- Price: ~0.08–0.09 USD (based on current data, CoinMarketCap, MEXC).
- Context: HFT is the token of Hashflow, a decentralized exchange (DEX) on Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and Polygon, using a Request-for-Quote (RFQ) model for trading without slippage and MEV protection. Launched in November 2022. Market capitalization: ~45–50 million USD (rank ~500–600). Trading volume: ~12–25 million USD/24h. Circulating supply: ~591 million HFT, maximum: 1 billion. Price dropped by ~95% from ATH (1.98 USD, November 2022). Recent decline of 0.5–5% over 24 hours, but a rise of 15–137% over the month is linked to announcements and listings (@vollyasv, X). TVL: ~20–30 million USD.
Technical forecast for 2026 (based on analytics):
- Prices:

Fundamentals:
- Growth drivers:
- DeFi and RFQ: Hashflow provides zero slippage, integrated with Binance, MEXC, Bybit, KuCoin. Trading volume: >25 billion USD.
- Tokenomics: 50% of protocol fees go to buyback and burn HFT (900K HFT burned). Deflationary model.
- Partnerships: Chainlink, Solana, Arbitrum, Polygon. Integration with institutional market makers (PMM).
- Community: Positive on X (@vollyasv, @mhmet_yldzz) — buy signals (entry $0.27–0.28, targets $0.31–0.34). Binance Launchpool activity.
- BTC Halving (2024): supports altcoins in 2025–2026.
- Innovations: cross-chain trading, MEV protection, NFT aggregation support.
- Risks:
- Regulation: SEC may classify HFT as a security.
- Volatility: low capitalization (~50 million USD) vulnerable to whales.
- Competition: Uniswap, PancakeSwap, 1inch in DeFi.
- Unlocks: 160.4 million HFT (November 2024) caused price pressure. Unlocks expected in 2025 (~50 million USD).
- Pessimism: WalletInvestor predicts a drop to 0.006–0.009 USD by 2030.
Recommendation:
- Investors: Buy on corrections to 0.07–0.08 USD, stop below 0.04 USD. Target: 0.25–0.50 USD. Staking (APR ~3–7%, if available) for income.
- Traders: Buy on break above 0.11 USD, target 0.25–0.35 USD. Sell below 0.07 USD, target 0.04–0.05 USD.
- Risk: 0.5–1% of deposit due to high volatility, low liquidity, and regulatory risks.
Risks: Regulation, competition, unlocks, whale manipulation, DeFi decline, BTC/ETH drop.
