HYPE price falls 5% despite $1.36B in buybacks: Can it reclaim $85?
HYPE traded near $81.20 after falling almost 5% over 24 hours, even as Hyperliquid’s Assistance Fund had bought more than 48 million tokens for about $1.36 billion. The move left price below the $85 area mentioned in both items and near support around $80.26.
What this rests on
What it means
Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.
In practice, the key change is that the market was still trading below the $85 area after the buying activity had already accumulated more than 48 million tokens. What stayed the same is that the token continued to be quoted near $81.20, so the price reference point did not move back into the higher range mentioned in the items.
Still unknown is whether HYPE will return to the $85 area, because neither item gives a later update beyond the 24-hour move and the listed technical levels. What would settle that is a fresh price update showing whether trading holds above support or pushes into the resistance range.
