The year 2025 promises to be eventful for the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin and Ethereum continue to draw attention, but there are other promising projects worth a look this year. Let's take a closer look at four cryptocurrencies that demonstrate significant potential for growth.
BlockDAG: Presale and Technology
BlockDAG has become increasingly discussed in 2025, raising over $363 million during its presale. Over 24.7 billion BDAG tokens have already been sold, with the current price around $0.0016. This price point will remain until August 11, after which it will increase to $0.0276. A key feature is BlockDAG's technology dashboard that allows users to actively test trading strategies in real-time. Furthermore, the project is conducting a BTC auction, where all BDAG purchases before August 11 are included, directing funds to ecosystem development.
Chainlink: Real Data and Adoption
Chainlink continues to hold its position as the leading solution for real data since its launch. In August 2025, it launched Data Streams for US equities and ETFs, integrating with 37 blockchains. Major protocols have already implemented the new data. Currently, LINK is trading around $16.39, with forecasts indicating a potential price range between $20 and $40. If the price holds above the 200-day EMA, significant growth could be expected.
Stellar and Cardano: Key Updates
Stellar (XLM) is seeing one of its strongest performances this month, with token prices reaching $0.3925 after a recent 403% surge. Key drivers include network upgrades and a partnership with Visa. Cardano (ADA) is also making significant strides with the approval of a $71 million development fund to accelerate network growth, currently trading at around $0.7264, with analysts predicting potential growth to $1.50.
Among numerous cryptocurrencies, the four mentioned above stand out the most in 2025 due to real changes and active development. BlockDAG, Chainlink, Stellar, and Cardano demonstrate not just price growth, but also progress in technologies and user adoption.
