Crypto projects that survived the last crypto winter (2022-2023) show varied performance in this cycle as of March 25, 2025. Resilient projects like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have thrived, hitting new highs due to strong fundamentals and institutional adoption. Solana (SOL) has also excelled, leveraging its speed and low costs to grow in DeFi and NFTs. Stablecoins (e.g., USDT, USDC) remain steady with rising utility, while innovative projects in RWA tokenization and AI-blockchain integration gain traction. However, weaker projects lacking real use cases have stagnated or faded, with market preference shifting toward utility and resilience.
