U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs drew another $532.21 million on Monday, pushing cumulative inflows above $59 billion and total assets under management to $106.44 billion, as Washington moved the Clarity Act closer to a markup session. The combination is strengthening the market case for Bitcoin even as Iran-related risks remain in focus.
That backdrop is also lifting interest in Bitcoin-linked infrastructure plays. Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER), a Bitcoin-focused Layer 2 project, has raised $32.5 million in its presale as investors look beyond BTC itself and toward products built around broader network utility.
With Bitcoin holding above recent support and testing the $81,000 area, analysts are increasingly discussing the potential for fresh all-time highs before year-end. At the same time, capital is also rotating into projects that aim to improve Bitcoin’s speed, cost efficiency, and on-chain functionality.
The White House has signaled that the Clarity Act can move forward after a compromise on stablecoin rules broke a previous impasse. Patrick Witt, Executive Director of the President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets, posted “Go time” following the breakthrough. Lawmakers are now targeting a markup session as soon as the week of 11 May, while prediction markets have pushed passage odds to about 70%.
President Trump has publicly backed the legislation, which is expected to provide long-sought market structure rules for the sector and could support further institutional participation if enacted.
The policy shift comes alongside continued demand through U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs. Monday’s $532.21 million net inflow extended the recent buying spree and reinforced support for BTC as broader markets continue to assess macro developments.
Analyst CryptoKaleo argued in a recent X post that concern around the $85,000 level is overdone, describing it as “FUD,” and said a broader commodity supercycle already visible in gold, silver, and oil could eventually extend to Bitcoin.
$85K is FUD.
BTC is set to have a run similar to what we saw with gold, silver, and oil in the last year.
We're in a commodity supercycle, and it's Bitcoin's turn to run. https://t.co/TYdcbs6Nsg pic.twitter.com/oCTxNJORNP

Bitcoin Hyper Draws Presale Capital as Investors Look at Bitcoin-Native Infrastructure
Against that macro backdrop, Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) is attracting buyers with a pitch centered on Bitcoin scaling. The project says it is building the first true Bitcoin Layer 2 network to address the base layer’s slower transaction speeds and higher fees while preserving Bitcoin security.
Its design uses the Solana Virtual Machine for higher throughput and near-instant finality, then periodically settles back to Bitcoin through zero-knowledge proofs and a trustless bridge. The aim is to let users deposit BTC, transfer value at lower cost, and access DeFi, staking, and dApps without leaving the Bitcoin ecosystem.
A bit of Bitcoin and a WHOLE lot of $HYPER

The presale has now raised more than $32.5 million, with HYPER priced at $0.0136796. The token has a total supply of 21 billion, allocated 30% to development, 25% to treasury, 20% to marketing, 15% to rewards, and 10% to listings.
Early buyers can also stake immediately at a 36% APY. With regulatory clarity becoming a bigger theme in the U.S. market, projects positioned around making Bitcoin faster and more usable could remain in focus if the current momentum holds.
How Buyers Can Access the Bitcoin Hyper Presale
To participate, users can go to the official Bitcoin Hyper website, connect a compatible wallet such as Best Wallet or MetaMask, and select the amount of HYPER they want to purchase. Payments can be made in ETH, USDT, BNB, USDC, SOL, or by bank card.
