Overview
- Filings detail an in‑progress combination of Sonnet BioTherapeutics and Rorschach I to form Hyperliquid Strategies Inc., with plans to register up to 160 million new shares.
- The S-1 discloses a treasury of 12.6 million HYPE tokens and $305 million in cash, and states the company intends to stake substantially all of its HYPE holdings.
- The capital plan uses a structured equity facility with Chardan Capital Markets executed Oct. 22, providing optional capacity of up to $1 billion depending on market conditions and share sales.
- The filing warns of enhanced regulatory scrutiny and significant dilution, noting Sonnet shareholders are expected to own about 1.2% of the combined company.
- HYPE posted single‑day gains of roughly 7%–12% as volumes and open interest rose, aided by Robinhood enabling spot trading, though execution remains contingent on merger close and regulatory review.
