Crypto Giants Predict BTC to Hit $150K–250K – Bitcoin Hyper the Next 1000x Crypto?

Analysts foresee $BTC surging toward $150K–$250K this year, especially if whales start selling the #1 ￰1￱ that happens, on-chain activity and transaction demand is bound to ￰2￱ could make gas fees skyrocket and slow down confirmation times, making Bitcoin unsuitable for everyday ￰3￱ fear not: The Layer 2 solution Bitcoin Hyper is gearing up to handle the network’s scalability, speed, and ￰4￱ native token – $HYPER – might even be the next 1000x crypto. Analyst: Two Whale Moves Could Push $BTC to $150K According to Nakamoto CEO David Bailey, $BTC could jump to $150K if two crypto whales (major investors) sell the crypto ￰5￱ carry serious weight.

Recently, one major $BTC buyer dumped 24K $BTC worth $2.7B. Within minutes, the sale triggered a flash crash that wiped out $500M in leveraged ￰6￱ they cease to exert selling pressure, $BTC has a greater likelihood of achieving higher ￰7￱ Capital CEO Steven McClurg believes $BTC could reach $140K–$150K before the next bear ￰8￱ crypto titans are even more bullish on ￰9￱ BitMEX’s Arthur Hayes, for ￰10￱ predicts $BTC to hit as high as $250K before 2026 kicks off. $BTC is anticipated to ￰11￱ there’s a slight hitch: the Bitcoin network is notorious for congestion during bull runs. Thankfully, this is where Bitcoin Hyper steps ￰12￱ Hyper to Bring DeFi Access & Faster Speeds to Bitcoin Once launched this quarter, the Bitcoin Hyper Layer-2 aims to put an end to Bitcoin’s scalability woes for good.

It’ll leverage two powerful tools – a Canonical Bridge and the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) – to boost the network’s performance ￰13￱ Canonical Bridge will link Bitcoin’s base layer to Hyper’s Layer ￰14￱ so will enable you to deposit $BTC and wrap it for DeFi ￰15￱ $BTC means the crypto can be used in ecosystems where it normally can’t (like dApps, DEXs, and lending protocols), while keeping it pegged 1:1 and backed by the real ￰16￱ wrapped $BTC would count towards Bitcoin’s Total Value Locked, which currently stands at $7.917B. In comparison, Solana’s TVL is $11.624B, whereas Ethereum leads at $90.429B. Bitcoin Hyper has what it takes to close that gap by making Bitcoin an active force in ￰17￱ this, the bridge will batch transactions off-chain to slash transaction ￰18￱ now, Bitcoin processes 8.94 transactions per second (tps) , compared to Ethereum’s 18.73 tps.

Plus, its max throughput is just 7 tps versus Ethereum’s 119 tps, representing a 17x gap in ￰19￱ Hyper aims to drastically increase throughput and reduce fees, making Bitcoin much more scalable for everyday ￰20￱ SVM will also play a key role in propelling Bitcoin’s TVL and transaction speeds. It’ll bring smart contract execution to Solana-level speeds, allowing dApps, DeFi protocols, and even the best meme coins to run on the network easily and seamlessly. Additionally, it’ll help lower Bitcoin’s transaction fees, which currently average $0.93 – nearly double the amount of Ethereum’s $0.55. And all will be achieved without compromising the Bitcoin mainnet’s security, which is widely regarded as the most battle-tested and resilient in the entire blockchain ￰21￱ its Proof-of-Work (PoW) mechanism relies on a vast decentralized network and miners, it has never suffered a protocol-level ￰22￱ cherry on top?

Bitcoin Hyper’s native token – $HYPER – is designed for cross-chain compatibility with Bitcoin, Ethereum, and ￰23￱ helps it to drive liquidity and application flows across ecosystems. $HYPER also powers lower transaction fees in the Layer 2, offers staking rewards at a sizable 80% APY, and grants governance rights. A commendable 30% of its total token supply is also set aside for development. So, it’s no wonder that $HYPER has attracted $13.6M+ on presale since going live on May 16, ￰24￱ buyers have high hopes for the Layer-2 tech, as evidenced by a big player purchasing $11.2K worth of $HYPER just ￰25￱ $HYPER Presale for Possible 2,400%+ Gains With crypto bigwigs projecting $BTC to reach $150K–$250K, particularly if whale activity clears, Bitcoin bottlenecks could be tested yet ￰26￱ with Bitcoin Hyper launching soon, we need not worry about soaring fees, sluggish confirmations, or scalability limits holding the network ￰27￱ the Layer 2’s perks and support its development by purchasing $HYPER on presale for just $0.012845.

When the network officially goes live, the token’s predicted to jump to $0.32 , so now’s a favorable time to join for returns possibly exceeding 2,400%. We’re not financial ￰28￱ do your own research and never invest more than you’d be sad to ￰29￱ by Leah Waters, Bitcoinist – ￰0￱
