Bitcoin Hyper Raises $200K in 24 Hours to Smash $15M in Presale – Can It Repeat Bitcoin’s 227,000,000% Run?

 

In the last 24 hours alone, Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) has raised more than $200,000 in its presale, pushing total funding past $15 million.

Billed as Bitcoin’s fastest Layer-2 in development, Hyper’s funding success has been magnetic, and investors view it as a kind of rebirth for the top crypto. Many believe it could become the bullish catalyst for Bitcoin’s next major price chapter.

What captivates them is Hyper’s combination of Solana’s execution speed with Bitcoin’s settlement layer. That design has led some to draw direct comparisons between HYPER and BTC.

Many early investors are calling HYPER “Bitcoin 2.0” – seeing in it the second chance they missed with Bitcoin’s historic rise of 227,000,000%.

New buyers can still enter the current presale round at $0.012895 per token, though this price will increase in less than 35 hours.

Bitcoin Won’t Repeat Its Early Multiples, but HYPER Might

Since July 2010, when BTC traded for about a nickel, its climb to $114,000 today represents a staggering

And as wild as that sounds and as high as BTC is right now, many still believe the story isn’t over. In fact, prominent market voices like Fundstrat’s Tom Lee and BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes have both floated year-end price targets of $200,000 for Bitcoin.

Yet at current levels, that upside is somewhat limited – even if more institutions continue to climb aboard the crypto train. Because from today’s price, a move to $200,000 would mean less than a 2x gain.

What’s more, even in the boldest scenarios – say Bitcoin hit $1 million – the return would only be about 10x. Impressive, but nowhere near the once-in-a-lifetime 2,280,000x that early adopters enjoyed.

In other words, the ship for Bitcoin-level multiples has already sailed.

That’s why attention shifts to altcoins, especially when Bitcoin stalls like it has this September, because they provide the moonshot opportunity once exhibited by the top asset.

Now imagine having an altcoin that carries the same mechanisms that make BTC great, while at the same time making the entire network far more efficient and programmable – that’s what Bitcoin Hyper is.

Bitcoin Hyper is the Closest Thing to BTC

Bitcoin Hyper may be the closest altcoin today to match Bitcoin’s DNA. The reason is it creates a new avenue of demand for BTC itself.

Bitcoin’s demand so far comes from its role as a store of value – its hard-coded supply cap and resistance to inflation set it apart from fiat money that can be printed endlessly.

Bitcoin Hyper takes that foundation further. It is a Layer-2 ecosystem designed to be the fastest ever on Bitcoin, powered by the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM). Developers can not only build directly on Hyper but can also port Solana dApps with minimal changes thanks to SPL compatibility.

In practice, an app that runs on Solana can be adapted to Hyper and instantly tap into Bitcoin’s liquidity.

These dApps can cover every sector, such as DeFi protocols rivaling Ethereum’s, tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), NFTs, gaming, and more. But what sets Bitcoin Hyper apart is that apps don’t inherit Ethereum’s slower throughput or high costs.

Instead, they run at Solana speeds while anchoring back to Bitcoin’s base layer for settlement and security.

And in fact, the team’s latest update highlights this very point. Since Bitcoin doesn’t provide generalized smart contracts, anchoring a rollup requires new models. The team is developing ways to use commitments, state roots, and proof systems to periodically lock Hyper’s state to Bitcoin Layer-1.

The goal is simple but critical: keep Hyper moving at Solana-level speed, while ensuring Bitcoin remains the final arbiter of trust and neutrality.
