Outperform $HYPE with a beta play?
here is an updated list of options in the hyperliquid ecosystem:
$KNTQ - outperformed, has become the #3 global LST, grew organically the HL way
$NEST - Nest was the strongest outperformers, the metadex or aero of HL
$PURR - Held well as a memecoin, but did not outperform Hype significantly
$HPL - Hyperlend's TVL grew proportionally to the growth of Hype, but $HPL token remained valued the same.
$ALT - Did not perform well, will altcoin meta be revived with new tickers and a strong runner?
$SWAP - Has good volume for DEX on HyperEVM & TVL at 19M
$BUDDY & $JOFF - Strong OG memecoins on Hyperevm
Hyperliquid NFTs - Join for the culture, perks, and perhaps gains
See you in the trenches, or just get a Hype LST and relax.
It's time again to leap head first into the abyss with a very special collection and community. All the traits are pretty wild, but true unyielding madness lives in the "Head and Headwear".
