The comparison becomes stark when juxtaposed with past projects like SOL-based Pumpfun, which profited heavily from dumping tokens post-vesting. Hyperliquid, however, reinvests its revenue to grow the ecosystem.
Over the past six months:
Hyperliquid has achieved 1/3 of FTX's average daily volume, buying back 20% of its supply in a fraction of the time it took FTX.
100% of fees benefit the ecosystem, reinforcing the growth loop.

Hyperliquid redefines the FDV narrative by aligning incentives toward long-term growth rather than short-term investor profit. Its revenue-driven, ecosystem-first approach ensures sustainability and fosters organic adoption, making $HYPE a standout in crypto infrastructure.
The team forgoes exchange revenue (already exceeding $100M) and holds only 25% of the token float, reducing immediate sell pressure.
With ~$10B daily trading volume, Hyperliquid generates ~$10M every 3-4 days from fees, ensuring operational sustainability without needing token sales.
Circular Supply & Community Incentives
30% Circulating Supply: Immediate market liquidity without over-saturating the supply.
40% Reserved for Community: Instead of traditional vesting for seed investors, Hyperliquid allocates tokens to power users and builders of the Layer 1 ecosystem.
Positive Flywheel Effect: This model directly incentivizes ecosystem growth, driving higher user activity, increased volume, and subsequent L1 token buybacks. This creates a multi-year distribution plan akin to its TGE strategy from 2023-24. #Hyperliquid
