Just noticed HYPE has been through some serious liquidation action recently. The price was sitting around $69 a few weeks back, and apparently over $90K in long positions got wiped out during that decline. Wild stuff. Short liquidations were minimal by comparison, maybe around $3.6K, which tells you the real pressure was on the bullish side.



What's interesting is how it all went down. Looking at the liquidity data, price didn't just crash randomly—it moved through thick liquidity zones pretty methodically, like someone systematically clearing out overleveraged longs. That's the kind of liquidation cascade you see when leverage clusters get taken out layer by layer.

The market structure has basically reset since then. All those high-leverage positions that were stacked at nearby levels? They're gone now. The remaining leverage clusters are pushed way further out, which means the immediate pressure is eased. Price is now operating in a cleaner structure without all that forced selling hanging over it. HYPE is currently trading around $35.53, so yeah, significant move from those liquidation levels. Fewer liquidation triggers nearby now, which could mean we're in a more stable setup going forward.
