Institutional integration is reshaping the Web3 landscape as Stellar XLM registers a 40% weekly gain, breaking above the $0.20 threshold. The rally, driven by a major partnership with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), has triggered a broader market reaction, prompting some investors to rotate profits into emerging utility-driven infrastructure. Among the primary beneficiaries of this capital rotation is Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER), a Layer-2 scaling solution that has raised over $32.7 million in its ongoing presale.
This shift highlights a growing investor preference for projects that bridge traditional finance with public blockchains or solve critical scalability issues for major networks like Bitcoin.
Stellar’s price action picked up serious steam following the DTCC’s announcement of a collaboration with the Stellar Development Foundation. Scheduled for rollout in the first half of 2027, the initiative aims to bring tokenized versions of DTC-custodied assets—including stocks, ETFs, and U.S. Treasuries—onto the Stellar network. This move aligns with the DTCC’s multi-chain strategy to streamline settlement and improve cross-border asset mobility.

The market response was immediate. XLM’s 40% surge over the past seven days was accompanied by a significant spike in trading volume, pushing the total value of real-world assets (RWAs) on the Stellar network to approximately $1.82 billion. With established financial institutions like Franklin Templeton and WisdomTree already utilizing Stellar, the DTCC partnership further validates public blockchain infrastructure for institutional finance. However, as the token consolidates above $0.20, market participants are actively seeking high-conviction plays to reallocate gains.
Capital Rotates to Bitcoin Layer-2 Infrastructure as HYPER Presale Tops $32.7M
As profits flow from legacy altcoins, Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) has emerged as a major recipient of capital, with its presale securing more than $32.7 million. The project is developing a dedicated Layer-2 network for Bitcoin designed to address the main chain’s latency and transaction cost bottlenecks while preserving its underlying security model.
Bitcoin has the foundation.
Hyper has the horsepower.

Built on the high-throughput Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), Bitcoin Hyper utilizes a combination of zero-knowledge proofs, optimistic rollups, and sidechains to process transactions efficiently. Under this architecture, users deposit BTC into a monitored bridge address. Smart contracts then verify the cryptographic proofs and mint equivalent L2 tokens, enabling instant transactions for decentralized finance (DeFi), staking, payments, and decentralized applications (dApps).
Currently priced at $0.0136808, the HYPER token offers utility within the ecosystem. Early participants can stake their holdings immediately to secure a 36% APY, providing a yield incentive while the project prepares for public exchange listings.
Acquisition and Staking: Participating in the HYPER Presale
Investors looking to participate in the presale can access the official Bitcoin Hyper website. The platform features direct integration with Best Wallet, allowing users to acquire HYPER using ETH, BNB, SOL, stablecoins, or bank cards. The Best Wallet application is available for download on both the Apple App Store and Google Play, offering a unified interface for portfolio tracking and asset management.
To track development milestones, security audits, and exchange listing announcements, users can follow Bitcoin Hyper on X and join the Telegram channel.
