"BlockDAG Unveils 2025 Roadmap: Beta Test Net, $30M Grants, New Talent"

BlockDAG's 5th AMA, held with over 800 attendees, provided a sneak peek into the project's ambitious plans for 2025. The event unveiled key developments, including a March 2025 beta test net launch, a $30 million grants program, and the introduction of fresh talent to drive the project forward.

The AMA highlighted the momentum of BlockDAG's presale, which has raised over $197 million and sold more than 18.5 billion BDAG coins. The current batch of BDAG coins is priced at $0.0248, offering an impressive 2,380% return since the presale began. BlockDAG's strategic approach, including a 350% purchase bonus with the code LISTING1000, showcases the project's focus on rewarding early participants and expanding its community.

One of the standout moments of the AMA was the introduction of key new team members. Marcus Xavier, the new Head of Learning, will lead the BlockDAG Academy, a comprehensive educational initiative. His background combines educational leadership with blockchain technology, and he has previously developed some of the first accredited blockchain qualifications globally. Marcus aims to build a three-tiered curriculum, from basic crypto knowledge to advanced BlockDAG network development.

On the mining front, Joshua Sack has joined to bolster BlockDAG's mining ecosystem. Based in Johannesburg, Joshua has hands-on experience running his own mining farm and plans to enhance the project's mining strategy. His focus on hardware innovation and community engagement aligns well with BlockDAG's mission to make mining accessible and scalable. These new appointments reflect BlockDAG's commitment to building a robust and knowledgeable team that can guide the project through its next phases.

BlockDAG's March 2025 beta test net launch is shaping into a pivotal moment for the project. Jeremy, the Chief Technology Officer, shared detailed updates on the performance testing framework and the preparations underway to ensure the network is stable, scalable, and secure. The test net will include rigorous stress testing, automatic load testing, and the introduction of visual dashboards for transparent performance monitoring.

The beta phase will engage the community through node operation incentives, dApp testing, and opportunities to provide critical feedback. These measures aim to fine-tune the BlockDAG network before it transitions to full public use. The project's
