The crypto market has recently shown sensitivity to network activity and headline-driven catalysts. Sui (SUI) has traded between roughly $3 and $3.5 after retreating from prior highs near $5.35, alongside reported high daily trading volumes and ongoing developer activity.
Meanwhile, Hedera (HBAR) has risen by about 25 percent over a week amid ETF-related speculation, highlighting how expectations around institutional products can influence short-term price action.
Against this backdrop, BlockDAG (BDAG) has circulated widely in market discussion, largely due to figures the project has published about its ongoing token sale and development roadmap. The project reports raising $435 million, having more than 312,000 holders, and having 4.3 billion tokens remaining across its final ten stages. It also claims a target throughput of up to 15,000 transactions per second, a live testnet, and completed security audits.
BlockDAG Token Sale Figures and Testnet Claims (Project-Reported)
BlockDAG says its token sale has raised $435 million and that it has more than 312,000 holders, with 4.3 billion tokens remaining across the final ten stages. The project also describes stage-based pricing, including references to $0.005 in “Batch 32.” It states that prior marketing bonuses have been discontinued and provides a vesting schedule that it describes as follows: 40 percent of tokens released at launch, followed by 20 percent monthly over the next three months.
According to project materials, the “Awakening Testnet” is live and has processed about 1,400 transactions per second, with Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility. The project describes its architecture as combining Proof-of-Work with Directed Acyclic Graph scaling, and it cites a throughput range of 2,000 to 15,000 transactions per second. It also states that audits have been completed by CertiK and Halborn.
The project also highlights its leadership team, stating that CEO Antony Turner has a fintech background and that advisor Dr. Maurice Herlihy, a Gödel Prize laureate at Brown University, is involved. As with other early-stage crypto projects, readers may wish to treat project-provided metrics and roadmap statements as unverified until independently confirmed.
SUI Trades Between $3–$3.5 After Retreat From $5.35 Highs
Sui’s (SUI) price has traded in a relatively narrow range after peaking near $5.35 earlier this year. Recent trading has largely been between $3 and $3.5. Reported daily trading volumes have averaged above $1 billion, while SUI’s market capitalization has been cited in the $11–$13 billion range. Price fluctuations indicate the market continues to reassess valuation as network usage and broader sentiment change.
From a technical-analysis perspective, some traders watch $3 as a support area and $4 as a resistance area. Longer-term outcomes will depend on factors such as sustained scalability, developer activity, and overall market conditions.
Hedera Climbs 25% in a Week on ETF Anticipation
Hedera’s (HBAR) recent move has been linked by market commentators to ETF-related speculation. After rising more than 25% over a week, HBAR reached highs near $0.18 before easing. Some analysts have pointed to institutional interest and Hedera’s governing-council model, which has included companies such as Google, IBM, and Boeing, as factors that may influence sentiment.
Some traders have cited levels around $0.188 and $0.21 as areas to watch. Independently of price, Hedera is often discussed for its transaction throughput, low fees, and enterprise-focused design, although adoption and usage trends can change over time.
Closing Thoughts
Recent price action in Sui and Hedera reflects a mix of network narratives, market structure, and ETF-related expectations. As with any cryptoasset, trading volumes and short-term moves do not confirm long-term adoption on their own.
BlockDAG’s visibility in these discussions has largely come from project-published token sale and technical claims, including fundraising totals, vesting terms, testnet throughput, and third-party audit references. Those details may be useful context for readers following early-stage projects, but they should be evaluated carefully and independently.
