What does the AltLayer data show?

1. MACD turned bearish

MACD flipped bearish: the fast average of price pulled below the slow one, which is the earliest of the trend signals we track and the noisiest. Market structure is still making lower highs and lower lows. The most recent daily candle pattern is three black crows. RSI (14) is 42.1.

2. AltLayer is parked in the lower third of its 90-day range

AltLayer is 13% of the way up its 90-day range, which runs from $0.005339 to $0.01076; over 30 days the market is +6.77%. The same headline number means something different at the top of a range than at the bottom — which is why position is worth naming.

3. Where the leverage sits

Perpetual funding runs at 10.95% annualised, so longs are paying shorts to keep their positions open. Funding is a crowding tax: the more one-sided the book, the more it costs to stay on that side, and the more likely the weakest hands there get squeezed out. Open interest stands at $515 K — that is the size of the leveraged book that has to be closed eventually.

What is next for AltLayer?

Dates we can verify and levels that would change the read on AltLayer. No project roadmaps here — only schedules that exist on-chain or in the company calendar, and thresholds measured from our own data.

  • Close below $0.005339 (12.01% away)That is the floor of the 90-day range. A daily close below it undercuts the structure and would file a breakdown entry in the log above.
  • Model's 30-day marker: $0.005858 (−3.47%)A deterministic projection from the same combined signal, damped by volatility. It is arithmetic, not a forecast anyone stands behind — and certainly not advice.

Frequently asked questions

What is the latest news on AltLayer?

The most recent development we recorded is: MACD turned bearish (2026-07-22). This page is a dated log computed from market data rather than a press feed — every entry is a measurement with the date it happened.

How often is the AltLayer page updated?

Once a day: it is recomputed after the daily candle closes, and the time of the last update is printed at the top of the page. Log entries are dated by the day the event happened, not the day we published it.

From Hyperliquid directly: daily candles, open interest, funding and the on-chain positions of active large wallets. Nothing here is copied from another site's article, and no language model writes the text — the wording is generated from the numbers by fixed rules.

No. It is an algorithmic summary of measured market data from Hyperliquid — price moves, positioning, derivatives and our own model. It is not investment advice and past performance does not guarantee future results.
