Many people looking at crypto markets try to balance short-term price moves with longer-term utility and adoption. Bitcoin and Ethereum remain at the center of attention, while assets such as XRP and Avalanche also continue to see active trading.
In 2025, token sales and newer projects have also drawn attention in parts of the market. BlockDAG (BDAG) is one of the names being discussed, with the project citing strong fundraising activity and user engagement, including a marketed token price ahead of a planned launch.
Some market participants are asking whether BlockDAG should be discussed alongside larger, more established assets such as XRP and Ethereum. Any comparison should also account for differences in scale, track record, liquidity, and risk.
1. BlockDAG reports raising over $405M across 30 batches
BlockDAG has been promoted widely in 2025. According to project materials, it has raised more than $405 million and sold over 26.2 billion coins. The project also says around 3 million people use its X1 mining app and that 19,800 miners have been purchased.
The project states that the BlockDAG (BDAG) token price is $0.03 in “Batch 30,” and it also references a promotional price of $0.0013. The project and community commentary have highlighted large percentage changes between earlier and later token-sale stages; such figures are not independently verified and do not predict future performance. Any price targets mentioned publicly (for example, long-term targets discussed by community members) are speculative.
Project descriptions highlight a hybrid design combining a DAG-based structure with Proof-of-Work, positioning it for throughput and scalability. These technical claims should be evaluated against independently available documentation and, where possible, third-party audits or testing.
As with any early-stage project and token sale, reported participation figures and marketing claims may not reflect future adoption, liquidity, or market performance.
2. XRP trades near $3 while holding weekly gains
Among larger, well-known crypto assets, XRP has remained actively traded in 2025. At the time referenced, it was trading around $2.88$2.89 with weekly gains cited at roughly 25%.
Commentary often links XRP’s activity to cross-border payments use cases and regional market participation, including in parts of Asia. Technical levels such as resistance near $3.00 are commonly discussed, but short-term price moves are uncertain and can change quickly.
3. Sei posts weekly growth amid broader market volatility
Sei (SEI) has also appeared in discussions of active mid-cap assets. Around the time referenced, it traded near $0.29$0.30, with a weekly move of about 7% cited.
Some traders point to chart-based levels such as $0.2960 and $0.2990, and potential upside levels around $0.3050$0.3200. These are technical-analysis scenarios rather than forecasts and may not materialize.
4. Avalanche hovers around $24 with market watching for new catalysts
Avalanche (AVAX) has remained a closely followed smart-contract platform token. It was cited trading around $24.6$24.7, with roughly 7% gains over the week in the referenced period.
AVAX has at times traded sideways as market participants look for network, macro, or ecosystem developments that could affect demand. As with other assets, short-term price performance can be driven by broader market conditions.
How these names are being discussed in 2025
Discussion around crypto markets in 2025 extends beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. XRP, Sei, and Avalanche are frequently cited for different reasons, ranging from perceived stability and liquidity to ecosystem development and trader interest.
BlockDAG, meanwhile, is being talked about largely in the context of its token sale and project-reported participation metrics. Those figures, along with any projections or price targets circulating online, should be treated as unverified and speculative until independently confirmed.
Project materials describe BlockDAG as combining a DAG structure with Proof-of-Work to support performance and scale. Readers evaluating any early-stage project may wish to review primary documentation and independent reporting alongside market-risk considerations.
