Chainlink Gains Traction, Pi Faces Scrutiny, and BlockDAG Extends Global Reach with Miner Deployment

The crypto market is increasingly gravitating towards projects that demonstrate both transparency and tangible execution. Chainlink (LINK) continues to hold strong, fueled by its stable price performance and active adoption across DeFi protocols. Meanwhile, Pi Network’s recent update has sparked debate regarding its internal controls and operational readiness. However, the project remains widely adopted due to its mobile-mining concept and a dedicated community, while uncertainty around its mainnet launch persists. BlockDAG, meanwhile, is making strides through measurable real-world deployments. With over $435 million raised, 312,000 holders, and 3.5 million X1 app users, the project’s global miner rollout, encompassing X Series models, demonstrates a commitment to tangible progress, as it continues to secure miners across 130+ countries.
