Investors Shift to RTX for Real-World Crypto Utility Over Speculation

New investors in the cryptocurrency market are increasingly favoring PayFi altcoins like Remittix (RTX) over established projects such as SUI and SOL, driven by the promise of exponential returns and tangible real-world utility. The rising interest in utility-driven altcoins reflects a broader shift among investors seeking not just speculative gains, but solutions to existing financial infrastructure gaps. RTX, with its focus on cross-chain payments and crypto-to-fiat gateway, has captured attention by offering scalable and low-cost solutions for global remittances and business transactions.

At a current price of $0.1050, Remittix has already raised over $24.2 million through its presale, selling more than 648 million tokens. This strong demand has translated into confirmed listings on major exchanges including BitMart and LBank, with a third listing reportedly in the works. These developments have provided RTX with immediate liquidity and increased visibility, positioning it as one of the most active altcoins under $1. The project’s roadmap includes a beta wallet launch in late September, designed to support over 40 cryptocurrencies and 30 fiat currencies, with real-time FX conversion and cross-border transaction capabilities across more than 30 countries [1].

The wallet’s launch is seen as a pivotal milestone for RTX, enabling the platform to directly compete with traditional payment systems by offering transparency, low gas fees, and rapid settlement. Unlike many speculative crypto projects, Remittix has secured adoption channels through partnerships and institutional support, with over 30 nations already integrated into its payment ecosystem. A key differentiator is the project’s business API, which aims to onboard liquidity providers and expand use cases for businesses requiring secure global payouts. These factors have contributed to Remittix being labeled as one of the top DeFi projects of 2025 [1].

In comparison, SUI, the native token of the Sui blockchain, has faced mixed performance despite growing institutional interest. The token is currently trading at $3.31, with a market cap of $11.73 billion. Recent developments, including the launch of tokenized gold and institutional custody services by Swiss banks like Sygnum and Amina Bank, have added momentum to the network. However, the price remains below its all-time high of $5.35, and its monthly decline of 13.6% raises concerns about its ability to sustain long-term growth. Despite record DeFi growth in Q2 2025, the SUI price has failed to match expectations, indicating a challenge in translating ecosystem expansion into price appreciation [2].

Solana (SOL), meanwhile, remains a dominant force in the blockchain space, with a price currently hovering around $202.87. The network continues to attract strong transaction volumes and maintains a market cap of approximately $110 billion. Analysts predict a gradual price movement between $201 and $209 in the coming weeks, though the lack of explosive growth has led many investors to seek alternatives offering higher potential returns. While Solana’s ecosystem remains robust, particularly in NFTs and decentralized applications, the appeal of projects like Remittix—offering both utility and scarcity—has drawn attention away from more mature chains [4].

The migration of capital toward PayFi projects is underscored by the growing appeal of RTX. Investors are drawn to the platform’s dual focus on solving real-world payment issues and delivering scalable adoption through its beta wallet. The project’s community-driven approach, including a $250,000 giveaway for early participants, has further amplified interest and participation. With over 25,000 token holders and rising, RTX’s momentum suggests it is well on its way to becoming a major player in the DeFi landscape. As the global payments market continues to evolve, projects that integrate blockchain with traditional financial systems are likely to see the most sustained success [1].
