Cold Wallet, Ondo, Stellar, and Hedera Gain Bullish Momentum on Real-World Utility and Adoption

Cold Wallet (CWT), Ondo (ONDO), Stellar (XLM), and Hedera (HBAR) are being highlighted as top bullish cryptos for 2025, driven by their real-world utility, institutional partnerships, and scalable adoption. These projects are being positioned not just as speculative assets but as foundational platforms with tangible use cases and infrastructure backing their long-term value [1].

Cold Wallet is redefining the digital wallet space by introducing a rewards-driven model. Users earn CWT tokens for conducting transactions such as paying gas fees, making swaps, and moving funds. The platform recently acquired Plus Wallet in a $270 million deal, adding over 2 million active users to its ecosystem. This acquisition has accelerated its adoption and created a substantial user base that is already engaged with CWT rewards. As of its current presale stage, the project has raised $5.9 million, with a current price of $0.00998 and a projected launch price of $0.3517 [1].

Ondo is capitalizing on the growing trend of tokenized real-world assets. Its flagship product, OUSG, offers blockchain users exposure to BlackRock’s US Treasury ETF, bridging traditional finance with on-chain liquidity. The project's institutional-grade offerings and regulatory awareness place it at the forefront of financial innovation. As more traditional institutions explore blockchain-based assets, ONDO is well-positioned to capture significant value as tokenization gains broader acceptance [1].

Stellar (XLM) continues to strengthen its role in cross-border payments through strategic collaborations with major players like MoneyGram and Circle. Its network facilitates fast, low-cost, and globally accessible transactions, making it a key player in the regulated blockchain finance sector. With consistent real-world use cases and enterprise-grade partnerships, Stellar remains a compelling option for those seeking long-term exposure to cross-border payment infrastructure [1].

Hedera (HBAR) is gaining traction as an enterprise-focused distributed ledger technology (DLT) platform. Unlike traditional blockchains, Hedera utilizes a directed acyclic graph (DAG) architecture that supports high-speed, low-cost transactions. Its governance model includes major corporations like Google, IBM, and Boeing, which lend credibility and stability to its infrastructure. HBAR is used to fuel network operations, including smart contracts and file storage, and the token is already seeing adoption in sectors such as supply chain and digital identity [1].

The market takeaway is clear: these projects stand out for their real utility and active adoption rather than short-term hype. Cold Wallet’s user acquisition, Ondo’s tokenized asset gateway, Stellar’s global payment network, and Hedera’s enterprise-grade infrastructure collectively represent a diverse but compelling set of long-term investment opportunities [1].
