Whales Rush In As Bitcoin Hyper’s $14.6M Presale Becomes $BTC’s Ticket to Mainstream Success

Bitcoin Hyper’s $14.6M+ presale could be Bitcoin’s ticket to mainstream success once the project releases and implements its long-awaited ￰1￱ Hyper ($HYPER) is set to be Bitcoin’s official Layer-2, and plans to free Bitcoin from its performance limitation of just seven transactions per second (TPS). Little wonder, then, that whales have been sniffing around the $HYPER presale – this month has already seen a solid $50K whale buy. Hyper’s goal is to make transactions faster and cheaper within the Bitcoin ecosystem, turning the network into a more viable choice for institutional ￰2￱ includes high-traffic payment processors like Visa, which has a throughput of up to 65K ￰3￱ what exactly are Bitcoin’s problems?

Why The Bitcoin Network Is Inefficient And Sluggish Bitcoin’s primary problem is the performance limitation, currently capped at seven ￰4￱ means that the network can only process seven transactions per second before experiencing increased confirmation times and ￰5￱ of the low throughput, transactions fall into a queue list, with the system prioritizing larger transactions with higher ￰6￱ fee-based priority system increases the confirmation time to potentially multiple ￰7￱ all, it means Bitcoin can be slow, expensive, and overall ineffective, with the network often experiencing congestion during high-traffic ￰8￱ terms of performance, Bitcoin ranks 22nd on the list of the fastest ￰9￱ Ethereum – with a utilization rate that has dropped to 50.68% , below the long-term average of 56.81% – still ranks 18th.

Solana, on the other hand, is second to ICP only, with a real throughput of 1K TPS and a theoretical max of 65K . So, Bitcoin clearly needs to step up its game. However, Bitcoin Hyper isn’t the first attempt at fixing the ￰10￱ the Lightning Network Failed The Lightning Network is the most well-known failed attempt at boosting Bitcoin’s performance past its native ￰11￱ idea was similar to what Bitcoin Hyper is offering: faster and cheaper transactions without impacting the network’s security. Unfortunately, the Lightning Network fell short due to its poor implementation and lack of relevant ￰12￱ network came with multiple problems , including routing and path-finding failures, channel backup and recovery failure, and integration ￰13￱ the most impactful one related to the security aspect, as Lightning Network’s nodes need to remain online at all times to keep transactions ￰14￱ led to the Fraudulent Channel Close scam , causing people to lose their funds to a system ￰15￱ prevent that, the devs created Watchtowers with the goal of addressing this specific ￰16￱ the damage had already been done and investors lost their trust.

However, it’s not all doom and ￰17￱ Hyper’s Layer-2 is poised to take over and eliminate Bitcoin’s pain ￰18￱ it’s successful, $HYPER could become Bitcoin’s saving ￰19￱ Bitcoin Hyper Solves Bitcoin’s Issues Bitcoin Hyper relies on several tools – like the Canonical Bridge and the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) – to address Bitcoin’s core performance ￰20￱ Canonical Bridge will connect the Bitcoin network to the Hyper layer and relies on the Bitcoin Relay Program (BRP) to confirm incoming ￰21￱ drops confirmation times from hours to mere seconds, hitting multiple birds with one ￰22￱ fee-based priority system will also be gone, network fees will go down, and there’ll be no more risk of ￰23￱ the BRP confirms the transactions’ details, the Canonical Bridge will mint your $BTC onto the Hyper Layer-2 as wrapped $BTC.

There, you can swap, stake, buy NFTs, and interact with dApps and ￰24￱ at any time, you can withdraw your wrapped $BTC back to Bitcoin’s native ￰25￱ SVM, meanwhile, complements the system by enabling the ultra-fast execution of smart contracts and turning Bitcoin even faster and more performant than ￰26￱ SVM allows for higher throughput and scalability, bringing Solana’s performance into Bitcoin’s highly secure and reputable ecosystem. Hyper’s Presale Performance Bouyed By Whales The $HYPER presale has now reached $14.6M+, and with no signs of ￰27￱ addition to last week’s $50K whale buy, August also saw some significant whale activity, including $161.3K and $100.6K.

And as we head deeper into this month, there’s a good chance more whales will be circling the $HYPER ￰28￱ a current token price of $0.012885 – and staking at 75% APY – it’s growing at an accelerated ￰29￱ influx of investors is the result of the project’s long-term potential, extensive and transparent roadmap, and the hype behind the idea of a faster and cheaper Bitcoin ￰30￱ on these factors, there’s a good chance that $HYPER will see a post-launch boom, followed by a steady long-term ￰31￱ the end of the year, our price prediction for $HYPER puts the token at $0.32. By 2030, $HYPER could reach $1.50 or higher, especially if Bitcoin sees mainstream ￰32￱ reflects an ROI of 11,541%, which is enough to incentivize early adopters while the token still trades at its presale ￰33￱ to jump in?

Visit the official Bitcoin Hyper presale ￰34￱ You Buy Into the Hyper Hype? Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) promises to fix Bitcoin’s pain points and overtake the Lightning Network as Bitcoin’s primary Layer-2 solution, so it’s not surprising that whales are rushing ￰35￱ to whether you should invest or not – this depends on your risk tolerance and ￰36￱ if you do decide to invest, you should do it now while the $HYPER price is still low, which could change fast post-launch. So, read our guide on how to buy $HYPER and then to the official presale page to secure your ￰37￱ isn’t financial ￰38￱ do your own research and invest ￰39￱ by Bogdan Patru, Bitcoinist – ￰0￱
