Solana faces price pressure, while Cardano struggles to reclaim the $1.00 mark. Meanwhile, 1Fuel (OFT) is gaining traction as investors seek high-growth opportunities. With its cross-chain trading, AI-powered wallet, and strong presale momentum, 1Fuel is positioning itself as a major player. As Solana and Cardano battle market fluctuations, could 1Fuel be the breakout project investors are looking for?
Solana has achieved remarkable growth in the DeFi market to become the second-largest blockchain system for DeFi applications this current quarter. The total value locked (TVL) on Solana has reached $8.6 billion. DApp revenue also soared by 213%, Fueled by increased speculative trading on meme coins and AI tokens.
Raydium and Jupiter Perps have been key drivers of Solana’s growth. Raydium’s TVL climbed 86% to $2.1 billion, while Jupiter Perps jumped 130% to $1.7 billion.
Solana gained momentum from the growing interest in meme coins which began following the 2024 U.S. elections. The price of SOL stands at $198 following its peak in the previous month. However, analysts remain bullish. The combination of sustained DeFi development and expanding network ecosystem will drive Solana to reach $500 in the year 2025.
The launch of the Staked Cardano ETP allows investors to own Cardano (ADA) directly while earning a 2% annual passive income through staking rewards. This feature makes the Cardano ETP unique, offering both passive income and exposure to ADA’s growth potential.
The ETP is fully backed by ADA tokens stored in Coinbase cold storage. It operates as a euro-denominated asset, making it easier for Finnish investors to access. The product levies a 1.49% management fee.
The recent performance of Cardano shows a decline through a 26% fall in the month and a 22% drop during the last week. Despite this, its development team continues to innovate. The recent Mithril upgrade introduced a stake-based multi-signature scheme to enhance scalability and security. By providing certified snapshots of the blockchain state, Mithril speeds up node synchronization and supports secure voting and data exchange.
1Fuel is gaining attention for its bold cross-chain vision. Unlike many decentralized exchanges that avoid cross-chain trading due to its complexity, 1Fuel is making it a core feature from the start. This approach aims to pull liquidity from across the blockchain space, helping the project grow rapidly.
Investors are also excited about 1Fuel’s AI-powered wallet, which enhances trading strategies. The wallet allows users to monitor trades in one place and adjust strategies based on market conditions. AI integration ensures smart trade execution, even when traders aren’t available to react.
Security and privacy remain a priority. 1Fuel includes built-in mixing features and military-grade cold storage, allowing users to move assets discreetly and store them safely offline. The project also introduces a crypto credit and debit card, enabling seamless cryptocurrency spending wherever traditional bank cards are accepted.
The 1Fuel presale has been a major success. Investors have purchased over 198 million tokens, generating over $2 million in sales across the first three stages. The token price has already climbed from $0.010 to $0.018. Analysts predict that 1Fuel could achieve 100x growth once it secures exchange listings, solidifying its position as a rising force in the crypto market.
