decline of over 14% over the past seven days as it dropped to $22, swiftly reclaimed the $25 threshold.<\/p>\n<p>The rebound could accelerate amid an altcoin bounce, allowing for a retest of the <a

A surge in buying pressure shows in the 15% spike in daily trading volume.<\/p>\n<h2>Hyperliquid Labs comments on HYPE insider trading<\/h2>\n<p>The HYPE price fell sharply in recent weeks, with allegations of insider trading surfacing.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Hyperliquid has officially commented on the concerns.<\/p>\n<p>In its update, the team categorically denies any misconduct from its members.<\/p>\n<p>Per a statement shared on X, Hyperliquid Labs has clarified that a wallet accused of shorting HYPE belonged to a former employee who was terminated in the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Hyperliquid Labs <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/HyperliquidX\/status\/2003045600657334570\">emphasised<\/a> its stringent ethical standards. It includes a comprehensive trading policy that prohibits derivatives trading involving HYPE by team members and maintains a zero-tolerance stance on insider trading.<\/p>\n<p>Co-founder of Hyperliquid Illiensic posted a similar update on Discord.<\/p>\n<p>While the platform has dismissed the allegations of insider trading as solely the work of an unaffiliated former employee, the co-founder noted two key facts: Employees and the team cannot trade derivatives on the HYPE token or use insider information to trade. The same cannot be passed to third parties.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/hyperliquid-price-reclaims-25-as-whales-look-to-buy-more-hype\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Crypto News, Altcoin News and Cryptocurrency Comparison ) Hyperliquid price gained to above $25 as buyers piled into the HYPE token.
