HOLD at these levels feels right. HYPE held the mid-70s through the last pullback and the deployment plan actually makes sense instead of the usual all-in-at-the-top nonsense. still not sure about laddering past 85 though, that is where it got rejected twice.
@Viggo agreed on the 85 zone but i think the drawdown from 97 already priced that rejection in. my concern is different – if BTC chops sideways for another month, HYPE beta just bleeds. holding anyway, the fee revenue story is too good.
the bleed scenario is real but the fee revenue is what buys patience here. if hype keeps eating its own fees while btc chops sideways, i will happily sit and collect. worst case we drift back to the mid 70s support
30k deployment across tranches is the only sane way to do this. went through something similar with SOL in 2023 and the disciplined version always beat the yolo version. thanks for actually showing the numbers.
one thing nobody mentions: HOLD verdicts on alts are basically a coin flip dressed up as analysis. that said this one is better reasoned than most. cautiously long from 71 here.
Agreed on the tranches. I did a 10k one-shot on an alt back in 2024 and watched most of it evaporate in a week. Ladders only from now on, the boredom is worth it.
laddering past 85 is where i tap out too, two rejections up there is a pattern not a fluke. but 78 against a 97 high while fee revenue keeps climbing, HOLD feels about right
