The post Filecoin & Bonk Build Strength While BlockDAG’s $435M Raise & Value Era Showcases Sustainable Growth appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Disclaimer: This content is a sponsored article.

The crypto market is stabilizing as major tokens regain momentum. Filecoin’s (FIL) price surge signals renewed accumulation after extended selling pressure, while the Bonk (BONK) price recovery underscores the strength of Solana’s community-driven ecosystem. These movements reflect growing confidence across both infrastructure and meme segments of the market. Amid this shift, BlockDAG is redefining presale credibility through its $435 million Value Era, focused on delivery, liquidity, and sustainability. Currently priced at $0.005 in Batch 32, the project has only 4.3 billion coins left to be sold and attracted 312,000+ holders, 20,000+ miners, and 3.5 million+ X1 users. Supported by an $86 million institutional allocation and a 40/60 vesting model, BlockDAG’s disciplined structure places it among the top crypto projects positioned for 2025’s expansion phase. Filecoin Strengthens as Network Utility Drives a 4% Surge Filecoin’s (FIL) price surge of 4 percent, reported by CoinDesk, reflects resilient demand for decentralized data storage solutions. After a brief market pullback, Filecoin rebounded as on-chain data showed rising network activity and steady storage adoption from enterprise users. The project’s long-standing focus on providing scalable, secure storage continues to differentiate it from other infrastructure-based cryptos.Analysts note that Filecoin has found technical support around recent lows, indicating strong buying interest from long-term holders. If network expansion continues at its current pace, FIL could attempt to break above key resistance zones in the coming weeks. Its rebound highlights the market’s preference for projects anchored in practical utility rather than speculation, a theme…

The post What Happens If ETH Inflates and XRP Leads Liquidity appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. What is the looming power shift between ETH and XRP? Since Ethereum’s Merge update in 2022, the network’s transition to a deflationary model has steadily reduced the supply of Ether (ETH), increasing its scarcity and reinforcing long-term investor confidence. The reduced supply has elevated ETH beyond a simple utility token, positioning it as a potential store of value within the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem. In contrast, XRP (XRP) has carved out a distinct role as a bridge asset, facilitating instant cross-border liquidity for banks and global payment networks. However, if ETH’s deflationary rate slows, its scarcity advantage could weaken. In the scenario XRP emerges as the leader in global liquidity flows, a significant shift may follow. Such a reversal could reshape the dynamics of the cryptocurrency sector. It could influence institutional adoption, payment systems, market valuations, competitive positioning and the broader future of blockchain-based finance. Did you know? Ethereum introduced smart contracts in 2015, paving the way for decentralized applications (DApps), non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the broader decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. How ETH’s deflation works and if it could turn inflationary ETH’s deflationary nature originates from Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) 1559, which introduced a fee-burning mechanism. Under this system, a portion of each transaction’s base fee is permanently removed from circulation rather than distributed to miners or validators. During periods of high network activity, the amount of ETH burned can exceed the ETH issued as staking rewards, leading to net deflation. This trend, which intensified after the 2022 Merge, has steadily reduced the total supply of ETH. As users increasingly adopt layer-2 solutions, such as Arbitrum and Optimism, transaction activity on the Ethereum mainnet has declined. This has resulted in lower gas fees and reduced burn rates. At the same time, validator rewards have increased, boosting the issuance of new ETH.…

The post Is Hyperliquid the new frontier for innovation? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. One of the key things I like to track in crypto is a subjective criterion I call “where are new interesting developments and proposals taking place.” There are plenty of dashboards and analytics sites for this, the most popular being the Electric Capital site. The issue is that it still shows Polkadot as having a lot of developers. (At Blockworks we solved the noise problem with active users; maybe we can try the same for active developers.) Because of this noise, I prefer to track two simple observations: What is the velocity of new products launching, and how much mindshare are these products capturing? Are many people getting nerdsniped into discussing the novelties and intricacies of the chain? A related point is the caliber of people being attracted to new ecosystems. For example, over the past few years, Solana (and Ethereum) attracted the majority of talent. Talent generally goes where: It can solve interesting problems or create interesting projects. It can make a lot of money. In a podcast I did with Icebergy about a year ago, we discussed how crypto still wasn’t attracting talent at the levels AI was, despite offering faster exits and more money. AI was (and probably still is) more interesting to most talent and seen as more prestigious. After FTX, crypto lost a lot of credibility and has only recently started recovering as larger institutional players re-entered. Apart from FTX, crypto has also been criticized for being full of low-effort forks and limited utility products. This dynamic isn’t unique to crypto though. Many AI companies are also just building wrappers around GPT, which is as uninteresting as some projects in crypto. Anyway, to the point: Historically, Solana has captured the majority of…
