The crypto market has seen explosive presales before — from Ethereum’s early raise to the billion-dollar cycle of 2017–2018. But in 2025, one project has captured that scale once again: BlockDAG (BDAG) . With over $388M raised , 25.8 billion coins sold , and adoption metrics that rival some post-mainnet projects, BlockDAG has achieved what is now being called the biggest presale in seven years . This milestone doesn’t just signal fundraising success. It suggests that BlockDAG is entering the market with more traction, adoption, and visibility than most new Layer 1s ever achieve, even years after launch. $388M Raised: A Historic Benchmark BlockDAG’s presale is currently in Batch 30 at $0.03 per token , and investors have already poured in $388M , edging toward an ambitious $600M target . For context: EOS raised $4B in 2017 but failed to maintain long-term momentum. Avalanche and Aptos raised smaller sums before achieving billion-dollar valuations. Few presales in the last seven years have crossed even the $300M threshold. BlockDAG’s ability to raise nearly $400M in 2025’s presale market — with no exchange listings yet — places it in the top tier of historical raises. One reason BlockDAG’s presale has outperformed is adoption. Unlike projects that raise capital with little user activity, BDAG has real-world traction already: 3 million users mining via the X1 mobile miner app , one of the largest pre-launch adoption bases in blockchain history. 19,000 ASIC miners sold , giving the network strong Proof-of-Work security before launch. 200,000+ holders engaged before listing, distributing supply widely across wallets. 4,500 developers building over 300 dApps , thanks to EVM compatibility. This ecosystem depth explains why BlockDAG has been able to sustain investor confidence across 30 presale batches. Whales Add Weight: $10M Pooled Institutional-style confidence has also played a role. In late August, two whales entered with allocations of $4.4M and $4.3M , dethroning the long-standing $3.8M leader. Together, whales have pooled over $10M into BDAG , a clear signal that big money trusts the project’s fundamentals. For retail buyers, whale participation adds urgency. When millions flow into a presale, it amplifies the narrative that supply is tightening and entry points are vanishing fast. Price Predictions: ROI Potential BlockDAG’s presale growth story also translates into compelling ROI potential: At $1: New Batch 30 investors ($0.03) could see 3,233% gains , while early Batch 1 buyers ($0.001) are already sitting on 2,900% ROI . At $5: BDAG would rival early Solana-style growth, giving investors 16,566% ROI . At $10: Long-term projections put BDAG in Ethereum-like territory, with 33,233% ROI for today’s presale buyers. These numbers aren’t empty speculation; they’re grounded in BDAG’s scale, adoption, and whale backing — all measurable metrics. Why the Biggest Presale in 7 Years Matters The size of BlockDAG’s presale isn’t just symbolic. It demonstrates: Liquidity readiness for post-listing exchanges. Community resilience , with 3M miners and 200K holders engaged. Investor confidence , with whales committing millions before launch. Developer traction , ensuring utility from day one. Unlike past presale giants that faltered after raising billions, BlockDAG has paired fundraising with adoption — making its scale sustainable, not speculative. A Historic Presale, A Future Contender By raising $388M and counting, BlockDAG has already made history with the biggest presale in seven years . More importantly, it has done so while building one of the largest pre-mainnet ecosystems in crypto history. With whales entering aggressively, and retail miners growing by the millions, BDAG isn’t just breaking records. It’s laying the foundation to compete with top 10 projects like Cardano and Dogecoin in the next cycle. For investors, the lesson is clear: presales of this scale don’t come often, and when they do, they often mark the beginning of the next big chapter in crypto.
