The post Why Whales Are Suddenly Rushing to Bitcoin Hyper’s $19.4M Presale & Why It’s Time to Buy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Whales are once again rushing to buy up Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) ahead of the end of its presale. The heyday of cheap $BTC is well and truly over – Bitcoin is now an industry-defining asset for crypto. It’s currently trading at around $116K after a recent all-time high of $124K, putting its market cap at around $2.3T. Bitcoin looks geared to only grow, but that comes with its own set of issues for the network. Bitcoin has a scalability problem. The blockchain itself can only handle around seven transactions per second (TPS). So, the more users that buy into $BTC, the more competition there is for those transaction slots, turning what should be a 10 minute transaction time into over an hour or more. That’s why the Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) developers are building a high-speed Layer-2 project to take the pressure off the Bitcoin network. Why is Bitcoin so Slow? Part of Bitcoin’s slow processing speed is by design. The quickest time frame for a Bitcoin transaction to process is around seven minutes, which is how long it takes for blocks to be added to the blockchain. Each block has a fixed cap on file size, so there’s a limit on how many transactions Bitcoin can process at once. For long-term investors, BTC’s slow TPS isn’t an issue. If you intend to hold Bitcoin for months or years, an extra hour or so won’t make a difference in return for rock-solid security guarantees. You’re more interested in the transactions being fully authoritative, which is what Bitcoin offers. Source: Serokell But for Web3 adopters, it’s a very different story. The slow transaction speeds mean Bitcoin is unfeasible to use for web applications when Ethereum (119 TPS) and Solana (65K TPS) are more viable alternatives. It’s even worse for retail – let’s be…
