Peter Brandt called altcoins posers, claiming that Bitcoin is the only real crypto in an X post that rallied the entire crypto community against him.
With a simple ‘Bitcoin is crypto and crypto is Bitcoin,’ Brandt upset everyone, causing people to jump in the comment section to defend stablecoins and protect Ethereum’s reputation.
Brandt is a known pro-Bitcoin advocate who believes that ‘the future may be denominated in Bitcoin,’ while warning against those who see Bitcoin as a quick-profit asset. Instead, he pushes for long-term investments in Bitcoin as the foundation of a new economic system.
Bitcoin is Seeing Increased Investor Trust
Peter Brandt isn’t the only Bitcoin supporter, as the asset enjoys increased trust among investors, especially at the institutional level.
Strategy is the first on the list with a Bitcoin reserve of 670,770 $BTC, followed by 280 other high-profile entities with growing Bitcoin reserves.
The wave of Bitcoin adoption, paired with game-changing pro-crypto regulations, like Trump’s GENIUS Act, and the more recent US-EU deal, creates the perfect environment for crypto to flourish. Bitcoin is the first to benefit.
The new tariff plan sets different values for the different players at the negotiating table, with the EU drawing the shorter stick with a 15% tariff plan. Mexico got 30%, Canada 35%, while Brazil will have to deal with a 50% burden.
The new tariff plan will go into effect starting August 1st.
More importantly, the US and China have agreed to a 90-day tariff pause, which could result in capital reallocations, benefiting Bitcoin as a risk asset in an increasingly more stable economy.
And what benefits does Bitcoin bring to the entire crypto market, especially projects directly related to the King coin?
One such project is Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), Bitcoin’s official Layer 2 upgrade.
Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) Pushes Bitcoin’s Performance to New Heights
Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) aims to solve Bitcoin’s subpar performance to increase transaction speed and lower on-chain fees.
The Canonical Bridge is Hyper’s most important addition to its toolset, ensuring seamless $BTC transfers between Bitcoin’s native layer and Hyper’s Layer 2. The Bridge achieves this by minting an equivalent number of tokens into the Layer 2 for users’ deposits.
The tokens are usable within the Hyper ecosystem and can return to the native Bitcoin layer whenever necessary.
The Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) is another invaluable addition, ensuring the ultra-fast, low-latency execution of DeFi apps and smart contracts.
These tools aim to push Bitcoin’s performance to modern-day standards, considering that Bitcoin’s 7 Transactions-Per-Second (TPS) cap is far below industry needs.
By comparison, Solana boasts 1,309 TPS with a maximum theoretical cap of 65,000 TPS.
Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) has been in presale since May 2025, bringing on board over $5.4M, making $HYPER one of the fastest-growing presales of 2025.
The project offers a dynamic APY of 187% for staking and a token price of $0.012425, which is plenty of incentive to join the presale as early as possible.
An additional incentive relates to the project’s long-term potential. Following successful post-launch implementation and widespread adoption, $HYPER could easily explode in the charts, especially in a bullish crypto context.

Is Bitcoin About to Go Bull?
While it’s too early, Bitcoin could pump to a new ATH, following its current consolidation phase around the $118K threshold.
More importantly, the US-EU trade deal could speed up the process and add more fuel to Bitcoin’s fire. Such a context would also benefit projects like Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), which promise to put the Bitcoin ecosystem into overdrive.
Don’t take this as financial advice. Do your own research (DYOR) and invest with caution.
