HBAR Jumps 305% YTD, XLM Gains 62% as BlockDAG Targets 17x Price Surge in 2025

HBAR and XLM have posted significant gains in 2025, with HBAR surging 305% year-to-date and XLM rising 62% following a bullish technical breakout[1]. HBAR’s growth is attributed to institutional adoption, regulatory support, and strategic partnerships, including the U.S. Genius Act, which has driven demand for Hedera’s USDC stablecoin. Retail interest has also increased, supported by its listing on Robinhood and endorsement from high-profile figures such as Kevin O’Leary[2]. Meanwhile, XLM has shown renewed strength as it breaks above a key resistance level, with analysts noting increased trading volume and positioning for a potential move toward $1.29[3].

Despite these impressive performances, BlockDAG (BDAG) is emerging as a standout asset in the current crypto landscape. Currently in the 29th batch of its presale, BDAG is priced at $0.0016 and is scheduled to increase to $0.0276 on August 11, representing a projected 17x price jump[4]. Over $367 million has already been raised in its presale, and it has secured listings on major exchanges including MEXC, BitMart, and CoinStore[5]. The project’s technological foundation, which merges blockchain with DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) and includes EVM compatibility, is attracting developers and enterprises alike[6]. Additionally, a live Dashboard V4 with trading simulations and wallet integrations, as well as a mobile X1 mining app with over 2.5 million users, further supports its growing adoption[7].

BlockDAG’s presale has already delivered a 2,660% return for early contributors since the first batch, outpacing both XLM and HBAR’s current growth trajectories[8]. Analysts note that while HBAR has already seen much of its upside priced in and XLM is in a breakout phase, BDAG offers a unique opportunity due to its low current valuation and high potential for future appreciation[9]. The upcoming price increase to $0.0276 is expected to attract a broader investor base and accelerate its path to widespread adoption.

The project’s Proof-of-Engagement consensus model is designed to reward daily user activity, enhancing accessibility and community participation[10]. With confirmed listings and a clear roadmap for expansion, BDAG appears to be positioning itself as a key player in the 2025 crypto market. As the deadline for the current presale price approaches, investors are being encouraged to act quickly to capture the projected 17x price increase[11].
