BlockDAG’s Beta Testnet Sets New Pace With Aims to Reach 15K+ TPS! Chainlink Eyes $20 & SHIB Burns 1 Billion Tokens

BlockDAG’s Beta Testnet
While much of the crypto space is captivated by burn rates, bullish chart patterns, and price speculations, actual infrastructure performance is rarely front and center. The recent surge in Shiba Inu’s burn activity and Layer-2 engagement, along with Chainlink’s climb toward the $20 level, offer compelling narratives—but they are still largely shaped by market trends and trading behavior.

In comparison, BlockDAG (BDAG) is bringing attention to utility and structure over hype. Its Beta Testnet is focused on proof through action, not assumption. With more than 15,000 daily transactions and over 200 mining nodes in play, BlockDAG is stress-testing its technology in preparation for a mainnet launch in 2025. While others follow price trends, BlockDAG is showing what being prepared truly looks like.

SHIB’s 1 Billion Token Burn Fuels Speculation

A massive spike in Shiba Inu’s burn rate recently saw over 1 billion SHIB tokens destroyed in just 24 hours—marking a 57,000% jump. The surge was mainly due to a single user moving 1 billion SHIB to a dead wallet, permanently removing them from circulation.

Even with such a high burn volume, SHIB’s price held steady near $0.00001443 after experiencing a 55% drop from its yearly peak. Analysts studying SHIB’s chart note a megaphone pattern taking shape on the weekly timeframe, indicating the possibility of a strong upward breakout. Should this pattern confirm, the price could rally up to $0.00003395—a rise of around 130%.

Simultaneously, the Shibarium Layer-2 platform is nearing a milestone of 1 billion total transactions. At present, the network has facilitated over 975 million transactions, supports upwards of 245,000 user accounts, and has produced more than 10.15 million blocks—showing a steady increase in ecosystem usage.

Chainlink (LINK) Eyes $20 Mark Following Breakout

LINK’s recent price activity shows a promising upward direction, having broken out from a descending parallel channel that started back in February 2025. Holding firm around the $15.15 level, LINK now appears to be on track to test the $20 resistance. The token also moved past the 200 EMA, with $19.30 seen as the next technical target. The $20 threshold remains a psychological benchmark in the current market setup.

Further strengthening this bullish perspective, on-chain metrics offer supportive evidence. Santiment’s data reveals a rise in LINK’s social dominance, indicating growing conversation around the coin. Development progress has also ramped up since early March 2025. Additionally, a drop in LINK’s exchange supply suggests ongoing accumulation by larger holders. These combined factors support a stronger price forecast for LINK.

BlockDAG Enters Final Testing Phase Ahead of 2025 Mainnet— Here’s What to Expect

With the mainnet launch set for later in 2025, BlockDAG has stepped into its final testing phase—the Beta “Primordial” Testnet. This step is not just a preview—it’s a complete system trial aimed at testing the network’s stability and performance in real-time conditions. Every part of the network is under evaluation to ensure readiness for the mainnet rollout.

The testnet is created to mimic live usage by pushing high-load conditions. BlockDAG is aiming for over 15,000 daily transactions and maintaining more than 200 mining nodes as part of its trial to prove scalability and decentralization. Compatibility with wallets like MetaMask is being tested, ensuring smooth integration across platforms. Meanwhile, developers are deploying smart contracts, users are exploring dApps, and vesting processes are being trialed across 110,000+ accounts.

This active test period is crucial, as real user data and network behavior help identify areas for final tuning before launch. Parallel to the testing, BlockDAG’s crypto presale performance reflects strong traction: $209.5 million raised, 19 billion coins already sold, and an ROI of 2,380% from the first batch. Now priced at $0.0248 in batch 27, the project continues to draw participation as it validates technical reliability.

From executing smart contracts and running wallets to testing token vesting, the Beta Testnet goes far beyond a basic check—it’s a detailed rehearsal of what users and developers will experience on the live network. For BlockDAG, this is the final checkpoint before the official launch becomes real.

Final Thoughts!

Sharp price moves, burn events, and breakout patterns can attract fast attention, but consistent systems are what ensure lasting relevance. SHIB’s aggressive burn and Chainlink’s rising trend highlight how much weight sentiment still carries.

But BlockDAG is moving differently. Its Beta Testnet runs daily operations under real pressure, with more than 200 miners participating and smart contract deployment already in action. While others build projections, BlockDAG is measuring outcomes. The difference lies in tested performance, not just theory.
