Process Note

Pre-market is a level read, not a forecast. Mark the overnight high and low, decide where you'll get long, short, or stand aside before the cash open, and let the news prints come to your levels, not the other way around.

HYPE staking: 442,249,824 HYPE currently delegated to Hyperliquid validators, +134,034 (+0.03%) on the day. Nothing unusual.

Supply context, not a trade signal. These flows move over days and say nothing about where price goes today.
