within the crypto space due to its bullish price action; HYPE rose from $1 to around $42 in less than a year.

Why The Massive Bet in HYPE? Tony G CEO Answers

As per the press release, Tony G Holdings operates as an investment company. Thus, they specialize in looking for opportunities to generate profits by investing in securities and different sectors with a special focus in cryptocurrency, payment processing businesses, and blockchain.

The acquisition of 10,000 HYPE follows a “long term digital asset strategy” which marks a “significant milestone” for the company. Furthermore, it was revealed that the Canadian company used WonderFi as the trading venue that facilitated the transaction.

Matt Zahab, CEO at Tony G, stated the following regarding their massive HYPE acquisition:

This acquisition reflects our strategic commitment to supporting digital infrastructure that is driving the next wave of innovation. HyperLiquid represents one of the most exciting developments in decentralized trading infrastructure, and we are proud to be one of the first public companies to invest in the HyperLiquid ecosystem.

This is far from the first time that Tony G has made headlines in the crypto space. The company attracted media attention in 2022 when it sold 51% of its stake in News 3.0 the entity operating as cryptonews.com.

The Canadian investment company netted $2 million from this transaction. The totality of the money was to be paid monthly for $166,666. Tony G accepted cryptocurrencies as part this deal at a time when the DeFi sector saw severe losses due to the collapse of the FTX exchange.

Hyperliquid Community Speculates: HYPE ETF On The Horizon?

Since its inception, the Hyperliquid DEX has been heavily focused on favoring its users over institutions and Venture Capitalist firms. Thus, the DeFi platform has gained adoption, not without its critics, in this sector.

Following the Tony G 10,000 HYPE acquisition, and due to the recent developments around the potential launch of a Solana Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), many in this community has begun circulating rumors about the potential launch of a HYPE ETF.

On the recent announcement, a popular community member stated the following:

Public companies are now adding HYPE to their balance sheets. A company with the ticker TONY is up 63% after buying 10,387.685 HYPE for $438,828.46 (cost basis of $42.24).

It feels inevitable that a Microstrategy for HYPE will show up at some point (…).

Robinhood Chain flips Hyperliquid – 2 metrics show speculative interest

Robinhood Chain, a new Ethereum Layer 2, has rapidly become a major hub for speculative trading, surpassing Hyperliquid and BNB Chain in daily DEX volume. Its volume skyrocketed from under $10 million to a record $600 million, driven largely by viral memecoins like CashCat and a public bet by Robinhood's CEO. This surge has positioned it as the fourth-largest chain for such activity. However, the memecoin frenzy has reignited a broader debate about the value of L2s to Ethereum. Critics, including Bankless's David Hoffman, argue L2s operate as largely independent chains that do not economically benefit ETH. Uniswap CEO Hayden Adams countered that ETH-denominated trading pairs could increase ETH burns. The debate centers on whether L2 growth, while scaling Ethereum, ultimately undermines ETH's value by reducing transaction fees burned on the mainnet.

Pantera Capital: As Perpetual Contracts Move Towards the Financial Center, Hyperliquid Aims to Be All-Encompassing

Perpetual futures ("perps"), once a crypto-native phenomenon, are becoming a dominant global financial instrument, evolving into a fundamental market structure shift that traditional finance can no longer ignore. This article outlines the advantages of perpetual contracts over traditional futures, highlighting their simplicity (no expiry/rollover), easier risk management, and native 24/7 operation. While the concept is not new, digital assets provided the ideal environment for its explosive growth. Initially dominated by centralized exchanges (CEX), perps have recently migrated significantly to decentralized exchanges (DEX), with Hyperliquid emerging as the leading DEX for perps, capturing ~40% of the on-chain volume. Hyperliquid, built on its own purpose-built L1 blockchain, has successfully expanded beyond crypto into traditional assets like stocks, commodities, and indices, driven by its permissionless listing framework (HIP-3) and 24/7 availability. It has become a crucial price discovery venue during off-hours and for pre-IPO companies, attracting attention from traditional hedge funds and major exchanges like ICE, which now views it as serious competition. The investment thesis for Hyperliquid's token, HYPE, rests on its large and growing total addressable market (TAM) across all finance, strong execution, superior user experience, and direct value accrual via aggressive token buybacks using 99% of protocol revenue. Key risks remain, primarily regulatory uncertainty in the U.S., though recent CFTC actions approving certain regulated crypto perp contracts signal a potential shift toward broader acceptance. The core question is no longer if perpetuals matter beyond crypto, but whether blockchain-based infrastructure like Hyperliquid can become the primary venue for pricing, trading, and discovering risk across all financial domains.

Sky Protocol prints record $419mln revenue – Will 2026 keep favoring it?

Sky Protocol reported strong growth amid a struggling broader crypto market in 2026, with its annualized gross revenue run rate reaching a record $419.08 million. The protocol's reserves grew to $82.5 million, and cumulative yield for sUSDS holders surpassed $250 million. sUSDS deposits and USDS supply saw significant year-over-year increases of 85% and 96.9%, respectively. Following the positive report, the native token SKY posted gains, reclaiming key moving averages and trading around $0.0602. The rally was supported by increased capital inflows, with USD inflows surging to $120 million and strengthened demand in both Spot and Futures markets. Technical indicators like the Stochastic Momentum Index suggested improving momentum, potentially opening the door for a move toward $0.064. However, a loss of momentum could see SKY retreat to $0.056. The team also announced plans to enhance ecosystem security and reduce operational costs.

Tiger Research: Zuckerberg Begins Betting on Prediction Markets, While Asian Nations Still View Them as Gambling

This article examines the rise of prediction markets, contrasting their growing institutional acceptance in the West with their restrictive regulation in Asia. It details how prediction markets, which originated from informal political betting and academic experiments like the Iowa Electronic Market, aggregate crowd wisdom into probabilistic prices through binary contracts. Their growth accelerated around 2020, reaching over $14 billion in monthly volume. A key driver is the "skin in the game" principle, where users risk their own capital, leading to high accuracy in predicting events like Fed rate decisions and elections, as demonstrated by platforms like Polymarket. Meta's entry, with Mark Zuckerberg reportedly leading the development of the Arena app, signals the market's maturation. In the U.S., court rulings have distinguished prediction markets from gambling, facilitating entry by traditional financial institutions. However, most Asian jurisdictions still classify them as gambling, focusing on social control rather than financial innovation. The article argues this stance creates three problems for Asia: 1) regulatory arbitrage pushes users to riskier offshore platforms, 2) loss of sovereign information infrastructure as valuable social sentiment data accumulates abroad, and 3) abandonment of user protection. It concludes that Asia needs a policy shift from prohibition to constructive regulation, integrating these markets into the formal system to harness their data as a national asset, as initiatives like Limitless Research are beginning to do.

JPMorgan backs crypto bill as Donald Trump vows to ‘not sign other bills’ – What now?

The House-passed Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 faces an uncertain future despite gaining significant backing from JPMorgan, a major shift for the traditionally crypto-skeptical bank. According to BitGo CEO Mike Belshe, this support is crucial as regulatory uncertainty has been the largest obstacle to institutional adoption. Should the bill pass, it could simplify market entry for institutional investors, potentially leading to wider cryptocurrency uptake. However, approval odds on Polymarket have dropped to 45%. Supporters, including Rep. French Hill and former CFTC Chairman Michael Selig, are pushing for a Senate vote before the August recess to force a compromise. Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin also supports the legislation. Yet, Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren criticizes the current draft as enabling sanctions evasion. A further complication is former President Donald Trump's vow not to sign other bills until the SAVE America Act is passed, pushing the CLARITY Act's next deadline to August 7th.
