Hyperliquid officially responded to the price pinning incident in its SK Hynix (SKHYNIX) perpetual contract market, explaining how the HIP-3 market operates. Hyperliquid is a permissionless blockchain, where different teams can deploy and run markets on it as an infrastructure layer. The SKHYNIX perpetual contract was deployed and operated by the Trade.xyz team, which is currently investigating the incident and will share updates once a conclusion is reached. Secondly, HIP-3 deployers push their market’s mark price, oracle price, and external perpetual price inputs. Based on today’s posts and support tickets, it may be necessary to walk through this mechanism. Deployers can choose to adopt a mark price method similar to that used for perpetual contracts operated by validators (such as BTC). In this case, the protocol contributes one of three median components: the median of on-chain data (latest trade price, best bid, best ask). The other two components are pushed by the deployer and influence the final mark price. For a simplified example: if the median of on-chain data (latest trade price, best bid, best ask) is 100, but the deployer pushes (150, 151), the mark price will be 150. Note: As of press time, Hyperliquid officials have not provided further clarification.

E-commerce working capital RWA platform Dow Protocol announced the completion of a $9 million seed round, with participation from MH Ventures, OKX Ventures, Animoca Brands, Arcane Group, Essentia Partners, and Quartet Group. Dow Protocol serves merchants of leading global e-commerce platforms, providing working capital advances based on their sales receivables and real operational data. Its underlying asset service system is embedded in mainstream e-commerce platforms, enabling direct access to merchants' raw operational data for credit assessment and risk control. Meanwhile, via partnerships with these platforms, repayments are deducted directly from the platform side, bypassing merchant accounts, which fundamentally mitigates repayment risks and establishes an industry-leading collection mechanism. On the capital side, Dow Protocol leverages the instant settlement capabilities of stablecoins, cutting the lengthy disbursement process of traditional lending to as fast as same-day arrival. For the cash-flow-sensitive working capital market, disbursement speed is a value in itself, so market participants are willing to pay a premium for this efficiency. Additionally, Dow Protocol advances new on-chain native logic for working capital advances, enabling high-granularity, programmable execution of advance terms, and reengineering the underlying operational logic of supply chain finance. Dow Protocol positions itself as a general-purpose pan-e-commerce PayFi RWA advance protocol, with a framework scalable to supply chain finance advance needs across multiple sectors including e-commerce, catering, payments, gaming, and AI computing power.

According to Hyperinsight monitoring, among current SKHY holding addresses, the whale starting with 0xdb0 ranks first with an unrealized loss of approximately $993,000, a loss scale nearly 10 times that of the second-ranked address. This address currently holds a long position of about 47,500 SKHY contracts with 5x isolated margin leverage, with a position value of around $6.547 million, an average entry price of $158.87, and a return of -65.8%. Its liquidation price is $124.78, only about 9.6% away from the current price. The whale has been trading SKHY since its listing, and realized a profit of about $553,000 in its first round of trading. On July 15, it re-entered long positions near $184, an entry price 23.5% higher than the issuance price. As SKHY continued to decline afterward, it kept adding positions, gradually lowering its overall average holding price to $158.87. After SKHY broke below the issuance price for the first time, the address today created an additional 100 layered buy orders, extending its bottom-buy averaging range from $136 down to $52.3, planning to add about 113,600 SKHY, with a total order value of approximately $10 million and a weighted average order price of $88.05. The lowest-tier buy order is set at $52.3, 62.1% lower than the current price and 64.9% lower than the issuance price, equivalent to 35.1% of the issuance price. If all orders are filled without triggering liquidation and with sufficient margin, its SKHY long position will increase to about 161,000 contracts, expanding to 3.4 times its current size, and the overall average holding price will drop to around $108.92. When the final-tier order is filled at $52.3, the position’s unrealized loss is expected to expand to approximately $9.121 million...
