The post Hyperliquid Files S-1 Registration to Raise $1 Billion to Buy Hype Token appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Hyperliquid Strategies Inc., a rapidly growing crypto-treasury and DeFi management firm, has filed an S-1 registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to raise $1 billion through a public equity offering.
The company plans to use the funds to purchase HYPE tokens and boost liquidity across its trading platforms.
Hyperliquid Files $1 Billion Share Offering
According to SEC filings, Chardan Capital Markets LLC will act as the underwriter and distribution agent, allowing Hyperliquid to issue up to 160 million shares of common stock via a committed equity aiming to raise $1 billion.
Rather than raising all funds at once, the company can sell shares gradually depending on market conditions, giving it the flexibility to raise capital as needed over the next two years.
This “shelf registration” approach allows Hyperliquid to strategically time its fundraising while maintaining investor confidence and avoiding unnecessary dilution.
Scaling Its Crypto Treasury Operations
Hyperliquid has earned recognition in 2025 for its well-managed digital reserves, holding a diverse portfolio that includes Bitcoin, Ethereum, and HYPE tokens.
The S-1 filing also outlines its plan to scale operations into liquidity provisioning, DeFi lending, and perpetual futures trading across major decentralized platforms.
TokenMetrics described the move as “a bridge between Wall Street’s fundraising model and Web3’s yield opportunities,” highlighting Hyperliquid’s role in merging traditional finance with decentralized innovation.
How the $1 Billion Will Be Used
Hyperliquid’s $1 billion capital plan isn’t just about growth; it’s about building stability and scale.
In the SEC filing company said the funds will be used to boost liquidity across trading platforms, expand infrastructure, and potentially buy HYPE tokens for strategic reserves.
If approved, it would be one of the largest offerings by a DeFi-native firm, setting a new benchmark for token-backed companies entering traditional markets.
Following the announcement, HYPE token jumped nearly 7%, now trading around $37.52.
