Construction of ETH escalates, surge in LINK amplifies, and BlockDAG trading dashboard activation takes place
In the rapidly evolving world of cryptocurrencies, a new player is making waves in the 2025 market - BlockDAG (BDAG). With a successful presale that has raised over $376 million and is approaching a $600 million funding goal, BlockDAG is poised to make a significant impact.
BlockDAG is a hybrid DAG + Proof-of-Work architecture that emphasises scalability, decentralisation, and fast transactions. The project has strong infrastructure, with the sale of 19,000 ASIC miners and over 2.5 million users mining via a mobile app. BlockDAG is preparing for a major global launch and has confirmed listings on 20 major centralized exchanges, enhancing liquidity and market access.
Compared to Ethereum (ETH), BlockDAG is positioned as an ambitious challenger, potentially offering higher growth due to its early-stage undervaluation and fresh architecture. Ethereum remains a dominant platform known for institutional adoption, growing Layer 2 ecosystem expansion, and staking rewards. ETH is trading at significantly higher valuation and benefits from network upgrades and extensive dApp ecosystems, but may face slower short-term price growth compared to a new entrant like BDAG.
Chainlink (LINK), on the other hand, continues to be a critical infrastructure player in decentralized finance (DeFi) and cross-chain applications. LINK has recently achieved record Total Value Secured (TVS) of over $93 billion and is involved in large-scale projects like cross-border CBDC-stablecoin pilots with Visa, solidifying its real-world utility. LINK has institutional attention and price momentum with growing demand tied to DeFi and smart contract interoperability. While BDAG focuses on fundamental blockchain transaction scalability and mining adoption, Chainlink excels in oracle services that connect blockchains to external data, positioning it differently but as a complementary technology in the ecosystem.
As BlockDAG prepares for its official launch, investors are keeping a close eye on this promising newcomer. With its technologically innovative foundation and aggressive growth targets, BlockDAG offers a potentially high reward but also higher risk as a new entrant. Ethereum remains the dominant smart contract platform with broad adoption and significant network effects, while Chainlink serves as a key infrastructure layer enabling various blockchain use-cases, with proven real-world impact.
