According to BeInCrypto, Grayscale Head of Research Zach Pandl released a report using the "earnings per token" method to value Hyperliquid (HYPE). The report assumes Hyperliquid's 2027 earnings will be approximately $1 billion (an increase of about 20% compared to 2025), and expects the circulating supply at that time to reach 270 million to 310 million tokens, corresponding to earnings per token of approximately $3.25 to $3.75. Calculated at the current price of approximately $54, the forward P/E ratio is approximately 15 to 18 times, suggesting it still holds a valuation advantage compared to fintech stocks.
this morning, two addresses suspected to be associated with Paradigm unstaked 2.92 million HYPE (approximately $171 million).Former Ethereum core developer and angel investor Eric Conner commented on this, saying: "Everyone assumes this is a sell-off, but it's more likely that this is for ETF seeding. Custodians require tokens to be liquid, and staked HYPE cannot be used. Back in April, they also unstaked $88 million worth of tokens, and on the same day, Grayscale updated its S-1 filing and switched its custodian to Anchorage."
on July 9 that Grayscale released research stating that stock tokenization will undergo three stages of development, with Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Avalanche, and Canton Network most likely to benefit as ownership models evolve. Grayscale noted that third-party wrapped tokens account for over 70% of the tokenized stock market capitalization. In this model, traditional stocks are placed in special purpose vehicles, and investors receive tokens representing claims on the vehicle's equity, rather than direct ownership. Such wrapped assets operate on Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain, and can be traded and integrated into decentralized finance applications. Grayscale identified the pilot program planned by DTCC as the second stage of tokenized stock development, with Canton Network set to be the first blockchain used for the DTCC tokenization pilot. The third stage is issuer-sponsored tokenization, where companies natively issue securities on-chain. Securitize became the first publicly traded company to tokenize its own common stock when it listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Grayscale expects that wrapped tokens, the DTCC equity model, and issuer-sponsored issuance will coexist for the next several years. (Bitcoin.com News).

Financial services firm Morgan Stanley on Thursday filed amended S-1 documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, updating its Ethereum and Solana ETF applications and proposing a 0.14% fee for both products. Currently, the lowest fee among spot Ethereum ETFs in the U.S. is the Grayscale Ethereum Staking Mini ETF at 0.15%; among spot Solana ETFs, the Franklin Solana ETF charges 0.19%. Morgan Stanley's latest filings also indicate that Figment, Galaxy Blockchain Infrastructure, and Coinbase Canada will provide staking services for both ETFs, with each fund charging a 5% staking fee on rewards generated by the products.

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 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.

The current market size of tokenized assets has exceeded $30 billion. (CoinDesk)
