How many HYPE holders are indexed?

Hypurrscan's latest HIP-1 index reports 253,664 addresses with a HYPE balance as of Aug 26, 2026, 5:01 AM UTC. This is an indexed address count, not a count of people or complete beneficial owners. The view separates protocol system addresses and does not combine validator-delegated HYPE or individual HyperEVM balances with the ranked rows.

Address-count change can reflect transfers, account splitting, or dust balances. It does not measure new users.

Protocol accounts

System balances explain the two largest rows

HypeBasis removes these addresses from the non-system ranking. Their balances describe protocol accounting, not one trader's HYPE position.

One address can represent an exchange, fund, contract, or many customers. One owner can also control several addresses.

Is the largest HYPE holder a whale?

The largest indexed balance is the official HyperEVM transfer system address. The second is the assistance fund. Neither row represents one trader, so both stay outside the address ranking.

Does this index equal HYPE ownership?

No. The index ranks HIP-1 address balances. It does not merge linked wallets, exchange customers, validator delegations, or individual HyperEVM addresses into beneficial-owner entities.

  • The table describes public addresses, not people, beneficial owners, or complete entities.
  • The index does not combine validator delegations or individual HyperEVM balances with each address row.
