Hyperliquid down 5.9%: the leverage on HYPE

Hyperliquid lost 5.9 percent on Monday morning, Bitcoin only 0.8 percent over the same period. A look into the exchange's own books explains the gap: Hyperliquid carries $1.66 billion of open leveraged positions on its own token. That makes it the house's third-largest market after Bitcoin and Ethereum, and it is almost three times what trades there in a day.

cryptoticker.io compiled this analysis itself on October 13, 2026, from the exchange's publicly accessible data and from CoinGecko. What follows from it, and what an investor in Germany can check against it, is set out in the sections below.

HYPE falls to $82.61 while Bitcoin loses only 0.8 percent

HYPE trades at $82.61, or 73.95 euros, on October 13, 2026. Over 24 hours that is a loss of 5.9 percent, over seven days one of 11.5 percent. Over 30 days, by contrast, the token is still up 4.5 percent. The daily range ran from $79.52 to $88.00, a spread of 10.7 percent between low and high in a single day.

For comparison, the two largest coins over the same window: Bitcoin stands at $83,401 and is giving up 0.8 percent, Ether at $2,514.63 with a loss of 1.9 percent. The broad market is moving, in other words, but it is not breaking down. HYPE is falling roughly seven times as hard as Bitcoin.
