Bitcoin Hyper Presale Tops $31 Million as Layer-2 Bets Build Through Volatility

Investors cite Bitcoin congestion plus recent liquidations as reasons to back faster execution layers.

Overview

  • Project dashboards report more than $31 million raised for Bitcoin Hyper, with on‑chain records showing large presale buys including a single $500,000 transaction on January 15.
  • Coverage describes the developing Layer 2 as integrating the Solana Virtual Machine for sub‑second execution anchored to Bitcoin, with no mainnet launch yet announced.
  • Presale tokenomics include staking available immediately after the token generation event and a short seven‑day vesting period for presale participants.
  • Recent market stress included reported leveraged liquidations of roughly $1.5–$2.2 billion and choppy spot action near $78,500, which commentators say is pushing capital toward scaling infrastructure.
  • Tether released open‑source mining libraries and a mining OS, ING aligned with Bitwise on regulated crypto rails, and India advanced e‑rupee cross‑border plans, reinforcing demand for higher‑throughput Bitcoin layers; Michael Burry separately warned of potential cross‑asset deleveraging tied to a Bitcoin drop.
