There are many other crypto projects that have the potential for massive growth and profits for investors.
This post profiles 5 smaller projects (in comparison to Ethereum) that are currently bullish which also have growth potentials.
I’ll start off with the advice that you take out time to do your own research before making any investment decision.
1. Avalanche (Avax)
One of the emerging players in the smart contracts and DeFi space, Avalanche, looks set to grow beyond it’s all time high of $79.73.
It is a blockchain platform that enables creation and deployment of low-cost, green and blazing fast smart contracts.
Avax is the native token that is issued by Avalanche, for securing the platform, payment of fees and also acts as a basic unit of account on Avalanche.
Price increase of Avax has been quite impressive within the recent past, with sustained growth in value, developers and community.
Avax is also geared up for a new ATH with the current bullish trend.
Avax is one of those crypto assets that you could hodl. Judging from its recent price action and potentials of the project.
2. Chainlink (Link)
Chainlink offers valuable blockchain services that enable platforms and applications to interact with external data feeds, events and payment methods. Due to its ability to integrate off-chain data into smart contracts, Chainlink has been able to attract trusted data providers such as Huobi and Alpha Vantage.
Link token is issued by Chainlink which is currently trading within the $22 — $25 range.
Link may well be on its way to $30 and above, other analysts predict a steep fall in prices should it fall below $20 support.
Recent developments and upgrades on the Chainlink network like the one-click templates for deploying smart contracts and increased utility are factors that will lead to a bullish run for Link.
Trading at $22 — $25, Link looks like a good buy with profit potential within the next few weeks.
3. Polkadot (Dot)
Polkadot is a multichain platform that enables cross-blockchain transfers of tokens, different data types, and assets.
It’s a project that was founded by the Web3 Foundation having Dr Gavin Wood, Robert Habermeier and Peter Czaban as founders.
Key Polkadot features include enabling cross-blockchain transfers, provision of a common set of validators for security of multiple blockchains, use of the Substrate framework and Polkadot upgrade without hard forks.
Dot is the native token issued by Polkadot which serves 3 distinct purposes of network governance, operations and creation of parachains.
Currently trading around the $30 mark, Dot has continued to gain despite the recent fall in crypto prices.
4. Elrond (Egld)

One major driver of EGLD’s market price is the increase in partnerships and integrations of other projects with the platform. This has expanded its capabilities and user base.
