Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget cryptocurrency exchange, criticized Hyperliquid's handling of the March 26 incident, which threatened the network with serious consequences.

The JELLY Incident

On March 26, Hyperliquid announced the delisting of perpetual futures contracts for the JELLY token after identifying suspicious market activity. This decision, made by consensus among Hyperliquid's small number of validators, raised concerns about the network's centralization.

Crypto Community Reactions

Hyperliquid's decision to close the $JELLY market and enforce favorable position settlements has drawn criticism from crypto leaders. Gracy Chen has called the network's actions 'immature, unethical, and unprofessional.' Other figures like BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes have expressed skepticism about Hyperliquid's claims to decentralization.

Hyperliquid's Growing Pains

Hyperliquid, a popular leveraged trading platform, continues to face growth challenges, such as large positions impacting price systems. In March, Hyperliquid faced a $200 million ETH liquidation loss, which led to an increase in collateral requirements to reduce systemic risks.

The JELLY incident and subsequent criticism of Hyperliquid highlight the importance of creating more decentralized and transparent structures in crypto networks to prevent such situations in the future.
