Bitcoin is testing range lows, and Ethereum has tapped its lowest price since November 2023 today – so it’s a huge opportunity for traders to secure discounted prices before the next leg up.
But what are the leading crypto to buy? This article reviews five promising projects that could have 100x potential this year.
Solaxy
Solaxy is building the first-ever Solana layer 2 blockchain. Using off-chain computation and transaction bundling technology, the project will eradicate Solana’s congestion issue.
It’s a huge leap forward for the Solana ecosystem, making it cheaper, faster, and more reliable. This will open Solana to new users and use cases, potentially creating billions of dollars in new value.
And right now, $SOLX is undergoing a presale. It’s a way for investors to join from the start. The presale has raised $25.7 million so far. It’s currently priced at $0.001658, but this will rise throughout the campaign.
Solaxy is at a rare juncture right now. Not only is it opening Solana to new possibilities, but it’s also available to buy from the ground floor. For $SOLX presale participants, this setup could give 100x gains.
MIND Of Pepe
MIND Of Pepe is a new Pepe-themed AI agent that aims to make its holders money. The agent has a wide range of abilities, including trend analysis, launching tokens, interacting with dApps, and even writing social media posts.
It covers all angles, from identifying trading opportunities to creating them and then shaping social discourse around them.
However, its core strength lies in analyzing market trends. MIND Of Pepe will consolidate social media and on-chain data into actionable insights to predict future trends, helping $MIND holders know what to buy and when.
Moreover, it can also fill gaps in the market by launching its own tokens. Again, $MIND holders will have first access, providing them with the standout entry prices.
The project is undergoing a presale and has raised $7.2 million so far.
As MIND Of Pepe seeks to make its community more profitable, the project is positioned to amass significant adoption, which could make the $MIND presale a highly lucrative opportunity for traders.
Mantra
Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP are all down today, as are many smaller altcoins. However, Mantra continues to push ahead in what’s becoming a running theme throughout the past year.
While the total crypto market cap is down 3.8% in the past 24 hours, Mantra is up 2.5% in the same window. It’s clear that investors see real value in the Mantra use case.
The reason is that Mantra is a real-world assets-focused layer 1 blockchain, providing a regulatory-adherent environment for institutions to tokenize their assets.
It’s a use case that veers outside the walled garden of normal crypto use cases and penetrates the traditional financial system. And it isn’t just today that Mantra has outperformed the market. Its price has surged by 2,000% in the past year.
Mantra has a $6 billion market cap, so it’s unlikely to give 100x gains this year. However, given its immense strength and focus on institutional adoption, there’s every chance it will become a hottest-five cryptocurrency and potentially rival XRP and Ethereum in the coming years.
Pudgy Penguins
Pudgy Penguins is a meme coin launched by the popular Pudgy Penguins NFT brand. The NFT collection launched in July 2021, and then the meme coin launched in December 2024.
The meme coin aims to increase accessibility and visibility for the Pudgy Penguins brand. There are just 10,000 NFT units but 62.86 billion meme coin units. While not everyone can hold a Pudgy Penguins NFT, there are enough $PENGU tokens for the entire global population.
Pudgy Penguins’ NFT collection has stood the test of time. It is currently the fourth most valuable collection after Crypto Punks. If the meme coin follows a similar course, we could see it brushing shoulders with Shiba Inu and Pepe in the future.
Pudgy Penguins’ long track record and strong community separate it from other new meme coins and increase its chances of long-term success.
It currently has a $356 million market cap and a $58 million 24-hour trading volume.
BTC Bull Token
BTC Bull Token is a Bitcoin-themed meme coin that pays its holders Bitcoin rewards. The idea is to increase Bitcoin ownership among meme coin fans and offset some of the volatility of meme coin investing through airdrops.
Users will receive free $BTC and $BTCBULL airdrops at key milestones on Bitcoin’s journey to $1 million. At the same time, Bitcoin-related cryptos tend to track Bitcoin’s price, so we can also expect the $BTCBULL price to grow as Bitcoin rises.
Users also earn even more via the project’s staking mechanism, which is live now and offering a 123% APY.
BTC Bull Token also has a burn mechanism, which destroys a portion of the total supply at key price milestones.
The project is available to buy via an ongoing presale, which has raised $3.4 million so far.
With Bitcoin rewards at its core and multiple other community reward initiatives, meme coin fans are scrambling to buy $BTCBULL. This positions it for significant growth in the coming months.
