Then comes the Awakening Testnet, already running with a throughput of 1,400 TPS, EVM compatibility, and live dApps like Reflection and Lottery. It’s not theory — users are already testing and building. The testnet even supports gasless transactions through account abstraction (EIP-4337), proving that BlockDAG isn’t chasing old blockchain problems but solving new ones.
The hype now centers on GENESIS Day, where only the first 5,000 holders get early entry at the most lucrative price tier. With just 10% upfront, anyone can lock in their claim. Once those spots are gone, they’re gone for good. Between its F1 partnership, working testnet, and massive presale momentum, BlockDAG feels less like a startup and more like the next big listing in the making. It’s no surprise many investors are calling it the best crypto to buy right now before listings take it mainstream.
