Furthermore, the crypto analyst Scient revealed that the digital asset has continued to trade in line with earlier expectations, showing strong resilience around the low $50s, where a key daily support and resistance zone is currently forming.
Price action here is crucial, as the market decides whether momentum continues or short-term pressure leads to a deeper retracement in the near term.

From a structural standpoint, the best-case situation would be one of consolidation, permitting several weeks or even months of sideways action above the $35 support zone.
As long as $35 does not break, the general outlook is positive, setting up a better foundation stage that may lead to a sustainable rally in the second half of the year.
According to TradingView, HYPE exhibits a solid bullish pattern, which is supported by a sustained price action above all key EMAs.
At the moment, the token is valued at $43.54 after reaching a high of $46.22. Fanned out EMAs such as those of 20, 50, 100, and 200 are clear indications that the asset is experiencing healthy momentum.

Volatility is rising due to widening Bollinger Bands, with the price hitting the upper band. Dynamic support comes from the 20-EMA level of $42.10.
If the pullback turns into something more serious, the next potential support will be the 50-EMA level of $39.84. The price needs to stay above these levels to make a move towards $46.00.
