Bitwise calls HYPE the "most distorted" crypto asset in terms of pricing, believing that investors underestimate its influence and value

The cryptocurrency asset management company Bitwise stated that Hyperliquid's native token HYPE is "one of the most distorted assets in pricing in the current crypto market," despite its price significantly outperforming the market this year. Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan noted in a report on Tuesday: "Hyperliquid is one of the most important crypto projects in years. Its native token HYPE is the best-performing large-cap crypto asset of 2026, having risen 77% year-to-date. But I still believe investors underestimate its influence and value."Hougan believes that part of the pricing distortion of HYPE is due to the market viewing Hyperliquid merely as a perpetual cryptocurrency futures exchange, whereas it should actually be priced as a "global super app." He pointed out that the Hyperliquid platform supports trading of assets beyond mainstream crypto perpetual futures, including stocks and prediction markets, with nearly half of its trading volume currently related to non-crypto assets.Bitwise launched the HYPE exchange-traded fund (ETF) on the New York Stock Exchange last Friday. The previous week, 21Shares also launched a similar HYPE fund, but it only attracted $1.2 million in net inflows on its first day, which is relatively low compared to the debut performances of other altcoin ETFs. Hougan added that Hyperliquid has gradually become the "super app" envisioned by SEC Chairman Paul Atkins—a "platform not regulated by the SEC" that provides investors with exposure to multiple asset classes. However, he also noted that the platform "still needs to mature," is not yet open to U.S. users, and needs to integrate into the U.S. regulatory framework.

President of the German Central Bank: Euro stablecoins will provide Europe with more independence to break free from the influence of dollar stablecoins

According to Cointelegraph, the President of the German Central Bank, Joachim Nagel, stated that stablecoins pegged to the euro would provide Europe with more independence, allowing it to move away from dollar-pegged stablecoins that are set to be approved under the "GENIUS Act."Joachim Nagel, the President of the Deutsche Bundesbank (German Central Bank), supports the launch of a central bank digital currency pegged to the euro as well as payment-type stablecoins denominated in euros. In a preparatory speech at the American Chamber of Commerce's New Year reception in Frankfurt on Monday, Nagel mentioned that EU officials are "working hard" to advance the rollout of retail central bank digital currencies. He believes that euro-denominated stablecoins will also help "make Europe more independent in terms of payment systems and solutions.""It is worth noting that wholesale central bank digital currencies will enable financial institutions to make programmable payments using central bank money," Nagel stated. "I also see the value of euro-denominated stablecoins, as they can allow individuals and businesses to make cross-border payments at a low cost."Nagel's remarks come months after U.S. President Trump signed a bill to establish a regulatory framework for payment-type stablecoins in the country. This legislation could pose a challenge to any potential euro-pegged stablecoins. The law is expected to be fully implemented 18 months after signing or 120 days after relevant regulations are finalized. The German central bank president's comments on stablecoins did not mention the risks he referred to at the Euro50 Group meeting last week.Nagel warned that if the market share of dollar-denominated stablecoins significantly exceeds that of euro-pegged stablecoins, domestic monetary policy "could be severely compromised, not to mention that Europe's sovereignty could be weakened."
