Grayscale, one of crypto’s largest institutional asset managers, published a research note on Oct. 10 calling Solana (SOL) “crypto’s financial bazaar.”
This characterization goes well beyond the usual speed-and-throughput pitch. The report positions SOL as the category leader in users, transactions, and fees, arguing that its user experience, architectural moat via the Solana Virtual Machine, and application diversity create a durable foundation for valuation.
It’s a significant shift in institutional tone. Grayscale is now giving Solana the same treatment it once reserved for Ethereum as “digital oil.”
The thesis matters less for what Grayscale believes than for what it signals. When a major allocator aligned with the traditional finance ecosystem formalizes an investment case around a blockchain that was left for dead after FTX collapsed, other desks take notice.
The question is whether the numbers support the narrative, or whether “financial bazaar” is still more metaphor than measurable reality.
We stress-tested Grayscale’s claims against primary on-chain data, developer trackers, and technical benchmarks. The direction is right: Solana leads on several key metrics.
However, the institutional case carries trade-offs that the report acknowledges only in passing, and a few headline figures deserve closer scrutiny.
The report frames Solana as the standout among smart contract platforms on three core fundamentals: users, transaction volume, and fees.
Grayscale cites roughly $425 million in monthly ecosystem fees, an annualized run rate above $5 billion, and points to $1.2 trillion in year-to-date DEX volume routed through Raydium and Jupiter.
It highlights Jupiter as the largest DEX aggregator by volume in the industry, Pump.fun’s 2 million monthly active users, and Helium’s 1.5 million daily users as proof of application diversity.
On the developer side, the report notes more than 1,000 full-time Solana developers and claims the ecosystem has grown faster than any other smart contract platform over the past two years.
Speed and cost receive equal billing. Solana produces blocks every 400 milliseconds, with transactions considered final in roughly 12 to 13 seconds.
Average transaction fees sit at $0.02, while median daily fees this year have averaged $0.001, one-tenth of one cent, thanks to local fee markets that isolate congestion to specific high-demand applications.
A forthcoming upgrade called Alpenglow aims to reduce finality to 100 to 150 milliseconds.
Grayscale also draws boundaries. It explicitly states that SOL “may be less suitable as a long-term store of value than Bitcoin or Ethereum,” citing higher nominal supply inflation and centralization vectors.
The report noted that Solana’s efficiency comes at the cost of comparatively high hardware and bandwidth requirements, with 99% of staked SOL in data centers and roughly 45% concentrated in the top two hosting providers.
DeFiLlama shows Solana consistently running around 2.6 million active addresses in the last 24 hours and roughly 67 million on-chain transactions over the same window, in line with 2025’s typical pace.
Artemis reporting from mid-2025 highlighted that Solana matched all other layer-1 and layer-2 networks combined on monthly active addresses, corroborating the “category leader” characterization on user count.
Regarding fees, the “$425 million per month” figure requires context. Token Terminal’s chain-level fee data for Solana show tens of millions per month in several 2025 periods, around $30 million to $40 million in recent months.
DeFiLlama shows current daily chain fees around $0.8 million to $1.6 million and app fees around $9 million to $13 million, together implying roughly $300 million to $450 million per month at the recent pace, depending on market intensity.
Hundreds of millions per month during busy periods is plausible, but $425 million as a steady baseline overstates the run rate. The mix between chain fees and app fees also matters for apples-to-apples comparisons across networks.
The report also addressed volumes. DeFiLlama’s chain dashboard shows Solana regularly posting multi-billion-dollar daily DEX volume and more than $40 billion in the last seven days, with multiple recent days topping Ethereum.
Weekly, Solana topped Ethereum’s volumes for 33 out of 42 weeks this year.
Jupiter currently ranks as the industry’s largest DEX aggregator by 30-day volume, roughly $22.3 billion versus $13 billion to $14 billion for 1inch, supporting Grayscale’s claim.
For the active developer base, Electric Capital’s live tracker shows Solana with approximately 17,708 total developers as of mid-October 2025, with the full-time developer base up 29.1% year over year and 61.7% over two years.
The ecosystem attracted 7,625 new developers in 2024, the most of any chain, and has added more than 11,500 new developers year to date through mid-October 2025.
That places Solana second only to Ethereum in active developers, confirming the “large and growing” characterization.
On finality and speed, Chainspect reports Solana slot time around 0.4 seconds and typical finality at roughly 12.8 seconds today, aligning with Grayscale’s 12- to 13-second claim.
Additionally, Helius’ technical documentation on local fee markets explains how Solana sustains high throughput while keeping median user fees in fractions of a cent, even during congestion.
The data directionally support the thesis that Solana leads in active users, often leads in DEX flow, hosts the largest aggregator, and ranks second in developers.
The fee claim is accurate during hot markets but overstates the steady-state baseline.
Institutions are warming to Solana because the user experience is now measurably fast, cheap, and more predictable.
Local fee markets keep most congestion and priority fees localized to hot applications, so everyday transactions stay inexpensive even when activity spikes, something custodians and venues value when they batch flows or settle client orders.
Chainspect measures roughly 0.4-second block times and 12.8-second finality today, and the Alpenglow upgrade targets sub-second finality, reducing settlement risk windows for market makers and brokers.
Reliability has improved since the mainnet halt on Feb. 6, 2024, which lasted about five hours. Yet, data shows stronger uptime and throughput in subsequent months.
Liquidity has deepened across both DEX and aggregator rails, which matters for execution and hedging.
DeFiLlama shows Solana regularly at or near the top in chain-level DEX volumes. At the same time, Jupiter ranks as the largest DEX aggregator by 30-day volume, giving institutions a single router into pooled liquidity across Raydium, Orca, Meteora, and others.
Token Terminal data also shows rising fee capture on Solana’s stack, chain plus apps, a proxy for sustained user demand that supports tighter spreads and deeper books.
Post-FTX, the ecosystem has rebuilt credibility and infrastructure. The Artemis report already mentioned suggests that the user base and throughput weren’t just hype cycles.
On the product side, a regulated-product pipeline has emerged, with multiple spot SOL exchange-traded funds (ETFs) applications pending before the US government shutdown paused SEC reviews, signaling mainstream issuers’ interest, even if the timing has slipped.
Together, user traction and visible institutional wrappers lower the perceived idiosyncratic risk that kept some desks sidelined in 2023.
Grayscale acknowledges centralization but only in outline. Running a high-quality validator still assumes server-class hardware, 12-plus cores, AVX2/512 instruction sets, NVMe arrays, and 256GB-plus RAM, which raises the barrier to entry and pushes operators toward data centers.
Solana’s effective decentralization, measured by the Nakamoto coefficient, stood at 20 as of Apr. 16, 2025, down from a higher peak, meaning fewer entities would need to collude to censor transactions than in periods when the coefficient was larger.
Client diversity remains in transition. The Agave and Jito clients still dominate Solana, while Firedancer is progressing but has only run in limited or non-voting configurations, with full rollout targeted for 2025.
Until Firedancer and other clients are widely adopted, single-client risk persists.
Store-of-value headwinds stem from issuance and fee policy. The current annual issuance ranges from 4% to 5%, with a disinflationary path toward a lower long-term target, higher than Bitcoin’s fixed schedule and capable of diluting holders absent offsetting burn.
Following SIMD-0096, only 50% of the base fee is burned, and the priority-fee burn has been discontinued, weakening the burn counterweight when activity shifts toward priority fees.
High throughput drives large ledgers, frequent snapshots, and upgrade cadence.
Recommended setups include multiple high-TBW NVMe devices for accounts, ledgers, and snapshots, which raises ongoing operational costs compared to lighter chains.
Grayscale’s Solana thesis, which posits that fast, cheap, and sticky applications yield sustainable network value, holds up on the fundamentals that matter most to institutions: active users, transaction throughput, developer pipeline, and liquidity depth.
The “financial bazaar” framing is more than marketing, as Solana hosts a diverse and dense on-chain economy that rivals or exceeds its peers on multiple dimensions.
Yet, the caveats matter. The $425 million monthly fee figure is a high-water mark, not a baseline. Centralization vectors, centered around hardware requirements, stake concentration, and client diversity, are real, even if they haven’t yet impaired network operations.
And the store-of-value limitation Grayscale draws is a deliberate line. SOL is a utility and speculation vehicle, rather than a monetary asset in the sense of Bitcoin or Ethereum.
The following milestones to watch are Alpenglow’s finality upgrade and Firedancer’s full deployment.
If Solana can deliver sub-second finality while diversifying its client base, the institutional case strengthens. If hardware requirements continue to push validators into data centers and the Nakamoto coefficient drifts lower, the “bazaar” risks becoming a walled garden.

XRP has found itself back under the microscope as bullish momentum is yet to return with full force. Another weekend is here, and XRP’s price action is still perambulating around last weekend’s flash crash, which saw the cryptocurrency register its biggest liquidation candlestick in history. 
Now, XRP is trying to recover to higher price levels above $2. Interestingly, one technical analysis warns that, before any major rebound, the price of XRP could suffer a severe decline, possibly down as much as 40%. While such a drop would be painful for holders, the scenario is being cast not as a permanent collapse but as a capitulation move that might precede a stronger rally.
Worst Case Scenario
What transpired last weekend in the crypto markets qualifies as the largest deleveraging event in recent memory. Leveraged positions were forcibly closed out across many exchanges, leading to cascading liquidations that sent price action into a free fall. As such, about $19 billion in positions was wiped out in the span of hours.
In XRP’s case, that intense pressure led to a violent plunge that created a deep low wick to break below $1.6 on its price chart before a quick rebound above $2.2. That wick is central to the argument that the forced selling squeezed both longs and shorts, clearing excess leverage and setting the stage for price discovery to reset. However, a suggestion is that the worst may not yet be fully priced in, and that this purge might continue deeper before sentiment truly turns bullish.
This worst-case scenario outlook is based on an analysis by Steph Is Crypto that envisions another possible 40% crash in the XRP price. As shown in the price chart below, XRP’s price action might fall to revisit last weekend flash crash bottom just above $1.55.
This price level may represent the deepest downside target before the market catches its footing again. If current levels give way, say if XRP loses its more immediate support zones at $2.2 and $2, the descent toward that boundary would amount to a drop of about 30 to 40%.

What’s Next After The Crash?
The wick already formed by the sudden flash crash is interpreted as an initial flush of stops, but the full erosion of weak hands might still have room to run. Only after that purge can a more sustainable rebound be believable.
If the worst-case scenario plays out, the path forward would require XRP to first establish strong support near or around $1.55, shake off residual volatility, and then gather volume and momentum for the next leg upward. From here, the analyst projected an extended rally that will see the XRP price break into new all-time highs above $3.8.
At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.35, up by 4% in the past 24 hours.

PI’s price continues to sink, but the project behind the token remains in the spotlight with a series of notable developments. Here’s a breakdown of everything new you should know.
As CryptoPotato reported, Pi Network’s team unveiled new updates to the Pi App Studio “to make app creation more accessible and customizable, and integrated within the Pi ecosystem.” Specifically, the new features improve the user experience, provide further AI-assisted capabilities, and strengthen the connection between creators and the community.
Pi App Studio is an AI-powered platform launched by Pi Network, which enables users to create decentralized applications (dApps) without any programming skills. It was launched on June 28, a date known across the PI community as Pi2Day.
Another recent endeavor related to Pi Network is the Pi Hackathon 2025. This event encourages developers to create real-world applications that expand the utility of the PI token, thereby improving the ecosystem. It incentivizes participants’ efforts with a prize pool of 160,000 coins, distributed to the first eight teams.
The event’s starting date was August 21, and it was supposed to end on October 15. Nonetheless, Pi Network’s team has not yet unveiled any information about its conclusion.
Despite the aforementioned developments, the price of Pi Network’s native token has been on a massive decline in the last several months. Currently, it trades at roughly $0.20, representing a 43% drop on a monthly scale and a staggering 93% crash compared to the all-time high levels from February.
The waning enthusiasm across the community, coupled with the looming token unlocks, suggests a further downfall might be incoming. Data indicates that nearly 120 million PI will be freed up in the next month, a less substantial amount than in previous months, yet still capable of increasing selling pressure.
However, it’s not all doom and gloom, as two factors indicate PI’s price may rebound soon. The first is the reduced amount of tokens stored on crypto exchanges. The figure has dropped to 411 million after over 2.6 million PI have been transferred from centralized platforms to self-custody methods in the past 24 hours. This leads to reduced immediate selling pressure.
Next on the list is PI’s Relative Strength Index (RSI), which traders often use to spot reversal points. The technical analysis tool measures the speed and magnitude of the latest price changes, with a range from 0 to 100. Readings below 30 are considered buying opportunities, while those above 70 indicate incoming corrections. As of this writing, the RSI stands at 26.

Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin BTCUSD, is the largest BTC holder in the world at the time of this writing, and the wallets controlled by Satoshi took an unrealized loss of over $20 billion since the all-time high price of over $126,000 reached in early October.
Nakamoto’s Bitcoin stash contains over 1 million BTC, valued at over $117.5 billion at the time of this writing, according to data from Arkham Intelligence.
The portfolio swelled to over $136 billion during Bitcoin’s rally to new all-time highs of over $126,000 during the first week of October.

However, crypto markets were rocked by cascading liquidations in the perpetual futures market on October 8, ignited by a post from US President Donald Trump signaling added tariffs on China, which sparked investor fears of a renewed trade war.
The market rout caused $20 billion in liquidations, the worst 24-hour liquidation event in the history of crypto, sending prices crashing, with the value of some altcoins declining by over 99%. However, Bitcoin showed resilience, remaining above the $100,000 level.
Market crash is a temporary setback, not a reevaluation of fundamentals
The market crash that began on October 8 is only a short-term decline and “does not have long-term fundamental implications,” according to investment analysts at The Kobeissi Letter.
Multiple technical factors contributed to the market meltdown, including excessive leverage, thin market liquidity, which heightens volatility and exacerbates the effect of large, sudden moves, and Trump’s social media post, The Kobeissi Letter wrote.

“We think a trade deal will be reached, and crypto remains strong. We are bullish,” the analysts continued.
Days earlier, The Kobeissi Letter said that Bitcoin’s all-time high coincided with the US dollar’s weakest year since 1973, which signals a major macroeconomic shift.
Moreover, risk-on asset prices are increasing at the same time as store-of-value and bearer assets like gold and BTC, an unusual phenomenon as these asset classes tend to run counter to each other, adding weight to the Kobessi analysts’ macroeconomic thesis.

Ripple has just acquired GTreasury in a $1 billion deal, marking its biggest move yet to replace SWIFT and take control of global treasury infrastructure.
With this acquisition, Ripple gains the tools to let corporations move money 24/7 using blockchain rails. It’s Ripple’s third major buyout this year, and it cements its ambition to rebuild institutional finance on-chain.
But even with such a big move, XRP’s price forecast remains muted. The same goes for BNB, despite its Coinbase listing and recent surge.
That’s why many investors are now turning to DeepSnitch AI, a presale gem with real utility and the upside potential these blue chips can no longer offer.
Ripple has acquired GTreasury, a leading corporate treasury management firm, in a $1 billion deal aimed at bringing blockchain speed and flexibility to traditional finance. The move gives Ripple direct infrastructure to help corporate treasuries manage digital assets, including stablecoins and tokenized deposits.
With GTreasury’s tools and Ripple’s blockchain rails, clients can now move funds 24/7 with near-instant settlement, streamlining cross-border transactions. CEO Brad Garlinghouse said the deal targets the inefficiencies of legacy systems: “Money has been stuck in outdated infrastructure for too long.”

This is Ripple’s third major acquisition in 2025, following Hidden Road and Rail, as the company deepens its push into institutional finance.
Ripple isn’t just expanding, it’s going after SWIFT’s role in global banking. Recent partnerships with BBVA, Franklin Templeton, DBS, and Bahrain Fintech Bay point to a broader strategy: combine stablecoins, tokenized funds, and custody services to rebuild global finance on-chain.
With each deal, Ripple positions itself not just as a payments firm, but as a serious challenger to the legacy financial system.
The 100x era of crypto isn’t dead, investors just need to stop betting on random meme coins and start focusing on projects with real utility and massive reach. That’s what serious finance looks for: use case + market size. And that’s exactly what DeepSnitch AI delivers.
Now in its presale phase, DeepSnitch AI offers a rare opportunity. At just $0.01915 per token, a $100 investment could realistically turn into $10,000 once the token hits exchanges. All it would take is DSNT reaching $1 post-launch, a target well within reach for a project of this caliber.

Built for over 100M active crypto traders, DeepSnitch helps eliminate emotion from trading. It offers AI-powered tools that let users track whales, avoid scams, and act on real data instead of panic. It’s why many believe DeepSnitch could soon be as essential as TradingView or MetaMask.
Even better, DeepSnitch AI is perfectly positioned to ride the explosive growth of the AI sector, which analysts say will 25x by 2033. That momentum is already here, with over $430K raised in the presale.
The XRP price is sitting around $2.44, caught between support at $2.10 and resistance at $2.80. Price action has slowed after a week of whale sell-offs, liquidations, and ETF rumors. Despite $5.8 billion in daily volume, momentum is still lacking for the XRP price prediction.

Glassnode data shows whales grabbed 1.65 billion XRP near $2.10, forming a strong demand zone. But $2.80 poses a challenge, with nearly 4% of supply bought there, likely to trigger selling pressure if the price climbs.
Institutional selling on Oct. 14-15 sparked a 6% drop, cutting open interest in half and flipping funding rates negative. Retail hasn’t stepped in yet to move the XRP price prediction forward.
BNB has dropped 22% to $1,069 after hitting an all-time high near $1,370 just days earlier. The sharp move wiped out over $16 billion in market cap, while trading volume slipped 13% to $3.7 billion.
The chart now confirms a double top pattern, with the neckline at $1,103 broken and price testing key support at the 50-day SMA near $1,017. If this level fails, BNB could fall toward $904 or even $829.

Momentum is fading fast. The MACD has flipped bearish. RSI is sliding. Futures open interest is down 14%. The long/short ratio is just 0.88, showing traders are leaning bearish.
Macro pressures and weak demand for BNB-linked memecoins add fuel to the drop. Still, some bulls point to structural support holding firm, for now. A push back above the trendline could revive momentum, with $1,350 as the next big target.
In today’s crypto market, hype alone doesn’t cut it, and neither does utility without momentum.
The projects that explode are the ones that combine both. DeepSnitch AI is one of the few that checks every box: strong utility, viral potential, and perfect timing.
Its presale is live right now, targeting the most undervalued sector in crypto: AI. And with the AI sector expected to grow 25x in the next few years, this may be your last shot to enter before the big money does.
Check out the website for more information.

Analysts remain divided. Some see XRP hitting $5–$10 if Ripple’s treasury and banking partnerships keep building up momentum. The Ripple price prediction for 2025 depends on adoption and whether it can fully replace SWIFT’s outdated infrastructure.
Over $430,000 has been raised during its presale, with early buyers already seeing a 26% increase in token value. The project is building momentum fast as more traders realize its 100x potential.
If the token reaches $1, that’s a 52x gain from the current presale price. But if it follows the same trajectory as top AI tokens like Bittensor or Fetch.AI, a 100x pump isn’t unrealistic.

Jakarta, Pintu News – The price of Pi Network (PI) in Indonesia today, October 16, 2025, is recorded at around Rp3,480 or around $0.2100, showing a slight correction in the last 24 hours. Although the price movement still tends to be sideways after experiencing a sharp decline at the beginning of the week, the optimism of the Pi community remains high.
One of the factors maintaining interest in the project is the launch of Pi DEX, a community-based decentralized exchange that is an important step in strengthening Pi Network’s DeFi ecosystem.
With an internal value model in place that supports price stability and user participation, Pi Network is now looking to expand the functionality of the PI token beyond just a mining asset, towards a more mature decentralized financial ecosystem.
The chart above shows the price movements of Pi Network (PI) in the last 24 hours based on data from CoinMarketCap as of October 16, 2025. The current price of Pi Coin is around $0.2100 or around Rp3,480 (assuming an exchange rate of Rp16,574), recording a daily decline of 1.81%.
Overall, the chart shows a gradual downward trend since early October, with daily trading volumes dropping significantly by 26.28% to $27.98 million. Pi’s market capitalization now stands at $1.73 billion, while its fully diluted valuation (FDV) stands at around $20.97 billion.
Interestingly, the chart also shows a flash crash in the middle of the week, where the price briefly touched levels below $0.18 before recovering and stabilizing in the $0.21-$0.22 range. This pattern indicates high volatility, which may have been caused by massive selling pressure or short-term profit-taking.
Despite this, Pi Network’s community sentiment is still relatively positive, with 88% of users showing a bullish view, while only 12% are bearish. This indicates that most of the community is still optimistic about the potential recovery of the Pi price in the medium term, especially if there are new developments regarding the launch of an open mainnet or integration in the DeFi ecosystem.

Pi DEX has taken center stage in the expansion of the DeFi Pi Network. As a community-backed decentralized exchange, Pi DEX aims to eliminate manipulation, delays, and high fees that often occur on centralized exchanges.
Supporters of the project emphasize the transparency, speed, and peer-to-peer structure of Pi DEX, all of which are designed to empower Pi users, known as Pioneers.
With a transparent and efficient structure, Pi DEX allows Pioneers to exchange digital assets more securely and quickly. This paves the way for a fairer and more open trading ecosystem, where every user has equal control over their transactions.
The DeFi model in the Pi ecosystem operates based on an “internal value” system, which uses a Global Consensus Value (GCV) of $314,159 per Pi for mined coins. This value supports stability in the ecosystem by creating a fixed reference level for verified Pioneers.
Users can make DEX exchanges, participate in liquidity pools, and earn 0.3% transaction rewards. This stability is important to maintain trust and sustainability in digital asset exchanges.
With a fixed value, Pioneers can plan and transact with more confidence, which in turn increases the overall activity and growth of the ecosystem.

Home – Crypto Presales – XRP and Avalanche Lead the Market Recovery as BullZilla Presale Surges: The Best New Cryptos to Buy for Massive 2025 Gains
XRP, Avalanche, and BullZilla are setting the stage for what could be the most explosive quarter in crypto this year. With market recovery gaining pace and new projects surging in visibility, these three names dominate investor chatter as “new cryptos to buy” before the next altcoin rally begins.

XRP continues to attract massive attention due to its strong legal position and expanding global use cases in cross-border settlements. Meanwhile, Avalanche’s ecosystem upgrades and DeFi integrations have triggered renewed optimism, with trading volumes jumping sharply across decentralized applications.
Amid this, BullZilla ($BZIL) has burst onto the scene with one of the most talked-about presales of 2025. With its dynamic stage-based structure and “Roar Burn” mechanism, it’s positioned as one of the top new cryptos to buy, offering investors early access before its presale price escalates.
BullZilla is the new entrant creating a massive buzz as the best next crypto to buy. It is a next-generation meme-meets-utility crypto combining narrative power with smart tokenomics. The project’s Mutation Mechanism ensures that prices increase every $100,000 raised or every 48 hours, encouraging early participation and creating built-in scarcity.

Currently in Stage 7A at $0.00016573, BullZilla has already raised over $920,000, demonstrating explosive investor interest. Its Roar Burn Mechanism permanently removes tokens from circulation with every milestone achieved, a deflationary model that rewards holders over time.
Analysts are labeling BullZilla as one of the new cryptos to buy now, especially given its 1000x upside potential post-listing. Its presale’s transparent structure and frequent stage updates build trust and excitement among retail and institutional backers alike.
Investors can join the BullZilla ($BZIL) crypto presale directly through the official website. Buyers connect a wallet (such as MetaMask or Trust Wallet), select BNB, USDT, or ETH as payment, and purchase $BZIL tokens at the current stage rate. Early access is key since the price automatically increases with each stage or every 48 hours, ensuring consistent upward momentum.
With over 3000 holders and strong community traction across Telegram and X (Twitter), BullZilla stands out as a top new crypto to buy before it lists on major exchanges later this year.
XRP remains a cornerstone for institutional payments and banking transactions. After Ripple’s partial legal victory last year, confidence has returned, with multiple financial entities exploring XRP Ledger integrations for faster settlements. The token’s ability to handle real-world liquidity has become its biggest strength, distinguishing it from speculative altcoins.
In 2025, Ripple’s ongoing partnerships in the Middle East, Asia, and Europe are fueling optimism about XRP’s long-term trajectory. Analysts project that if market momentum continues, XRP could reclaim its previous all-time highs within the next cycle.
With liquidity corridors expanding and real-world utility increasing, XRP stands out not just as a speculative play but as a stable component of a diversified crypto portfolio, one of the best new cryptos to buy for those seeking long-term growth.
Avalanche has re-emerged as one of the most efficient and scalable Layer-1 solutions in the market. Its architecture, featuring subnets and rapid finality, continues to attract new developers and DeFi protocols. With institutions experimenting with tokenization and on-chain asset management, Avalanche’s ecosystem is expanding at an impressive rate.
Recent metrics show over $500 million in total value locked (TVL) across its DeFi landscape, and new partnerships in gaming and real-world assets (RWA) sectors further strengthen its outlook. AVAX’s current price levels may represent one of the most attractive entry points for those eyeing new cryptos to buy this quarter.
If Avalanche maintains its pace of ecosystem growth, it could reclaim a position among the top 10 cryptocurrencies, driven by network adoption and demand for faster, cheaper transactions.

XRP’s global adoption, Avalanche’s scalable ecosystem, and BullZilla’s powerful presale narrative make them three of the most promising assets heading into the final quarter of 2025. While XRP and Avalanche represent stability and technology, BullZilla adds the growth potential that could multiply investor returns severalfold.
With BullZilla’s presale stages changing every 48 hours or at $100,000 milestones, now is the ideal window to act. Investors looking for new cryptos to buy with massive potential should strongly consider adding $BZIL to their watchlist before the next price surge hits.
