Crypto markets suffered an unforeseen setback. Market updates showed first Bitcoin’s $30,000 uncertainty before it dipped below and the previous support turned resistance. Momentum still favors XRP, with traders citing $0.80 ambitions, but the hidden star in the current turbulent climate has to be DigiToads (TOADS). This budding blockchain ICO has raised $6.4 million and targets a total raise of $7 million, which analysts expect it will overshoot, judging by the protocol’s current trajectory.
Whales have been sending BTC to exchanges, a typical sell movement, and fears of continued interest rate hikes sweep the markets. Bitcoin (BTC) has borne the brunt of this negative sentiment, and new DeFi projects continue to thrive, further cementing the overperformance thesis of new altcoins compared to 2021’s top altcoins.
DigiToads (TOADS) presale targets $7 million
DigiToads has rapidly garnered attention from investors and media outlets as its presale continues to soar. This crypto ICO now targets a total raise of $7 million.
The robust earning potential within The Swamp – the DigiToads (TOADS) ecosystem- has driven this participation, and the diversity of ecosystem features has intrigued a broad audience. One mechanic popular amongst NFT holders is the NFT Staking mechanic. It enables users lucky enough to mint one of the protocol’s Toad-Themed NFT Collections to earn consistent payouts funded by the ecosystem’s unique taxation system.
The Toad-Cade, the play-to-earn game, opens another revenue stream. Players battle toads with the ability to upgrade their attributes through purchases at the in-game store. These items will increase their chances of ending the season in the top 25% and becoming eligible for a percentage of the prize pool. The in-game store revenue also funds an airdrop for the entire community.
Beyond this, The Swamp features active treasury management mechanics, a native DEX, on-chain trading competitions, meme contests, and a powerful deflationary mechanic. Analysts cited this burning campaign pointing out the sustained upwards pressure it would exert on the DigiToads (TOADS) price when they forecast a 1,100% rally in the coming months.
Bitcoin (BTC) loses $30,000 support

Bitcoin (BTC) fell below $30,000 and has begun to retrace the Spot ETF-driven rally. Exchange inflows have risen, showing that more prominent investors have started taking profits. The markets have priced in another hike at the FOMC meeting this June, and the continued liquidity crunch alongside added macro pressure weighs down on Bitcoin.
Price predictions over extended periods have not changed, and analysts still forecast Bitcoin (BTC) trading as high as $70,751.17 in 2024. Interestingly although larger investors have been sending BTC to exchanges, on-chain data shows smaller investors have been using the opportunity to buy the dip and add to their holdings.
XRP maintains SEC decision tailwinds
XRP maintains bullish momentum. Following multiple relisting on major centralized exchanges, liquidity continues to flood into the cross-border payments solution. The Ripple team has leveraged the favorable winds and applied for a crypto license in the United Kingdom, hoping to capitalize on their current momentum.
Analysts forecast XRP trading between $1.18 and $1.47 in 2024 and stated that the $0.80 price target was well within grasp in Q3 this year.

DigiToads (TOADS) is a prime example of a protocol with a holder base with no intentions of selling, and hence why it makes an excellent investment. Additionally, its deflationary nature provides a constant value accrual mechanism even in turbulent market conditions.
Early presale participants are already up 400%, and investors who join today can buy TOADS for just $0.05. At launch on August 21, the price will be $0.055, and presale investors will already be in profit.
