Bitcoin Hyper Presale Tops $31.2 Million, Signaling Shift to Scaling Infrastructure

Recent network stress is pushing capital from spot BTC into Layer 2 infrastructure.

Overview

  • Bitcoin Hyper reports more than $31.2 million raised in its presale, with tokens priced at $0.013675 and immediate staking after TGE plus a 7-day vesting period for presale participants.
  • On-chain data show whale accumulation of HYPER, including a single $500,000 purchase on January 15 and multiple six-figure transactions tracked on Etherscan.
  • The project says it will integrate the Solana Virtual Machine to deliver sub-second execution anchored to Bitcoin Layer 1, a technical approach presented by the team and not independently validated in these reports.
  • Market context features sharp Bitcoin swings and leveraged washouts, including reports of $1.5 billion to $2.2 billion in liquidations and recurring fee spikes that highlight base-layer throughput limits.
  • Institutional and infrastructure moves are reinforcing the rotation, with Galaxy Digital preparing a $100 million hedge fund, Tether releasing mining software and OS while recalibrating capital plans, and earlier reports noting bank and asset manager activity tied to crypto rails.
