Bitcoin remained above $79,000 on Friday, 8 May 2026, even as the new military exchange between the US and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz raised oil prices and renewed interest in political risks. This difference has strengthened the opinion among market participants that BTC is performing better than traditional currencies that are directly linked to power and trade disruption.
This background has also attracted interest in Bitcoin-related games. Among them, it is Bitcoin Hyper (HYPER) The presale continues to raise funds, with the project reporting more than $32.6 million raised as a single pitch as Bitcoin Layer 2 was built to include Bitcoin security and the release of the Solana style.
Yesterday’s exchange of fire between the US and Iran forces in the Strait of Hormuz tried to stop the fighting that had been going on since April 7. Reports describe missiles, drones, and small boat activities in one of the world’s most important shipping corridors. President Trump downplayed the issue and said the deal was still in place, but crude oil still performed: WTI rose to $95.64, up 0.69%, while Brent rose to $101.26, up 1.2%.
Bitcoin, in contrast, has not seen similar damage. Its ability to remain resilient despite the surge has fueled criticism that the economy is being viewed as a store of value in times of crisis.
Chain analyst CW said that Bitcoin whales are increasingly bullish on the future and based on the pressure of retail trade, which shows continued confidence in BTC’s growing trend even as national headlines intensify.
