Hyperliquid’s native token HYPE continues to rally, possibly targeting $100 as its next all-time high, as inflows to its exchange-traded funds highlight investor demand.&nbsp;
Inflows into the HYPE ETFs reached $89 million over the past nine days, which is equivalent to nearly $9.2 million in daily buying pressure.&nbsp;
The combined assets under management (AUM) across Bitwise’s BHYP and 21Shares’s THYP climbed to $89 million within days of launch, giving HYPE one of the fastest ETF accumulation curves among crypto investment products.

Bitwise CEO Hunter Horseley <a href="https://x.com/HHorsley/status/2059288713218429128?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> BHYP alone recorded roughly $12 million in trading volume during its first 90 minutes of trading. The fund’s assets under management reached $40 million just over a week after launch.
HYPE proponent Havoc <a href="https://x.com/Havochl_/status/2059188673522876865?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">added</a> that the upcoming Grayscale GHYP product could contribute another $8 million to $12 million in daily inflows. At different average purchase prices, the projected yearly demand could absorb between 8% and 33% of HYPE’s circulating supply.
After assuming a 30% to 35% outflow similar to what was seen in the spot Bitcoin ETFs, Havoc estimated yearly net demand between $2.9 billion and $3.6 billion. The analyst described the figures as substantial for a crypto asset with a relatively thin floating supply.&nbsp;
Onchain activity also shows growth, with Hyperliquid <a href="https://x.com/reisnertobias/status/2059270397351109019?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">attracting</a> more than $1.1 billion in net inflows over the past month.

<h2 id="hype-open-interest-tracks-breakout">HYPE open interest tracks breakout</h2>
HYPE climbed to a new all-time high of $64.50 on Tuesday, while Bitcoin continued to struggle below the $77,000 resistance level. The token has since consolidated above its previous breakout level near $59.40, keeping HYPE in a price discovery.
If HYPE continues to hold above $59.40, the next Fibonacci extension target sits near $76 at the 1.236 level. Beyond that, the 1.382 Fibonacci extension places the next upside level near $89.50, followed by the 1.618 extension near $101.&nbsp;

Fibonacci extensions are commonly used by traders to estimate potential resistance zones and profit-taking levels once an asset moves beyond its previous all-time high.&nbsp;
Derivatives data continued rising alongside the breakout. Velo data showed aggregated open interest approaching $2 billion as traders added fresh positions during the rally. Aggregated funding rates held near 0.004%, suggesting bullish positioning.&nbsp;

Crypto analyst Byzantine General said Hyperliquid <a href="https://x.com/ByzGeneral/status/2058543418901397581?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reached</a> $8.5 billion in aggregate exchange open interest, making it the third-largest derivatives venue behind Binance and Bybit. The platform’s total open interest market share climbed to 7.2%, marking a new all-time high.
Meanwhile, some traders are monitoring signs of crowding after the sharp vertical move. Crypto trader GonzoXBT <a href="https://x.com/GonzoXBT/status/2059188565192401234?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">said</a> a temporary pullback toward the four-hour 200-period exponential moving average (EMA) deviation area could help reset positioning.&nbsp;
The daily chart also shows an unfilled fair-value gap between $48 and $54 that overlaps with the rising 50-day EMA and could serve as a key liquidity and support zone if the price pulls back.&nbsp;
