Hyperliquid Dominates Commissions Charts, Buybacks on HYPE Token

Hyperliquid has become the best blockchain by commissions as of August 11, 2025 with a total of $977 million collected as commissions since the last 30 days. This was faster than Ethereum with the $454 million and Solana with the $414 million as recorded by the CryptoRank.io and Delfi.ma. The run underlines the increasing popularity of Hyperliquid in the market of decentralized finance (DeFi) due to gas-free perpetual futures contracts trading and novel Layer 1 blockchain architecture.

Revenue Back into HYPE Token

One of the fuel agents of Hyperliquid is revenue allocation. A portion of the fees collected is being used to buy its indigenous HYPE tokens, which is priced at 43.55 dollars at the time of writing with a turnover of 342 dollars within a 24 hour period. This buyback strategy would lead to the decrease in circulating supply, which might increase the market value and support the liquidity and control. HYPE currently has a total supply of 1 billion with 33.38 percent unlocked, with the next major unlock event scheduled to take place on November 29, 2025, the move is gaining much attention by the investment community.

Competitive Technology Better than that of the Competitors

Hyperliquid Layer 1 blockchain adopts use of HyperBFT consensus, with high throughput, reduced latency and fully on-chain margin and matching engine state. The network has the support of a group of alumni of the MIT and Harvard universities and it has recently added EVM compatibility to testnet, providing compatibility with Ethereum-based dApps. Advanced aspects such as HyBridge in cross-chain transfer of assets and ease of less familiar interface will attract traders looking to be quick and economical than Ethereum whose gas fees might be sometimes too steep to afford.

Transformation of DeFi Landscape

This fee-dominance is evidence of a major change in how users of DeFi transact, as increases in traders and developers are shifting off the slower and more expensive legacy chains such as Ethereum to a new, cheaper and faster generation of chains. The strategy that Hyperliquid uses is also advantageous to its future prospects, although unlocks of tokens, volatility in the market, and intensified regulatory pressure still present looming threats in 2025. Nevertheless, the amount of the fees it imposes, averaging out to a cool $977 million, makes it an actual rival in the blockchain competition.
