What happened?
S&P Dow Jones Indices licensed its flagship S&P 500 index (the benchmark tracking the performance of 500 leading U.S. companies and a cornerstone of global equity markets for nearly seven decades) to Trade[XYZ]
This partnership enabled the launch of the first officially licensed perpetual futures contract based on the S&P 500, exclusively available on the Hyperliquid blockchain.
This perpetual futures product allows eligible non-U.S. investors to gain leveraged, long or short exposure to the S&P 500 index on a continuous basis. Unlike traditional equity trading, which is confined to standard exchange hours, this on-chain contract operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with no fixed expiration date.
It draws directly from institutional-grade, real-time index data provided by S&P Dow Jones Indices, ensuring accuracy and credibility that sets it apart from unofficial or synthetic versions previously available in crypto ecosystems.
This is a huge win for Hyperliquid, and the validation of the broader thesis on crypto replacing TradFi over time.
How did the market react?
HYPE has been one of the strongest performers in the last 5-6 weeks. I’ve personally been bullish on it since $20-$21. However, it feels like the latest news has been front-run and traders/investors were positioned ahead of the announcement, and are selling the news now.
Additionally, the HYPE trade increasingly feels a bit too consensus at the moment and, thus, the alpha has significantly diminished at the moment in my opinion. Doesn’t mean it won’t perform well or anything fundamentally has changed, but it is now more or less properly priced-in already.
Therefore, if you have been holding HYPE since $20-$21 or even sub $30, it is not a bad place to take some chips off the table, and wait for better risk-adjusted entries. Profit is profit, even HYPE continues to go higher. Hyperliquid

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
