Saylor’s 5-Year Bitcoin Bet Redefined Crypto Industry, Pushing Top Cryptos Ahead

Today marks five years since Strategy’s Michael Saylor shifted the company’s focus to cryptocurrency by purchasing $250M worth of BTC, making it the world’s first Bitcoin treasury. Strategy has expanded significantly since Saylor’s initial move, now holding over $75B worth of BTC.

Saylor’s ballsy gamble paid off, but it hasn’t been a smooth ride. Since 2020, the crypto market has gone through some rocky spots, most notably the bankruptcy of crypto hedge fund FTX Trading. 

During this bear market, Saylor’s team kept buying the dips and dollar-cost averaging based on Bitcoin’s future growth. Now, US adoption of $BTC has surged with both the announcement of the Strategic Digital Reserve and the GENIUS Act, causing Bitcoin’s value to soar over $120,000.

During this bear market, Saylor’s team kept buying the dips and dollar-cost averaging based on Bitcoin’s future growth. Now, US adoption of $BTC has surged with both the announcement of the Strategic Digital Reserve and the GENIUS Act, causing Bitcoin’s value to soar over $120,000.

That’s great news for Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), which is going to upgrade the aging Bitcoin network with a Layer 2 blockchain powered by a Solana Virtual Machine. 

We’re expecting Snorter, a Telegram-based trading bot with its own native utility coin ($SNORT), to perform well due to renewed interest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

We’re also watching $ZORA, which has been surging recently (over 100% in the last seven days) after an announcement that the Web3 social media platform has introduced blockchain-powered micro-economies for individual posts.

We’ll explore the top altcoins you can buy this year to capitalize on Bitcoin’s ongoing dominance in the crypto space, but first, let’s take a closer look at how Strategy is driving up Bitcoin’s value. 

What is Strategy – The First Bitcoin Treasury

Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, was founded by Saylor in 1989 and grew into one of the leading business intelligence companies in the US by 2000. 

After losing $6 billion in a single day during the Dot–com bubble collapse, Saylor has since rebuilt the company into a Bitcoin-focused treasury and regained his billionaire status in the process. 

Today, Strategy owns over 600,000 $BTC. Saylor’s ambitions for the future? Based on statements made back at the beginning of the year, it sounds like Strategy is still hungry for more. 

In an interview for CNBC’s “Squawk Box”, Saylor stated ‘I don’t think we’ll get all of it. I don’t think 3-5% or 3-7% is too much.’

When Bitcoin rises, it lifts the rest of the crypto market as well. It’s like a guiding star for Web3, so if Saylor is still aiming to increase Strategy’s exposure to Bitcoin, it seems like there’s another bull market ahead for altcoins.

So, let’s explore the top three projects we believe will surge during what looks to be an excellent Q3 for crypto.

1. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) – Supercharging the Bitcoin Network with Layer-2 Speed and Capabilities

Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is modernizing the Bitcoin network by introducing dApps, reducing its transaction speeds and fees. Hyper achieves this with a Layer 2 solution powered by the Solana Virtual Machine. 

Bitcoin can be deposited into a Bitcoin Hyper-associated wallet, which is held while you use wrapped Bitcoin to transact over the Bitcoin Hyper network. 

Thanks to the Solana-based blockchain Bitcoin Hyper operates on, you can use your wrapped Bitcoin to interact with DeFi apps, trade for NFTs, and run your smart contracts powered by Bitcoin.

It’s powered by $HYPER, enabling you to access premium features on dApps built on the Bitcoin Hyper blockchain while reducing transaction fees. You can purchase $HYPER at a discounted rate during the ongoing presale. Currently, it’s available at $0.012625 per token with 130% annual returns from staking. 

Over $8M has been raised through the presale, showing plenty of momentum for $HYPER to hit the ground running.

2. Snorter ($SNORT) – Get Ultra Low Transaction Fees on this Telegram-based Trading Bot

Snorter ($SNORT) is a Telegram-based sniper bot that simplifies the process of finding new altcoins. Currently in pre-release, Snorter is ready to help you compete with crypto whales by delivering cutting-edge intel directly to your phone. 

Holding $SNORT reduces your transaction fees from 1.5% to 0.85%, giving you a clear advantage over other trading bots that charge 1% or more. 

It also removes your daily sniping limit, lets you join trading tournaments, and enables you to shape the project’s future when Snorter’s governance module launches.

$SNORT is currently available for presale at $0.1009, but this price is expected to increase as Snorter approaches full release. Nearly $3M has been raised through the presale, and it’s still possible to buy now and earn staking rewards of up to 147% annually. 

3. Zora ($ZORA) – Abandon Traditional Social Media and Monetize Your Own Posts in Crypto 

ZORA transforms how we engage with social media by integrating it into the blockchain, crafting a distinct Web3 experience where ownership and content creation are redefined.  

Each post by a Zora user is minted as its own ERC-20 token with a 1 billion token cap, making it tradable on the Zora blockchain. The original poster automatically receives 10 million of these tokens. 

Whenever these tokens are traded, the original poster earns 50% of the trade fee and 50% of the liquidity fee. This creates an entire ecosystem where the global reach of content isn’t dependent on centralized algorithms but on market forces, allowing Zora users to vote for their favorite content with their wallets.

Unlike $SNORT and $HYPER, there is no roadmap indicating that owning $ZORA grants governance rights on the Zora project. However, it is live now. $ZORA has surged by a remarkable 1400% over the past month due to Zora’s marketplace overhaul and might be on track to reach new all-time highs in the coming week.

What’s next for Bitcoin?

Saylor’s bullish outlook on Bitcoin has paid off, allowing the former billionaire to once again rank among the world’s wealthiest. Strategy’s comeback from the ashes is a true Bitcoin success story, but it’s not the only one. 

We’ve identified three promising cryptocurrencies poised for a surge as the year ends: $HYPER, $SNORT, and $ZORA. While it may be a bit late to catch $ZORA’s run, both $HYPER and $SNORT are still available in presale.
