BlockDAG’s $323M Raise and Live Testnet Signal a New Era for Top Layer 1 Projects in 2025

June 26, 2025 By CryptoReporter

In the world of Layer 1 projects, BlockDAG is defying typical expectations by not just marketing vague promises but delivering real, working infrastructure. Unlike many crypto projects, BlockDAG is already showing tangible progress before its coin even hits exchanges. 

With over $323 million raised and more than 2 million active X1 miners, BlockDAG(BDAG) is one of the few projects where real tools and working systems are being provided before launch. This sets it apart from many others that only talk about future developments without any tangible progress.

A Live Testnet That Works

Most testnets in the crypto world are simply placeholders or symbolic environments meant to show potential. However, BlockDAG has taken a different approach by launching a fully functional testnet. It allows developers to:

  • Deploy EVM-compatible smart contracts

  • Use a no-code builder for creating dApps

  • Interact with the network tools without needing BlockDAG coins

This live testnet is not just a demo; it’s already handling real logic, transactions, and contracts well before the coin even begins circulating. This proactive approach places BlockDAG in a select category of Layer 1 projects that focus on real utility from day one.

Builders Onboard Early

Many projects claim they will bring developers on board, but BlockDAG is already doing so. Developer grants are active, and the no-code tools are live and in use today. The apps are being prototyped while the network is still in presale, which allows early adopters to benefit not only from the potential upside but also from engaging in product development. 

Unlike most presale projects, where the ecosystem isn’t in place yet, BlockDAG’s active infrastructure and growing community make it a special case in this space. With over 23. billion BlockDAG coins sold and $323 million raised, BlockDAG already has a large community building and mining. This is not just hype; it’s real utility being created early in the process.

The No-Code Advantage

BlockDAG’s no-code smart contract builder is a game-changer in the crypto ecosystem. It allows non-developers to create smart contracts and participate in the network’s growth. This opens up BlockDAG to a wider audience, making it a platform that anyone can engage with, regardless of their technical skills. By lowering the barrier to entry for smart contract creation, BlockDAG can drive faster adoption and scale the network much quicker than many other platforms, including Ethereum during its early years.

The result? More decentralized apps will be built, and the network will grow beyond the crypto-native community. The accessibility of these tools is what will set BlockDAG apart and ensure that it stands out in today’s crypto market.

What This Means for Early Buyers

BlockDAG’s current price of $0.0030 offers an extraordinary opportunity before it jumps to $0.0080. With the confirmed listing price set at $0.05, the ROI potential is massive.

However, what’s more important than just the numbers is the fact that BlockDAG is a living, breathing ecosystem. The testnet is active, miners are mining, and builders are building, all before the coins even hit the market. This contrasts with most Layer 1 presale projects, where there is little more than speculation until the coin launches. BlockDAG is already ahead of the game, and buyers can get in early to benefit from the project’s genuine progress.

A Glimpse Into Post-Launch Activity

BlockDAG’s six-week pre-listing roadmap is clear and precise. The stages will unfold as follows:

  • Week 6: Presale ends, staking begins, and X1/TAP points convert to BDAG.

  • Week 4: Mainnet goes live, along with mining infrastructure.

  • Week 3: Community-run nodes and mining pools become operational.

  • Week 2: 40% of presale coins airdropped, and DeFi infrastructure (DEX, bridge, launchpad) is deployed.

  • Listing Week: BDAG begins its listing on the lead exchange, followed by wider listings on other platforms.

This strategic roadmap is designed to prepare the ecosystem before liquidity hits, ensuring that when the price discovery phase begins, it’s based on real utility and not speculative hype.

Why Timing Matters

BlockDAG’s unique approach rewards those who act early. The utility of the system already exists, but widespread awareness is still catching up. The current price of $0.0030 is an opportunity for early participants to join a functioning network before the masses rush in.

As liquidity approaches and more exposure arrives, the value of BlockDAG is set to rise rapidly, with the price increasing to $0.0080 soon. The opportunity to get in now won’t last long; after the presale ends, the price will rise sharply. For anyone paying attention, the time to act is now.

The Final Verdict

In a market where most projects rush to list their coins before infrastructure is ready, BlockDAG has taken a different route. By building a functioning ecosystem before launching, BlockDAG ensures that when liquidity enters the market, the network will be fully operational and supported by a solid community. 

With over $323M raised, a working testnet, active builders, and a clear roadmap to launch, BlockDAG is setting itself apart as one of the top layer 1 projects. This is a rare opportunity in crypto, and now is the time to get involved.
