A powerful dual trend is reshaping the Bitcoin landscape. While corporate treasuries like Tokyo-listed Metaplanet aggressively accumulate Bitcoin, solidifying its price floor as a reserve asset, a parallel surge of capital—over $31 million—is flowing into Layer 2 infrastructure like Bitcoin Hyper. This signals a pivotal market evolution: from merely holding ‘digital gold’ to actively building the scalable ecosystems needed to unlock its trillion-dollar potential for DeFi and beyond.
