Hyperliquid News Today: Unverified Leaks Spark BlockDAG Frenzy: Can Hype Translate to $0.05 Launch?

The cryptocurrency market is abuzz with speculation that BlockDAG (BDAG) is on the verge of a historic price surge, driven by leaked documents suggesting imminent listings on Coinbase and Kraken. While the project has not officially confirmed the details, the purported agreements—outlining integration fees, marketing budgets, and liquidity commitments—have intensified investor interest, with some analysts labeling BDAG as the "top crypto buy of 2025", according to a CryptoNinjas report.

The leaked documents, first reported by influencer Crypto Rover in a TechFinancials post, reveal a $800,000+ financial commitment to Kraken, including $300,000 for technical integration, $300,000 for marketing, and $300,000 in liquidity deposits. A parallel Listing Framework Agreement with Coinbase, which includes BDAG/USDT and BDAG/USD trading pairs, further fuels expectations, the CryptoNinjas report noted. These moves position BlockDAG to follow in the footsteps of high-speed layer-1 projects like Ethereum and Solana, but at an accelerated pace. While Ethereum took over a year from ICO to exchange listing, BlockDAG's rumored listings could materialize within months of its presale's completion, the CryptoNinjas piece added.

The presale itself has raised over $431 million, selling 27 billion tokens and attracting 312,000 holders, according to the CryptoNinjas report. With Batch 31 tokens priced at $0.0015, early buyers are eyeing the $0.05 launch price as a potential catalyst for exponential gains, as noted in a CoinEdition article. The project's hybrid Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) + Proof-of-Work architecture, capable of 15,000 transactions per second (TPS) in theory and 1,400 TPS in testnet trials, adds technical credibility to the narrative, the CryptoNinjas report observed. Over 3 million users mine via the X1 app, and 20,000 X-series hardware miners have been distributed globally, further decentralizing the network before launch, the CryptoNinjas coverage added.

Market psychology is amplifying the frenzy. Analysts note that the leak has triggered a "self-fulfilling breakout," with surging social media engagement and presale allocations tightening as demand outpaces supply, the CryptoNinjas report argued. Crypto market commentator That Martini Guy, while cautious, acknowledged the "perfect information storm" created by the leak, even if the documents prove unverified, the same report quoted. This dynamic mirrors past crypto rallies, where narrative-driven momentum often precedes fundamental validation.

Despite the hype, skepticism remains. Critics argue that unconfirmed leaks carry inherent risks, and the project's success hinges on executing its ambitious roadmap. BlockDAG's leadership, however, emphasizes transparency, with a Binance AMA scheduled for October 24 to address community questions, as reported by CoinEdition. The project's "Genesis Day" on November 26 will mark the transition from presale to mainnet launch, with final milestones including $600 million in presale funds and global miner distribution, according to a Coindoo report.

As the countdown to Genesis Day continues, BlockDAG's velocity in adoption, infrastructure, and market sentiment has solidified its status as a top contender for 2025. Whether the leaks are verified or not, the project's blend of technical innovation and rapid traction has already positioned it as a disruptive force in the crypto landscape, CoinEdition observed.
