HYPE (HYPE)

Analysis

HYPE needs caution (60/100). The main concern: the team still has control over the token: can mint new tokens. Those powers can change the rules after you buy. On the plus side, 12 different wallets sold in the last 24 hours, so selling works in practice. This reading comes only from on-chain facts and lowers the risk; it never removes it.

• ⚠ The team still has control over the token: can mint new tokens. Those powers can change the rules after you buy.
• ⚠ Ownership is concentrated: the 10 biggest wallets hold 55% of the supply (pools and burns not counted).
• ✓ 12 different wallets sold in the last 24 hours, so selling works in practice.
• ✓ The pools hold $9.17M, which is deep enough for normal trades.
• ✓ About $1.76M can be sold before the price drops 5%.
• ✓ It has traded for 1.2 years.

Not checked: The sell test has not run yet · Source code is not checked · Whether the liquidity is locked · When the token launched

Every check

• Code cannot change. Not an upgradeable proxy: the token code is fixed.
• Has an owner. 0x574b…e512 controls the owner-only functions below.
• Can mint new tokens. The contract has a mint function: the owner can print more supply.
• Liquidity in v3/v4 positions. This pool uses Uniswap position NFTs; lock status cannot be read like a v2 pool.
• 29 tokens use this ticker. Many tokens share this name. Always check the address before you buy.
• No description or project links. We found no description, website or social links for this token. Not a risk on its own, but it gives buyers less to check.

Progress

2026-11-11: caution 52 → 2026-11-11: caution 60

How it can improve

• Can mint new tokens: Revoke the mint authority so nobody can print more tokens. On Solana: spl-token authorize <MINT> mint --disable. On EVM chains, renounce the role that can mint.
• Top 10 wallets hold 55% of the supply: Spread the supply: avoid big single wallets, and lock team tokens in vesting.
• Has an owner: Renounce ownership, or move it to a multisig with a public timelock if the team still needs it.
