In the crypto space, few projects are growing as clearly and steadily as BlockDAG. After collecting over $332 million and selling more than 23.6 billion BDAG coins, the project has entered a new chapter: bigger visibility and wider user reach. With the GLOBAL LAUNCH release set for August 11 and the presale price staying fixed at $0.0016 until then, BlockDAG is now heading into the final stage of its presale, and it’s doing so with help from two major sports teams.
In July, BlockDAG (BDAG) formed digital partnerships with two professional sports teams in the U.S.: the Seattle Seawolves from Major League Rugby and the Seattle Orcas from Major League Cricket. These partnerships go beyond simple branding. They bring Web3 tools into real-world sports settings, designed to connect with new audiences and improve how fans interact with teams.
Seawolves Bring Web3 Into the Rugby Arena
The Seattle Seawolves are more than just a sports team. As one of Major League Rugby’s founding teams and two-time champions, they lead in one of North America’s fast-growing sports scenes. Through this partnership, BlockDAG is now the Official Blockchain Partner of the Seawolves for the full 2025 season.
This collaboration highlights digital access, openness, and stronger ties with fans. Supporters will get access to blockchain-powered tools like NFTs and fan tokens that can be collected, traded, or owned securely. But there’s more to it than just digital items. BlockDAG and the Seawolves will also launch a monthly content series with match previews, behind-the-scenes footage, and player stories shared on the team’s social platforms.
From media led by players to interactive fan tools, this partnership shows a shared focus: using familiar experiences to welcome new users into the world of blockchain. For BlockDAG, it’s a meaningful step into sports communities. For the Seawolves, it’s a new way to grow their digital fan base.
Cricket Meets Crypto in Seattle Orcas Partnership
While rugby is growing fast in the U.S., cricket already commands a massive global audience, with around 2.5 billion fans and nearly 70% of them in India. BlockDAG’s second big partnership in July is with the Seattle Orcas, a leading team in Major League Cricket (MLC).
This announcement came during a strong run for the Orcas. In late June, they chased 238 runs in a standout game against MI New York and followed that with a win over the LA Knight Riders. Riding that high, the team made it official: BlockDAG will be their Blockchain Partner for the 2025 season.
The deal covers NFT collectibles, fan tokens, co-branded media, and video stories led by players. The aim is to give fans digital ways to engage with the team. Cricket already has a tech-friendly fan base, and this move brings blockchain tools into a space where digital content is already thriving.
Hemant Dua, CEO of the Orcas, shared:
“Our partnership with BlockDAG.network represents a significant step towards enhancing how our fans connect with the game.”
From BlockDAG’s side, CMO Nicolaas van den Bergh said:
“Cricket’s unparalleled global appeal presents a unique opportunity to leverage blockchain technology for enhancing fan engagement.”
These moves put BlockDAG right at the meeting point of sports, tech, and a global audience.
Countdown Begins as $600M Target Approaches
These recent partnerships are not just for show. They’re part of a bigger push. BlockDAG is aiming for a $600 million presale target, one of the largest seen in the crypto space in the past seven years.
There are now over 200,000 holders, more than 2 million X1 Miner App users, and over 18,390 ASIC miners sold. With the presale total already at $332 million and rising, the numbers are building fast.
The current BDAG price is locked at $0.0016 until August 11. After that, the BlockDAG GLOBAL LAUNCH release kicks off. What comes after hasn’t been revealed, but the fixed date has caught attention and added pressure to this final crypto presale stretch.
Changing What Crypto Projects Look Like
By mid-2025, it’s not enough for a crypto name to just promise strong performance. It needs real-world use, strong user numbers, and a place in culture. BlockDAG seems to be lining up all three.
With two sports partnerships in the U.S., a growing base of miners and users, and a path toward $600 million, it’s moving differently from most others.
While others wait for a bull run to grow, BlockDAG is building its momentum. The $0.0016 price is still active, and the foundation is already laid.
For those tracking projects with real-world moves, this may be one of the best cryptos today to watch. With rising interest in Toncoin (TON) trading volume and Cardano price trends, BlockDAG is stepping into the conversation not just as another option, but as a real presence in global crypto discussions.
