Spot HYPE ETFs absorbed 1.04% of Hyperliquid’s market cap in 10 trading days, beating Bitcoin and Ether ETF debuts.
Spot Hyperliquid exchange-traded funds absorbed 1.04% of HYPE’s market capitalization in their first 10 trading days, giving them the strongest crypto ETF debut by one market-cap-adjusted demand metric, according to Kairos Research.
Kairos compared cumulative net flows into new spot crypto ETF issuers against the market capitalization of each underlying asset at launch. By this metric, HYPE ETFs outpaced spot Bitcoin, Ether and Solana ETF debuts, which absorbed 0.59%, 0.41% and 0.31% of their respective market capitalizations.
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said the 21Shares Hyperliquid ETF (THYP) had risen 50% since launching two weeks earlier. Balchunas compared the pace with Roundhill’s DRAM ETF, which he said took five weeks to gain 50%, and BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, which he said took two months.
