Solana and Kaspa are likely to see growth, but they may face competition from emerging cryptocurrencies

Not Solana or Kaspa—these cryptos might lead the altcoin wave in 2025 Three altcoins, Pepe Unchained, Flockerz, and FreeDUM Fighters, are positioned to make waves in 2025. Pepe Unchained is developing a Layer-2 network for meme coins. Flockerz emphasizes decentralization and community engagement through a vote-to-earn model

Solana (SOL) and Kaspa (KAS) are the two top altcoins of this bull run. They have taken the spotlight with strong gains as well as ecosystem growth. However, can they maintain the momentum into 2025?

SOL and KAS could surge, and potentially set new all-time highs in the next bull run. However, with their market caps already heavy, they are unlikely to beat competition from promising new crypto coins.

Here are three underrated and underpriced coins that could lead the altcoin wave in 2025.

1. Pepe Unchained (PEPU)

Pepe Unchained is hosting the presale of its native token $PEPU now, and it has already crossed the $23 million milestone. It’s outrageous that millions of dollars would flow into a meme coin that hasn’t even launched. Is the world going crazy?

Probably the meme coin culture makes little sense, anyway. However, Pepe Unchained is not just a meme coin project. The packaging screams otherwise, but on a closer look, it is a utility token. The project is building a Layer-2 network for meme coins.

With Layer-2 projects like Polygon, Optimism, Arbitrum, and Base exploding, the growing interest in Pepe Unchained is understandable. Unlike them, Pepe Unchained has a niche. It will focus on providing a smooth and sustainable environment for meme coins.

The development team has a grand vision for the project. Here are the core features that the upcoming Layer-2 has planned:
Image-2-63Spotlight WireSpeed is one of the core highlights of the network. On Layer-1 blockchains like Ethereum, it is extremely difficult for meme coin traders and investors to make a move during busy markets. Pepe Unchained’s vision is to become a fast lane for meme coins.

Another pain point that the project addresses is transaction fees, which can skyrocket in bull cycles. With Pepe Chain, meme coin investors could make quick transactions at a fraction of the cost. That is if the project unfolds as laid out on the website and white paper. For example, the website says that Pepe Unchained could be 100 times quicker than Ethereum—with minimal fees.

The PEPU community is expanding. Over 40,000 accounts follow the project on Twitter (now X). The Telegram channel, on the other hand, has more than 10,000 members.

Having raised $23 million already, the PEPU presale window will close soon. Presale investors can opt for passive rewards during the holding period.

2. Flockerz (FLOCK)

Decentralisation and community are buzzwords in the crypto market. But how many crypto projects are actually decentralised? What role does the community have besides shilling the project on social media platforms and passively watching where the price goes?

Flockerz is a new meme coin project that aims to set a new benchmark in decentralisation and community participation. It is themed around a flock of birds that symbolises its community-centric vision.

Rather than just claiming to be community-centric, the project introduces a vote-to-earn model. It rewards users for joining decision-making. Here the collective of investors, or the community, has an active role in steering the project ahead.
Image-3-63Spotlight WireThey are not mere passive spectators on the sidelines. By wisely utilising voting power, they can influence the future of their investment. The responsibility is rewarded through the vote-to-earn model.

However, it is a community engagement tool as well. In addition, there is a passive reward system model designed to promote holding. It is live from the presale stage. However, the annual percentage yields (APY) go down over time.

Coming to the tokenomics, 25% is set aside for the token vault. The token supply will be stored in the DAO vault as the treasury chest with 25% being set aside to be distributed as passive income for early investors, 20% for marketing, 10% for liquidity, and the remaining 20% sold to early investors in the ongoing presale.
The large presale allocation reflects the decentralisation goal of the project. When a major share of the supply is concentrated in the hands of a few, it can have disastrous outcomes. The public presale gives small-scale investors a fair chance to grab the token at low prices before it is listed on exchanges.

3. FreeDUM Fighters (DUM)

The third crypto on the list of top altcoins to watch now is FreeDUM Fighters. Meme coins are known for converting humour and hype into financial returns. $DUM is a new meme coin that aims to capitalise on the ongoing election frenzy surrounding the US Presidential election. It brings political satire to the blockchain.

It can be described as the US Presidential face-off reimagined as a flashy parody. Here are two wildly exaggerated characters—Kamacop 9000 and MAGATRON. They fight against each other in a mock campaign of epic proportions.

Each character comes with an elaborate and ridiculous backstory that captures the chaotic spirit of the project. Participants can back their favourite characters and cast their “votes” using $DUM presale tokens. If the chosen candidate takes the crown in the spoof election, they will earn $DUM tokens.
Image-4-63Spotlight WireIn addition to mock campaigns, participants can join polls, debates, and other contests. Winners get rewards in $DUM tokens. The project offers a gamified take on politics. The entertaining format and unique crossover draw attention beyond the crypto market.

The popularity of tokens like MAGA (TRUMP) and Doland Tremp (TREMP) has ignited interest in PolitiFi coins in general. The niche has a market cap above $600 million now. MAGA has amassed $200 million in market cap. By gamifying the political arena, the niche gives people a way to participate in election season without its severity.

The FreeDUM Fighters presale is currently underway. Early adopters can buy $DUM tokens at fixed, discounted prices. The presale prices are set to rise with each stage, rewarding those who jump in early.
