Is it Cronos’ massive jump or Stellar’s battle at support levels that’s pulling all eyes this week? Both are making headlines, but one project is quickly dominating trader discussions, BlockDAG. Momentum exploded when two separate whales made headline-worthy buys of $4.4M and $4.3M, pushing past the prior $3.8M leaderboard top.
The buzz hasn’t stopped since. Telegram is full of chatter, the presale dashboard is in overdrive, and each new batch is getting scooped up at lightning speed. It’s no longer just another presale; it’s becoming a movement.
This shift has created urgency not just for whales but also for retail participants. BlockDAG’s rise is now the talk of the top crypto projects heading into 2025, and it’s not slowing down.
1. $8.7M Whale Entries Push BlockDAG into Overdrive!
BlockDAG’s presale just saw its biggest twist. Two massive contributors locked in $4.4M and $4.3M each, leapfrogging the earlier $3.8M mark and setting off a storm of activity. Now everyone’s watching the board, and buying in fast, as anticipation builds before launch. Telegram groups are lit up, and Dashboard V4 is swamped with users following every move.
Currently in Batch 30, each BDAG is at a special price $0.0013, already delivering high gains for those who entered back in Batch 1 at $0.001. With a confirmed launch price of $0.05, there’s still more room to run.
This isn’t just big money flexing; the effect has filtered through the entire community. Smaller buyers are now charging in, seeing these whale plays as a major green light. It’s rare for whales and smaller holders to act in sync, but that’s exactly what’s happening here. It’s created a rush that feels less like a typical presale and more like a gold rush.
With $395M raised, 25 billion BDAG coins sold, and 3 million users already mining with the X1 app and X10 devices, BlockDAG isn’t just participating; it’s rewriting the script on how presales gain traction.
Cronos Climbs 40% After Trump Media Deal
Cronos just shook things up with a nearly 40% price surge, all stemming from a $6.4 billion deal involving Trump Media, Crypto.com, and Yorkville Acquisition. The breakdown: $1B in CRO, $200M in cash, $220M in warrants, and a $5B equity line. Trump Media picked up $105M in CRO, while Crypto.com grabbed $50M worth of Trump Media shares.
As soon as the announcement dropped, CRO hit its highest levels since mid-2022, with volume nearing $1B. On the chart, CRO’s bullish stance holds firm after jumping past $0.35. Fibonacci support is flagged near $0.3295, and targets are now pointed toward $0.5058.
Despite RSI showing overbought territory, whales appear to be fueling the charge. The Trump connection, and its pro-crypto tone, has added another layer of hype that’s keeping retail watchers fully engaged.
Stellar Holds $0.38 as Traders Await Rebound
Stellar is testing support again after slipping from $0.398 to $0.380 in late August. That $0.380 level held firm thanks to heavy volume, nearly 95 million tokens traded, confirming it as a level to watch. Analysts point to $0.360 as the next critical base.
A hold there could open the door to a bounce toward $0.45, with more ambitious charts hinting at $0.582 or even $1.00, though resistance at $0.45 remains a hurdle. RSI and candlestick patterns show the market is undecided, but it’s a setup many traders are closely tracking.
Meanwhile, Stellar is expanding on the institutional front, joining Ripple in the DTCC’s $2.5 quadrillion blockchain initiative, a big credibility boost. Short-term forecasts hover between $0.38–$0.48, with some long-term models eyeing $1.29 by 2025 and even $3–$4 by 2030 if adoption keeps climbing. For now, it’s all about whether Stellar can keep its footing near current levels.
Looking Ahead
Cronos grabbed attention with its $6.4B deal and a 40% CRO surge, while Stellar’s focus is on holding its $0.36–$0.38 support and possibly rebounding toward $0.45 or higher, fueled by fresh institutional traction. But the most aggressive shift is happening at BlockDAG. After two enormous buy-ins of $4.4M and $4.3M, the presale landscape transformed overnight.
The whale moves have sparked the strongest surge yet, with smaller holders rushing in to lock up their positions before the price moves toward its $0.05 launch target. With $395 million raised and over 25 billion coins sold, BlockDAG isn’t just participating in the presale scene; it’s taking over. Among top crypto projects right now, this one is shaping the cycle’s biggest momentum push yet.
