When is the next HYPE token unlock?

Hyperliquid's official API does not publish a complete future HYPE release calendar. It currently reports 298,692,928 HYPE in circulating supply and 998,990,774 HYPE in total supply. A securities filing describes some contributor distributions while stating that concrete schedules for other allocations remain unannounced. HypeBasis therefore labels calendar dates from other services as third-party models rather than official protocol commitments.

Protocol token definition

A release, transfer, distribution, and circulating-supply update are different events. The official circulating field is the current classification used here; it does not explain who controls each balance or whether any token was sold.

HypeBasis daily captures

How has HYPE supply changed?

Each result compares official supply endpoints across complete daily capture intervals. Missing days, old data, or malformed fields suppress the change.

Net field changes describe official classifications between two saved endpoints. They do not identify a recipient, transfer, sale, or price effect. The shared hourly cron saves at most one valid record per day.

Evidence hierarchy

Why do HYPE unlock calendars disagree?

Sources answer different questions. HypeBasis keeps current protocol fields, filing disclosures, and modeled calendars in separate rows.

Hyperliquid spot API
Official current state
Useful for

Current total and circulating-supply fields for the HYPE spot pair.

Does not prove

No complete future release calendar or recipient intent.

21Shares SEC filing
Third-party filing
Useful for

Reported contributor-distribution mechanics and historical allocation context.

Does not prove

The filing is not protocol documentation and says other concrete schedules remain unannounced.

DeFiLlama
Modeled calendar
Useful for

A transfer-based allocation model with published assumptions.

Does not prove

A tracked transfer does not establish the official circulating classification or a future commitment.

Tokenomist
Modeled calendar
Useful for

A separate vesting and event-calendar interpretation.

Does not prove

Its categories and dates remain third-party model output.

Reading key

Five labels that should stay separate

Scheduled
A calendar model assigns a future date.
Vested
A lock or service condition has elapsed.
Transferred
An onchain balance moved between addresses.
Distributed
A recipient received control of tokens.
Circulating
The official API includes the amount in its current circulating field.

How should traders use unlock data?

Treat supply changes as one input beside market liquidity, revenue, staking emissions, and actual transfer evidence. A calendar event does not prove a sale, and a price move around a date does not prove that the event caused it.

Use observed supply and source provenance as research context. Calendar dates do not prove sales, direction, or price impact.
