It\u2019s been a wild few days for crypto traders. Friday\u2019s flash crash wiped hundreds of billions of dollars from the market\u2019s value in minutes, and rattled everything from Bitcoin (BTC) to low-cap meme coins.<\/p>\n
Then the tone flipped. Bitcoin bounced hard on Sunday and into today, up about 3% in the past 24 hours and now sitting only 10% below its recent all-time high. With bullish momentum back, Bitcoin price prediction chatter is everywhere.<\/p>\n
Now to the big question: after surviving one of the year\u2019s sharpest sell-offs, can Bitcoin post a new all-time high before the month is out? And if it does, which coins might follow suit?<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why attention is also shifting to smaller projects within the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER)<\/a> \u2013 a fast, low-cost Bitcoin Layer-2 that\u2019s raised over $23 million in presale \u2013 is one of those projects. Some experts even think it could outpace BTC on a percentage basis by year-end.<\/p>\n Friday\u2019s drop came from a bearish mix: thin liquidity after weeks of ETF inflows, stretched leverage, and a surprise US\u2013China tariff headline<\/a> that Donald Trump announced on Truth Social. Margin calls hit as a result, triggering a wave of forced selling on CEXs.<\/p>\n Derivatives drove the next leg lower. With depth scarce, each liquidation pushed<\/a> crypto prices down further, setting off more stop losses. Some CEXs even saw partial outages, which added to the panic.<\/p>\n BREAKING: Over $8,000,000,000 has been liquidated from the crypto market in the past 60 minutes.<\/p>\n \u2014 Whale Insider (@WhaleInsider) October 10, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nFriday\u2019s Flash Crash and Why Bitcoin Has Rebounded<\/h2>\n
