Hyperliquid: cumulative HYPE buyback and burn exceeds $1.3 billion

  • Cumulative HYPE buyback and burn exceeded $1.3 billion
  • Buyback is funded from the protocol's trading fees
  • Buyback and burn are different metrics: buyback volume does not equal supply reduction
  • When trading volumes and fees decline, the scale of the buyback decreases
Why it matters: The fee-funded buyback mechanism links exchange activity to HYPE supply, influencing how holders value the token.
