It was the company\u2019s second straight quarterly net income record.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company\u2019s HYPE holdings were valued at US$132.6 million (AU$188.29 million) at quarter-end, compared with US$71 million (AU$100.82 million) in March. Its treasury contained 2.04 million HYPE tokens on 30 June, up from 1.94 million three months earlier. Treasury gains climbed to US$54.8 million (AU$77.82 million), versus US$21.5 million (AU$30.53 million) in the first quarter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Related: Tokenised RWAs Now Drive One-Third of Hyperliquid Trading<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-treasury-tokens-find-new-uses\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Treasury Tokens Find New Uses\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hyperion\u2019s stronger results stand apart from a digital asset treasury sector facing weaker conditions as falling crypto prices erode balance-sheet gains, with some companies slowing purchases or selling tokens. Hyperion is using its HYPE treasury in new arrangements supporting activity on Hyperliquid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company agreed to stake 500,000 HYPE with HIP-3 deployer Entropy and commit another 500,000 HYPE to Skew Technologies for planned HIP-4 outcome markets. Those commitments came after Hyperion ended agreements with Native Markets and Felix following the discontinuation of USDH, releasing 800,000 HYPE for other uses. Adjusted gross profit rose 20% to US$1.15 million (AU$1.63 million), while operating expenses excluding stock-based compensation fell 21% to US$2.3 million (AU$3.27 million).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Related: BlackRock Says Bitcoin Sentiment Is Shifting as ETF Investors Keep Buying the Dip<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>DeFi,Hyperliquid#Hyperion #DeFi #Triples #Profits #US31M #Defies #DAT #Sector #Slump1786609930<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hyperion\u2019s record Q2 performance was driven by substantial gains in its HYPE treasury, alongside higher adjusted gross profit and lower operating expenses.
