BlockDAG, a new player in the crypto market, has raised over $323 million during its presale despite having no circulating coins or trading pairs. This success demonstrates confidence in a network already functional for 200,000 users.
How Pre-Liquidity Funding Reflects Trust
So far, more than 23.3 billion BDAG coins have been sold to over 200,000 holders. These users are entering a network that’s already running. Key aspects of this presale include:
* Over $323 million raised without venture capital or pre-mined supply. * 2M+ active users on the X1 Miner app. * 18,000+ ASIC mining rigs sold before launch. * A fixed $0.05 listing price, with current access at just $0.0030.
The X1 Miner App as Proof of Real User Engagement
The X1 Miner app is not a test version. It ranks among the most downloaded crypto apps of 2025, with more than 2 million users mining BDAG through a mobile-first Proof-of-Engagement system. This level of adoption, without any incentives tied to trading, highlights real early usage. It shifts the presale mindset from 'buy and wait' to 'participate and build.'
How Demand Surfaces Before Liquidity Arrives
One of the most compelling aspects of BlockDAG’s growth is how demand is building even in the absence of liquidity. Each contribution reflects confidence in the roadmap and technology. This rare behaviour avoids the usual post-listing hype, price swings, or influence from large buyers. Upcoming launch events include:
* Week 6: Presale ends; X1 and TAP points convert to BDAG. * Week 4: Mainnet launches ahead of trading activity. * Week 3: Community nodes and mining pools go live. * Week 2: 40% of presale coins airdropped along with DEX and DeFi rollout.
Raising $323 million without trading options speaks volumes. It reflects a shift toward trust-based participation, where infrastructure matters more than headlines. If BlockDAG continues to develop as a platform with real utility, its approach to launching may prove essential.
