Could Polkadot and XRP See ETFs In Q1? Analysts Are Choosing This DeFi Alternative

February 23, 2025 By Crypto Reporter PR

The race for cryptocurrency ETFs is heating up with major asset managers filing for Polkadot and XRP backed funds. While these developments spark excitement, both DOT and XRP are struggling to maintain a positive price action.

Amid this uncertainty, Lunex Network’s DeFi protocol is stealing the spotlight. With a revolutionary hybrid trading model and skyrocketing presale success, Lunex Network is becoming a go-to altcoin for investors seeking stability and high returns.

Polkadot (DOT) Struggles to Stay Afloat as ETF Hype Fades

Polkadot’s price is under significant bearish pressure despite a recent ETF filing. Just three months after reaching the $8 milestone, Polkadot’s price recorded a massive 40% decline.

This bearish wave persists despite significant technological developments in the DOT ecosystem. For instance, Polkadot 2.0 is all set to improve the efficiency, scalability and usability of the network. Polkadot’s team is also preparing for asynchronous backing and elastic scaling to enhance production speeds for parachains.

However, Polkadot’s price remains unaffected by these developments as DOT is currently selling for $4.95 after a weekly decrease of 3.35%.

XRP’s Price Swings Wildly – Can an ETF Approval Trigger a Rally?

XRP experienced significant bullish momentum after a recent ETF filing by Grayscale. The increased market optimism around XRP suggests that other asset managers like Bitwise, Canary Capital and 21Shares may also be eyeing XRP ETF products.

Despite these optimistic conditions, XRP’s price is still consolidating within a pennant pattern. XRP is currently trading at $2.69 after an intraday increase of 5%. XRP’s daily chart also reflects an unstable market sentiment as the token trades above the 100-EMA and 200-EMA trendlines despite a bearish Momentum Indicator.

If the XRP ETF application is approved, XRP’s price could record a significant rally toward $3.59 in Q2. However, a shift in market sentiment could trigger increased selling pressure and push XRP’s price down to the $2.20 support.

Lunex Network (LNEX) Disrupts DeFi with Next-Gen Hybrid Trading Model

Lunex Network is a Web3-based DeFi platform designed to facilitate cross-chain trading at the lowest cost. This cross-chain interoperability has helped Lunex Network raise over $7.2 million during its presale, with analysts predicting returns of up to 1800% before the token’s official launch.

Lunex Network’s no-KYC policy brings simplicity to mainstream exchange platforms. By eliminating centralized control, Lunex Network promises transparency, unlimited liquidity, and 100% slippage-free transactions to all users.

The platform offers a mobile exchange that enables spot trading of over 50,000 cryptocurrency pairs across different blockchains. This removes the need for third-party wallets like MetaMask or Trust Wallet by integrating Web3-powered smart contracts, giving traders a seamless cross-chain trading experience.

Beyond trading, Lunex Network has also captured the attention of the DeFi market with its long-term utility. Investors who purchase LNEX tokens during the presale can start staking immediately and secure up to 18% APY in as little as 30 days. After the token’s official launch, long-term LNEX holders receive a fixed percentage of Lunex Network’s revenue through a regular buyback mechanism. The repurchased LNEX are distributed to current holders as staking rewards, giving investors a consistent passive income.

LNEX tokens are currently selling for just $0.007, making now the ideal time to invest while the token is still in its presale. Analysts expect Lunex Network to deliver higher returns than both DOT and XRP in 2025 and as a result many investors are diversifying to optimize their returns.
