BlackRock Dethrones Coinbase in Bitcoin Options – Why Bitcoin Hyper Presale Could Be the Next Big Winner

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has surpassed Coinbase’s Deribit platform, becoming the largest venue for Bitcoin options globally. Open interest in options tied to IBIT recently reached nearly $38B, compared to $32B on Deribit.

Deribit was founded in 2016 and has been the market leader for Bitcoin derivatives for the longest time. In contrast, launched only in November 2024, IBIT is relatively new to the options trading market. Its early and rapid adoption has turned heads in the crypto world.

IBIT has had a remarkable growth since its inception. For starters, the firm crossed $80B in assets under management (AUM) in just 374 trading days – the fastest for an ETF to reach that milestone.

With IBIT now holding 57.5% of all Bitcoin ETF assets under management, Wall Street’s message is clear: institutional conviction in $BTC has never been stronger.

As Bitcoin’s momentum builds, hot new crypto presales such as Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) are riding the wave of success.

Why Now Might Be a Defining Moment for Bitcoin and Its Ecosystem

IBIT overtaking Derbit suggests that the center of gravity in crypto derivatives is shifting toward regulated US-based venues. Additionally, IBIT’s increasing options liquidity enhances its credibility, which attracts more capital, creating a cycle of deeper liquidity and market presence.

While IBIT may have overtaken Deribit in volume, Deribit continues to retain a strong following among crypto-native traders as a top crypto exchange for speculative and high-leverage trades, particularly in offshore or less-regulated contexts.

The major curveball is how a regulated instrument like IBIT could become the largest options venue in under a year, indicating just how much and how fast institutional capital is now flowing into Bitcoin-linked products.

As more capital enters, it helps support price and deepens liquidity, making the coin less vulnerable to extreme volatility or flash crashes.

Together, these trends indicate that the market is pulling in two directions — crypto natives are sticking with Deribit, while institutions are pouring into IBIT.

What’s more, as open interest in Bitcoin-linked options increases, the derivatives market plays a more important role in price discovery. IBIT’s dominance means its options could increasingly influence Bitcoin’s implied volatility, hedging flows, and directional pressures.

This deeper market structure feeds directly into broader momentum. Sustained inflows via ETFs and derivatives in a bullish cycle can generate ‘flywheel effects,’ meaning that more capital will attract more liquidity, which in turn brings in even more capital.

With macroeconomic factors like inflation, monetary easing, and geopolitical risks prompting investors to seek alternative stores of value, $BTC is well-positioned to capture demand.

Additionally, Bitcoin-based projects (layer-2s, decentralized finance, tokenization, cross-chain bridges) stand to benefit significantly from increased adoption, as it translates to more capital, more experiments, and more integrations.

Bitcoin Hyper Redefines Efficiency with Ultra-Low Transaction Costs

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is the latest crypto project attempting to turbocharge Bitcoin with Solana-like speed, scalability, and Web3 support.

The project is developing a Layer 2 solution for Bitcoin that will integrate with the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM), enabling the execution of thousands of unrelated transactions in parallel.

Bitcoin Hyper rises to modern blockchain standards by processing the transactions off-chain, but without compromising Bitcoin Layer 1 security. That’s because it batches the transaction results and submits a summary to the Bitcoin main chain, ensuring instantaneous execution.Here are a few other features that make $HYPER worth watching:

• SVM integration allows developers to build smart contracts and decentralized applications on the network
• Layer 2 enables high-speed DeFi trading, NFTs, DAOs and governance, lending, staking, swapping, and blockchain gaming
• Seamless user interaction with this SVM-powered Web3 environment.

Now that we have an idea of what the project aims to achieve, let’s get into how to buy $HYPER and why participating in the Bitcoin Hyper presale can deliver value to early investors.

The project is already making waves in its presale phase, raising over $19.2M. Whales have been spotted, stacking their bags with $HYPER worth $113.8K, $109.9K, $105.4K, totaling $329K over the past weekend.

One Hyper now sits at $0.013005 with dynamic staking rewards of 61% APY. If analysts are correct, $HYPER’s price could rise to $0.02595 by the end of 2025 and to $0.08625 by 2026.

To put this into perspective, if you invest $500 into Hyper today, you could stand to gain around $1,606 in just one year — that’s price appreciation plus staking rewards. In other words, a 3.2x return.

Remember, the staking APY decreases as more participants join, and the next expected price jump is scheduled for tomorrow.

Secure your $HYPER today for the highest potential gains.
