The cryptocurrency market has returned to a bullish stance, yet one important issue is already the main topic of conversation among investors: will the BlockDAG (BDAG) take advantage of this vibrant atmosphere that has been created after its launch?
The price of Bitcoin has gone back to the $93,000 area. There has been a strong rally in Ethereum, and meme coins have gone through the roof. The entrance of BDAG to the market could not be at a better moment.
With the presale countdown timer rapidly approaching and the execution of milestones happening in quick succession, the excitement concerning BDAG's price after the launch is steadily growing.
The cryptocurrency market, which had been in the red at the end of December, has not only staged a significant comeback but also has become a real all-time-high.
In the past 24 hours alone, the total capitalization of cryptocurrencies has increased by 1.6%, thus surpassing the $3.25 trillion mark and completing its fifth consecutive green candle.
The price of Bitcoin has been fluctuating around $93,000; Ethereum's price has gone up by 6% and reached $3,200; and, along with mainstream cryptocurrencies such as XRP and Solana, the latter is also gaining ground.
Meme coins are pushing the risk-on rally, and among them, Dogecoin has risen by 20%, Pepe’s price has skyrocketed by 63%, and Bonk and Floki have gained between 30% and 45%, each.
Such a market that is improving in structure is likely to provide a very friendly atmosphere for the new launches, BlockDAG, in particular.
The BlockDAG project has come to a pivotal moment in its execution, as the fifth stage of the presale has advanced further in time, and the presale is due to close on January 26.
As per the official tweet, the fixed price for the tokens at the current stage 5 stays at $0.003, and the price at which the tokens are going to be sold is already decided at $0.05, thus making it a good time to buy for the early buyers.
The current price of BDAG at launch of $0.05 would mean that those who bought into the fifth stage at the aforementioned price would get more than 15 times the original investment, assuming the launch price holds.
Nevertheless, the actual gain will depend on general market conditions, liquidity, and demand after listing.
When this article was being written, only 3.52 billion BDAG coins were left, which means there is a strong demand as the due date is getting closer.
The mainnet, TGE, and the exchange listings are all targeted for early February, which means significant momentum is being created as the project moves from planning into the full execution stage.
Previous announcements hinted that listings would be done on almost 20 exchanges, but recent news points to a more selective and liquidity-centered approach through 8 to 11 exchanges. There are already 5 exchanges that have been disclosed, which are: MEXC, BitMart, Coinstore, LBank, and XT.com.
This new approach may prevent launch day from being rife with volatility while still allowing price to discover sustainably. Rather than a big bang, BlockDAG is looking to create a softly controlled and naturally growing market entry.
The project’s official presentation has stated that the BDAG token will launch at $0.05. Nonetheless, analysts foresee that the opening trading range will be decided by the actual market conditions.
Within the confines of a stable crypto market, the prediction by analysts is that BDAG would commence its trade at a price between $0.02 to $0.05.
With this kind of range, good price discovery would be possible, as well as the risk of a sudden post-listing sell-off would be minimized. The market could move slowly to the $0.05 target, which could indicate a high level of organic demand.
There are some members of the community who are discussing a hypothetical $0.026 price, which is a subtle nod towards the 26/01/26 presale end date.
Though this figure is not official and remains a conjecture, it shows that there is heightened interest, and the project is getting more attention through its narrative.
In case the Mainnet delivery, exchange liquidity, and ecosystem adoption follow the plan, BDAG might try to go back to the $0.05 level in the weeks after its launch. The market's sustained strength will play a significant role in deciding the upside potential.
There are several factors that will affect the price of BDAG after the launch:
General cryptocurrency market mood and Bitcoin's stability
Liquidity of the exchange and volumes of listing
Performance of the Mainnet and activity over the chain
Development of the community and acceptance of the ecosystem
Distribution of airdrop and dynamics of token supply
If these factors align positively, BDAG could benefit from a strong post-launch narrative.
With daily AMAs continuing, airdrop validation still ongoing, and the launch roadmap entirely secured, BlockDAG is entering a crucial phase where action is more important than simply making promises. As the early access window shuts, the attention of the investors is moving from speculation to the delivery of actual results.
