Projects that can be used to receive rewards, bonuses, access to special service functions and other privileges are constantly appearing in the world of cryptocurrencies. Yes, there are those that are used for fraud, but there are also those that really contribute to the development of the crypto industry.

If we take into account the list of promising tokens for 2024-2025, then in our opinion it looks like this.

Chainlink is a cryptocurrency token used on the Chainlink network to provide a decentralized oracle service. In 2024, the role of the project in the segment of tokenized real assets (RWA) also increased significantly. At the time of writing, LINK, with a capitalization of almost $10.4 billion, ranks 16th overall. Its price is $16.75.

Solana (SOL)

Solana is a blockchain platform known for its high transaction speed and low fees. Due to its unique architecture, Solana can handle more than 50,000 transactions per second, making it one of the fastest blockchain networks.

Solana also continues to gain popularity thanks to its low commissions. The growth of memcoins and the development of DeFi services stimulated the influx of users, which allowed the project to take fourth place in the overall ranking of cryptocurrencies. It currently has a market capitalization of $109.7 billion and a value of $231. Memcoins are both the driver and the Achilles heel of SOL. A decline in interest in this asset class has the potential to significantly reduce activity in the network and, as a result, the value of the native token.

Polkadot (POL)

Polkadot is a multi-chain platform that connects different blockchains, allowing them to share data and work together. The main goal of Polkadot is to provide a decentralized Internet where blockchains of different types can interact effectively.

The advantage of POL is the support of interoperability between blockchains and high flexibility. At the time of writing, POL has a market capitalization of $12 billion and a price tag of nearly $8.

Ethereum (ETH)

Well, of course, where can we go without the "airwaves". It is ETH that is the leader among smart contract platforms, and its ecosystem is distinguished by the largest number of developers, a record amount of blocked capital (TVL) and a favorable attitude of the US regulatory authorities. Currently, the price of ETH is 3.3 thousand. dollars, and the market capitalization equals 402 billion dollars.

Avalanche (AVAX)

Avalanche is a platform for creating smart contracts and decentralized applications, focused on high speed and security. Avalanche uses a unique consensus mechanism that allows for transaction confirmation to be achieved in fractions of a second, making it very attractive for financial and decentralized applications. Its advantage is high speed, security, easy integration with other blockchains. AVAX, like LINK, supports tokenization of real assets (RWA), a trend that is likely only gaining momentum. Currently, its capitalization is $16.4 billion, and the value is $40.17.

Toncoin (TON)

Toncoin became one of the notable players of 2024 thanks to its integration with Telegram and the emergence of a number of products aimed at attracting a mass audience and payment services. Starting in the spring of 2024, TON has shown a 300% increase in value, and the project's capitalization at the time of writing is $15 billion.

Crypto wallet Tonhub recently launched a Visa crypto debit card in the EU that allows payments in TON and USDT. Expansion in other regions is planned in 2025. The card supports SEPA, IBAN, SWIFT, Apple Pay, Google Pay and charges a 1.5% transaction fee. And almost 1 billion users of the messenger will do their job and almost guarantee the further growth of TON.

Uniswap (UNI)

Uniswap is a voting and governance token on the Uniswap decentralized exchange launched in September 2020. The token is used to participate in management and voting on changes to the Uniswap protocol. Uniswap is the dominant exchange in the Ethereum ecosystem and the largest in the industry, constantly developing new solutions and products for the storage and exchange of digital assets.

With the development of regulation and ever-increasing requirements to provide users with access to digital assets through CEX, decentralized platforms are gaining momentum, attracted by the openness and automation of exchange processes without access to third-party assets. Since the beginning of 2024, DEX trading volumes have almost doubled in total trading volume, and this trend is likely to continue. It is clear that the largest decentralized crypto exchange and its native token will benefit from this.
