There's an interesting valuation puzzle worth examining here. Lighter currently drives roughly 5% of Hyperliquid's revenue stream, yet the market has priced $LIT at approximately 10% of $HYPE's valuation. That math doesn't quite add up. If we map revenue generation to market cap directly, $LIT appears either significantly undervalued or $HYPE is running ahead of fundamentals. Two possibilities emerge: either $LIT should trade at roughly half its current ratio to $HYPE, or $HYPE has room to nearly double its current valuation. Given the revenue contribution disparity, the latter scenario seems more plausible—suggesting $HYPE still has runway as the market catches up to recognize Hyperliquid's value proposition more fully.

Damn, this math really doesn't add up... Lit's valuation is only 5% of revenue but its market cap is over 10%? The hype is doubling.

Can this hype logic hold up? Lit only contributes 5% of the returns but accounts for 10% of the hype valuation... It still feels like the market hasn't fully reacted yet.

Hype, this valuation is indeed outrageous. Lit contributes only 5% of revenue but accounts for 10% of market value. The gap is huge.

The valuation logic of hype is indeed outrageous, and it's a bit unfair that LIT got hammered so hard. But to be honest, who dares to fully trust the fundamentals in this market...
