Polkadot News Today: Top Altcoins BlockDAG, Uniswap, Polygon, Polkadot Surge 3025% in Presale, 12.08%, 7.12%, 9.87% Weekly Gains

Top altcoins such as BlockDAG (BDAG), Uniswap (UNI), Polygon (POL), and Polkadot (DOT) are attracting renewed investor attention amid a broader stabilization in the cryptocurrency market. These projects highlight a shift toward utility-driven development and technical resilience, with each exhibiting distinct strengths in price performance, infrastructure, and market positioning.

BlockDAG (BDAG) has emerged as a standout with its presale surpassing $353 million, making it one of the largest early-stage fundraises in crypto history. The project has sold 24.4 billion tokens at $0.0016 each, with projections indicating a potential 3,025% return if the token reaches $0.05 by its August 11 global launch. A live Beta Testnet supports smart contracts, real-time tracking, and a developer environment, attracting 4,500 developers and 300 active applications. The DAG-based architecture, capable of processing 15,000 transactions per second, outperforms traditional blockchains, while listings on 20 exchanges—including MEXC and BitMart—ensure liquidity. The project’s roadmap includes scaling to 1,000 dApps by 2026, focusing on AI, DeFi, and NFTs [1].

Uniswap (UNI) has seen a 12.08% weekly gain, trading between $9.09 and $11.61. Over the past month, the token has risen 57.68%, supported by technical indicators suggesting oversold conditions: RSI at 35.19 and Stochastic at 6.768. Analysts note that breaking the $12.57 resistance could push the price toward $15.09, reflecting short-term optimism [2].

Polygon’s rebranded token, POL, surged 7.12% in a week and rebounded 41.84% from a 6-month low of -44.59%. A 10-day moving average of $0.2508 aligns with current price action, and a breach of $0.2795 resistance may target $0.3165, signaling potential for further gains. Technical indicators show an RSI of 37.71 and Stochastic of 23.05, suggesting undervaluation [2].

Polkadot (DOT) added 9.87% in a week, with a 30.33% gain over 30 days despite a 32.71% decline over six months. The RSI of 37.17 and Stochastic reading of 23.95 indicate possible upside, with $5.13 as the key resistance level. A sustained move past this threshold could push the price toward $5.97, reflecting renewed momentum [2].

The performance of these projects underscores a market focus on protocols addressing scaling challenges through diverse approaches. BlockDAG’s DAG architecture, Uniswap’s automated market maker (AMM) dominance, Polygon’s Ethereum Layer 2 expansion, and Polkadot’s interoperability model each position themselves as solutions to critical crypto infrastructure needs. However, BlockDAG’s projected 3,025% return hinges on the August 11 listing price assumption, a forward-looking estimate not guaranteed [1].

Investors are advised to conduct due diligence, as market conditions can shift rapidly. While technical indicators for UNI, POL, and DOT suggest short-term optimism, long-term success depends on execution against ambitious roadmaps and broader market adoption.
