$ETH
The cryptocurrencies with the greatest development potential over the next three years are influenced by numerous variables such as technological breakthroughs, policy adjustments, and market sentiment. Based on the market conditions and development trends as of August 2025, here are some promising cryptocurrencies:
- Bittensor (TAO): It is a decentralized machine learning network that rewards quality AI model contributors through the 'Yuma consensus' mechanism. Its current market capitalization exceeds $3.8 billion, with stable institutional holdings and an annualized staking yield of about 10%. As a leading cryptocurrency in the AI sector, it is expected to achieve significant growth due to the explosive demand for decentralized computing power.
- Ondo (ONDO): The protocol is used for the tokenization of US Treasury bonds and stablecoin yields, bridging traditional finance and DeFi. Its price is $1, with a market cap of $3.02 billion and an increasing trading volume. If the USDe stablecoin is widely adopted, its price could reach $3 to $5, representing a growth potential of 3 to 5 times.
- Ethereum (ETH): Its price has approached the key resistance level of $4,800, and a successful breakout could initiate a new 'price discovery' phase. According to Bitwise, institutions may purchase $20 billion worth of ETH in 2026, and due to supply-demand dynamics, it is expected to reach $10,000 in the long term.
- Solana (SOL): With its high transaction efficiency, it has attracted a large number of developers and projects in various fields such as NFT and DeFi. The AI model Gemini predicts that if market funds rotate to high-growth targets, the SOL price could surge to $500 to $1,000.
- Epic Chain (EPIC): As an Ethereum L2 blockchain, it focuses on the RWA (Real World Asset) transformation of games and NFTs, with a market cap of only $5.5 million and support from some key opinion leaders (KOLs). Due to its low market cap and the integration of GameFi and RWA concepts, there is high growth potential, with some analysts giving an optimistic expectation of a 200-fold increase.
