Monday 29 December 2025, Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER), a Layer-2 solution built to expand Bitcoin’s capabilities while still sticking to Bitcoin’s security model, has now raised $29.7 million in presale funding. Bitcoin Hyper’s setup keeps BTC at the center of how value moves, instead of pushing it somewhere on the side.
Bitcoin is hovering around $87,900, still more than 30% below its all-time high, with holiday liquidity keeping price action choppy. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen net outflows recently, and holiday season liquidity makes everything slower than usual. Also, last Friday roughly $30.3 billion in BTC options expired at 8:00 am UTC on 26 December 2025, and market is still digesting that.
While the main chain consolidates, Layer-2 tokens often end up outperforming. Instead of bypassing Bitcoin, Bitcoin Hyper is positioned as a high-performance Layer-2 that routes real BTC utility through its own system, not around it.
The project says its targeting a core gap in Bitcoin’s ecosystem. HYPER is meant to enable high-performance applications without sidelining BTC as the main asset. Right now, HYPER is priced at $0.013485, and the next presale stage is expected to begin in less than 48 hours at a higher price point. With development moving and funding accelerating, early access is starting to look pretty limited time.

Institutional Capital Floods Derivatives Market As Bitcoin Hyper Presale Approaches Final Stages
Former FTX US President Brett Harrison’s Architect Financial Technologies raised $35 million to build institutional-grade derivatives infrastructure. The round values the company at $187 million, showing how institutional capital keeps leaning into regulated and compliant trading infrastructure.
This move is happening alongside rising attention for utility-driven crypto projects like HYPER. That $35 million raise fits what we seen through 2025: institutions want production-grade systems, not just “cool ideas”.
Transaction capacity across major blockchain networks exceeded 3,400 transactions per second in 2025, basically matching NASDAQ’s peak processing capacity and showing crypto infra is crossing key thresholds.
Project Utilizes Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) As Execution Layer
Bitcoin Hyper utilizes the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) as its execution layer, enabling high-speed, low-cost transactions while final settlement remains anchored to Bitcoin’s base layer. This gives developers room to build apps with near-instant finality while still leaning on Bitcoin’s security guarantees.
A big part of the design is a canonical bridge that locks BTC on the base chain and represents it on the Layer-2, where it circulates as the main medium of exchange across applications. Unlike some Layer-2 models that pull activity away from the base asset, Bitcoin Hyper aims to route actual Bitcoin usage through its network.
The idea is to create utility-driven demand that compliments BTC’s store-of-value narrative.
The HYPER token serves as the gas token that powers transaction execution on the Layer-2.
It’s that special time of year. 🎄
As the year winds down, we just want to say thank you to every single one of the $HYPER fam. From late nights to big ideas, this community keeps pushing forward together. 💛
Wishing you and yours a happy holidays and a powerful start to the… pic.twitter.com/Nux2iZRHyv
