Key Takeaways
- US-Vietnam deal: Trump has announced 20% and 40% trade tariffs on Vietnam for goods and transshipments, respectively. Lower than his original tariffs, zero tariffs are to be imposed for US goods entering Vietnam.
- Market rally: $BTC price surged in response, heading back towards $110K. This signals cautious optimism and bullish market sentiment.
- $HYPER pump: Bitcoin Hyper set to pump amid $BTC rally. It’s the native coin of an innovative Bitcoin Layer-2 platform, enhancing scalability for lower transaction fees and sub-second speeds.
The Big Beautiful Bill might be at top of the US President’s mind, but that doesn’t mean Trump has forgotten about his favorite “T” word – tariffs. And his latest deal with Vietnam could lead to a crypto boom, with $BTC and Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) set to be the big winners.
Trump took to his Truth Social account yesterday to announce a trade deal that will see Vietnam pay a 20% tariff on all goods sent to the US, and a 40% tariff on transshipping (the movement of cargo from one ship to another while en route to their final destination).
As for the US, it will face zero tariffs on products entering Vietnam. In other words, as Trump put it, Vietnam is giving the US “total access to their markets for trade.”
The President’s statement comes just ahead of the looming July 9 deadline, when he’s set to escalate tariffs on a wide range of imports – a hallmark of his economic agenda. Originally unveiled in April, the original plan placed a 46% tariff on Vietnamese goods entering the US.
Crypto Market Responds Positively
Of course, when Trump speaks, markets around the world react – and that includes the cryptoverse. Since his June 2 announcement, $BTC is up 1.84%; $SOL 3.97%; and $ETH 6.01%. And with Bitcoin heading back towards $110K, the market is looking up.
But it’s not only the US’ political moves and pro-crypto stance that is impacting the crypto market. With the growing number of countries adopting legislation to recognize and regulate digital assets, Bitcoin is increasingly seen as “digital gold” – with a bullish outlook for its future.
Vietnam, for its part, however, has also made big moves towards legalizing digital assets. On June 12, Vietnamese Prime Minister Phạm Minh Chính approved a national list of strategic technologies that includes and officially recognizes blockchain and digital assets.
Now that crypto has been listed as a national strategic tech product, this opens the door to government support and future regulation.
Two days later, Vietnam’s National Assembly passed the Law on Digital Technology industry, which defines and sets rules for digital assets.
The law, which comes into effect in January 2026, also gives the Vietnamese government authority to create detailed rules around security, transparency, consumer protection, and tech standards.
Big Push for Bitcoin Hyper Token
With Bitcoin establishing its place as digital gold, a new altcoin is stepping into the limelight. That’s the Bitcoin Hyper Token ($HYPER), the meme coin behind a Bitcoin Layer-2 (L2) integrating Solana Virtual Machine (SVM). And it couldn’t come at a better time.
The Bitcoin blockchain has a lot going for it, being the crypto market’s ultimate store of value and exceptional security standards. However, speed, high transaction fees, and a lack of access to dApps and DeFi have always been a bugbear.
That’s where Bitcoin Hyper steps up to the plate as a fully customizable platform for running Bitcoin-based dApps and DeFi protocols.
In other words, Bitcoin Hyper will deliver a full-blown L2 blockchain to expand what’s possible on Bitcoin. That means sub-second transactions with near-zero gas fees, cross-chain compatibility, and custom smart contracts.
As Bitcoin Hyper integrates the SVM, it allows for staking, DeFi use cases, and seamless interaction with the Solana ecosystem, including meme coins. And because $HYPER is an ERC-20 token, Ethereum steps into the equation too, expanding cross-chain access through a Canonical Bridge.
In case you’re wondering, here’s how the Bitcoin Hyper L2 will work. First, you send your $BTC to a multi-signature address controlled by the L2 network. The L2 validators then verify this deposit and mint an equivalent amount of wrapped $BTC on the L2 chain.
Bitcoin Hyper’s L2 then batches these transactions and sends them to Bitcoin’s main chain for final settlement. That means base-layer security. At any time, you can burn your wrapped $BTC on Hyper’s L2, which will release the original $BTC back to their wallet.
Here’s Looking At You, $HYPER
A Bitcoin L2 is an exciting concept, so it comes as no surprise that crypto investors are sitting up and taking notice. After launching in mid-May, the $HYPER presale has already raised $1.87M+. But solid tokenomics are also a drawcard for investors.
$HYPER has a total token supply of 21B, and 30% of it is allocated to development. That’s a good sign. Ongoing development will be key to the L2’s success, which in turn should drive the token’s long-term performance.
Bitcoin Hyper also has attractive staking rewards. Right now, you can buy $HYPER for $0.012125 and stake it for 419% dynamic APY. Remember, though, $HYPER is on presale, so the price will gradually increase until the presale ends and $HYPER lists on DEXs.
Thumbs Up for Crypto
After a volatile start to the year, $BTC is back in the pound seat, and we’re cautiously optimistic that its price will see an upward trajectory. And if that’s the case, the rest of the crypto market is set to see good gains too.
That includes Bitcoin Hyper with its innovative L2 platform that aims to add scalability to the Bitcoin blockchain. We’ll be keeping a close eye on this upcoming meme coin with the potential to seriously pump.

Bogdan started his writing journey in the ‘Bitcoin is a scam’ era of 2010, which taught him a priceless lesson about the value of research and education, especially on topics that may one day help you build a fortune.
In other words, he missed the OG FOMO train, but he decided a few years later to give Bitcoin another chance, this time with full understanding of the ecosystem’s potential.
So, over the years, he became proficient in everything crypto-related, dissecting notions like Layer 2 upgrades, ETFs, chart predictive patterns, and crypto presales, all the while watching the crypto adoption wave building to a true tsunami.
This translated into hundreds of informational articles, reviews, data mining snippets, and whistleblower pieces, designed to rally investors to some underrated gem in the hope for that once-in-a-lifetime 1000x crypto.
Today, Bogdan splits his time between chart analysis, video games, spending time with his kids, and daydreaming about a tokenized future. Which seems to grow closer by the day.
