The character of Sammie is a prodigious musician, which is exactly how Miles Caton has been described since he first began performing in church as a child. When he was only 16, Caton was given the opportunity to go on tour and sing background for Emmy, Grammy, and Oscar-winning musician, H.E.R. It was during the European tour that Caton tells me he saw a performance that he also felt was truly awe-inspiring.

“I think it was around 2022 or 2023 that we opened up for Coldplay,” he says. “We went on a European tour, and I remember the first time we saw their show, Coldplay’s show, and it was just crazy. We performed at Wembley Stadium, and it was like 50-60,000 people, and everybody in the room was just in awe of the whole production and just the sound. So that was one, for sure.” This performance was part of the Music of the Spheres World Tour, which many music critics have hailed as one of the band’s career-best live shows.
Performing for a massive audience is not the same as performing in an intimate setting like a film set, but Caton was up to the challenge. “As shocked as I am and as lost for words I am at how the response has been […], I’m extremely grateful, grateful to God for the opportunities that he presents in my life,” Caton tells me. “I feel like from the time I was a kid till now, everything has kind of just been like a stepping stone. I’ve been working pretty hard for this type of opportunity. So to be in this moment now, it feels great.”

Each week on Polygon, we round up the most notable new releases to streaming and VOD, highlighting the biggest and best new movies for you to watch at home.
This week, Captain America: Brave New World, the latest Marvel superhero movie starring Anthony Mackie and Harrison Ford, soars onto video on demand following its theatrical premiere in February. There are a few other exciting titles to rent this weekend, including The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie, The Woman in the Yard, and the action thriller A Working Man starring Jason Statham. There’s plenty new to streaming this week as well, like Pedro Almodóvar’s The Room Next Door on Netflix, the sci-fi horror comedy Companion on Max, the lycanthropic body-horror thriller Wolf Man on Peacock, and James Cameron’s special edition version of The Abyss on Disney Plus!
Here’s everything new that’s available to watch this weekend!
Where to watch: Available to stream on Netflix
Genre: Psychological dramaRun time: 1h 47mDirector: Pedro AlmodóvarCast: Julianne Moore, Tilda Swinton, John Turturro
Tilda Swinton and Julianne Moore play two friends, Martha and Ingrid, who reconnect after Martha is diagnosed with terminal cancer. Martha plans to end her life with euthanasia pills, instead of spending her final days in pain and anguish. She invites Ingrid on a trip to her country home so that the two can spend Martha’s final moments together. The Room Next Door is based on What Are You Going Through by Sigrid Nunez. It won the Golden Lion at the 2024 Venice International Film Festival.
An action thriller based on a true story, The Order follows an FBI agent who realizes that a pattern in recent crimes points to white supremacist group the Silent Brotherhood — also known as the Order. Led by cult leader Bob Mathews (played here by Nicholas Hoult), the Silent Brotherhood was active in the United States in the 1980s. The Order competed for the Golden Lion at the 2024 Venice International Film Festival.
Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) stars in this period drama as Bill Furlong, a devoted father and coal merchant who uncovers a terrible revelation behind a convent in his town, which in turn forces him to reckon with a shocking truth of his own. Based on Claire Keegan’s 2021 novel, Small Things Like These tackles the lingering controversy behind Ireland’s “Magdalene laundries.”
Where to watch: Available to stream on Disney Plus
Genre: Sci-fiRun time: 2h 20mDirector: James CameronCast: Ed Harris, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Michael Biehn
If there’s one thing James Cameron loves more than movies, it’s the ocean. Cameron’s love of deep-ocean exploration runs, well, deep — he was named a National Geographic explorer-in-residence and even became the first person to do a solo descent to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. All of which is to say: The man knows his submersibles.
The Abyss, Cameron’s 1989 sci-fi drama starring Ed Harris and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, has been one of the director’s most elusive movies to find on streaming. The premise centers on a divorced couple of petroleum engineers who, along with a Navy SEAL (Michael Biehn), embark on a top-secret mission to recover a nuclear submarine that’s mysteriously sunk in the deepest waters on the planet. Fans of James Cameron can finally experience the film in all its 4K glory on Disney Plus this week.

Sophie Thatcher stars in this dark sci-fi comedy as Iris, a young woman on a weekend getaway with her boyfriend and some friends. But, surprise! Iris is actually a companion robot rented by her boyfriend, who’s able to control her emotions and intelligence via an app on his phone. That’s not the only big secret that comes to light, as the weekend quickly unravels into bloody chaos.
Where to watch: Available to stream on Peacock
Image: Universal Pictures
Genre: Werewolf horrorRun time: 1h 43mDirector: Leigh WhannellCast: Christopher Abbott, Julia Garner, Matilda Firth
The latest in the ongoing, sort of accidental reboot of the Dark Universe, Wolf Man follows a man (Christopher Abbott) and his family on a trip back to his childhood home in the woods of Oregon. The only problem is there’s a monster loose in those woods, and it’s looking for new victims.
Set in British-controlled Burma in 1918, this historical drama centers on an unconventional couple: Edward (Gonçalo Waddington), a British civil servant who abandons his fiancée on the eve of their wedding, and Molly (Crista Alfaiate), his spurned fiancée who nevertheless pursues him relentlessly across the whole of Asia. Combining 16mm black-and-white cinematography with archival footage, Gomes won the award for Best Director at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, where Grand Tour competed for the the Palme d’Or.
Where to watch: Available to stream on Shudder
Genre: HorrorRun time: 1h 46mDirectors: Joe DeBoer, Kyle McConaghyCast: Sterling Macer Jr., John Fleck, Tomas Boykin
After receiving a mysterious blood-stained note from a captive man, a seasoned dead letter investigator goes on the hunt to return it to its sender. Obviously, things take a turn for the worse.
Captain America: Brave New World
Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu
Image: Disney/YouTube
Genre: Superhero actionRun time: 1h 58mDirector: Julius OnahCast: Anthony Mackie, Danny Ramirez, Harrison Ford
Set after the events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Captain America: Brave New World sees Sam Wilson — having fully embraced his role as the new Captain America — being called upon to resolve an international incident in the wake of a failed assassination attempt of newly elected President Thaddeus Ross (Harrison Ford). With time running out and the walls closing in, will Sam be able to come out on top and rescue the world from the brink of devastation? Probably!
As a Captain America movie, Brave New World is batting strongly below average. Its plot is at least mildly reminiscent of 2014’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but it’s both fair and unfair to compare the two. Unfair in that Winter Soldier is still among the best-regarded MCU movies, while BNW is running uphill from table-setting a potential new Captain America franchise, dealing with post-production rewrites and reshoots, and the general malaise of the MCU’s post-Avengers: Endgame audience. But fair in that, like Winter Soldier, BNW was also clearly designed as a grounded thriller (by the sliding scale of “grounded” in the MCU) featuring global political stakes and a superpowered conspiracy at its heart.
The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie
Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu
Genre: Sci-fi comedyRun time: 1h 31mDirector: Pete BrowngardtCast: Eric Bauza, Candi Milo, Peter MacNicol
The newest Looney Tunes movie was supposed to be released on Max — but then Warner Bros. decided to can a bunch of animation projects. Luckily, independent film distributor Ketchup Entertainment swooped in and handled the American theatrical release. The zany comedy follows Porky Pig and Daffy Duck as they scramble to save the world from an alien invasion. The movie’s got some impressive cartooning and lives up to the Looney Tunes pedigree.
Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu
Genre: Sports dramedyRun time: 1h 39mDirector: Carson LundCast: Keith William Richards, Frederick Wiseman, Cliff Blake
This sports dramedy follows a recreational baseball league as they play one final game before their beloved field is demolished in order to make room for a new middle school. The men all come together to celebrate the love of their game and muse about where they’re gonna go from here. While the field is based on a real one, the story of the team is fictional. And fun fact: The title of the movie comes from an unnaturally slow curveball!
Where to watch: Available to rent on Amazon, Apple, and Vudu
Jaume Collet-Serra’s new horror thriller centers on Ramona (Danielle Deadwyler), a recently widowed single mother mourning the loss of her husband. Left to raise her two children alone in a rural farmhouse, Ramona’s fears are only intensified by the strange appearance of woman clothed in a black veil on her front lawn, ominously warning her that “today’s the day.” As the woman’s presence steadily grows more alarming and invasive, Ramona is pushed to her breaking point as she struggles to protect everything she has left.

Former Olympian Daley Thompson was the third housemate to be evicted from this year’s Celebrity Big Brother series.
Last Friday (April 11), former conservative MP Michael Fabricant became the first star booted off. Meanwhile, iconic chat show host Trisha Goddard was evicted on Tuesday (April 15).
However, during tonight’s (April 18) live show, EastEnders legend Patsy Palmer and Daley faced the public vote after receiving the most nominations. With fans choosing to save their favourite, Daley received the least amount of votes and walked out the door.

“Not gonna lie, Daley was definitely the right person to leave tonight,” a third person expressed.
“I need that crowd to stop cheering for Daley,” a fourth said.
“The relief when Daley was evicted from the house,” a fifth user wrote.
During his time in the house, Daley rubbed viewers the wrong way after his views about transgender people resurfaced.

Days of Our Lives star Billy Flynn quit the NBC soap so now we get to see Chad DiMera exit in a few months. But how will the Peacock soap opera get rid of Chad given Billy leaving?
In just a few months, we get final scenes of Chad DiMera in early 2026. So the big question is how does he exit?
Will Chad be killed off? Will he be recast? Or will some other twisted misadventure take him out of Salem? Let’s dive into this coming exit.
The Shocking Exit of Billy Flynn: What’s Next for Chad DiMera on Days of Our Lives?
Of course, it was a huge shock when the news broke that Billy Flynn quit Days of Our Lives. He’s heading over to Young and the Restless to play a brand new role they created for him.
Since Days shoots eight to nine months ahead, we’ll still have Chad DiMera in storylines into early 2026. That means heading into Fall and Winter, we’ll see DOOL laying the groundwork to set up Billy Flynn’s exit.
We recently saw behind-the-scenes footage of a 60th-anniversary photo shoot. And Billy Flynn was in shots with two other actors. That was AnnaLynne McCord and Dan Feuerriegel.
Of course, the three of them play Chad, Cat Greene, and EJ DiMera. So it’s a big question of why is Cat in photos paired with these two brothers?
It kind of teases a love triangle. Or maybe a transfer of Cat’s affections from Chad over to EJ. Days of Our Lives may pivot her character in light of Chad leaving Salem in coming months.
Because the scenes air in episodes in November, it’s just a couple of months before Billy Flynn has his final air date. So, we may get some Chad action with Cat and EJ in the mix.
With that in mind, let’s talk about how they may exit Chad DiMera. And whether it’s going to be in a body bag or heading out of town for some reason. Or they may recast the role and replace Billy Flynn.
Death, Recast, or Reunion? Exploring the Potential Exit Strategies for Chad DiMera
The first and most obvious way that they may take Chad off Days of Our Lives is just to simply kill him off. The DiMeras lose family members fairly regularly.
However, they tend to come back from the dead eventually. So if they write out Billy Flynn’s character, they could bring him back at any point.
Heck, some DiMeras died more than once. EJ, for instance, is a case of coming back from the dead again. He’s again on the brink of death but wakes next week.
I do have to say I really don’t want to see Chad DiMera die. But since awful Clyde Weston (James Read) could wake from his coma at any point, he could prove dangerous to Chad’s ongoing good health.
So, creepy Clyde may kill him. So, death is definitely behind door number one at Days of Our Lives as a possibility for Chad’s fate and why he leaves the soap.
Recast Ahead for Chad on DOOL?
The second very obvious option to deal with Billy Flynn quitting the Peacock soap opera is simply to recast him. As you know, Days has no issue with doing recasts.
They did it with Brandon Barash (Stefan DiMera), replacing Tyler Christopher, God rest his soul. Cherie Jimenez now plays Camila Banus‘ role as Gabi Hernandez.
They even have Cady McClain and Melissa Reeves splitting time playing Jennifer Horton. Of course, the most controversial recent recast was when they swapped fan favorite Jen Lilley with Emily O’Brien. She took over as Theresa Donovan.
It could be that Days of Our Lives already auditioned Billy Flynn’s replacement, but we just don’t know it. There’s such a long lag because of how far ahead they film. We often find things out months later.
Death and recasting are both very common solutions on Days to any actor exit issues. So we may say bye to Chad or to Billy or to both the actor and the character come 2026.
If something happens, some accident that puts Chad into a coma, for instance. To me, that’s a red flag that they will recast the role at some point — even if they don’t replace Billy Flynn right away.
Reunion with Abigail Deveraux on Days of our Lives
A more satisfying exit for fans might be for Chad to leave Salem to reunite with Abigail DiMera, who turns out to be alive.
Chad’s been through the wringer since Clyde murdered Abby. Then, he was tormented by Cat pulling that fake Abby con. With Clyde in that coma and Abby’s grave empty, we still don’t know for sure if she is dead or alive.
Maybe Clyde wakes up and finally tells the truth. He may have Abigail held somewhere and she is very much alive. Or somebody else could tell Chad they have a lead on where Abby’s at and that she is alive and well.
Days of our Lives: Chad DiMera played by Billy Flynn
Exclusive Rumor: Will Gwen Reveal Abigail’s Fate to Chad on DOOL?
I heard a rumor/leak that Gwen Rizczech may be the one with info for Chad on the fate of her half-sister. I mentioned it in a leak video.
But the idea of an off-screen Abby and Chad reunion certainly has its appeal because at least they’d be reunited. But it’d be better on-screen on Days of Our Lives.
Now, a slightly less satisfying version of the Abby-Chad situation would be if he got a solid lead on where Abby is. But Chad doesn’t know if he’ll find his beloved wife alive or just her remains.
Between now and then, Chad may be dating Cat. But most fans want Chad to pursue Abigail at least long enough to find the answer of whether she survived that brutal stabbing from Clyde.
So we could again see Chad getting some sort of hint. He may pack up the kids, drop them with Jennifer Horton and Jack Deveraux (Matthew Ashford) in Boston.
Then, Chad may head off Days of Our Lives. That way, he can see if he can get some closure. He can find out if she’s dead and lay her remains to rest.
Or, he may reunite with Abby if she is still alive. So, a quest could be how they exit Chad DiMera.
Moving On or Moving Away? Chad’s Potential Epiphany and Departure from Salem
One last way Days of Our Lives may write the character off as Billy Flynn leaves is for Chad to have some sort of epiphany. He may decide he can’t be in Salem because the memories are too hard.
He’s getting closer to Cat, but people don’t approve. And Chad probably won’t want to deal with the heat. So, he may decide he’s got to put Cat behind him.
He may decide to take his kids, and get out of Salem. It may all be too much to deal with and moving on with Cat feels wrong.
Chad could take the kids to his and Abby’s apartment in Paris to live. Or Chad could decide to move them across the country. They could relocate to Boston to be near his in-laws.
That way, they could all have a fresh start on somewhere where they have more family but fewer painful memories than they have in Salem.
Of course, we will let you know when we know Billy Flynn’s final air date as Chad DiMera on Days of Our Lives. We’ll be sure to share official spoilers on how he’ll exit once they come out.
And, of course, if my leaker shares some tidbits, I will let you guys know that too.
Circle and eToro have entered “quiet periods.” IPO soon?
Bitcoin miners are selling off BTC at faster and larger clips.
Semler turns to Coinbase for help settling its DOJ fine, and much more in this week’s Public Keys.
Public Keys is a weekly roundup from Decrypt that tracks the key publicly traded crypto companies. This week: Reading tea leaves during Circle and eToro quiet periods, Bitcoin miners selling a lot of Bitcoin, and Semler Scientific offering securities to raise cash to buy Bitcoin to secure a loan to pay the DOJ.
It’s oh so quiet
There was a jolt of excitement this week when USDC stablecoin issuer Circle told Decrypt the company is in a mandatory quiet period on account of having filed their S-1 at the start of the month.
Initially, it sounded like a subtle nod that the company would forge ahead with plans to go public even as rumors swirl that other newly announced tech IPOs are getting sidelined. The most commonly cited reason is President Donald Trump’s ongoing trade war and the uncertain future for tariffs.
But when Decrypt reached out to trading platform eToro, which has also submitted its paperwork to go public, the company had a similar response: “We are still in a quiet period and so can’t make any comment around a potential IPO,” a spokesperson said.
Even if unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg or The Wall Street Journal are right about tech companies having second thoughts, the quiet period doesn’t just go away. Only an official withdrawal, filed with the SEC, can do that.
Mine the Bitcoin, sell the Bitcoin
It’s been another week of not-so-great news for Bitcoin miners, this time punctuated by companies selling their BTC.
Data firm CryptoQuant said in a Tuesday report that miners last week stepped up their selling as the price of the biggest cryptocurrency dropped below $80,000.
The firm said that on April 7, miners sold a total of 15,000 BTC—the third-largest daily outflow this year. That’s at least $1.12 billion worth, based on the day’s low price of less than $75,000.
Now, it’s not unusual that a Bitcoin mining firm would sell some of its BTC. But when the rate at which mining companies are selling shows a sharp uptick, it’s a sign of trouble.
In June 2024, miners liquidated $200 million worth of reserves as Bitcoin’s price hovered around $66,000. This newest round makes that pretty minor.
Semler’s DOJ settlement plan
Bitcoin treasury company and medical tech startup Semler Scientific, which trades on the Nasdaq under the SMLR ticker, disclosed in an SEC filing that it’s secured a loan from Coinbase Credit to pay what it hopes will be a settlement with the Department of Justice.
“If Semler Sci is able to reach a settlement with DOJ,” the company wrote, “Semler Sci intends to borrow under the Coinbase master loan agreement and use such proceeds (along with its cash on hand) to pay the proposed settlement with DOJ.”
The company has been under fire for claims of potential violations of a federal anti-fraud law related to its marketing of QuantaFlo, its flagship product.
It’s not unusual to have a master loan agreement with Coinbase Credit. But it gets a little murky when you consider that Semler just announced it’s making a $500 million securities offering to raise cash to buy more Bitcoin—some of which it will use as collateral to secure its Coinbase loan.
Bitcoin miners Hut 8 has a Coinbase line of credit for “general corporate purposes” and Cipher Mining has had a $10 million line of credit since last year. Another Bitcoin miner, CleanSpark, just increased its line of credit with Coinbase to $200 million and ditched its HODL strategy, saying it would begin “using a portion of its monthly Bitcoin production to support operational expenditures and repayment of the credit.”
Coinbase Credit shows up in many Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF filings, too. But, wait—put down your pitchforks. It’s not because the BTC and ETH backing those ETF shares is being lent out.
The funds, like iShares Bitcoin Trust, use Coinbase as a short-term liquidity provider to help pay sponsor fees and cover transaction costs without immediately needing to liquidate crypto assets.
Speaking of Coinbase
The crypto exchange, which trades on the Nasdaq under the COIN ticker, is once again the subject of a state securities regulator lawsuit.
Oregon regulators filed their complaint Friday, accusing the crypto exchange of violating state law by driving and promoting the sale of cryptocurrencies as unregistered securities. Earning “millions of dollars in fees as Oregonians faced huge losses,” the state attorney general said in a statement.
Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal was none too pleased, having very recently celebrated the dismissal of the SEC’s case against the company in February.
“The U.S. showed it was ready to turn the page on that dark, misguided chapter of unlawfully targeting the industry,” Grewal wrote. “But Oregon’s Attorney General refuses to face that reality and is trying to fight the same war all over again.”
Other Keys
Fake token, real pain. No, there isn’t an official token for Base, the Coinbase incubated Ethereum L2. But wow, our condolences to anyone who got rekt thinking there was one.

Mick violently attacked Sean Tully in Coronation Street tonight (Friday, April 18), beating him to a pulp after he reported Brody’s misbehavior at the STC.
Sean learned that Mick and Lou were the parents of thug Brody too late – and copped a battering (offscreen) from his vengeful dad. Arriving home after taking care of business, Mick assured Lou that the situation was ‘all sorted.’
He then asked Gemma to cover his whereabouts. And where had he been? Punching poor Sean into a paste. Ouch.

Mick attacked Sean on Coronation Street tonight
Happening across the ugly scene, Theo found Sean battered and bloody in the alleyway. Believing that he’d been mugged, he insisted that Sean get himself checked out at the hospital.
Questioned by Eileen and Craig, Sean admitted that it had been Mick. Mick denied any wrongdoing. Later, he cornered Gemma, leaving her fearful as he made subtle threats about the kids.
Later, she pressed Sean to recant his statement, warning him that this might be the start of something even more terrible. Terrified, Sean returned to the station, where he set about changing his statement.
But what will he do next – and will that be enough to get Mick off his back?

Feel good in your skin! Formula Fig founder JJ Walsh sat down with ET to reveal how she prioritizes skincare with high-tech facials, fish DNA, and more.
And while her wellness routine is plentiful now, the businesswoman has come a long way.
“I wasn’t always into skincare. It wasn’t until my 30s and after having a few children, that I realized the importance of it,” she spills.
Formula Fig
“Looking back, I wish I’d been more diligent about applying sunscreen and introduced actives into my routine in my mid-20s,” she admits.
Since then, Walsh faced common skincare concerns like hormonal breakouts, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines and wrinkles, and created a solution with the opening of her immersive facial spas in Los Angeles, California and Canada in 2019.
Now, the CEO prioritizes monthly facials paired with extra add-ons every six weeks.
“The All-In is my one-stop favorite. It includes physical exfoliation, ultrasound, and a range of other high-tech modalities,” she notes.
Formula Fig
From there, you can include the Collagen and Texture option for an immediate glow with nano-needling with silicone tips, or their newest innovation, the Longevity Treatment, which is Formula Fig’s take on the popular salmon sperm facials loved by Jennifer Aniston, Kim and Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Amanda Kloots, and Denise Richards.
Think: A 60-minute microneedling session with a mixture of PDRN, a.k.a. salmon DNA, exosomes, and copper peptides to increase collagen production, finished with LED light therapy to heal the skin.
“Together, these ingredients reduce inflammation, boost hydration, accelerate recovery, and stimulate regeneration at a cellular level,” Walsh explains.
Formula Fig
As for the results? “Expect improved skin texture, tone, and elasticity. You will build a stronger, more resilient skin barrier beautifully over time. It’s not about a quick fix, it’s about transformation.”
“For me, skincare is less about beauty in a traditional sense, and more about vitality and wellness. … Time is one of my most important currencies, so efficacy and efficiency guide my skincare routine. I’m diligent, but it has to take less than five minutes in the morning and night,” she says.
“I’ve become someone who just needs a solid skincare routine, a slick of mascara, and a bit of under-eye cover-up to feel ready for the day. … When my skin feels and looks vibrant and healthy, it boosts my confidence.”

In contrast, one project seems to be doing exactly what others aren’t—BlockDAG (BDAG) is rewarding participation and building momentum through frequent events. As the presale surges towards the $600 million target, with $215 million already raised, some are even already calling BDAG the best crypto to buy now. Whether it’s short-term bets or long-term plays, the market’s got a little something for every kind of trader right now.
BCH Price Prediction Hangs on Key Support Zone
Recent Bitcoin Cash (BCH) price predictions point to increased uncertainty as BCH faces bearish pressure from both derivatives and spot markets. The Bitcoin Cash price prediction has grown more cautious after funding rates turned negative—signaling that traders may be bracing for further declines. At the same time, one-year holders are selling into weakness, which compounds concerns about downward pressure.
Despite a sharp 4% dip in the last 24-hours, some analysts view the pullback as a possible buy-the-dip opportunity, especially if support holds. Currently trading near $320–the Bitcoin Cash price prediction charts show a descending triangle, and a move above resistance could shift sentiment. For now, traders remain watchful as short-term indicators point to modest weakness, but the potential for a rebound isn’t off the table.
DOGE News: Traders Split as Tariff Tensions Ease
Recent Dogecoin (DOGE) news shows the token dipping almost 5% in the last day and a little over 11% in the last month, while major assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum held steady. The broader sentiment appears torn between fear of a U.S. recession and relief from easing tariff speculation. According to the latest DOGE news, derivative market weakness is showing through falling funding rates and flat open interest, which could be warning signs of further downside risk.
However, the DOGE news also highlights consistent net outflows from exchanges, suggesting spot buyers are quietly accumulating the meme coin. Technicals show a descending triangle pattern forming, and analysts suggest DOGE must hold above the $0.1428 level to avoid a deeper slide.So, while futures traders seem cautious, the retail crowd hasn’t tapped out just yet.
BlockDAG (BDAG) is speeding up—and bringing its community along for the ride. The coin is currently priced at $0.0248, the project has raised over $215 million and 19.2 billion coins have been sold since its presale began. Now in batch 27, early backers are already seeing a 2,380% ROI, making it one of the most talked-about launches this year.
The project’s current 600% bonus offer adds major buying appeal, especially alongside regular AMAs that keep users in the loop and excited for the next steps. Each event tends to spark a huge influx of new purchases, and the recently 7th AMA has started to deliver similar results, pushing the project closer to its $600 million presale goal.
Its reward system isn’t limited to just bonuses. BlockDAG runs activity-based incentives on its Beta Testnet and even offers giveaways like $2,000 in BDAG for top users once the coin goes live. Plus, strategic partnerships—like those with Inter Milan, HackerEarth, and SpaceDev—lend credibility. Plus, the team’s presence at ETHPanama, Token2049 Dubai, and Token2049 Singapore reflects serious commitment to global exposure.
A winning combo of generous rewards and regular community engagement is responsible for the project’s impressive presale numbers. At the end of the day, it’s simple—BlockDAG is stacking wins by showing up, giving back, and keeping things exciting. BDAG is the best crypto to buy now for traders who are searching for a crypto that delivers and rewards its community.
Final Thoughts!
As traders weigh the latest Bitcoin Cash price prediction and watch as Dogecoin news shifts by the day, BlockDAG is taking a different route—one that’s working. Through consistent community events, generous rewards, and transparency during every major update, BlockDAG isn’t just talking growth—it’s showing it.
The 600% bonus is a huge draw, but it’s the hands-on engagement, recently concluded AMA, and real-world partnerships that are keeping interest high and the community engaged. As other projects cool off or stall, BlockDAG is pushing closer to its $600 million presale goal, while also rewarding its community along the way. Anyone searching for the best crypto to buy now might not need to look much further. BlockDAG is moving—and it’s bringing thousands along for the ride.

The crypto market in April 2025 is buzzing with early-stage opportunities. But with so many tokens vying for attention, how do you separate hype from actual potential? The answer lies in identifying projects with working products, active presales, and strong fundamentals. These are the investments that deliver not just speculation, but scalable value. If you’re seeking short-term gains with long-term vision, these are the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025.
Leading the pack are five standout tokens: BlockDAG, Web3Bay, Cold Wallet, Dragoin, and Web3 ai. Each is solving a unique problem in the Web3 space—whether it’s blockchain speed, e-commerce decentralization, data privacy, meme coin scarcity, or AI-powered trading. All five are currently in presale, offering early backers a rare opportunity to enter at discount prices before listings go live
BlockDAG (BDAG) — $214M Raised and Mainnet in 4 Months
BlockDAG is rapidly becoming one of the most watched infrastructure plays in 2025. With over $214 million raised, 16,600+ ASIC miners sold, and 1 million + X1 mobile app users, it’s clear this project is far beyond the whitepaper stage. What makes BlockDAG different is its use of Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) architecture instead of a traditional blockchain.
This allows blocks to be created and processed in parallel, making it faster, cheaper, and more scalable than most layer-1s on the market. It’s also EVM-compatible, meaning Ethereum-based dApps can migrate with ease. BlockDAG’s presale is in Batch 27 at $0.0248, and with a projected 2,380% ROI based on post-listing estimates, it’s attracting both miners and DeFi builders.
With mainnet launch just 4 months away, it’s one of the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025 for investors looking to back a next-gen chain with real traction
Web3Bay (3BAY) — The Amazon of Web3, Already Raised $1.7M+
Web3Bay is building a decentralized, peer-to-peer e-commerce platform that removes middlemen and gives power back to buyers and sellers. Instead of paying 10–30% in fees to centralized platforms like Amazon or eBay, Web3Bay users transact directly via smart contracts. The platform integrates both crypto and fiat payments, including PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay—bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3.
The 3BAY token, currently priced at $0.00524 in Stage 5, has already raised over $1.7 million, with 400M tokens sold. Token holders get 5% purchase discounts, staking rewards, and full voting power in future platform decisions via DAO governance. As e-commerce expands globally, Web3Bay is becoming one of the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025, especially for investors seeking real-world utility and mass adoption potential
Cold Wallet (CWT) — The First Always-On Wallet With Cold Storage Privacy
Cold Wallet is solving one of Web3’s most critical problems: exposure. Most wallets leak user data through IP tracking, on-chain profiling, and third-party analytics. Cold Wallet eliminates all of that by acting like a cold wallet—even while online. It uses zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to ensure hidden balances, private transactions, and anonymous authentication.
Unlike other privacy tokens, Cold Wallet isn’t just an idea—it’s a full ecosystem built around user control and data sovereignty.
The $CWT token is currently priced at $0.007, with a listing target of $0.35, offering a massive 4,900% ROI potential. As regulatory surveillance increases, Cold Wallet is emerging as one of the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025 for privacy-conscious users, traders, and institutions
Dragoin (DDGN) — Meme Coin Power With Scarcity That Works
Dragoin is bringing smart tokenomics to the meme coin world. Unlike most meme tokens that inflate endlessly, Dragoin features a built-in burn mechanism that reduces supply with every transaction, increasing long-term value. Its viral branding is supported by deflationary economics and community-focused incentives, making it a rare meme coin with real staying power.
The DDGN token is in public presale, with a launch price of $0.002 and a projected 6,1647% upside based on current valuation metrics. As meme mania resurfaces in 2025, Dragoin stands out by offering not just entertainment but smart economics. That makes it a clear contender among the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025, especially for high-risk, high-reward portfolios
Web3 ai (WAI) — AI Tools That Actually Work, From Day One
Web3 ai is an all-in-one crypto intelligence suite that merges machine learning, NLP, and neural networks to deliver smarter trading, yield farming, and risk management tools. Unlike AI tokens that are still in concept mode, Web3 ai has 12 working tools live from day one, including a trading bot, scam detector, arbitrage engine, and staking advisor.
It pulls data from Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and more—then uses AI to generate actionable insights for traders and investors. The WAII token is priced at $0.0003 (Batch 1), with a listing price of $0.00524, giving early buyers up to 1647% ROI potential.
It also supports staking, revenue sharing, and governance. As AI continues to dominate global tech headlines, Web3 ai is carving out a serious niche in crypto—and it’s easily one of the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025
Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025
Each of these projects offers more than hype—they’re building functional ecosystems with clear use cases. BlockDAG is scaling blockchain infrastructure. Web3Bay is reinventing online marketplaces. Cold Wallet protects users from digital surveillance. Dragoin adds real economics to meme coins.
Web3 ai brings powerful AI tools into crypto’s most crucial decisions. With strong presale performance, defined roadmaps, and massive ROI potential, these tokens are the Leading 5 Cryptos to Watch in April 2025—and getting in now could make all the difference before they go live on major exchanges.
