Nvidia futures trading on Hyperliquid was reported at $2.14 billion in daily volume on November 13, after Nvidia disclosed Jensen Huang’s departure as CEO. That figure measures trading volume, not liquidations, and available data doesn’t consistently show Nvidia contracts ahead of XRP.
U.Today reported on November 13 at 12:36 UTC that Nvidia’s perpetual contract on decentralized exchange Hyperliquid reached a daily trading-volume record of $2.14 billion. CoinGlass data cited by the outlet put Nvidia derivatives volume across tracked crypto exchanges at $9.51 billion. The Hyperliquid contract, offered by Trade.xyz, recorded more volume than Ethereum, Solana and XRP contracts on the platform during that period.
The $2.14 billion is not a liquidation total. Marsbit described it on November 13 as record daily trading volume for Trade.xyz’s Nvidia perpetual on Hyperliquid. However, The Block had reported $2.34 billion in 24-hour Nvidia perpetual-futures volume on November 12. The supplied reports do not reconcile those figures or establish whether they use the same measurement window. The contract launched on November 12, 2025.
Liquidation comparisons are less consistent. U.Today cited CoinGlass figures of $40.86 million in Nvidia-contract liquidations for its stated period: $26.23 million for the on-chain XYZ:NVDA ticker and $14.63 million for the base NVDA contract. It put XRP liquidations at $20.75 million. But a CoinGlass table checked on November 13 showed $12.16 million for NVDA and $15.48 million for XRP. That snapshot therefore did not rank Nvidia above XRP.
The available sources don’t explain the difference. Contract groupings, measurement windows or updates may affect the totals, but none is confirmed as the cause. The supported conclusion is that Nvidia derivatives saw heavy trading and notable liquidations, not that every CoinGlass view ranked them above XRP.
Perpetual-contract volume and liquidation totals measure different kinds of activity.
Nvidia announced the leadership transition on November 12, after its board accepted Huang’s resignation as president, CEO and director on November 11, effective immediately. The filing was signed the next day. CFO Colette Kress became interim CEO while the company searches for a permanent successor, and Harvey C. Jones was appointed its first board chair. The SEC filing records the board action.
U.Today said Huang’s resignation came amid an internal investigation, but neither the supplied filing nor Nvidia’s transition announcement gives a reason for his departure. Nvidia said the board had full confidence in Kress and expected operations, customer commitments and its product roadmap to continue without interruption. Kress said Nvidia would keep advancing accelerated computing and AI. These are company statements, not independent guarantees of future performance.
The company’s transition announcement names Kress as interim CEO but does not identify a permanent successor. The Block reported that Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong expressed regret about Huang’s exit and Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao called it a mistake. Those are individual reactions, not evidence about Nvidia’s outlook.
U.Today reported that sharp price moves led to liquidations in Nvidia contracts, including a $1.54 million long position, the largest single liquidation on Hyperliquid in its report.
Nvidia appointed CFO Colette Kress interim CEO while it searches for a permanent successor.
U.Today reported that Nvidia shares fell as much as 14% intraday, then recovered most of the decline to close at $166.19, down 4.34%. It also said Nvidia futures rose 5.6% to $171.17 during its reported period. The figures show how stock trading and crypto derivatives can move differently across venues and time windows.
Crypto markets were also under pressure. These CoinGecko prices are from 14:13 UTC on November 13, 2026. They differ from earlier intraday figures cited by U.Today and The Block.
Asset Price 24-hour change Bitcoin (BTC) $69,263 -4.19% Ethereum (ETH) $1,963.79 -2.07% XRP $1.03 +0.29% Solana (SOL) $81.29 +0.29%U.Today reported $1.65 billion in liquidations across crypto exchanges over 24 hours, with 187,389 traders liquidated and 88% of the amount coming from long positions. The Block’s November 13 report cited a different CoinGlass snapshot: $1.47 billion, including $1.31 billion in longs, and 175,299 traders. The reports give different totals, and the supplied evidence does not explain the gap. The Block quoted Laevitas’s Rick Maeda, who linked part of the cascade to traders trying to catch a reversal and thin bids after the week’s CPI data.
The Crypto Fear & Greed Index stood at 20, or Extreme Fear, on November 13. It measures sentiment, not future price direction. The Block reported $1.47 billion in crypto liquidations over the preceding 24 hours in its November 13 market report.
Fast market moves can expose leveraged traders to liquidation and venue risks.
The supplied reporting says Nvidia is expected to report quarterly earnings on November 17. It provides no earnings forecasts, so no outcome can be inferred.
U.Today’s $9.51 billion aggregate and the Hyperliquid record describe trading activity, not net money inflows or trader profits. When comparing reports, distinguish volume from liquidations and check the venue, contract and measurement period.
U.Today reported liquidations among leveraged traders during sharp price moves. The differences between liquidation snapshots are another reason to avoid treating one ranking as definitive.
It is reported daily trading volume for Hyperliquid’s NVDA-USDC perpetual contract on November 13, 2026. It is not the amount liquidated or the amount traders lost.
U.Today’s figures put Nvidia above XRP, but a CoinGlass table checked on November 13 showed $12.16 million for NVDA and $15.48 million for XRP. The reports don’t explain the difference.
Nvidia disclosed that its board accepted his resignation as president, CEO and director, effective immediately. The supplied transition announcement and SEC filing don’t state a reason.
