Hyperliquid Price Prediction – HYPE Eyes $47 as Platform Volumes Surge

Highlights:

• Hype rallies and surges past the $35.39 resistance
• Breaching resistance makes a rally to $47.92 possible
• Rising Hyperliquid demand for non-cryptocurrency assets could trigger a rally

Hyperliquid (HYPE) is gaining quite strongly intraday despite the relatively low level of activity across the market. When writing, HYPE was trading at $37.63, up by 8.36%. At the same time, Hyperliquid trading volumes have shot up by 71.24% to stand at $496.1 million. 

The rising volumes at a time when the price is making gains go to show that HYPE demand is on the rise. If the trend continues, HYPE could rally back to its last all-time highs and new highs even as the rest of the market continues consolidating. The rally HYPE is experiencing at the moment is not just random FOMO; it is driven by solid fundamental factors. 

Oil Trading On Hyperliquid Uplifts HYPE Token

One of the key factors driving Hyperliquid’s price action is the expanded product offering. Hyperliquid has, in recent times, built a name for itself as one of the best decentralised exchanges in the market today. The Hyperliquid team has now taken their services a notch higher by offering high-quality non-crypto products. These include stock indices such as the S&P 500, and now even oil. These products have triggered a surge in HYPE trading volumes and, by extension, driven the demand for HYPE. 

One of the products on Hyperliquid that is currently driving significant volumes is oil. Since the Middle East war started, oil volatility has shot up, and investors are moving in to trade it in large amounts. Since Hyperliquid is known for its transparency in liquidations and other aspects of trading, it is taking in a sizeable chunk of oil trading volumes. As the war in the Middle East rages on, oil will continue to be one of the top traded assets. By extension, this could keep trading volumes on Hyperliquid high, and the demand for HYPE tokens surging.

Hyperliquid just processed $1.2B in 24-hour trading volume on a tokenized oil trade.

Analysts Now Making Over $100 Projections for Hyperliquid’s price

Aside from the surging volumes from oil traders, Hyperluid is getting a boost from a positive outlook. Multiple credible analysts and other industry players believe HYPE could be headed to prices above $100 in the foreseeable future.

One of the people who holds such an outlook for HYPE is Arthur Hayes, the founder of Bitmex. In one of his posts, Hayes noted that if the current trend continues, Hyperliquid’s price could rally to $150 by the middle of the year. Such projections at a time when HYPE is outperforming most altcoins could see its value rally to new highs in the short to medium term.

Cryptocurrency Market Sentiment Could Push Price Higher

HYPE also stands to benefit from the overall sentiment in the cryptocurrency market at the moment. Since the Iran war started, the cryptocurrency market has held its value well. This is quite unexpected given that in past geopolitical issues, cryptocurrencies have crashed. The impression it has created is that capital could start flowing back in based on the perception that the bottom is in. In such a case, capital is likely to flow more into altcoins that are already showing strength. HYPE is among the cryptocurrencies showing strength at this point, and could see FOMO drive it to new highs.

Technical Analysis – Hyperliquid Price Holds Above Critical Resistance

After rallying through the $35.39 resistance yesterday, March 11, HYPE is pushing higher today, March 12. This goes to show that bulls are firmly in control and that HYPE is headed higher.

If the current momentum continues, Hyperliquid’s price could rally to $47.92 in the short to medium term. On the other hand, if bulls lose momentum, then a consolidation around $35.39, now support, could follow. Of these two scenarios, a rally to $47.92 seems more likely. That’s because the surge in usage of the Hyperliquid platform has triggered a surge in demand for HYPE.
