Arthur Hayes's mouth, a lie: He is shipping while he is milking

Author: Azuma, Odaily Planet Daily

BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes seems to have "loved" Hyperliquild (HYPE).

On May 23, Arthur Hayes posted on X that his goal in this bull market may be "HYPE market value exceeds SOL."

On June 9, while Binance.US posted a popular science book on X, Arthur Hayes posted another article asking CZ Binance to launch HYPE spot plan and said: "Does this mean Binance will launch HYPE spot soon?"

On June 11, Arthur Hayes updated X again, asking the community whether it thinks "Hyperliquid's trading volume in this bull market will surpass Binance?"

In such a high-frequency "bastard" situation, does Arthur Hayes really believe in the rising potential of HYPE? The facts may not be that simple.

On June 12, just one day after Arthur Hayes finished breastfeeding HYPE, Hyperliquid community member @obese.potato.pip found some interesting trends on the chain - Arthur Hayes seems to be selling HYPE.

According to the monitoring of @obese.potato.pip, several HYPEs were transferred from the suspected Arthur Hayes address yesterday, including 73,000 HYPE (about 3 million US dollars) to Flowdesk, 40,000 HYPE (about 1.64 million US dollars) to Wintermute, 53,000 HYPE (about 2.2 million US dollars) to Galaxy, and 55,000 HYPE (about 2.3 million US dollars) to Gate.

Through on-chain data traceability, we have located the following address: 0xc32235231d29831a2cb2a11e3f9c7f38160fc1dd.

Although mainstream browsers such as Etherscan do not mark the address, searching the address through the X platform allows you to see more content associated with Arthur Hayes, so there is reason to suspect that the address belongs to Arthur Hayes.

While bastard, smashing the plate... Although it sounds a bit "shamed", this is not the first time Arthur Hayes has done this.

On December 21 last year, Arthur Hayes posted on X's Ethena (ENA), saying: "If a DeFi protocol has not integrated USDe or sUSDe, it's time to get out."

However, on the same day, Arthur Hayes marked the address unsolicited 9.018 million ENAs, and then transferred 7 million ENAs to Binance (the unit price of ENA was about US$1.21, and the total value of these tokens was about US$8.47 million). The next day, he used the same address to withdraw 7.85 million USDC from Binance, which was completely unconcealed.

Afterwards, Arthur Hayes also transferred nearly 10 million ENAs to Bybit and other CEXs and made a profit.

Before that, Arthur Hayes had put aside his bold statement and predicted that the price of ENA could exceed $10.

Looking back at ENA's historical trend, when Arthur Hayes "smashed while milking", ENA had re-established $1, and it was a trend of continuing to rise after the market was washed, but the trend was going downward, and now it has fallen by more than 70%.

This time, HYPE just broke through $40 and hit a new high. Arthur Hayes reappeared the "smashing while milking" operation. Will similar scripts repeat themselves?
