BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes has issued a bold Bitcoin price prediction, forecasting that BTC could surge to $200,000–$250,000 by the end of the year if the Federal Reserve and Treasury reopen liquidity taps in response to potential stock market corrections. Hayes attributes Bitcoin's recent drawdown to a dollar liquidity crunch, ETF outflows, and leveraged liquidations, contrasting with record stock indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100. He emphasizes that retail sentiment has flipped to 'extreme fear', while institutional capital remains poised for re-entry.
Simultaneously, Michael Saylor of MicroStrategy reaffirmed his commitment to Bitcoin, noting $6.1 billion in unrealized profits from its 649,870 BTC holdings, despite MSTR stock declining 41% and DAT stocks trading below their net Bitcoin value. This backdrop has fueled interest in Bitcoin-centric infrastructure, with Bitcoin Hyper emerging as a key player.
Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is a Bitcoin Layer 2 project that uses a Solana Virtual Machine-based execution layer and zero-knowledge proofs to enable fast, low-fee DeFi and payments for BTC. The project's public presale has raised over $28.3 million, with tokens priced at $0.013325 and staking yields around 41% during the presale phase. A whale purchase of over $500,000 in $HYPER highlights investor confidence, and the project aims for a potential 1,400% ROI by 2026 if mainnet launches and exchange listings proceed as planned.
