Key Highlights
- Hyperliquid recorded more than $80M in net inflows in a single day, as per Artemis data.
- Daily protocol revenue has stayed above $1M throughout 2026 so far.
- HYPE fell nearly 1% in 24 hours, while trading volume jumped close to $300M.
Hyperliquid, a derivatives-focused blockchain built around high-volume perpetual futures trading, recorded over $80 million in net inflows over the past 24 hours, according to data from Artemis, outpacing other major networks on the day.
The influx was recorded on January 7, even as Hyperliquid’s native token, HYPE, slipped modestly in price. The move highlights a clear disconnect between short-term market moves and where capital is actually flowing beneath the surface.
Capital keeps flowing in
Artemis data shows Hyperliquid posted roughly $194.9 million in inflows against $114.5 million in outflows, resulting in a net inflow of about $80.4 million. No other tracked chain came close to matching that daily net figure.
On social media, traders pointed to steady protocol fundamentals. DeFiRemora noted that Hyperliquid returned to generating more than $2 million in daily revenue, a level last seen before the late-December holiday slowdown. So far in 2026, no day has dropped below $1 million in revenue, reinforcing the idea that usage remains sticky despite the broader market chop.
— DeFi Remora 🐺 (@defiremora) January 7, 2026Hyperliquid voltou a imprimir +$2M em receita diária, a última vez que tinha batido esse valor foi em 17/12 nas vésperas de feriados do natal/fim de ano.
Até agora nenhum dia de 2026 com receita diária abaixo de $1M.

Price down, volume up
While capital moved in, HYPE traded lower on the day. The token fell around 0.9% to roughly $26.7 after peaking near $28.3 the previous session. At the same time, 24-hour trading volume rose to about $299M, suggesting active repositioning rather than traders heading for the exits.
That combo, price easing while volume climbs, usually points to quick profit-taking, not capital flight. In Hyperliquid’s case, traders seem less obsessed with fees and more with clean execution and deep liquidity, pushing volume past rivals like Lighter once again.
Why it matters
Hyperliquid’s model remains unusual: fewer users, but much larger trades. That concentration continues to translate into outsized fees and consistent revenue, even as price volatility shakes out weaker hands.
For all the noise around short-term price dips, the $80 million inflow says something louder: serious money is still choosing Hyperliquid. Whatever HYPE does on a 24-hour chart, capital is voting with size, and it’s not leaving.
