Hyperliquid Team Plans OTC Transfer of 3.75M HYPE Tokens to Institutional Buyer

AI Market Summary
Hyperliquid Labs is unstaking 3.75M HYPE (~$337.5M) tied to an OTC sale to an institution, with distribution to team members scheduled for Oct 7. The clarification that tokens will not be sold on the open market reduces immediate spot-supply overhang and may dampen near-term volatility relative to fears of direct exchange selling. However, the size of the transfer remains material for liquidity and positioning.
