Grayscale is the world's largest crypto asset manager. It provides access and exposure to the digital currency asset class in the form of a security, without the challenges of buying, storing, and safekeeping digital currencies directly.
Gray Report: On-chain metrics indicate Bitcoin is undervalued, but not as severely as at previous cycle lows
Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, released a research report stating that, based on multiple on-chain valuation metrics, Bitcoin’s current price is below its long-term average, indicating it is undervalued—though not to the same extent as previous cycle lows, such as those following the FTX collapse.
Grayscale to Introduce $115 Million in HYPE Token Seed Funding for Hyperliquid Staking ETF
According to Finance Feeds, Grayscale is in talks with Hyper Holdings Global LP to sell its proposed Hyperliquid ETF shares in exchange for approximately 2 million HYPE tokens—valued at roughly $115 million at current prices—as seed capital ahead of the fund’s listing. Meanwhile, Grayscale has renamed the product the “Grayscale Hyperliquid Staking ETF,” planning to list it on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol HYPG. The addition of staking functionality distinguishes it from spot ETFs that merely track token price performance.
10x Research: The NAV premiums of most Bitcoin treasury companies have significantly contracted and may soon enter a negative-premium era.
10x Research posted an analysis on X, pointing out that as Bitcoin’s volatility continues to decline, the NAV premiums of most Bitcoin treasury companies have significantly contracted—some even turning into substantial discounts—resulting in visible losses for related investors. Historically, Grayscale’s GBTC briefly traded at a 47% discount in December 2022; at that time, investors could effectively buy Bitcoin through the product at an implied price below $10,000. The market had mistakenly viewed traditional finance–packaged crypto asset products as “Bitcoin leveraged tools.” In reality, these structures resemble options more closely: their implied value expands when volatility rises and contracts when volatility falls.
Grayscale: Anthropic Access Suspension Highlights Need for Decentralized AI
Odaily Odaily报道，The U.S. government ordered Anthropic to suspend access to its latest AI model for foreign nationals due to national security concerns, following which Anthropic disabled access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all users. Grayscale Head of Research Zach Pandl noted that this move exposes the risks of centralized control over frontier AI technologies and will drive market demand for decentralized alternatives.Within 12 hours of Anthropic cutting off access, the Bittensor token TAO rose 30%, reaching $283 on Monday, a nearly three-week high. Pandl expects that as investors seek alternatives to centralized AI, demand for decentralized AI platforms like Bittensor will continue to rise. (cointelegraph)
Spot HYPE ETF trading volume approaches $900 million, early demand indicates institutional interest
approximately one month after the launch of the first spot HYPE ETFs, early trading data has been robust, indicating demand from institutional investors for Hyperliquid-related exposure.Currently, three issuers offer HYPE investment products through regulated brokerage channels, including 21Shares' THYP, Bitwise's BHYP, and Grayscale's HYPG. The cumulative trading volume for these three products since their launch has neared $900 million, with net inflows reaching $153 million.However, trading activity is not evenly distributed among the products. BHYP and THYP account for the majority of the volume, while the later-launched HYPG is still in its volume ramping phase.Unlike some tokens that primarily rely on speculative demand, HYPE's value proposition is more directly linked to Hyperliquid's trading activity. Approximately 97% of Hyperliquid's transaction fees flow into the Assistance Fund, creating a linkage between trading volume and token demand through an automatic buyback mechanism.
Grayscale: Strategy’s Bitcoin Sales Amplify Market Volatility, Future Accumulation Capacity May Be Limited
Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale Research, stated that the market experienced a new wave of volatility following Strategy's disclosure on June 1st of selling 32 Bitcoin. Although the sale is negligible compared to its holdings of approximately 840,000 Bitcoin (worth about $55 billion), this rare reduction move still impacted market sentiment.Pandl pointed out that the more noteworthy development is the performance of Strategy’s Variable Rate Preferred Stock STRC (Stretch). The product has a design target price of around $100 and currently offers a dividend yield of 11.5%. When the stock price falls below $100, it indicates that investors are demanding a higher rate of return, which may force the company to increase dividend levels. This would increase future cash flow pressure and potentially compel it to sell more Bitcoin for fundraising, further weighing on BTC prices. Strategy's leveraged Bitcoin reserve model is facing challenges. At current STRC and MSTR share price levels, the company's ability to continue large-scale Bitcoin accumulation may be constrained.However, Pandl noted that in the long term, the migration of Bitcoin holdings from highly leveraged digital asset reserve companies to more diversified corporate balance sheets will help enhance market resilience and improve Bitcoin's long-term value support. He expects Bitcoin to resume its upward trend in the coming months, but its near-term performance may lag behind crypto asset sectors that benefit more directly from regulatory clarity.
Grayscale: Hyperliquid Could Evolve into an On-Chain Financial Infrastructure Giant, Challenging the Traditional Derivatives Market
digital asset management firm Grayscale stated in its latest report that the decentralized trading platform Hyperliquid is rapidly evolving from a crypto perpetual contract exchange into a blockchain-based financial infrastructure platform. In the future, it may even challenge the traditional derivatives trading and exchange systems, growing into a "financial services giant."The report shows that Hyperliquid generated approximately $800 million in revenue in 2025, with a full-year perpetual contract trading volume of about $2.9 trillion and open interest of roughly $7 billion, capturing a significant share of the crypto derivatives market. Grayscale believes the platform is no longer limited to crypto trading. Through the HIP-3 and HIP-4 systems, it is expanding into tokenized stocks, commodities, and prediction markets, gradually building a 24/7 on-chain trading infrastructure.In another report, FalconX also pointed out that Hyperliquid is competing with traditional derivatives exchanges like the CME Group, as well as prediction market platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket, and is making progress in new markets like Pre-IPO.The report also emphasized that regulation remains a key variable. Although Hyperliquid currently restricts access for US users, as the regulatory framework gradually clarifies and institutions like Coinbase, Robinhood, and Kraken explore perpetual contract products, this sector may see broader growth potential in the future.

GreyScale’s Latest Report: Regulatory Clarification May Prioritize Mainstream Blockchains for Institutional Funding Attention
Grayscale’s latest research report states that Grayscale Research Head Zach Pandl believes tokenized assets and decentralized finance (DeFi), among other blockchain applications, may experience growth as the CLARITY Act advances and related guidance from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) becomes increasingly clear. Grayscale identifies Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and Canton Network—currently dominant in on-chain financial activities—as likely to attract institutional capital first. The report notes that Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain lead in areas such as tokenized assets, stablecoins, and DeFi, while Canton Network also holds a significant share in the tokenized assets space.
VanEck and Grayscale Submit BNB ETF Amendments on the Same Day
VanEck filed the fifth amendment to its BNB ETF registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on May 15. Grayscale also submitted the second amendment to the Grayscale BNB ETF prospectus on the same day.Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart stated that the simultaneous submission of amended documents by both institutions indicates they are responding to SEC feedback and may be planning to advance product launches in the near term.James Seyffart also noted that BNB could become the next crypto asset to pass SEC review and potentially be listed in the United States.

Spot HYPE ETF Approaches $900 Million in Cumulative Trading Volume in First Month
According to The Block, approximately one month after the launch of the first spot HYPE ETFs, the cumulative trading volume across three issuers—21Shares (THYP), Bitwise (BHYP), and Grayscale (HYPG)—has approached $900 million, with net inflows reaching $153 million, reflecting strong institutional allocation intent. All three products hold HYPE tokens directly and pass through staking rewards to investors. The current annualized staking reward rate is approximately 2.25%, accrued per minute, distributed daily, and automatically compounded. Currently, about 45% of the stakable supply—approximately 434 million HYPE tokens—is staked.

Grayscale Research Head: Hyperliquid HIP-3 Cumulative Trading Volume Reaches $200 Billion, HYPE Captures Transaction Value Flow
Grayscale Research Head Zach Pandl stated that perpetual contracts, as a core product of the crypto market, have long been limited to crypto assets such as BTC and ETH. However, Hyperliquid is changing this landscape through its HIP-3 upgrade. HIP-3 allows for the permissionless deployment of perpetual contract markets on the Hyperliquid infrastructure, and a S&P 500 perpetual contract product has already been launched on Hyperliquid.Data shows that the HIP-3 market reached a peak open interest of approximately $3.2 billion in June 2026, with a cumulative trading volume of about $200 billion. These markets are not directly operated by Hyperliquid but adopt a "permissionless infrastructure" model: any qualified developer can create derivatives trading markets on its underlying network. This makes Hyperliquid more akin to an open financial infrastructure similar to AWS, with the HYPE token capturing the overall transaction value flow.
