Summary

An a16z-linked entity appears to have shifted from accumulating HYPE to selling it, according to blockchain tracking cited by BlockBeats, Ai Yi and Onchain Lens. The newer figures indicate 154,242 HYPE worth about $10.19 million was sold over the past two days, including roughly 76,840-77,402 HYPE worth about $5 million sent to multiple exchanges in the latest tranche. Deposits to centralized exchanges are commonly used to prepare tokens for sale. The reported outflows remain relatively small compared with the entity's earlier accumulation, and HYPE's price was broadly flat over the past week.
