[Crypto World] Hyperliquid founder Jeff Yan recently defended his platform’s “decentralization” commitment. According to him, the platform adheres to three no policies: no private funding, no internal market makers, and no protocol fees. This statement sounds quite firm.
But reality has been somewhat face-slapping. Competitor Lighter was heavily criticized by the community after giving millions of dollars in stealth airdrops to Jump Trading and a well-known VC. Although Hyperliquid claims to be innocent, the market speaks with data — in May, it still captured 75% of the market share, but it quickly dropped below 19%, which is quite embarrassing.
The HYPE token is currently trading at around $24.8, a significant decline compared to its previous glory. Whether the “trustworthy and neutral” image can truly impress the market remains to be seen. A good business model doesn’t necessarily guarantee market confidence; product strength and user experience might be the real key.

Laughing and then crying, dropping from 75% to 19%, this is truly the cost of "trustworthy neutrality."

Jeff Yan's three-no policy made me want to applaud, but the market's one sentence: Data will speak.
---
From top influencer to laggard, HYPE's move this time is arguably the comedy of the year in the crypto world. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
---
So, no matter how firm the promise, it can't withstand the market's ruthless backstabbing. Is the lesson of 76 percentage points worth it, everyone?
---
Lighter appears so innocent when criticized; only when falling behind do you realize what "innocence can't buy the market" means.

Today's leek diary: I found out that the more you tout decentralization, the more hurt you get. This isn't a rule, it's a curse.

Look at HYPE at over 24 dollars. Who else wants to talk about the story of "trustworthy neutrality"?

Speaking of this "trustworthy neutrality," it sounds like an empty promise. The market share being cut in half directly indicates a problem.

Where's the promised decentralization? All the data has been wiped out, this is really awkward.

75% drops to 19%, this decline is outrageous... Where is the promised "trustworthy neutrality"? The market simply doesn't buy it.
