HYPE on Solana is a memecoin trading on the name of crypto's most-used noun — distinct from the Hyperliquid asset of the same ticker, which lives on a different chain entirely. The October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $66.2 million across 53,759 wallets on mint 98sMhvDwXj1RQi5c5Mndm3vPe9cBqPrbLaufMXFNMh5g.
Ticker collision is the first thing to verify: the famous HYPE is Hyperliquid's, and this token borrows the letters. Holding this one gives you a Solana meme asset, not exposure to the Hyperliquid protocol — check the mint, not the ticker.
Liquidity near $3.6 million is deep for its class — the name alone recruits a real market. Contract reads clean; the asset is nonetheless a name play.
Figures are HostDeFi's October 6, 2026 snapshot; the live scan above refreshes them in seconds.
Balance concentration: the 10 largest token accounts hold 36.8% of HYPE's supply as of 2026-08-16 — a comparatively wide distribution for its size. Note these are token accounts: liquidity pools, exchange wallets and lockers count among them, so read this together with liquidity, not instead of it.

FAQ
Is HYPE a safe token?
As of the 2026-09-26 snapshot, HYPE scores 100/100 (grade A) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on unconfirmed mint authority, renounced freeze authority, liquidity of $3.61M and 53,759 holders. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.
Can you sell HYPE, or is it a honeypot?
On Solana, the lever that can block a sale is the freeze authority, and HYPE's is renounced as of 2026-09-26 — no one can freeze your balance to trap you in. With $3.61M of liquidity there's a pool to sell into, though how cleanly depends on your size against that depth.
Who holds most of HYPE?
HYPE has 53,759 holders as of 2026-09-26. A headline count doesn't reveal how much the largest wallets control, so read it with the concentration figure on this page — broad distribution is a good sign, a few wallets owning most of the supply is not.
Can HYPE's supply be inflated?
The mint authority state couldn't be confirmed from the 2026-09-26 snapshot — verify it with a live scan before relying on the supply being fixed.
What is the HYPE contract address?
The HYPE mint address on Solana is 98sMhvDwXj1RQi5c5Mndm3vPe9cBqPrbLaufMXFNMh5g. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy HYPE safely?
Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if HYPE clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (98sMhvDwXj1RQi5c5Mndm3vPe9cBqPrbLaufMXFNMh5g) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
