Analysis1. Hyperliquid’s Net Income vs. NASDAQ’s 2024 Net IncomeNASDAQ’s 2024 Net Income: The web result from Nasdaq, Inc.’s official report (https://t.co/DNSwBqxx2N) confirms that NASDAQ reported a net income of $1,227 million ($1.227 billion) for 2024, reflecting a 10% growth over the prior year. This aligns closely with the post’s figure of $1.13 billion, with the slight discrepancy possibly due to rounding or an earlier estimate. For precision, I’ll use the official $1.227 billion figure.
Hyperliquid’s Net Income: The post claims Hyperliquid generated over $1.2 billion in net income. However, the provided web results and data do not directly corroborate this exact figure for 2024 or 2025. The Mint Ventures article (https://t.co/AlQlSATEdx) from January 2025 reports Hyperliquid’s HLP (Hyperliquid Pool) with a Profit and Loss (PNL) of $50 million and a Total Value Locked (TVL) of $350 million, which is significantly lower than $1.2 billion. The DL News article (https://t.co/paIAFH9v3U) (https://t.co/paIAFH9v3U) from June 2025 mentions Hyperliquid’s token buyback program reaching $1 billion, but this refers to the cumulative amount spent on HYPE buybacks, not net income. The post’s image and text suggest this $1.2 billion figure is derived from DefiLlama data, but no specific 2024/2025 financial statement from Hyperliquid supports this. Given Hyperliquid’s reported $330 billion trading volume in July 2025 (Cointelegraph), a net income of $1.2 billion could theoretically be plausible if profit margins were exceptionally high (e.g., 0.36% of trading volume), but this lacks independent verification.
Verdict: The NASDAQ net income figure is substantiated, but Hyperliquid’s $1.2 billion net income claim lacks robust evidence. It may be an extrapolation or projection based on trading volume and buyback activity, but without audited financials or a primary source, this part of the claim is questionable.
@CryptoCred I keep roughly 4% of bankroll on CEX for margin trading. Never use more than 2x leverage. This allows me to feed the beast for impulsive moves or when there’s an obvious play. Any meaningful W (~20%) I extract and add to spot bags. Rinse and repeat
@DumbCryptoSlug@blockchaingod69 Nah but do you really need payID? Just buy stables through a good local exchange like Independent Reserve then transfer to Bybit
@OlimpioCrypto Great thread thank you! Will be sure to research these and test out, agree with what you say about actually using the product with airdrop as bi-product. Good day to you!
