Hey Folks, Jeff Bishop here,
We’re coming off a great trading session yesterday, with the Nasdaq gaining an impressive 0.9% and the S&P 500 rising 0.4% to an all-time high.
On the “tactical” trading front, I alerted a cannabis-banking stock that was sitting at recent support. I was watching it for another lift-off, and that’s exactly what we saw:
My focus is now on a different small stock that also achieved lift-off yesterday…
💥Have a look at Hyperion DeFi, Inc. (HYPD) on your trading platform.
The stock began rallying Monday morning, and it’s now up 30% from its low that day, including a big 21.7% jump yesterday.
The stock is up nearly double-digits in the pre-market as of this writing, so it’s worth getting on your radar right away.
HYPD describes itself as “the first U.S. publicly listed company building a long-term strategic treasury of HYPE.”
As of late last year, the company held over $1.4 million HYPE tokens. Here’s the latest on HYPE from CoinDesk:
HYPE is actually up 65% over the last week — as of this writing — according to CoinMarketCap, and that includes a 23% jump in the last 24 hours.
For those unfamiliar with HYPE, at $10.2 billion, this relative newcomer is now the 12th largest crypto by market cap…
Comparing it to the cryptos with larger market caps, none is up even double-digit percentages over the last week, much less 60%+.
That’s obviously generating headlines, and the CoinDesk article mentions HYPD and generously quotes HYPD’s new CEO Hyunsu Jung.
With all the momentum at HYPE’s back, and tiny HYPD getting big-time press attention, it’s no surprise the stock is rallying again in the pre-market.
I’m paying close attention to the stock today to see where this rally takes it.
Hyperion DeFi began life as Eyenovia, Inc., a small ophthalmic/medical tech company.
Last July, it rebranded to reflect its pivot toward blockchain and DeFi strategies.
Despite the new focus, the company still says it is “developing its proprietary Optejet User Filled Device that is designed to work with a variety of topical ophthalmic liquids, including artificial tears and lens rewetting products.”
Here are the top 5 things to know about HYPD as it stands today:
1) Experienced leadership that knows how to navigate regulators 🧠
On September 29, HYPD announced the appointment of David Knox as Chief Financial Officer. He joined HYPD from PayPal, where he served as Head of Capital Markets and Head of Finance for Global Credit and Financial Services.
At PayPal, he helped grow profitable lending segments and led financial planning/reporting across massive business lines — experience that’s incredibly rare among pure crypto startups.
That matters in DeFi more than most investors realize. Hyperion is already operating inside the U.S. public-markets framework, issuing shareholder letters, filing disclosures, and communicating clearly with investors.
2) Massive $50M PIPE funding fuels expansion 💰
On June 17, Hyperion revealed a $50 million PIPE (Private Investment in Public Equity) with institutional crypto-savvy investors to launch its digital asset strategy. That’s a huge vote of confidence.
3) Record earnings and rapid revenue growth 📈
Hyperion isn’t sitting on its crypto assets, it’s making money from them.
For Q3 2025, the company reported a net income of $6.6 million, the highest in the company’s 10+ year history and up from a loss of $7.9 million the year-prior quarter.
It also said it anticipates Q4 2025 adjusted revenues of $475,000 to $515,000, a 31% to 43% quarter-on-quarter growth compared to Q3.
4) Strategic partnerships and new revenue streams 🤝
HYPD is deploying tokens in ways that generate revenue and deepen ecosystem ties:
5) Deep integration with Hyperliquid tech 🔗
Hyperion is tightly integrated with key components of the Hyperliquid ecosystem, including:
Final Thoughts
A lot of DeFi / blockchain stuff goes over my head, so on trade ideas like this, I look at where the smart money is going…
In December alone, HYPD insiders — including PayPal alum David Knox — mopped up 189,204 HYPD shares:
That’s a massive vote of confidence from people who know.
As you do your own research, be sure to check out this January 12 shareholder letter from CEO Hyunsu Jung. It goes into great detail about the company’s “flywheel” strategy.
Also check out this Q3 2025 “earnings supplement” which is effectively an investor presentation.
And naturally, be sure to review the company’s investor relation’s website, including press releases.
As always, be sure to approach your trading in a responsible manner. Trading is very risky, and nothing is ever guaranteed, so never trade with more than you can afford to lose.
Please read the full disclaimer at the bottom of this email as well so you are aware of our compensation and other conflicts of interest, as well as additional risks and considerations. Always have a well-thought-out game plan that takes your personal risk tolerance into consideration.

Just so you know, what you’re reading is curated content for which we have received a monetary fee (detailed below) to create and distribute. Let’s be clear that investing can be quite the roller coaster as stock prices can have wild swings up and down, so consider those crucial risks before you ever consider trading anything we discuss. Make sure you check out our full disclosure down below for the details on how we were paid, the risks, and why these results aren’t what you’d call “typical.”
Just a quick heads up about this ad you’re reading—as we’ve said, even though we like the company referenced above, and all the facts we discussed above are true to the best of our knowledge, we are running a business here. To distribute this information and help offset the costs of maintaining our large digital audience, in advance of writing the content above, we received fifteen thousand dollars (cash) from Hyperion DeFi, Inc (via The Investing Authority) for a one day marketing program starting on January 28, 2026.
It might seem obvious, but while our client claims not to own any shares in Hyperion DeFi, Inc, whoever ultimately paid them most likely owns shares. You should assume they are looking to sell some or all of them at any time after we send out this information, which might negatively affect the stock price. We may also buy or sell shares in the company at some point in the future, although neither Sherwood Ventures nor its owners own any shares of the company at this time. Also, keep in mind that due to the sheer size of our audience, if even a small percentage of people decide they want to buy this stock, it could potentially boost interest enough to hike up those share prices and cause a temporary spike, and the opposite is possible as the marketing campaign ends, though that is not always the case.
Now, diving right into Hyperion DeFi, Inc might sound exciting. But remember, it’s like venturing into the wilderness—be aware that there’s exceptional risk involved in trading. This isn’t small potatoes we’re talking about; you could lose every dime you put in, so always carefully think about what you’re doing. That’s why they call this trading, after all. We’re shining a light on the good stuff about the company here, but it’s on you to do your homework, make your own calls, and determine a plan for your own trading, hopefully with the help of your professional 1nvestment advis0r.
Oh, that brings us to another crucial point—we’re not here to tell you (or even recommend) what you should do with your hard-earned money. We’re simply sharing our non-expert thoughts by highlighting some companies who are paying us and we like that could use some help telling their story to more people. We’re obviously biased in our writing. We’re not here to dig into anything that may be negative about the company; this is advertising, after all! Also, keep in mind that if we make some predictions about the future, these are technically known as “forward-L00king statements” under the securities acts, so take those with a grain of salt. As with all forecasts, they’re not set in stone, often wrong, and we certainly can’t know where the Company’s earnings, business, or share price will be tomorrow or a year from now.
Everything you read from us is all for your education, information, and possible entertainment. While we believe the info is reliable and accurate, we can’t wear a cape and guarantee it. Before you jump into anything, make sure to talk it over with a pro—someone you trust who’s licensed to give you real advice. To be clear, neither Sherwood Ventures nor its owners, employees, or independent contractors are registered as a securities broker-dealer, broker, 1nvest.ment advis0r (IA), or IA rep’s with the SEC, any state securities regulatory authority, or any self-regu1atory organization.
