Grok’s Bitcoin Price Prediction with Fears of $100K: Traders Rotate to Bitcoin Hyper

Grok's Bitcoin Price Prediction with Fears of $100K: Traders Rotate to Bitcoin Hyper

KEY POINTS:

➡ Bitcoin has recovered from its lowest recent price but is still in the danger zone.

➡ Grok predicts two cases for Bitcoin: rising to $160K or a crash to $100K.

➡ ETFs for Bitcoin are slowing down as a result of the crash.

➡ Bitcoin Hyper emerges from the market fiasco relatively unscathed as its presale continues to attract investors.

It looks like Bitcoin is finally stabilizing after one of the roughest weeks for crypto in recent memory. After hitting a new all-time high at around $126K, the value of $BTC dropped to lows of $106K on October 10, causing a wave of liquidations across leveraged crypto positions.

As of writing, Bitcoin is now holding at around $112K and most of the volatility seems to have passed. Now that the dust has settled, we’ve asked Grok for a forecast on Bitcoin to see whether the rumors that Bitcoin could drop to $100K in the near future hold any weight.

Grok responded that there are two likely scenarios in the near future. In the bull case, Grok expects there’ll be a late-cycle parabolic run fuelled by institutional capital and broader adoption, pushing the price point towards anywhere between $160K and $200K per $BTC.

However, Grok also pointed out that the flash crash may have significantly shaken retail and institutional appetite for risk in the crypto market, leading to a bear case of around $100K. The ETF flow figures reflect this – we’ve seen much lower inflows since October 10.

Ali Martinez, on X, pointed out that Bitcoin has a major support level at around $14K. Dropping below this level could knock Bitcoin all the way down to $100K, supporting Grok’s hypothesis.

As a result of these fears, traders are currently looking to rotate out of Bitcoin until the direction of the market is clearer, especially as the full impact of Trump’s China tariffs are yet to be assessed. While Bitcoin should eventually recover, the smart money is on smaller crypto projects set to benefit from Uptober.

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is the ideal presale to check out while you’re waiting for the market to recover. It plans to bring Bitcoin into the Web3 ecosystem with smart contract support based on Solana. Let’s take a look at why adding Solana could potentially make Bitcoin more resilient against future market crashes.

Bitcoin Hyper – A Solana-Based Layer-2 Bringing Faster Speeds and Lower Fees to Bitcoin

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) could be the answer to all of Bitcoin’s growing problems. It’s the official token of the Bitcoin Hyper network, a Layer-2 solution for Bitcoin that will integrate the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) to add additional scalability and Web3 capabilities to the Bitcoin ecosystem.

The recent Bitcoin pullback shows that $BTC’s primary value is as an investment asset. When the markets are spooked, Bitcoin drops and it has a harder time recovering compared to crypto assets with value based on utility as well as investment, such as Ethereum and Solana.

Bitcoin Hyper could change all of that. While Bitcoin’s slow clearing times and high transaction fees have prevented it from being the crypto of choice for Web3, integrating the SVM will allow for lightning-fast transactions. Not only will that take pressure off the network, but it will also enable dApp support using $BTC.

Transferring your $BTC between the networks will be easy. You deposit your Bitcoin onto the Canonical Bridge address on the Layer-1, which holds it in custody for you. An equivalent amount of wrapped $BTC will then be minted and deposited in your account on the Layer-2, which you can use to swap crypto and NFTs or run dApps.

Bitcoin Hyper transfers your Bitcoin from the Bitcoin network to a Layer-2.

The $HYPER token lets you get the most value out of using the Bitcoin Hyper network. Holding it will reduce the fees you pay when you swap crypto or run dApps on Bitcoin Hyper, making the most of your $BTC. It will also unlock access to exclusive features on smart contracts running on the Bitcoin Hyper network.

Access to the Bitcoin DAO is also limited to $HYPER holders, so if you want to have a say in the future of the network or vote on upcoming proposals, you’ll need a healthy stack of $HYPER.

All of these utility features for the Bitcoin Hyper network are why the $HYPER presale has been so successful. It has raised $23.7M+ in token sales so far, but you can still buy in cheaply at only $0.013115. Buying now also nets you up to 50% in staking rewards per annum on any tokens from the presale.

Take a look at our step-by-step guide to buying $HYPER to find out how.

Another thing to consider is $HYPER’s long-term potential. With 30% of it total token supply allocated to development, we have high hopes that this Layer-2 solution to Bitcoin’s pain points will make good on its promises – and then some.

That’s why our Bitcoin Hyper price prediction sees $HYPER potentially reaching $0.20 by the end of this year, and $1.20 by 2030. Based on today’s price, HODLing $HYPER for the next five years could mean a massive 9,052% ROI.

As with most presales, though, the price increases in stages, while the APY lowers as more holders stake their tokens. So the clock is ticking if you want to buy in at $HYPER’s current early-bird price.

Be part of the future of Bitcoin – purchase $HYPER today.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
