$214M Raised, 2,380% Gain—Why BlockDAG Is Racing Past NEAR and ONDO
This week has shown how quickly fortunes can shift in crypto. NEAR Protocol made a quiet move up 5%, helped by new AI-focused funding. ONDO saw its user base double but couldn’t stop a 25% drop in price.
Then there’s BlockDAG (BDAG), which raised $214.5 million during presale, logged over 1.2 million transactions on its testnet, and attracted over 1 million active miners. With centralized exchange listings on the horizon and working tech already in place, BDAG is shaping up to be one of the strongest performers heading into 2025.
NEAR Rises 5% After $2M AI Push—But Resistance Holds Strong
NEAR Protocol rose 5% this week, climbing to $2.60, while much of the market stayed flat. The increase follows a $2 million investment into the Intellex Protocol, which is building AI infrastructure across blockchains using NEAR. This brought renewed attention to the project.
But daily trading volume is down 25%, suggesting buyers are cautious. Technicals also show weakness. RSI is stuck at 39, and the MACD signals a bearish crossover. Despite the short rally, NEAR continues to face strong resistance. Reaching $3 may prove difficult in the short term.
While cross-chain AI developments are a positive sign, the token still needs a strong technical shift before bulls can take full control. For now, NEAR’s growth potential seems more long-term than immediate.
ONDO Slips 25% as Activity Grows—Is the Trend Misleading?
ONDO has seen its price fall 25% in the past month, even as its daily active addresses more than doubled. That growth—from under 1,500 to over 3,300—shows people are using the network, but it hasn’t translated into higher prices.
The token remains stuck in a descending channel. Technical indicators offer little support. The Chaikin Money Flow hasn’t gone positive, showing weak buyer momentum. An inverse cup and handle formation is also appearing—a pattern often linked to further losses.
ONDO needs to climb back above $1.13 to break this trend. If it doesn’t, prices may continue falling toward $0.50. That said, its rising user base suggests future growth is possible—just not guaranteed in the near term. Anyone considering ONDO will need to time their entry carefully.
BlockDAG Climbs 2,380% in Presale
BlockDAG (BDAG) is building fast and showing no signs of slowing. Since launching its presale, the project has raised $214.5 million and sold 19.2 billion coins. Its price jumped 2,380% from $0.001 to $0.0248—and it hasn’t even hit centralized exchanges yet.
Unlike many tokens that promise future development, BDAG is already delivering. Its beta testnet is live and has processed over 1.2 million transactions. More than 1 million miners are using its X1 app, helping power its Proof-of-Work-driven ecosystem. BDAG also includes DeFi tools, live dApps, and hackathons to keep developers engaged.
Even more momentum is expected as the token prepares to list on 10+ CEXs. These launches typically drive price spikes, especially when paired with strong community backing. BlockDAG also benefits from a growing reputation in DeFi circles, where its no-code tools lower the barrier for asset creation.
With a maximum supply of 150 billion tokens, a $1 price would put BDAG near a $150 billion market cap. That may sound high, but with this level of early activity, it’s not unrealistic. For now, the token remains under $0.03, giving presale buyers one final window before broader access begins.
Summary: BlockDAG Outperforms as Others Wait for a Breakout
NEAR’s AI involvement and ONDO’s user growth show signs of future value, but neither project has broken through in the current cycle. BlockDAG, on the other hand, is already delivering results. It has raised over $214.5 million, grown an active user base, and launched real, working tools ahead of its exchange debut.
NEAR may need more time, and ONDO still faces downside pressure. But BDAG has built real momentum before launch—something rarely seen in presales. As listings go live and adoption continues to climb, BlockDAG could set the pace for crypto’s next big run.
