Some projects are focused on upgrades. Others are working on adoption. BlockDAG is managing both at once, and more. Solana is testing resistance around $210 as it eyes a breakout. Polkadot is advancing governance upgrades and community rewards, yet price action remains weak below key support.
In contrast, BlockDAG (BDAG) has already raised nearly $405 million in presale funds, sold 26.2 billion coins, and brought in over 3 million daily miners through its X1 app. That puts it in rare company, alongside names like Avalanche and Aptos that also passed this capital milestone. While others adjust, BlockDAG is moving toward deployment with results already on the board.
Crossing $405 million in presale funding is rare. Avalanche did it, and so did Aptos. Now, BlockDAG has joined them, with $405 million raised and more than 26.2 billion coins sold. This isn’t just another presale marker, it’s the base of a growing ecosystem.
The numbers make the story clear. Over 312,000 holders are already on board, with more joining each day. The X1 app has 3 million active daily miners, building habits before exchanges even open. Hardware delivery is scaling fast, with 19,700 units of the X10, X30, and X100 already out, and 2,000 more shipping weekly. Community growth is also global, spanning over 130 countries and 325,000+ members across Telegram, Discord, and other platforms.
The financial side is equally striking. Batch 30 is priced at $0.03, showing a 2,900% ROI from Batch 1. Yet, the project has locked a $0.0013 price until October 1, giving late buyers the same entry as early ones. This combination makes BlockDAG one of the best performing crypto today, not only for its presale price but also for timing and accessibility.
Looking forward, the BDAG Deployment Event in Singapore with Coinstore will mark the next stage. At this point, the $405 million isn’t hype, it’s proof. Few projects ever reach this tier. Fewer still arrive with a working ecosystem.
Polkadot developers are working toward 500-millisecond parachain blocks by year-end, with benchmarks already in testing, according to Basti Köcher. Governance is active too. Referendum 1729 passed with 96% support to build Treasury reserves in USDC and USDT. Voting is underway on Referendum 1740, focused on reducing HRMP pending messages to improve cross-chain transfers. Meanwhile, the Treasury is backing adoption through projects like the Inter Miami rewards platform.
On price, DOT fell 4%, sliding under $3.80 support and landing near $3.75. Trading volume spiked past 2.2 million, and repeated failures to push above $3.90 show sellers are in control.
Adoption efforts continue. Coins.ph launched a deposit raffle tied to Polkadot transfers, rewarding users for on-chain stablecoin activity. Together, upgrades, governance, and community rewards show progress, even as market sentiment turns cautious.
Solana bounced back from $194 and reclaimed ground above $210, but resistance at $212 has slowed its advance. Current support is near $200, with $194 acting as a backup floor. Resistance levels at $220 and $227 are being watched as possible breakout zones if momentum holds.
Technically, Solana remains in a solid position, trading above the 100-hour moving average and above the 50% Fibonacci retracement from its recent rally. Still, signs of profit-taking are emerging. Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) has reached 0.30, a level where corrections often start, and long-term holders are trimming positions.
Yet optimism continues thanks to institutional interest and speculation around the upcoming Alpenglow upgrade. If Solana flips the $206–$208 range into support, the path toward $227 becomes more realistic, especially if ETF enthusiasm lifts large-cap coins.
Solana is testing resistance levels, and Polkadot is pushing infrastructure upgrades, but BlockDAG is already showing what execution looks like. With nearly $405 million raised, 26.2 billion coins sold, and millions of miners active daily on the X1 app, BlockDAG has proven that adoption is real and positioned itself as a transformative leader within global markets.
The locked $0.0013 entry price until October 1 gives late buyers the same chance as early ones. As the Singapore deployment event with Coinstore approaches, BlockDAG isn’t just preparing, it’s expanding on what’s already in motion. While Solana and Polkadot are building for tomorrow, BlockDAG is delivering today.
