Bitwise Updates Hyperliquid ETF Filing With Key Details

• Asset management company Bitwise amended its Hyperliquid ETF filing with the SEC, adding a 0.67% fee and ticker BHYP.
• HYPE price is 4% short of retesting the bottom trendline of a long-coming falling wedge pattern. 
• The 20-day EMA acts as dynamic resistance against the HYPE price in the current correction trend.

HYPE, the native token of decentralized perpetuals exchange Hyperliquid, slipped 4.2% during Monday’s U.S. market hours to hit $27.6. This downtick allowed broader bearish momentum in the crypto market as Bitcoin showed weakness and plunged below $87,000. Despite the intraday sell-off, the market watchers are closely monitoring Hype, as Bitwise just updated its amended S-1 filing for its Hyperliquid ETF, adding the 485(a) details, expense ratio, and ticker BHYP. This move hints at an imminent launch in the near term, potentially bolstering a recovery trend in price.

Hype Price Hold Key Support of Wedge Pattern

In the past three months, the Hyperliquid coin price has witnessed a steep correction from $59.45 to the current trading price of $27.73, registering a nearly 54% loss. Interestingly, the bearish pullback resonated strictly within two converging trendlines, which revealed the formation of a falling wedge pattern in the daily time frame chart. 

The chart setup is commonly spotted between an established uptrend or at the end of a correction trend to bolster uptrend continuation. Currently, the Hype price is hovering above the pattern’s bottom trendline near $27.5. 

Historically, a retest of the bottom trendline has often recuperated the bullish momentum in price to drive a fresh recovery trend. If the pattern repeats, the coin price could rebound roughly 25% to hit the overhead resistance trendline at the $33 mark. 

If buyers want to end the current correction trend, the price must breach the overhead trendline to accelerate bullish momentum, bolstering a recovery for the $40 mark. 

On the contrary, the downsloping exponential moving average (20, 50, 100, and 200), accentuating the broader market sentiment, is bearish. If the coin price breaks below the lower trendline, the sellers would strengthen their grip over this asset for a more aggressive downtrend.
