Christmas is fast approaching, and if you want to hopefully give yourself something to ho ho ho about, then how about investing in some top crypto coins? Or give someone else the gift of a meme coin since nothing says Christmas more than a coin with a frog’s head on it.
In that spirit, here are eight strong up-and-coming coins that could potentially make you rich in 2025. However, we can’t make guarantees, only predictions. So only invest what you can afford to lose.
1. Crypto All-Stars ($STARS)
Crypto All-Stars ($STARS) is a new meme coin that’s due to launch in just a week’s time. It has massive hype behind it – with 15 million tokens sold already in its presale stage – as well as a compelling use case in the form of the MemeVault.
The MemeVault will give investors a unified platform to buy meme coins such as Pepe, Dogecoin, Shibu Inu, and Floki Inu — essentially streamlining meme coin transactions. Built on the ERC-1155 standard, it will also allow multi-chain, multi-token staking, all of which gives $STARS a very compelling case for long-term potential.
With a current price per token of $0.0016782, a current staking APY of 175%, and a slick marketing campaign by its developers, $STARS is projected to do extremely well when it exits the presale stage next week.
2. Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE)
Bucking trends, tearing up the rule book, and giving Wall Street a run for its money seems to be the trend right now, which is likely why Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) is also doing extremely bullishly.
Wall Street Pepe aims to turn the tables on big investors by giving smaller investors access to the same information and opportunities in what’s been termed a “Frog Army.”
Aiming to capitalize on the huge popularity of Pepe the Frog, Wall Street Pepe is currently offering a very attractive $0.0003634 per coin, but the price is increasing every few days, so now’s the time to jump in and make a hopeful killing.
With almost $14 million raised so far, as well as catching the eye of Elon Musk, $WEPE has the mileage to go far and do well. Especially with huge transactions like this one coming in.
3. Catslap ($SLAP)
With a weird name and a slap-to-earn game thrown in for extra profit, well….you’d be forgiven for thinking that Catslap ($SLAP) is somebody’s idea of a bad joke. But far from it.
With a current token price of $0.00679474 and a staking APY of 40%, $SLAP has rocketed more than 4,000% in value during the last week.
The slap-to-earn game has $100,000 set aside for the top ten winners on the leaderboard, so there’s certainly plenty of liquidity available in the project.
Curious about how the game works? Basically, you ‘slap’ the meme, and the more you slap, the more $SLAP you earn. Along the way, Catslap will burn the promised number of coins to the top ‘Slappers.’
The developers hope that all of these features and the hype surrounding Catslap will propel the token price past $0.01, which would be a very nice return on your slapping investment.
4. Flockerz ($FLOCK)
If you’re regularly watching new meme coins like we are, you’ll notice there’s a consistent pattern – they all seem to be named after animals. Pepe the Frog, a slapping cat, and now blue Flockerz ($FLOCK) birds. Let’s hope you’re all animal lovers.
Every new meme coin has a unique selling point, and what sets $FLOCK apart is giving token owners voting rights over the platform’s future direction. So, by giving each token holder a say in how $FLOCK is run, they’re introducing a one-of-a-kind vote-to-earn feature.
$FLOCK absolutely has the potential to set up your “nest” egg with a current token price of $0.0063754 and a staking APY of 436%. But there are only two days until the end of the presale, so if you want to lock in that lower price and big “early-bird” staking rewards, then now is the time to act.
5. Best Wallet Token ($BEST)
If you’d rather move away from aggressive cats, weird-looking frogs, and bluebirds, then Best Wallet Token ($BEST) is a promising-looking coin to consider adding to your crypto portfolio.
$BEST is the token connected to the Best Wallet App, and when they’re combined, the developers behind the project hope to offer lower transaction fees and higher token staking.
Along with a Best Card to encourage transactions on the Best Wallet and giving token holders the opportunity to get involved in promising presales, $BEST is betting that these useful functions give $BEST a long-term game plan, which will encourage investors to support it.
The current token price is $0.023125, but the price goes up tomorrow. With a current staking APY of 671%, buying today instead of tomorrow could make a big difference in your crypto balance.
6. AAVE ($AAVE)
The AAVE ($AAVE) coin got a bit of a boost this week when rumors started circulating about World Liberty Financial – US President-Elect Donald Trump’s crypto firm – allegedly making an investment of $1M.
This has pushed AAVE’s price up more than 40% in the past week to a current value of around $370 a token. The price has dipped slightly in the past couple of days, but that seems to be indicative of an industry-wide trend and not because of one coin.
7. Chainlink ($LINK)
Chainlink ($LINK) is another cryptocurrency that got a $1M investment boost from Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial.
And despite a slight dip a couple of days ago, it seems to be recovering and heading steadily upwards. It’s now sitting pretty at just over 20% overall growth in the past 7 days, with a current token value of $28.
Like Best Wallet ($BEST), Chainlink is introducing its own token to go along with the decentralized blockchain network that it operates. Chainlink connects smart contracts to real-world data and APIs by giving them secure, tamper-proof data feeds.
8. BitGet ($BGB)
We end with BitGet ($BGB), which is really performing strongly at the moment, with bullish investor confidence estimated to be at 85%. And no wonder – in the last week alone, it’s seen 34% overall growth, with each token worth a very affordable $3.17.
In the past year, growth has been over 550% and investors are speculating that it could reach $5 -$10 per token by the end of December. There have been slight dips, and that’s to be expected with any investment opportunity. But with investor confidence so high, the future prospects of Bitget seem to be very bright.
Remember though – there can never be any guarantees on making money on crypto investments. We can only make expert predictions. You must now do your own research and make your own independent decisions.
It’s Good Times For Crypto
The crypto market is currently booming. Bitcoin hit the $100K mark and that bodes well for other scrappy and promising cryptocurrencies. An extremely pro-crypto president is entering the White House next month with plans to loosen the regulations on crypto markets.
All of the coins on this list are recommended by us, but the first two – $STARS and $WEPE – are our top picks because of their real-world use cases.
But to emphasize once again, we can only make predictions, not guarantees. Always do your own research and make your own decisions.
