Fundstrat’s Tom Lee told attendees at Binance Blockchain Week that he believes the worst leg of the recent crypto slump is likely over and that markets may be ready for a gradual recovery. He pointed to weakening selling pressure and growing underlying activity as reasons for cautious optimism.
Market Sentiment May Be Near A Turning Point
According to Lee, mood on the street turned darker after October, with many investors showing fatigue after steady losses. He said the current selling looks closer to exhaustion than to the start of another major decline. Trading desks have cut back. Volume has thinned. Sentiment is low. Lee argued that often, when pessimism peaks, conditions for a reversal begin to form.
Bitcoin Drawdowns Are Not Uncommon
Based on reports, Bitcoin has fallen about 36% from its all-time high in the recent retreat. That size of drop has happened in prior cycles, including 2017 and 2021, and has been followed by rallies that reached new records.
“Crypto prices likely bottomed. The best years of growth are still ahead: there is 200x adoption to come.” – Tom Lee, Chairman of Bitmine pic.twitter.com/fPWbWdaosO
Lee pointed to long-term returns for bitcoin and ether compared with some traditional assets over the last decade, saying crypto’s gains were larger. He used that history to support the idea that patient holders have been rewarded after past stress.
Tokenization Could Be A Major Story In 2026
Lee also presented tokenization as a key theme for the future. He said large institutions are preparing to move more financial products on-chain and that, if real estate joins the shift, close to a quadrillion dollars in assets could eventually be tokenized.
Stablecoins were cited as an early example of why tokenized instruments can attract demand. He suggested that a broader institutional push could add steady interest to the market over time.
BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF Was Highlighted As A Signal
Reports have disclosed that BlackRock’s bitcoin ETF has become one of the firm’s top fee-earning products, a fact Lee used to show growing involvement from legacy finance. That kind of institutional participation, he argued, points to deeper engagement from big players who were previously on the sidelines.
Adoption Gap Suggests Large Upside
According to Lee, only 4.4 million bitcoin wallets hold more than $10,000 in BTC, while nearly 900 million people globally have more than $10,000 in retirement savings.
He said that gap shows how early the market still is and argued that if just a fraction of those savers put money into bitcoin, adoption could expand by as much as 200 times. The figure is speculative, he acknowledged, but he used it to show the potential scale for future demand.
What This Means For Investors Now
Lee questioned whether the old four-year cycle should be used as a strict guide. He suggested recent moves were driven more by de-leveraging and structural shifts than by the halving rhythm that shaped earlier cycles.

XRP ETFs are on the verge of hitting a significant milestone, with total Assets Under Management (AUM) approaching the $1 billion milestone. Since the launch of its ETF last month, hundreds of millions of dollars have been flowing in daily, making XRP the most successful new ETF entrant of 2025.
XRP ETFs Close In On $1 Billion
XRP ETFs have continued to experience skyrocketing growth and institutional demand, now rapidly closing in on the $1 billion inflow milestone. Over the past two weeks, all five XRP ETFs have recorded over $984.54 million in cumulative net inflows, just $15.46 million away from $1 billion. This explosive, accelerated growth has effectively solidified XRP’s position as the third-largest crypto ETF, behind Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Data from Sosovalue reports 15 consecutive days of positive flow, with the XRP ETF recording its highest single-day inflow on November 14 at $243.05 million. Over the last two weeks, all five XRP ETFs, including REX-Osprey, have seen notable inflows, reflecting growing institutional interest and demand.
According to crypto enthusiast @NADZOE93 on X, XRP has become the third cryptocurrency ever to surpass the $800 million ETF inflow threshold. She noted that while Spot Bitcoin ETFs reached this cap in just two days after their launch, Ethereum ETFs took 95 days. This officially positions XRP as the second-fastest crypto to hit the $800 million inflow mark.
Notably, strong inflows in the XRP ETF began on November 13 with the launch of Canary Capitals XRPC. A week later, Bitwise introduced its own XRP ETF, followed shortly by Grayscale and Franklin Templeton debuting their funds. Since then, investments have continued to pour in, with $26.17 million flowing in just yesterday alone, bringing the total to $887.12 million after 15 days of positive flow.
Crypto market analyst Neil Tolbert shared additional insights on the XRP ETF performance on X this week. He noted that five spot XRP ETFs are currently trading, with a combined $995 million in Assets Under Management. Canary Capital’s XRPC stands at the top of the market with $358.88 million, followed by Grayscale’s GXRP with $211.07 million, Bitwise’s ETF at $184.87 million, Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ at $132.3 million, and REX-Osprey at $108 million.
Tolbert has stated that more ETFs are reportedly in the pipeline, with institutional demand set to grow as traditional finance takes notice of XRP. With the race to a $1 billion inflow milestone heating up, XRP ETFs have already surpassed those of Solana and Dogecoin.
Institutions Accumulate Over 400 Million XRP Through ETFs
Institutional demand for XRP is reaching new heights as data from ETF tracker XRP Insights show that a whopping 425.76 million tokens have been officially locked. This surge in accumulation comes as the five currently launched XRP ETFs collectively reach $984.54 million in AUM.
This large amount of XRP held in ETFs shows how quickly institutions are adopting, as investors increasingly seek regulated, transparent ways to gain exposure to cryptocurrencies. Analysts have also warned that if ETFs continue to absorb XRP at such a rapid pace, it could trigger a supply shock as the number of tokens in circulation declines.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust has logged its longest stretch of weekly withdrawals since the fund launched in January 2024, marking a sharp turn in institutional sentiment toward Bitcoin even as prices steady.
Key Takeaways:
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust has entered its longest outflow streak to date, with over $2.7 billion withdrawn in five weeks.
The reversal follows October’s sharp crypto-market liquidation, which erased more than $1 trillion in value and halted IBIT’s months of steady inflows.
Analysts warn the trend signals weakening institutional appetite.
Redemptions continued on Thursday with an additional $113 million, putting the ETF on track for a sixth consecutive week of outflows.
IBIT Faces Reversal as Crypto Wipeout Ends Months of Steady Inflows
IBIT, which manages more than $71 billion in assets, has been the flagship vehicle for traditional investors seeking regulated exposure to Bitcoin.
However, flows have reversed direction since early October, when a violent liquidation across crypto markets triggered a sell-off that erased more than $1 trillion in digital-asset value.
The shift stands in contrast to the steady inflows that helped propel Bitcoin higher earlier in the year.
Last week, speaking in São Paulo, BlackRock business development director Cristiano Castro said the company’s Bitcoin ETFs had become one of its strongest revenue engines, calling their rapid ascent “a big surprise” as investor allocations surged throughout the year.
Castro also downplayed outflow concerns, noting that “ETFs are very liquid and powerful instruments.”
“What we’ve been seeing is perfectly normal; any asset that starts to experience compression usually has this effect, especially in an instrument that is heavily controlled by retail investors,” he added.
Bitcoin has clawed back some losses this week, but analysts say ETF flows paint a clearer picture of institutional caution.
In a recent report, Glassnode wrote that the outflow streak “marks a clear reversal from the persistent inflow regime that supported price earlier in the year, and reflects a cooling of new capital allocation into the asset.”
The firm noted that investor positioning has become more defensive as volatility and funding pressure remain elevated.
Despite the turbulence, Bitcoin traded around $92,000 in London on Friday morning, still down 27% from its October peak.
Spot Chainlink ETF Pulls $41M on First Day
As reported, Grayscale’s first US spot exchange-traded fund tied to Chainlink opened with solid demand, adding another data point to the debate over whether appetite for altcoins can survive a cooling crypto market.
The figures placed Chainlink among the stronger ETF launches this year and suggested that, at least for some investors, regulated vehicles remain the preferred route into higher-risk digital assets.
The new Chainlink ETF comes amid the rollout of a wave of new altcoin ETFs.
Over the past month, issuers have launched products tied to Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin, with more XRP and Dogecoin funds set to list next week.
The Canary Capital XRP ETF (XRPC) debuted with $58 million in net inflows, the highest opening-day haul for any ETF this year, edging out the Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL), which launched with $57 million.
As institutional demand intensifies and the crypto market recovers, US spot XRP Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) continue to lead the sector with a 13-day streak and over $200 million in positive net flows this week, outshining Solana (SOL) ETFs, which recorded their third day of outflows in seven days.
XRP Funds Lead Crypto ETF Inflows
Spot XRP exchange-traded funds have extended their record-breaking streak after registering their thirteenth consecutive day of positive net flows, with $50.27 million in inflows on December 3.
The investment products have seen a remarkable performance since the launch of Canary Capital’s XRPC, the first single-token XRP spot ETF, on November 13, positioning the funds as the fastest-growing altcoin-based category.
Notably, XRPC surpassed all initial expectations and debuted on Nasdaq with a total volume of $58 million, recording around $357.54 million in positive net flows in 13 days. Last week, the second group of XRP funds went live, becoming the largest US ETF launches of 2025 with over $60 million in net inflows each during their first day.
Moreover, the category, led by Grayscale’s GXRP and Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ, surpassed other major ETFs in single-day inflows, including those based on the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, Solana, Bitcoin (BTC), and Ether (ETH).
Amid this week’s market recovery, XRP ETFs saw $89.65 million on Monday, $67.7 million the following day, and an additional $50.27 million on Wednesday, for a cumulative net inflow of $207.66 million during the first three days of December.
As a result, the leading category surpassed both Bitcoin ETFs’ $52.4 million and Ethereum ETFs’ $51.3 million positive net flows, respectively, during the same three-day period.
With a total of $874.28 million in inflows in 13 days, spot XRP ETFs have surpassed the $618.62 million total inflows of SOL ETFs, which held the record among the second wave of altcoin-based investment products.
Solana ETFs Demand Loses Steam
While XRP ETFs take the spotlight, Solana funds’ momentum has slowed, seeing their largest days of outflows this week. According to SoSovalue data, the investment products recorded $32.9 million in outflows on December 3, marking their third negative net flows day since the category debuted on October 28.
Despite pulling out positive net flows, Bitwise’s BSOL, Fidelity’s FSOL, and Grayscale’s GSOL were unable to absorb 21Shares’ TSOL $41.8 million in outflows. This performance also marks the fourth negative day for TSOL over the past week.
As reported by NewsBTC, Solana ETFs experienced a record performance in November despite the market correction, with $613 million in inflows during their 22 consecutive day positive streak.
However, the remarkable streak ended a week ago when TSOL registered negative net flows for the first time, and the category was unable to absorb them, recording outflows of $8.1 million.
SOL-based investment products started December with outflows worth $13.5 million, which were followed by strong inflows worth $45.77 million on Tuesday. On December 3, the funds registered $32.19 million in outflows, amounting to a negative net flow of $700,000 for the first half of the week, despite the altcoin’s recent price recovery.
Grayscale’s first US spot exchange-traded fund tied to Chainlink opened with solid demand, adding another data point to the debate over whether appetite for altcoins can survive a cooling crypto market.
Key Takeaways:
Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas says the Chainlink ETF opened with $41M in inflows and $13M in volume.
The debut beat Solana’s launch, but trailed XRP’s $243M Day-1 inflow reported by SosoValue.
ETF analyst James Seyffart cautioned it wasn’t a blockbuster.
Despite a pullback across major tokens in recent weeks, the new fund attracted sizable capital on its first trading day.
Chainlink ETF Debut Draws $41M, Signaling Demand for Regulated Altcoins
According to Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, the product ended its debut session with $41 million in net inflows and about $13 million in trading volume.
The figures placed Chainlink among the stronger ETF launches this year and suggested that, at least for some investors, regulated vehicles remain the preferred route into higher-risk digital assets.
The showing stands well above the opening day for the Solana ETF, which recorded just $8.2 million in volume based on data from Farside Investors.
Still, the XRP ETF remains the category’s heavyweight, registering $243 million in first-day inflows, according to SosoValue.
Even so, analysts urged restraint. James Seyffart said the launch was not a “blockbuster,” though he noted that the fund quickly reached about $64 million in assets under management, including an $18 million seed allocation.
“Chainlink shows that less liquid products can still attract attention in an ETF wrapper,” he wrote, pointing to the role exchange-traded funds can play in widening market access.
So, $GLNK took in ~$42 million on day 1. Not "blockbuster" success but very good for a new launch. Volume was strong. The fund currently sits at $64 million in assets. Chainlink showing that longer tail assets can find success in the ETF wrapper too. https://t.co/CgVCxlykGr
For Chainlink itself, the debut offered little immediate relief. The LINK token is up nearly 10% over the past week but remains down more than 39% over the past year, according to price data cited by Cointelegraph.
Chainlink’s appeal lies in its infrastructure role. The network supplies on-chain applications with external data, enabling price feeds, cross-chain transfers and tokenized assets to function reliably.
As demand for decentralized finance and real-world asset tokenization grows, investors appear willing to give even second-tier tokens a closer look.
New Altcoin ETFs Steal Spotlight as Bitcoin Funds Struggle
The new Chainlink ETF comes amid the rollout of a wave of new altcoin ETFs.
Over the past month, issuers have launched products tied to Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin, with more XRP and Dogecoin funds set to list next week.
The Canary Capital XRP ETF (XRPC) debuted with $58 million in net inflows, the highest opening-day haul for any ETF this year, edging out the Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL), which launched with $57 million.
BSOL has quickly become one of the early success stories of 2025, accumulating over $660 million in assets within three weeks and avoiding a single day of outflows.
As reported, the New York Stock Exchange has approved the listing of Grayscale’s XRP and Dogecoin exchange-traded funds, clearing both products to begin trading on Monday.
NYSE Arca, the exchange’s ETF-focused subsidiary, filed certifications on Friday confirming the listing and registration of the Grayscale XRP Trust ETF Shares and the Grayscale Dogecoin Trust ETF Shares under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Bitwise Asset Management has also unveiled the Bitwise Dogecoin ETF as investor appetite for altcoin exposure continues to increase.
A sharp rise in crypto liquidations is sending a louder message of how some traders are using more leverage in recent months.
Average daily wipeouts have jumped from roughly $28 million in long bets and $15 million in shorts during the last cycle to about $68 million long and $45 million short in the current cycle, according to a new Glassnode and Fasanara report. That shift has made single sell-offs much more violent.
Early Black Friday Shock
Reports have disclosed that Oct. 10 was the clearest sign of the change. On that day, more than $640 million per hour in long positions were liquidated as Bitcoin plunged from $121,000 to $102,000.
Open interest fell about 22% in less than 12 hours, sliding from close to $50 billion to $39 billion. Traders felt the move fast. Positions were closed out on a scale Glassnode called one of the sharpest deleveraging events in Bitcoin’s history.
Futures Activity Hits Records
Futures markets have swelled. Open interest climbed to a record $68 billion and daily futures turnover topped $69 billion in mid-October.
Perpetual contracts now account for more than 90% of that activity, which concentrates risk in instruments that reset continuously.
Average daily futures wipeouts rising to $68 million long and $45 million short shows the costs when big swings occur.
Spot Trading Doubles
Based on reports, spot trading has also become more active. Bitcoin’s spot volume has climbed into an $8 billion to $22 billion daily range, roughly double what was seen in the prior cycle.
During the Oct. 10 crash, hourly spot volume spiked to $7.3 billion, with many traders stepping in to buy the dip rather than run for the exits. That flow has helped shift where price discovery happens.
Capital Flows And Market Share
Monthly inflows into Bitcoin have varied from $40 billion to $190 billion, pushing realized market capitalization to a record $1.1 trillion.
Roughly $730 billion has flowed into the network since the November 2022 low — more than all previous cycles combined.
As a result, Bitcoin’s share of overall crypto market cap rose from 38% in late 2022 to 58% today, based on the report’s figures.
Bitcoin As Settlement Rail
Meanwhile, there’s another striking stat: over the past 90 days the Bitcoin network processed nearly $7 trillion in transfers. That throughput exceeded what major card networks handled in the same window.
This has been cited as a reason some participants view Bitcoin not just as a store of value, but as an increasingly important settlement rail.
Bitcoin Price Action
At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $93,165, up 6.5% and nearly 7% in the daily and weekly timeframes.

SEC has moved to block the launch of highly leveraged ETFs designed to deliver three to five times the daily performance of stocks and cryptocurrencies.
21 straight days of ETF inflows could not stop Solana from sliding toward a new yearly low, hitting 127 dollars on December 2. So the real question becomes: if inflows could not save it, what happens on the outflow days?
Solana ETFs saw a notable outflow of $8.10 million on November 26, the first since they launched on October 28. Then it happened again on the first day of December, this time totaling more than $13.5 million in outflows.
The following day, Solana bounced back with one of its biggest inflow days yet, pulling in more than $45 million. This basically means that the outflows are tiny compared to the inflows, and this growing institutional interest in Solana shouldn’t be ignored.
Since launching, SOL ETFs have brought in more than $650 million in net inflows. During that same period, investors pulled more than 3 billion from Bitcoin ETFs and over 1 billion from Ethereum ETFs. That kind of contrast makes Solana look like one of the strongest bets in crypto for the coming months.
Solana Price Prediction: Why $127 Dip Could Have Been A Gift
Solana is currently sitting around $141 and is once again trying to retest the $144 level, which turned into one of November’s toughest resistance zones. SOL hit this level multiple times already and has not managed to break through even once.
If the price can finally close above $144 with strength, the SOL/USDT pair could push toward $160, and from there, a revisit of the $170 area becomes possible.
If it fails again, though, we could see it drop back toward the $120 zone before going even lower, and that is the last scenario SOL bulls want to watch play out.
Could Bitcoin Hyper Compete With Solana?
While Solana wrestles with heavy volatility, failed breakouts, and a market that cannot decide whether to punish or reward its ETF flows, one project is managing to push forward with momentum that is actually holding up even in the chop.
That project is Bitcoin Hyper, and it is quietly becoming one of the strongest early-cycle plays of 2025.
Bitcoin Hyper is building a high-speed Bitcoin Layer 2 powered by the Solana Virtual Machine, giving it Solana-level performance while still settling back to Bitcoin for actual security. It is the mix traders are rotating into right now: fast, scalable, and backed by Bitcoin’s base layer instead of relying on unstable L1s.
And the numbers explain why confidence is rising. The presale has already raised more than $28.9 million, which is massive considering how shaky the market has been. Early buyers have not slowed down at all, and staking rewards still sit at a heavy 40% APY, making it one of the strongest yield opportunities tied to the Bitcoin ecosystem.
If the market rotates back into high efficiency ecosystems, Bitcoin Hyper does not just have momentum… it has timing.
U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded their fifth straight day of inflows today as BTC recovered to nearly $94,000, its highest level in nearly two weeks. According to data from SoSoValue, the 12 spot Bitcoin ETFs logged $58.5 million in…
Oslabujúci dolár, očakávané zníženie úrokových sadzieb americkým Fedom a rastúca aktivita na spotových ETF fondoch formujú nové podmienky pre decembrový trh. Bitcoin sa opäť obchoduje nad úrovňou 92 000 $ a aj altcoiny naznačujú zmenu trhovej dynamiky. Je december vhodným časom na nákup?
Cena Bitcoinu stúpla o viac ako 6 % za posledný týždeň
Bitcoin sa dnes obchoduje za 92 981 $. V priebehu posledných 7 dní posilnil o 6,15 % a zotavil časť novembrových strát, ktoré patrili k najvýraznejším od roku 2021. Nárast objemov v spotových ETF, najmä po tom, čo Vanguard zrušil obmedzenie obchodovania s Bitcoin ETF, podporil nový prílev kapitálu do trhu.
Len samotný fond IBIT spoločnosti BlackRock dosiahol miliardové objemy už v prvých minútach obchodovania po otvorení amerického trhu.

Prelomenie hranice 93 000 dolárov by podľa analytikov Glassnode mohlo vyvolať krátkodobý short squeeze, ktorý by cenu vystrelil smerom k 95-100 tisíc $. Zároveň platí, že pokiaľ Bitcoin zostane nad úrovňou 80 tisíc $, trh si udrží býčí výhľad. Makro faktorom dominuje očakávanie, že Fed už budúci týždeň pristúpi k zníženiu sadzieb, ktoré tradične podporuje rizikové aktíva vrátane kryptomien.
Euro posilňuje v očakávaní rozhodnutia americkej centrálnej banky. Dolár oslabil tento rok o takmer 7 %
Euro v úvode decembra posilňuje a prelomilo svoj 50-dňový kĺzavý priemer po tom, čo inflácia v eurozóne mierne prekonala očakávania. Spoločná mena sa aktuálne obchoduje pri úrovni 1,1640 dolára a smeruje k najlepšiemu ročnému výkonu od roku 2017. Trh tak reaguje na kombináciu priaznivých európskych makrodát a slabnúceho amerického dolára, ktorý v tomto roku stratil takmer 7 % hodnoty na indexe DXY.
Investori sa zároveň pripravujú na zasadnutie Federálneho rezervného systému, ktorý sa uskutoční už budúci týždeň. Podľa údajov platformy Polymarket vyskočila pravdepodobnosť, že Fed pristúpi k ďalšiemu zníženiu sadzieb až 93 %.
Práve toto očakávanie patrí medzi hlavné dôvody oslabenia dolára. Americká mena sa totiž stáva menej atraktívnou v prostredí, kde sa úrokový diferenciál medzi USA a ostatnými ekonomikami rýchlo zužuje. Odborníci upozorňujú, že aj malé náznaky holubičej rétoriky Fedu by mohli spôsobiť ďalší pokles dolára v druhej polovici decembra.
Zdroj: tradingview.com
Naopak, Európska centrálna banka neplánuje bezprostredné znižovanie sadzieb a trhy započítavajú iba približne 25 % pravdepodobnosť uvoľnenia menovej politiky v roku 2026. Tento kontrast medzi Fedom a ECB hrá v prospech eura, ktoré zostáva podporované stabilnou politikou ECB a slabnúcou americkou menou.
Makro pohyby na devízových trhoch tak vytvárajú prostredie priaznivé pre rizikové aktíva vrátane kryptomien. Slabší dolár totiž historicky podporuje dopyt po Bitcoine, altcoinoch a ďalších volatilnejších aktívach.
Altcoiny naznačujú budúci rast. Ethereum si polepšilo o 9 %
Popri Bitcoine sa nálada zlepšuje aj v segmentealtcoinov. Celková trhová kapitalizácia kryptomien stúpla na 3,14 bilióna dolárov, čo predstavuje 6,84 % denný nárast. A práve altcoiny ťahajú značnú časť tohto impulzu. Ethereum (ETH) vzrástlo za posledných 24 hodín o 8,80 % a jeho cena sa drží nad 3 052 dolármi. Rast podporuje návrat likvidity na trh a klesajúca dominancia Bitcoinu, ktorá vytvára priestor pre širšiu altcoinovú rally.

XRP taktiež potvrdzuje posilnenie sentimentu. S 8,27 % denným nárastom patrí medzi najvýkonnejšie veľké altcoiny, pričom jeho trhová kapitalizácia presiahla už 131,6 miliardy dolárov. Súčasne rastie aj dopyt po XRP ETF fondoch, ktoré pritiahli tento týždeň už viac ako 157 miliónov dolárov.
Súčasne, natívna kryptomena populárneho blockchainu pre meme coiny Solana (SOL), si pripísala za posledný deň 12 %. Celkovo si tak polepšila o takmer 4 % za týždeň. Záujem investorov podporuje vysoká aktivita v DeFi a rastúce množstvo nových aplikácií v jej ekosystéme.

Stablecoin Tether (USDT) zostáva najväčším zdrojom likvidity na trhu, čo je viditeľné z vysokého 24-hodinového objemu 128,2 miliardy dolárov Ide o jasný signál, že obchodníci aktívne rotujú kapitál medzi hlavnými altcoinmi. Súčasné trhové ukazovatele vytvárajú konzistentný obraz prostredia, v ktorom sa altcoiny presadzujú čoraz výraznejšie.
Rastový impulz v segmente altcoinov zároveň vytvára priaznivé podmienky pre nové kryptomeny, ktoré práve v tomto období vstupujú na trh. Investori po mesiacoch opatrnosti opäť rozširujú expozíciu voči projektom s vyšším potenciálom, čo zvyšuje záujem o kvalitné predpredaje. V tejto skupine aktuálne dominuje projekt Bitcoin Hyper, ktorý počas prebiehajúceho predpredaja už získal viac než 28 miliónov dolárov.
Layer 2 architektúra Bitcoin Hyper prináša pre BTC novú úroveň využitia
Základom projektu Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) je snaha prepojiť vysokú bezpečnosť Bitcoinovej siete s výkonnosťou moderných blockchainových architektúr. HyperChain používa Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) ako výpočtovú vrstvu, no finálne osadenie transakcií sa rieši na Bitcoinovom Layer 1.
V praxi to znamená, že DeFi aplikácie môžu využívať nízke poplatky a vysoké TPS, kým Bitcoin zostáva konečnou autoritou pre zúčtovanie. Súčasťou riešenia je aj mechanizmus canonical bridge, v ktorom sa BTC uzamkne na základnej vrstve a jeho zabalená verzia sa následne používa v prostredí Bitcoin Hyper. Tým sa otvára priestor pre reálne ekonomické aktivity, ktoré Bitcoin doteraz nepodporoval.

Natívny token HYPER zohráva v ekosystéme ústrednú úlohu. Držitelia ho využijú ako:
platidlo na úhradu transakčných poplatkov
zdroj pasívnych príjmov za staking (aktuálne ponúka 40 % APY)
hlasovacie právo pri rozhodovaní o budúcom vývoji ekosystému v rámci DAO
investičný nástroj na zhodnotenie kapitálu v trhovom prostredí
Aktuálna cena kryptomeny HYPER v predpredaji je 0,013365 $, pričom do uzavretia predpredaja zostáva už len niekoľko dní. Silný záujem retailových investorov dopĺňajú aj výrazné kapitálové vstupy zo strany veľrýb, čo zvyšuje dôveru v dlhodobejšiu víziu projektu.
Pre mnohých investorov predstavuje Bitcoin Hyper riešenie, ktoré môže Bitcoinu priniesť funkcionalitu, aká mu doteraz chýbala. Nová Layer-2 vrstva umožňuje obchodníkom aj vývojárom využívať BTC v moderných decentralizovaných aplikáciách, pokročilých DeFi riešeniach, ekosystémoch založených na meme tokenoch či v rámci smart kontraktov.
Tvorcovia projektu zároveň stavili na výraznú vizuálnu identitu, ktorá pracuje s hravým a virálnym potenciálom značky. Novú sieť reprezentuje postava Hyper, využívaná v meme formáte s estetikou superhrdinu, ktorá sprevádza jednotlivé fázy vývoja projektu.
Tento prístup podporuje aktívnu a angažovanú komunitu, uľahčuje odlíšenie od ostatných projektov a prispieva k rýchlemu budovaniu povedomia ešte pred uvedením tokenu na trh.
Token nájdete na domovskej stránke projektu a tiež priamo v aplikácii kryptopeňaženky Best Wallet. Nákupný widget akceptuje kryptomeny ETH, BNB, USDT a tiež platbu kartou.
21Shares has taken another step toward launching a spot Dogecoin exchange-traded fund in the U.S., filing an amendment that reveals the fund’s fee structure and adds fresh operational details. In a new development, ETF issuer 21Shares is advancing its push…
Bitcoin jumped back above key levels on Wednesday, with prices climbing past $93,000 after dipping to $84,400 earlier this month.
The move followed a sharp sell-off that removed about $8,000 from the price late over the weekend, and traders pushed the coin to a 24-hour peak of $93,910 on Coingecko.
Bitcoin Climbs Above Key Levels
According to MN Fund founder Michaël van de Poppe, regaining ground above $93,000 is important for momentum. He said that if the price holds and breaks higher, a run toward $100,000 becomes more likely.
Other analysts echoed the call: Nick Ruck of LVRG Research pointed to macro factors and fresh ETF flows as drivers that could help Bitcoin test six figures in the coming months.
This is what you’d want to see. $BTC coming back up again, after a weird move down on the 1st of this month.
Now, again, breaking the $92K area is crucial.
If that breaks, then I’m sure we’ll start to see a new all-time high and a test at $100K.
Reports have disclosed that ETF-related trading helped lift the market. BlackRock’s IBIT recorded over $1.8 billion in volume within two hours after Vanguard reversed a previous stance, and total spot Bitcoin ETF volume topped $5.1 billion on the day.
Market stats showed the broader crypto capitalization rose close to 7% to $3.13 trillion, with BTC dominance climbing to nearly 60%. Bitcoin itself jumped by about 8% after the US market opened, giving larger markets a clear lift.
Support Zone Holds Focus
Analysts had been watching the $86,000 to $88,000 band as a critical area of support. Based on reports from active market watchers, that range had been tested dozens of times in recent months and holding above it signaled reduced selling pressure. One analyst argued that a break below would likely lead some big players to change tack, moving from buying to selling behavior.
Liquidations And Net Inflows Changed The Day
Other market observers reported heavy turnover in derivatives and spot markets: over $360 billion in short positions were liquidated, while more than $160 billion was reportedly added back into crypto markets within a 24-hour span. Those figures, if accurate, helped explain the speed of the rebound and the large single-day gains.
What Comes Next For Prices
Short-term traders will watch how Bitcoin behaves around $92,000 and whether it can hold above the $86,000–$88,000 floor. Some commentators warned that sudden ETF-driven demand can cause sharp spikes that may not last.
Others pointed to possible policy shifts, such as renewed talk of US interest-rate cuts, as reasons why money might flow into major crypto assets in the months ahead.
For now, prices sit a little above $92,700 at the time of writing. The market is clearly volatile. Investors and traders will likely need to balance the bullish signs against the risk that a fresh round of selling could wipe gains quickly.

Franklin Templeton has taken a significant step that is already drawing attention across the crypto market. The asset-management giant has filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to broaden its Franklin Crypto Index ETF, confirming that Dogecoin will officially be added beginning December 1.
The expansion shifts Franklin Templeton’s product from a Bitcoin- and Ethereum-focused offering into a more diversified crypto basket that gives investors access to a broader range of digital assets through a single instrument. This comes just a few days after Franklin Templeton launched its Spot XRP fund.
Franklin Templeton Expands Into A Wider Multi-Asset ETF
The success of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs has encouraged major institutions to look beyond the top two cryptocurrencies and build products that cover a wider range of well-known digital assets. Franklin Templeton’s latest move follows that trend by reshaping its Franklin Crypto Index ETF into a more expansive portfolio that includes several leading altcoins, Dogecoin among them.
The revised structure takes effect on December 1 and shifts the ETF to a design that reflects the broader market rather than a two-asset concentration. Franklin Templeton acknowledged this change through an announcement on X, presenting an updated token lineup that now spans everything from large market-cap cryptocurrencies like Cardano, Solana, and XRP.
Even within that group, Dogecoin stands out, stepping further away from its reputation as a meme-based cryptocurrency and moving into a more institutionally recognized role.
Dogecoin Steps Into New Phase Of Institutional Exposure
Dogecoin’s inclusion in Franklin Templeton’s expanded ETF comes at a moment when the token is already experiencing increased attention from traditional finance. The first batch of Spot Dogecoin ETFs has only recently entered the market, and this is a milestone that would have been unthinkable a few years ago.
Early trading activity for these funds has been modest compared to the spectacular debuts once seen with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, but it is still too early to tell, as the market might still be determining how much institutional interest exists for a meme-origin asset wrapped in a regulated structure.
Several other issuers have filings in progress and are preparing for their own Dogecoin products to go live. Some are positioning themselves carefully to see how the first batch of ETFs performs. According to Bloomberg Senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, there are likely about 100 crypto-based ETFs waiting to be launched in the next six months.
Bitocin treasury companies continue to accumulate a significant amount of BTC despite current market conditions and now control around 5% of the total BTC supply. These companies are led by Michael Saylor’s Strategy and Metaplanet, which have recently raised fresh capital to buy the dip.
Bitcoin Treasury Companies Now Hold Over 1 Million In BTC
Bitcoin Treasuries data shows that the top 100 public Bitcoin treasury companies currently hold 1,058,929 BTC, while all public companies combined hold 1,061,697. Notably, Strategy is the largest public Bitcoin holder with 650,000 BTC. Michael Saylor’s company yesterday announced another 130 BTC purchase for $11.7 million.
Meanwhile, the second-largest Bitcoin treasury company is BTC miner MARA holdings, which holds 53,250 BTC. Tether-backed Twenty One Capital, Metaplanet, and Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company complete the top 5, with 43,514, 30,823, and 30,021 BTC, respectively. Meanwhile, companies like Coinbase, Bullish, and Trump Media are among the top 10 largest BTC treasury companies.
It is worth noting that these public companies account for only a part of the Bitcoin treasuries. Further data from Bitcoin Treasuries shows that there is currently 4 million BTC in treasuries as a whole, including the coins held by governments, private companies, exchanges, DeFi platforms, and ETFs.
BlackRock is currently the second-largest Bitcoin holder, only behind Satoshi Nakamoto. Strategy is third on the list, while Binance and the U.S. government complete the top 5, with BTC holdings of 628,868 and 323,588, respectively. The 4 million BTC held by these treasury companies as a group accounts for 19% of the total Bitcoin supply.
Bitcoin treasury companies such as Strategy and Metaplanet have raised new capital amid the recent crash to buy more BTC. Saylor’s company recently raised $836 million from its STRE offering, which it used to buy 8,178 BTC. Meanwhile, Metaplanet raised $130 million to expand its BTC treasury.
More Companies Set To Adopt Bitcoin
More Bitcoin treasury companies are set to emerge as $10 trillion asset manager, Vanguard, will start offering BTC ETFs from today. Notably, some companies gain BTC exposure through these ETFs rather than buying Bitcoin directly. On-chain analytics platform Arkham Intelligence revealed that the largest U.S. bank, JPMorgan, holds $300 million worth of BlackRock’s BTC ETF.
Meanwhile, it is worth mentioning that Bitcoin treasuries such as Strategy are coming under immense pressure amid the current market downtrend. Strategy’s CEO, Phong Le, admitted that they might have to sell Bitcoin as a last resort to fund dividend payments if their mNAV drops below 1x and they can no longer raise capital.
At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $87,000, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
BitMine Immersion Technologies has added over 7,000 ether for roughly $19.8 million to its stash that currently accounts for more than 3% of the flagship altcoin’s total supply. Data tracked by on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain on Dec. 2 shows that…
Vanguard Group will permit ETFs and mutual funds holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Solana to trade on its platform beginning Tuesday, marking a policy shift for the asset management firm.
