Bitcoin Lightning Network Deposit Presale Surpasses $900 Million, Pump.fun Presale Cap 1.5x Oversubscribed

By: theblockbeats.news|2025/07/10 12:06:53

BlockBeats News, July 10th: The Thunderbolt Station initiated by Nubit reached the end of the reservation phase, with the total reservation deposit amount surpassing 900 million U.S. dollars, approximately 1.5 times the fundraising amount of Pump.fun.

The Bitcoin Thunderbolt Station is used to maintain the security of the main network and provide main network revenue distribution for holding institutions and qualified users. As of today, the reservation phase of the station has ended. Several institutions, family offices, and investment institutions have participated in the reservation deposit through BTC, USD1, and BRC-20, Runes, and other Taproot-scripted assets. This is the first time that Bitcoin-native assets have been extensively used in a main network infrastructure participation scenario.

The second phase of the station will open within this week. Qualified institutions and users can initiate the station and maximize main network revenue by depositing BTC or USD1 using the tsUSD quota.

The Bitcoin Thunderbolt Network, led by early Bitcoin core developers and the Nubit team, is the only protocol on the current Bitcoin main network that supports native acceleration and stablecoin settlement. Online for two months, it has already processed over 4 million on-chain transactions, with the number of unique users exceeding 267,000. Previously, the Trump family's crypto project WLFI integrated its stablecoin USD1 into the Thunderbolt Network, becoming one of the first native settlement assets.

According to previous news on April 15th, HSBC revealed that the Bitcoin Thunderbolt Network has introduced UTXO Bundling and OP_CAT instructions through a mainnet soft fork, supporting native asset issuance and high-frequency transaction validation, with on-chain processing efficiency improved by 1000–2000 times compared to the Bitcoin main chain.

This article explores whether the ceasefire is a sign of lasting peace, assesses the short-term market implications, and delves into the evolving role of Bitcoin in the global financial landscape.

WEEX Market Update: U.S.-Iran Ceasefire Sparks Bitcoin Price Surge

April 8, 2026 – In a significant shift in global geopolitics, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a temporary two-week ceasefire with Iran, resulting in a notable market reaction across various asset classes.

From Panic to Pumps: How Bitcoin Traders Are Playing the 2-Week US-Iran Ceasefire

For most people, the two-week US-Iran ceasefire is about geopolitics, oil prices, and whether World War III gets postponed. But for crypto traders glued to their screens late Sunday night, it was something else entirely: the clearest risk-on signal in months.

US-Iran Ceasefire Triggers Oil Plunge, Bitcoin Surge, and Gold Rally

Despite the sharp rally, caution is warranted. The $70,000–$72,000 zone has historically been strong resistance. The ceasefire is only temporary (two weeks), and any breakdown in negotiations could trigger a sell-off toward the $62,000–$65,000 support zone. For now, Bitcoin needs to close decisively above $72,500 to confirm a true breakout; failure to do so within 48–72 hours could lead to a swift retracement.
