Hyperliquid Delists JELLY Perps Due to Suspicious Activity
Hyperliquid Delists JELLY Perpetual Futures
Decentralized exchange Hyperliquid announced the delisting of perpetual futures contracts tied to the JELLY token due to "evidence of suspicious market activity." The decision follows the identification of unusual trading patterns associated with these instruments.
Hyper Foundation Reimbursement
The Hyper Foundation, Hyperliquid's ecosystem non-profit, will reimburse most users for any losses incurred as a result of this suspicious activity. Hyperliquid stated on March 26th via X (formerly Twitter) that all users, except those with flagged addresses, will receive automatic compensation in the coming days based on on-chain data. This proactive approach demonstrates a commitment to user protection.
Financial Performance and Recent Events
Despite this incident, Hyperliquid's primary liquidity pool, HLP, reported a positive net income of approximately $700,000 in the past 24 hours. This positive financial metric highlights the resilience of the platform. It's worth noting that on March 14th, Hyperliquid increased margin requirements following a significant Ether liquidation event that resulted in millions of dollars in losses for the liquidity pool.
