Summary
$56, $57 and $58-or-above contracts are now live for HYPE’s price at 8 p.m. EDT on Aug. 16, 2026, with implied prices of 98 cents, 80 cents and 2 cents.
CF Benchmarks’ Real Time Index will determine the outcome by averaging 60 readings collected in the final minute before expiration, rather than using spot quotes from exchanges such as Coinbase.
Winning contracts pay $1 each, positions can be closed before resolution, and trading runs 24 hours a day except Thursday from 3 a.m. to 5 a.m. ET.
The new evening market follows an earlier Aug. 16 8 a.m. EDT HYPE contract that used lower $19-to-$23 thresholds, extending the day’s event-contract lineup on Robinhood Derivatives-linked venues.

Did traders accurately predict the clash between Hyperliquid's billion-dollar buyback engine and massive token dilution as this contract finally expires?
