Bitcoin is back over $100,000 and the crypto market is rising fast. That means a lot of potential opportunities for crypto investors, who are currently scrambling to buy up tokens before prices get any higher.
But which tokens offer the best potential returns and the most utility for the next generation of Web3? We’ll highlight five crypto tokens that could be among the biggest winners in the next bull run.
Solaxy
Solaxy ($SOLX) is a brand-new project that’s combining meme vibes with serious utility. It’s building a first-of-its-kind Layer-2 scaling solution for the Solana blockchain and promises to finally eliminate Solana’s issues with network congestion. In the process, Solaxy could help meme coin traders by speeding up transaction executions and significantly lowering fees.
In fact, analysts are already predicting that the Solaxy Layer-2 could quickly become the biggest hub for Solana meme coin trading, stealing away market cap from the mainnet while growing the pie for developers and traders alike. Solaxy’s speed could also position it to succeed in other key crypto sectors, including DeFi and play-to-earn.
Growing use of Solaxy’s network translates directly to appreciation in the $SOLX token price because the coin is required to pay gas fees on the Layer-2. Investors and traders have been stocking up on $SOLX ahead of the network’s launch, helping the project raise nearly $35 million in its ongoing presale.
While no end date has been announced for the Solaxy token presale yet, expectations are growing that the launch could come soon as the project looks to take advantage of the current bullish environment. So, investors have to hurry if they want to lock in $SOLX before it hits exchanges.
Gala
Gala ($GALA) is a leading platform in the decentralized play-to-earn gaming sector. It’s best known for titles like Spider Tanks, Champions Arena, Eternal Paradox, and Townstar. While the gaming sector has been in a lull recently, there are signs demand could come roaring back as regulators back off the crypto industry and allow valuable game-based NFTs to flourish.
At the same time, Gala is expanding its footprint into music and video, making a push to be one of the premier content creation communities in Web3. All of this will be powered by the upcoming GalaChain Layer-1 blockchain, which is widely expected to use the $GALA token to pay for gas fees.
In short, this is a high-momentum project that’s innovating on several different fronts, all while building the technical infrastructure needed to fully control its own destiny. The $GALA token currently has a market cap of less than $1 billion and is down 97% from its all-time high of $0.8367, so we think this coin has a ton of room for growth.
BTC Bull Token
BTC Bull Token ($BTCBULL) is an emerging meme coin that’s betting on Bitcoin—and already seeing that bet pay off. It’s the only meme coin offering investors a chance to earn real $BTC rewards, and its rewards structure is directly tied to gains in the price of $BTC.
The way BTC Bull Token works is simple. When Bitcoin rises to $125k, $175k, or $225k, the project will buyback and burn its own $BTCBULL, increasing the value of investors’ holdings. When Bitcoin hits key milestones at $150k, $200k, and $250k, the project will airdrop real $BTC to its community.
This price-based mechanism means that BTC Bull Token and Bitcoin can serve to push each other’s price higher. Every incremental price increase in Bitcoin will create surging demand for $BTCBULL as investors rush in to avoid missing out on the next reward. Meanwhile, BTC Bull Token itself is creating demand for $BTC to airdrop to its token holders at the next milestone.
Analysts have predicted this token could surge in value once it hits exchanges—and that’s before counting potential returns from the Bitcoin $BTCBULL token holders receive. The project has raised more than $5.6 million in an explosive ICO, so investors have to act fast if they want to grab $BTCBULL before this coin rockets higher.
Nexo
Nexo ($NEXO) is one of the biggest players in DeFi and a key crypto lender around the world—that is, in almost every country except the US. That’s about to change since Nexo just announced that it will be returning to the US market for the first time since 2023.
The news means that Nexo will soon offer crypto lending, wealth management, savings accounts, and more to the world’s largest crypto market. It offers numerous products that aren’t currently available to US users, like dual investment accounts and fixed-interest savings accounts, as well as private wealth services for major crypto holders.
All of these services are better with the platform’s native $NEXO token, which offers fee discounts and exclusive access to better rates. So, demand for $NEXO could surge as enormous amounts of US-based crypto pour into the platform. This is a major strategic move that could position Nexo as the dominant DeFi player in the US for years to come.
Virtuals Protocol
Virtuals Protocol ($VIRTUAL) is one of the largest AI agent crypto projects and a major player in enabling anyone in Web3 to deploy custom AI agents. It made waves with projects like aixbt and Jarvis, and those were likely just the beginning. Developers have taken note of Virtuals Protocol and are actively building the next generation of advanced agents with the platform.
That’s important because most crypto users are more likely to customize existing AI agents than build their own from scratch. So, Virtuals Protocol stands to be one of the main beneficiaries of the movement towards using AI agents for a variety of tasks—like crypto trading—that currently have to be done manually. Use of agents must be paid for in $VIRTUAL tokens, so expanding use of agents means skyrocketing demand for this coin.
To gauge the potential growth of $VIRTUAL, it helps to look at the token range over the past several months. $VIRTUAL is currently 61% off its all-time high set in early January, and that’s before the project has benefited from the most recent advances in AI tech. A potential 2x-5x move for this coin seems within reach once hype around AI agents rebounds.
