Funding Boost for BlockDAG Before Global Debut Amid XRP Controversy and Shiba Inu Token Mass Sell-off
In the dynamic world of cryptocurrency, three projects are making waves: BlockDAG, XRP, and Shiba Inu. Each offers unique features and potential, as demonstrated by their recent developments.
BlockDAG: A Promising Rising Star
BlockDAG, currently in a highly active presale phase, has raised approximately $370 million by August 2025, selling over 25 billion tokens. The project, which combines Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus, has shown exceptional price growth in presale stages, with an increase of around 2660% ROI from initial batches.
BlockDAG's hybrid architecture promises high scalability, with transaction speeds estimated around 10,000-15,000 TPS. It also offers EVM compatibility, smart contract functionality, mobile mining via the X1 app, and multi-layer incentive rewards. The project has passed key security audits by firms like CertiK and Halborn and plans listings on major exchanges such as MEXC and BitMart.
BlockDAG's key strengths lie in its cutting-edge technology, impressive fundraising success, strong leadership, and growing real-world mining and user engagement. The project is currently raising over $364.5 million and is entering a crucial phase with its $0.0016 GLOBAL LAUNCH Release approaching.
XRP: A Mature Project Focused on Payments
XRP, a more mature project, boasts a market cap of around $33 billion and a trading price of roughly $0.61. It is widely recognized by financial institutions and has benefited from institutional partnerships and legal clarity. XRP's focus is on cross-border payments and regulatory compliance.
However, criticisms have been levelled at XRP. Former Wall Street executive Fred Krueger has questioned its practical use, stating that very few people actively engage with the network. A 2020 report showed that 96% of XRP transactions had no economic value, according to Krueger, framing XRP as more speculative than functional.
Shiba Inu: Beyond the Meme
Shiba Inu started as a meme coin but has evolved into a broader ecosystem with Layer 2 scaling solutions and decentralized exchange features. It has a market cap of around $10 billion and 1.5 million active wallets. The community's strong adoption and recent price gains, such as a 12% weekly increase, demonstrate its growth.
In comparison to BlockDAG and XRP, Shiba Inu has shifted beyond its meme coin origins, with a focus on Layer 2 scaling solutions and decentralized exchange features.
The Future of Cryptocurrency
As these projects continue to evolve, it remains to be seen which will emerge as the most successful. BlockDAG, with its impressive presale performance and technical promise, could challenge established projects like XRP and Shiba Inu if it successfully launches and scales its ecosystem.
For those interested in participating in the BlockDAG presale, it can be joined at https://purchase.blockdag.network. The presale continues until the $600 million cap is reached, but the favorable entry multiple ends with the GLOBAL LAUNCH Release on August 11, after which the presale price will increase to $0.0276, marking a 17x jump from the current price.

- The proudly innovative BlockDAG project, which has already raised over $370 million in its presale phase, is showcasing its unique blend of Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus technology, selling tokens exceeding 25 billion.
- As cryptocurrency collaborations actively unfold, XRP's maturity within the financial sector, backed by partnerships and legal clarity, contrasts with the crypto, Shiba Inu, as a once popular meme coin that has transcended its origins by developing a broader ecosystem using technology.
