In hindsight, exchanges not listing $HYPE backfired spectacularly.

By forcing users to bridge and actually use Hyperliquid for exposure, they created a reflexive loop where:

→ Users realized the product is genuinely better than CEX and started using it beyond getting $HYPE exposure → Drove more adoption, accelerating the CEX/DEX shift and giving Hyperliquid more market share → Users bought more $HYPE as they grew bullish on the long-term thesis

The blacklisting (due to threat perception) only strengthened their position. Streisand effect.
