anchored·2JFPiE…4nmJSummary
On 26 March 2025, an alleged coordinated trading pattern in the thinly traded JELLYJELLY (JELLY) token put Hyperliquid's community HLP vault on the opposite side of a large short position as the spot price rose. Hyperliquid validators voted to delist the JELLY perpetual contract and force-settle positions, and Hyperliquid said flagged addresses would be excluded from compensation. Loss figures and the exchange's reported profit are contested and vary by outlet; no primary Hyperliquid statement or independent audit of the $703K figure was located.
