As Bitcoin and other major coins continue to struggle to post consistent growth, many traders are turning to new cryptocurrencies as alternative investments.
There are hundreds of new crypto tokens launching this August, but only a handful are likely to beat the market and offer a chance to turn early investors into crypto millionaires.
We’ve analyzed dozens of new coins and found 8 emerging cryptos with high potential.
WienerAI
WienerAI is one of the biggest new meme coins expected to launch in August. The project just raised more than $9 million in its $WAI token presale, with just 3 days left to buy in.
$WAI will soon launch on Uniswap, the largest decentralized exchange on Ethereum, although the project team hasn’t specified an exact date yet.
WienerAI has attracted a huge amount of attention not just because of its viral dachshund mascot, but also thanks to the AI-powered crypto trading bot the project is building. The bot will use a ChatGPT-like interface, making it easy for traders to ask about setups for specific coins they’re watching or trades that fit a particular strategy.
On top of that, WienerAI’s bot will be able to outrun MEV bots, help traders find the best DEX for each trade, and enable fee-free token swaps. It has the potential to fundamentally change how traders approach the crypto market.
In the final days of the WienerAI presale, investors can buy $WAI with ETH, BNB, or USDT. This project is readying for an explosive launch, so don’t miss this last chance to buy $WAI before it hits exchanges.
Poodlana
Poodlana is a hilarious new meme coin built on Solana that features an absolutely stunning dog mascot. The joke behind Poodlana is that its poodle mascot is the Hermes of crypto—far more glamorous than Dogecoin’s shiba inu or the Dogwifhat dog.
The project has done an outstanding job of building a ‘Devil Wears Prada’ vibe, turning the $POODL token into a valuable commodity that everyone wants to own. While the focus right now is on the $POODL presale, the project plans to roll out developments like staking rewards and airdrops in the future.
The $POODL presale has already raised more than $3.6 million, making it one of the fastest-growing meme coins of the summer. The presale is scheduled to end on August 16, with listing on Solana’s Raydium DEX coming just 60 minutes later.
Pepe Unchained
Pepe Unchained is the first Ethereum Layer-2 based on the ultra-popular Pepe meme, and it’s generated a lot of excitement among Ethereum investors and meme coin traders. Within weeks of launching the $PEPU presale, the project has raised more than $6.4 million and is well on its way to selling out.
The Pepe Unchained Layer-2 will use $PEPU to pay for transaction fees, creating a surge of demand for the token. The network is expected to be 100x faster than Ethereum and a lot cheaper, positioning it as one of the best places to trade meme coins. In the long run, Pepe Unchained could even edge out Solana as the #1 chain for creating new meme coins.
During the Pepe Unchained presale, investors can fill their bags with $PEPU thanks to massive 301% APY staking rewards. The project has been audited by both Coinsult and SolidProof, providing confidence that the Pepe Unchained network is secure.
Investors can buy $PEPU now using ETH, BNB, or USDT and get a discounted price of only $0.0087693. However, the next price increase is less than a day away, so don’t wait to join the Pepe Unchained presale.
GlareTap
GlareTap is a new tap-to-earn crypto game that’s blazing its own path in this new niche. Whereas most tap-to-earn games have been built for Telegram on TON Network, GlareTap is built on Base. In addition, instead of launching a game first and releasing tokens without a presale, GlareTap is holding a presale first and plans to launch its game after the $GLARETAP token debuts.
These differences could help GlareTap to become one of the biggest tap-to-earn games yet, surpassing even Notcoin and Hamster Kombat. The $GLARETAP presale has raised more than $900,000 and is rapidly closing in on its $1 million hard cap. Less than 2 days remain for investors to buy $GLARETAP before it hits decentralized exchanges.
Once the game launches, GlareTap users can look forward to even more rewards. Like other tap-to-earn games, GlareTap plans a massive airdrop—35% of the total token supply—for top players and early $GLARETAP token holders.
99Bitcoins
99Bitcoins is one of the biggest crypto education platforms, with more than 2.8 million subscribers and nearly 80 hours of interactive course content.
The platform is making waves with its new token, $99BTC, which will transform 99Bitcoins into a juggernaut in the learn-to-earn space.
$99BTC token holders will be able to earn coins every time they complete a course on 99Bitcoins. They’ll also get access to exclusive new content and proprietary trading signals, enabling them to put what they’ve learned to the test to turn a profit from the crypto market.
99Bitcoins is also rewarding $99BTC token holders with generous staking rewards. During the presale, early investors can earn an eye-watering 672% APY.
The 99Bitcoins presale has raised more than $2.5 million and is scheduled to close on August 6. While the presale remains open, investors can buy $99BTC at a discounted price of $0.00116 using ETH, BNB, or USDT. However, the presale will close in just four days.
The 99Bitcoins launch has the potential to be one of the biggest events in crypto education this year, so don’t miss this chance to buy $99BTC before it launches.
StakeLayer
StakeLayer is an exciting new project that’s effectively an EigenLayer for Bitcoin: it enables efficient cross-chain restaking for BTC. The project’s goal is to make it easier for Bitcoin owners to earn yield from their tokens and distribute their liquidity across multiple chains to guard against risk.
EigenLayer’s launch was one of the biggest events in DeFi since the crypto winter, and it looks likely that StakeLayer’s launch could be just as significant. The project fills an important gap for BTC holders who have been mostly left out of the yield farming craze available for altcoin owners.
The StakeLayer presale has raised more than $2 million in sales of its $STAKE token, which is native to Binance Smart Chain. During the presale, investors can buy $STAKE with ETH, USDT, SOL, BNB, BASE, AVAX, OP, and more. The next price increase is just a day away, so there’s no time to wait to join the StakeLayer presale.
PlayDoge
PlayDoge is an exciting play-to-earn game and meme coin modeled on the ultra-successful game Tamagotchi, which sold more than 82 million units worldwide in the 1990s.
In PlayDoge, players get a virtual doge companion and earn $PLAY tokens as they care for their pet. They can also take their doge on 20 side adventures inspired by classic video games to earn even more $PLAY tokens.
$PLAY can be redeemed for in-game upgrades, making it easier for players to earn even more tokens in the future. Alternatively, investors and players can stake their $PLAY—right now, the project is offering a staking rate of 80% APY.
PlayDoge plans to launch on iOS and Android devices, so the potential audience for this game is massive. It could draw in millions of people who aren’t traditionally gamers, but who loved the style of Tamagotchi and are excited for an updated version with even more play options.
The PlayDoge presale is going on now and has raised more than $5.8 million from $PLAY token sales. The next price increase is less than 2 days away, so investors and gamers have to hurry to buy $PLAY and lock in the best price.
Hamster Kombat
Hamster Kombat is a truly massive tap-to-earn game on Telegram that now boasts more than 300 million users. That comes after Hamster Kombat set a record as the fastest app to reach 100 million users, edging out even ChatGPT.
Hamster Kombat has promised players an airdrop of its $HMSTR token for months, and the airdrop looks likely to happen in August. The project team recently teased ‘the largest airdrop in the history of crypto’ and $HMSTR could start trading on major centralized exchanges as soon as it hits players’ wallets.
Since Hamster Kombat isn’t holding a traditional presale, there’s no way to buy $HMSTR ahead of the launch. Instead, investors can join the tap-to-earn game to earn points towards the airdrop, or simply be ready to buy $HMSTR as soon as it starts trading.
