Some crypto projects prioritize marketing, while others emphasize product milestones. BlockDAG says its “Awakening” Testnet is scheduled to launch on September 25. The project presents the testnet as a step toward making its technology observable in a public environment rather than only in limited demonstrations.
Ahead of that date, BlockDAG is also running a token sale. According to the project’s materials, the token is priced at $0.0013 per coin until October 1. Dates, prices, and product readiness are subject to change, and readers should treat project-provided timelines as provisional until independently verified.
Why testnet launches are closely watched
In the crypto sector, a public testnet can provide signals about whether core components function under broader usage. BlockDAG says its September 25 testnet will include multiple parts of its stack, including the core blockchain, explorer tools, miner integration, account abstraction, vesting mechanics, and smart-account groundwork, as part of live stress testing. These are project-described plans and have not been independently validated in this article.
The project argues that a public testnet can shift the discussion from forward-looking claims to observable behavior. That said, a testnet launch does not guarantee mainnet readiness, adoption, or market outcomes.
BlockDAG also describes its token sale as using a flat-rate pricing period. Pricing structures and participation terms can carry additional risks, including liquidity, delivery, and disclosure risk.
Project-reported product milestones
Early-stage token sales often draw skepticism because timelines and deliverables can change. BlockDAG says it has shipped physical miners, released a mobile app, and is preparing a testnet intended to launch with broader ecosystem functionality.
The project reports that more than 26.2 billion BDAG coins have been sold and that total funding is nearly $407 million. It also states that it is in “batch 30,” with a listed price of $0.03, while separately describing a promotional price of $0.0013 through October 1. These figures are project-reported and are not independently verified here.
BlockDAG further claims the X10 hardware miner is shipping globally, with production capacity scaling to 2,000 units weekly, and that its X1 mobile app miner has surpassed 3 million users.
The project also references a July 23 demo showing interaction between X1 and X10 under real-world conditions. As with any demo, it is not necessarily representative of long-term performance or network outcomes.
Timeline leading up to September 25
BlockDAG frames the period leading into September 25 as a time when it will publish additional updates, including videos, explorer releases, and miner demonstrations, and it also cites third-party reviews. It reports having more than 312,000 holders and claims more than 1,000 new holders are joining daily; these numbers are provided by the project and are not independently confirmed in this article.
If the testnet launches as described, it may provide more public data points about the system’s behavior. However, any future effects on adoption, pricing, or trading conditions remain uncertain.
BlockDAG’s token-sale pricing and schedule are described on its official website. Readers should review the terms directly, including any lockups, vesting rules, jurisdiction restrictions, and technical risks, and should avoid assuming that a testnet launch implies future price appreciation or investment suitability.
Looking ahead
BlockDAG says its testnet is intended to make more of the project’s claims observable. Separately, the project’s reported token-sale figures and product milestones are presented as evidence of progress. As with other early-stage crypto projects, these details should be treated cautiously and checked against primary sources and independent reporting when available.
For reference, BlockDAG lists additional information on its website, including the token-sale schedule (including the stated $0.0013 price through October 1) and ongoing updates.
