The year 2025 promises to bring interesting changes to the cryptocurrency market. Technological advancements and demand for certain projects could define which coins stay in focus next year.
BlockDAG: Scaling Leader
BlockDAG is wrapping up its preparations for the mainnet launch and has already attracted significant attention. With over 325,000 active participants from 130 countries and $403 million raised, this project has demonstrated high demand. A unique feature of BlockDAG is that it has already created a full system prior to its official launch, including a mobile miner and other ecosystem components.
Cardano: Stability and Innovations
Cardano remains in the top 10 cryptocurrencies, with active work on improving its protocol. In September 2025, ADA trades around $0.28 and continues to attract interest thanks to updates that improve its performance and scalability for smart contracts. However, for Cardano's price to grow, more activity from large applications and enterprises is needed.
Pepe and Bitcoin Cash: Unexpected Players
Pepe, despite expectations to fade away, maintains its stability trading at around $0.00000102. Active community engagement and cultural events help it remain relevant. Bitcoin Cash has returned to the spotlight with discussions about a potential ETF, currently priced at around $188. BCH keeps its focus on fast payments and low fees, which supports its demand among users.
As 2025 approaches, it becomes clear that successful cryptocurrencies will be those with real user engagement and productivity. BlockDAG appears most promising, but Cardano, Pepe, and Bitcoin Cash also deserve attention for their unique advantages.
