Hyperion DeFi CEO Issues Letter to Shareholders, Outlines Future Vision
Hyperion DeFi issued a letter to shareholders from its Chief Executive Officer, Hyunsu Jung. "On June 17, 2025 we underwent a massive transformation from Eyenovia, a company building ophthalmic technology, to Hyperion DeFi - the first U.S. publicly listed company holding HYPE, the native token of the Hyperliquid blockchain, on its balance sheet. Last summer, while most Digital Asset Treasury companies launched with the standard "buy-and-hold" strategy, we moved with speed and precision to deploy our treasury asset to establish differentiated business lines and strengthen our operational positioning.. Our actions showcase our firm belief: we win by positioning Hyperliquid and its ecosystem to win. We trust in the Hyperliquid core team to continue building an exceptional on-chain product in HyperCore, while improving the infrastructure on HyperEVM so that our partners can continue to develop applications that can serve retail and institutional users... Hyperliquid's protocol revenues in 2025 showcase what is possible when next-generation infrastructure is built using blockchain rails: Hyperliquid became the highest revenue-generating blockchain network, accounting for over 30% of all blockchain fees at its peak in Q3 2025...The digital asset space has shown time and time again that those that engage early - with conviction backed by a calculated outlook on the future - are rewarded. Hyperion DeFi is the first-mover building comprehensive exposure to the Hyperliquid blockchain ecosystem, and if done correctly, we expect to serve as the ideal gateway for both retail and institutional investors to access the most valuable components of Hyperliquid. By deploying markets that are globally accessible and trading 24/7, we can generate revenues regardless of the price of HYPE. Secondary to the launch of markets are the various entities that come to Hyperliquid - specifically to trade on those new markets - which we service through HAUS. All together, we have a business that we believe will grow more powerful with scale - HYPE deployed to the right partners means that more markets can be created, which are the very products that can bring more global users to Hyperliquid."
