HYPE Surpasses Tron in Trading Fees, BlockDAG Pre-Launch Raising $374M, SEI Breaks $0.30 Resistance

The cryptocurrency market continues to see fierce competition among emerging and established projects, with Hyperliquid (HYPE), Sei (SEI), and the pre-launch phenomenon BlockDAG (BDAG) dominating headlines. As trading volumes and pre-launch infrastructure investments gain traction, investors are closely monitoring price movements and platform developments to assess their next moves.

Hyperliquid has surged to the top of the trading fee rankings, surpassing major blockchains like Tron in a single month. During this period, HYPE generated $97.7 million in fees, outpacing Ethereum, Solana, and Binance Chain combined. The project’s annualized revenue has reached $1.45 billion, while total fees have reached $1.2 billion, representing 85% and 49% growth over the previous period, respectively [1]. Despite these strong metrics, the HYPE token has fallen 9.63% in the last month. However, a 12% rebound in the past week suggests renewed buying pressure. The platform has also established an “Assistance Fund,” which uses 97% of all fees to buy back HYPE tokens, accumulating over $1.2 billion in reserves as a potential support mechanism [1].

On the technical side, HYPE is currently forming an ascending triangle pattern, which traders view as a bullish sign. The price has already broken through initial resistance levels but faces another key hurdle ahead. Clearing this next level could trigger a rapid upward move, supported by strong fundamentals and growing liquidity [1].

Meanwhile, SEI has experienced a significant breakout, moving above the $0.30 resistance level after months of consolidation between $0.15 and $0.30. This move forms an ascending triangle, a classic bullish continuation pattern. The RSI and MACD indicators suggest a strong upward push, though RSI nearing overbought territory indicates a potential short-term pullback. Over the past 24 hours, SEI traded between $0.295 and $0.315, closing at $0.2997, a 5.59% decline on $189 million in trading volume [1]. The Chaikin Money Flow is slightly negative at -0.03, and MACD shows minor weakness, but the low volume suggests limited selling pressure. If SEI remains above $0.30, the bullish momentum could continue, with $0.35 as the next key target [1].

The most anticipated development, however, is the pre-launch momentum of BlockDAG. The project has already raised $374 million and is currently in Batch 29 at a price of $0.0276, with a confirmed launch price of $0.05. This clear pricing trajectory has sparked a buying rush, especially among early investors who see the potential for early gains [1].

BlockDAG’s infrastructure has been a key driver of its momentum. The X1 mobile mining app has been adopted by over 2.5 million users worldwide, offering a low-barrier entry point for mining without the need for high-cost equipment. For those seeking higher returns, the X-series miners, including the X10 model, are capable of producing up to 200 BDAG tokens per day and connect via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet, providing a plug-and-play experience [1].

Additionally, the Dashboard V4 has evolved into an advanced exchange simulator, offering real-time BDAG price charts, wallet tracking, order book depth, referral analytics, and leaderboards. This tool not only supports market analysis but also fosters community engagement before the official launch [1].

BlockDAG has also secured 20 confirmed exchange listings, ensuring immediate global trading access. The project has further expanded its reach through partnerships with sports teams like the Seattle Seawolves and Seattle Orcas, offering fan tokens, NFTs, and exclusive matchday benefits [1]. These strategic moves have positioned BlockDAG as a well-rounded ecosystem, with funding, infrastructure, and user base already in place before launch.

While HYPE and SEI remain in the spotlight due to their fee dominance and technical breakouts, both projects rely heavily on post-launch execution. BlockDAG, in contrast, is entering the market with a fully formed ecosystem, supported by $374 million in funding, 2.5 million miners, and guaranteed listings on major exchanges. This pre-launch readiness gives it a significant edge over competitors and positions it as a front-runner for 2025 [1].
