Opinion: HYPE technical analysis indicates a target above $100, breaking through the classic bull flag pattern
BlockBeats News, June 1, Hyperliquid's native token HYPE has risen by over 30% in the past five days, with its price once surpassing $74 and reaching a new all-time high. Analysis points out that HYPE has broken out of the classic Bull Pennant pattern, with an upward target possibly aiming at $105, leaving about 45% upside from the current price.
From a technical perspective, after a rapid surge in late May, HYPE formed a flagpole structure, then consolidated within a triangle range to build momentum, and recently broke out above the upper trendline on high volume. According to Bull Pennant pattern projections, the theoretical target price is around $105.3, which is expected to be reached between June and July.
Derivatives market data also sends bullish signals. Data shows that Hyperliquid's open interest has soared to a record $3.5 billion, up sharply from about $1.4 billion at the beginning of the year. At the same time, the funding rate has remained positive, indicating the market is overall still dominated by bullish sentiment.
Since May 20, cumulative short liquidations on HYPE have reached about $126 million, significantly higher than the $68.85 million long liquidations, showing a clear "short squeeze" effect amid the price rise. If the rally continues, it may further prompt short covering and accelerate price gains.
On the fundamentals side, according to DefiLlama data, Hyperliquid's application revenue in the past 30 days reached $57.9 million, surpassing Ethereum and making it the second largest blockchain by revenue after Solana. Its protocol uses 99% of fee revenue for the "Assistance Fund" to buy back HYPE on the open market, which is regarded as a key mechanism supporting token value.
In addition, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) recently publicly acknowledged the role of perpetual contracts in price discovery and risk management, creating a positive outlook for Hyperliquid, whose core business revolves around perpetual contract trading. Meanwhile, since launching on May 12, the HYPE ETF introduced in the US market has attracted a net inflow of approximately $122 million, indicating growing institutional demand for HYPE exposure.

Updated Version 4 - SpaceX Targets U.S. Wireless Operators Through Spectrum Acquisition
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has approved Starlink Mobile Gen2's application to launch 15,000 satellites. Low-frequency radio waves can expand coverage and enhance signal penetration through walls and tree canopies, improving indoor reception. The share prices of T-Mobile, Verizon, and AT&T each fell by nearly 7% in after-hours trading. On October 8, Reuters reported that SpaceX reached an agreement on Thursday to acquire a nationwide portfolio of low-frequency spectrum, enabling Elon Musk's satellite company to directly challenge giant traditional wireless carriers across the United States from orbit. While Starlink Mobile’s existing global 2 GHz mid-band spectrum offers high bandwidth capacity, the new spectrum will allow signal penetration through obstacles. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Low-frequency bands are favored for their longer transmission ranges and ability to penetrate dense structures like walls and tree cover—addressing a major technical challenge previously faced by satellite-based mobile networks. By combining nationwide low-frequency radio coverage with high-frequency space transmission, SpaceX is positioning Starlink Mobile to entirely bypass traditional cell towers, challenging the wireless oligopoly both in wide-area coverage and indoor signal reliability. This deal also increases competitive pressure on traditional operators, shifting direct-to-device satellite technology from a supplementary feature for remote dead spots to a comprehensive commercial rival to terrestrial cellular networks. The share prices of T-Mobile US, Verizon, and AT&T each dropped nearly 7% in after-hours trading. “Incumbent wireless carriers have been publicly skeptical, arguing that SpaceX’s network quality could not match theirs,” said analysts at William Blair. “We expect SpaceX to launch very attractive bundled packages of Starlink broadband with Starlink Mobile, and the company may include Grok in these bundles.” The deal involves acquiring 100% of a nationwide 800 MHz spectrum portfolio from private equity firm Grain Management, pending regulatory approval from the FCC. Earlier this year, Grain had acquired this spectrum from T-Mobile. Crucially, most existing, unmodified mobile phones already support the 800 MHz band, so consumers will not need to purchase special satellite phones. This week, the FCC also approved Starlink Mobile’s application for its second-generation satellite constellation, authorizing SpaceX to launch 15,000 satellites worldwide optimized for the 2 GHz band. This new satellite array will operate in very low Earth orbit, providing regular smartphones with higher bandwidth and low-latency connections.
