Crypto is heating up again, but the spotlight is shifting. Ondo and Toncoin have drawn some attention, Ondo with real-world asset tokenisation and Toncoin with a treasury push, but BlockDAG is pulling way ahead.
So far, BlockDAG has locked in $396 million, sold 25 billion coins, and grown its X1 app user base to 3 million, a milestone most projects never see before listing. With a hybrid tech model and full EVM compatibility, it’s not just building traction, it’s building an ecosystem that scales. While others are reacting to market news, BlockDAG is creating it. That’s why it’s quickly becoming the crypto with the most momentum going into 2025.
Can ONDO Deliver on RWA Hype?
Ondo is pushing forward in the real-world asset space, looking to bridge traditional markets with blockchain infrastructure. It currently boasts a market cap of $2.94 billion and a fully diluted figure near $9.31 billion. Its key play has been the tokenization of U.S. Treasuries and other traditional assets, which has attracted interest from major players on both sides of the finance world.
Strategic moves, like acquiring Strangelove and Oasis Pro, have helped Ondo beef up its on-chain capabilities while staying within regulatory lanes. Plus, tie-ups with BNB Chain, Alchemy Pay, and Pantera Capital show global expansion is top of mind. RWA trading activity has already passed $4.19 billion over the past month.
Still, ONDO’s price remains below peak levels, trading near $0.93. Despite strong partnerships, the road to 10× growth relies heavily on ETF approvals and whether institutional adoption of tokenized assets accelerates fast enough.
TON’s Treasury Strategy in Focus
Toncoin’s latest boost comes from an unexpected source: a Nasdaq-listed firm shifting serious capital into the asset. Verb Technology has revealed $713 million in TON as part of its treasury holdings, causing a modest price jump from $3.23 to $3.30. The company is rebranding as the Ton Strategy Company and plans to control over 5% of TON’s total circulating supply. It’s also leaning into staking to add more strength to the network.
Toncoin has a market cap of $8.4 billion but is still down sharply from its mid-2024 peak of $8.25, a 60% drop. Even so, its deep integration with Telegram keeps it relevant, especially as corporate players start to notice.
August 2025 brought in a $558 million private deal that added more steam to Toncoin’s long-term prospects. But despite the momentum from treasury moves, weak broader market conditions continue to slow down its breakout. Sustained growth will require more than one-time capital injections; it’ll need deeper and wider corporate adoption.
BlockDAG’s Deployment Event & $0.0013 Low Price Entry Gain Attention
While other projects are hoping for more traction, BlockDAG is already making huge strides. Three core pillars are driving it forward: widespread adoption, strong exposure, and breakthrough tech.
The X1 mining app now boasts over 3 million users globally. Its Proof-of-Engagement model isn’t just clever, it turns routine interaction into mining power, making participation rewarding and onboarding simple. This level of growth before any listing is rare and shows BlockDAG’s ability to scale a real audience.
BlockDAG is moving confidently into deployment with a Singapore event ahead. Coinstore’s presence adds weight as the project highlights ecosystem advancements. A clear low pricing structure has replaced bonuses, making the process straightforward for all.
With Batch 30’s special price $0.0013, early supporters from Batch 1, who entered at $0.001, are already sitting on massive gains. For those coming in now, there’s still room to climb before the $0.05 launch kicks in.
Then there’s the tech itself. A hybrid model combining DAG and PoW offers speeds from 2,000–15,000 TPS, with full EVM compatibility. Plus, both the X1 app and the X-series miners make it accessible to casual users and scalable for heavy-duty tasks. This isn’t theory, it’s functioning infrastructure getting ready to launch.
Closing Analysis
Each of these three projects brings something different to the table. Ondo has built a compelling case around real-world asset tokenization but remains reliant on outside developments like ETF regulations. Toncoin has sparked interest through corporate treasury inflows, but still faces resistance due to broader market hesitation.
BlockDAG is already in motion. With millions using the X1 app, and a presale that has raised $396M, it’s not just planning for the future, it’s building it now. Backed by working products, high-speed architecture, and a gamified mining ecosystem, BlockDAG is quickly becoming the one to watch in 2025.
