During last week’s market downturn that saw HYPE prices plummet towards $20, Hyperliquid reportedly maintained 100% uptime with zero bad debt, as stated by the platform’s founder, Jeff Yan. However, in a post shared on social media site X (formerly Twitter), Yan also raised concerns about certain centralized exchanges (CEXs), suggesting they may have underreported liquidation data during this volatile event. The Liquidation Debate In his remarks, the platform’s founder highlighted that Hyperliquid operates on a blockchain where every order, trade, and liquidation occurs visibly on-chain, allowing anyone to permissionlessly verify the execution of these processes. Related Reading: Bitcoin Weekly Preview: Trump’s Tariff Playbook Is Back — Here’s How To Trade It Yet, Yan identified a troubling trend among some CEXs, which he claims publicly document a drastic underreporting of user liquidations. He took Binance’s example, noting that even when thousands of liquidation orders occur simultaneously, only one is reported due to limitations in its data stream. The platform’s founder asserted that this can obscure the actual volume of liquidations, particularly during high-volatility events like the recent flash crash, leading to a potential underreporting factor of 100 times. In response to Yan’s criticism, Binance former CEO and founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), addressed the issue, stating, Some people ask why is #BNB so strong? While others tried to ignore, hide, shift blame, or attack competitors, the key @BNBChain ecosystem players (Binance, Venus, and more) took hundreds of millions out of their own pockets to PROTECT USERS. From Binance To Hyperliquid This exchange comes on the heels of a major drop on broader crypto prices last Friday, which saw the Bitcoin (BTC) price drop from $122,000 to $102,000 on exchanges like Binance, leading to the liquidation of over $19 billion in leveraged positions. Amid the chaos, Jeff noted that Hyperliquid reportedly managed a trading volume between $50 and $70 billion without any downtime or disruption. In contrast, Binance faced temporary technical issues that left some users unable to close their positions.

During this period, he, along with co-founder Brian Wong, aimed to develop Deaux, a decentralized prediction market product. Their vision was to create a platform that facilitated collaborative betting within an international liquidity pool using cryptocurrency. Throughout their time in the Binance Incubation Program, they emphasized the importance of user experience while exploring the benefits of decentralization. Their product sought to mirror the user-friendly interface of centralized exchanges like Binance—offering low fees and real-time feedback—while ensuring security through blockchain smart contracts and incorporating decentralized democratic voting for settlement.

Binance Coin (BNB) climbed to a fresh record on Monday, hitting $1,370 after briefly topping $1,355. According to reports, the move came even as the wider crypto market took a heavy blow — a nearly $20 billion wipeout tied to leveraged positions — leaving many tokens under pressure while BNB pushed onward. The token also stood out in the top 20 by market cap by closing the week with a 10% gain. Related Reading: XRP Traders Face Fresh Selling Pressure As Large Holders Move Out BNB Inks New Highs Traders watching price charts pointed to a string of strong moves. After a rally to $860 in July, BNB fell about 14% to $728 and then resumed its rise. It later reached $1,075 before pulling back to $930, and it rode that momentum into the early October peak. During the market-wide sell-off that followed, BNB dipped back toward $855 but then recovered and surged to the current all-time high of $1,375, before easing to around $1,272 in the latest swings.

(@WisdomMatic) October 13, 2025 Traders Spot Parabolic Upswing A number of market voices have described the most recent pattern as parabolic. One prominent trader, posting under the name Big Wiz, said BNB “swallowed” last week’s crash and then went on to print new highs. Charts shared by analysts show steep curves and quick pullbacks, which have been met with buying rather than long-lasting sell pressure. This type of action has led to talk of a “Binance supercycle,” though that phrase is speculative and remains unproven. Some market participants say the rally reflects genuine demand for the token. Others worry that concentrated buying or internal factors could be inflating prices. Speculation And Skepticism Remain Reports have disclosed that not everyone agrees on the cause of the rally. Some investors point to active product launches and community interest on BNB Chain as drivers. Related Reading: Bitcoin Whale Breaks 13-Year Silence, Moves $33 Million To Exchange Others say promotion and market attention could be pushing prices higher without a broad base of support. The claim that BNB is the only top 20 asset to end the week in the green with an 10% rise is a clear data point, but it does not explain the full story behind trader behavior. fudders even try to make this sound like a bad thing? ????????♂️ Please post more of this about #BNB. ???? https://t.co/hOUy6ll4BS — CZ ????
