HYPE Sees Over $90K in Long Liquidations as Price Stabilizes Near 69,280 Level
-
Notably, liquidation data confirms that most high-leverage long positions on HYPE were already cleared during the recent decline.

However, liquidity heatmaps show price consistently moved through dense leverage zones, indicating structured liquidation rather than sudden volatility.

Meanwhile, remaining leverage clusters now sit farther from the current price, reflecting a reset in derivatives positioning.
The derivatives market for HYPE has undergone a notable structural reset after an extended liquidation phase. According to the recent data on liquidation, the majority of the high leveraged long positions have already been liquidated, redefining positioning throughout the order book.

This is an improvement of the underlying downside price movement, which has been evident in several sessions, and coincides with the increase of liquidation activity in the near vicinity of the existing trading range. This has changed the market structure to portray a materially different leverage distribution than they were previously in the week, which frames the context of the most recent price behavior.
Long Liquidations Reshape Leverage Distribution
According to a chart from Coinglass, HYPE was trading about 69,280 when cumulative long liquidations had an approximate of 90,054. In the meantime, short liquidations remained close to $3,645, which confirms that leverage was reduced focused on longs after price traversed through thick liquidity layers in the period of declining price, which is currently evident.This confirms that higher-risk bullish positions no longer cluster around nearby levels. As this pressure eased, liquidation intensity declined, indicating that forced selling has already occurred rather than continuing to build.

The liquidity heatmap highlights repeated price interaction with dense liquidity bands during the recent decline. Price consistently gravitated toward high-liquidity zones before continuing lower, reflecting mechanical order-flow behavior rather than abrupt volatility. However, liquidity density has reduced near the current level, suggesting fewer immediate liquidation triggers. Volume spikes within the liquidation profile align with prior price compression zones, confirming that leverage unwinding occurred incrementally
Current Price Context After Liquidation Exhaustion
At the marked current price level, liquidation data shows limited remaining long leverage exposure. As of today, HYPE was trading at $29.47 with a 7.9% decline. With HYPE trading near current levels after the liquidation sweep, data shows long leverage largely cleared. Reduced nearby liquidity pressure suggests price is now operating within a reset structure, where movement depends more on fresh positioning than forced unwinds.
