The way it handled the $JELLY incident was immature, unethical, and unprofessional, triggering user losses and casting serious doubts over its integrity. Despite presenting itself as an innovative decentralized exchange with a bold vision, Hyperliquid operates more like an offshore CEX with no KYC/AML, enabling illicit flows and bad actors.
The decision to close the $JELLY market and force settlement of positions at a favorable price sets a dangerous precedent. Trust—not capital—is the foundation of any exchange (CEX and DEX alike), and once lost, it’s almost impossible to recover.
Moreover, the platform's product design reveals alarming flaws: mixed vaults that expose users to systemic risk, and unrestricted position sizes that open the door to manipulation. Unless these issues are addressed, more altcoins may be weaponized against Hyperliquid—putting it at risk of becoming the next catastrophic failure in crypto.

My analysis on U.S. CPI release and the outlook for Fed's monetary policy:
1 The U.S. inflation (thru CPI) eases to 4.9% in April, marking the tenth straight decline and was lower than expected. This data is a positive reference for the decision to stop🚫raising interest rates.
2/ Specifically, airfare✈️, hotel accommodation🏨, and new car🚕 prices fell. While the cost of housing, the largest component (1/3) of the U.S. service sector, rose 0.4% last month, the lowest increase in more than a year.
3/ However, while consumer demand has moderated, wage growth is still very strong. The labor market is still overheated, and the Fed needs to see multiple months of declines to be convinced that price pressures are on a sustained downward trajectory.
