Hyperliquid Strategies has submitted an S-1 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to raise up to $1 billion through a public stock offering.
The firm aims to issue up to 160 million common shares in this initiative, with Chardan Capital Markets acting as the financial advisor.
The filing states that the funds raised will be used for general business operations and potential purchases of HYPE tokens. The company currently holds around 12.6 million HYPE tokens.
The company stated,
We intend to use any net proceeds from any sales of shares of our Common Stock to Chardan under the Facility for general corporate purposes, including potential purchases of HYPE Tokens, following the consummation of the Business Combination.
Hyperliquid Targets Nasdaq Listing Under “PURR”
Hyperliquid Strategies was established through a pending merger between Nasdaq-listed Sonnet BioTherapeutics and Rorschach I LLC, a special purpose acquisition company. The merged company will be led by David Schamis as Chief Executive, while Bob Diamond, the former CEO of Barclays, will assume the role of Chairman.
The merger is expected to be completed before the end of the year. Once finalized, Hyperliquid will list on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “PURR.” The filing stated,
There is presently no public market for our Common Stock. We have applied to have our Common Stock listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol ‘PURR.’ No assurance can be given that our application will be approved.
This move positions Hyperliquid alongside other companies that incorporate HYPE into their balance sheets, such as Eyenovia and Lion Group Holding. Adding altcoins has become a preferred choice for companies expanding beyond traditional holdings such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Following the filing, HYPE registered a strong increase in trading performance. Token rose by 9.84% in the last 24 hours, trading at $38.82. Volume increased 16% to $672 million, indicating increased investor interest and renewed market interest.
