Sell in May and walk away. Have you heard of this before? Well, May is actually not that bad for crypto at all. You want to reconsider this strategy. In other words, hodl. Many experts expect this bull cycle’s final leg soon. However, first expect a pullback. Bitcoin may drop to $91k and will take all altcoins with it. But, after that pullback, we could see that last bull run leg being kickstarted.
That’s why I will look at three altcoins that have a 10X potential during this run. Let’s dive straight into this altcoins list.
Hedera ($HBAR)
My first 10x altcoins pick for today is Hedera ($HBAR). What sets Hedera apart from other crypto projects, is that it isn’t a blockchain. Instead, it’s a hashgraph. This allows for faster and more efficient processing of transactions. So, ideal for money transfers. See how it works in thevideo below.
Banks and governments like this a lot. Especially governments like CBDCs, a field that Hedera is active in. Now, whether you like CBDCs or not, is a different question. However, it looks like they will be part of the crypto sector, sooner or later.
But that’s not the only thing that Hedera does. There’s more, for example,
- It integrated Chainlink’s CCIP, or interoperability protocol. This connects Hedera with 46 other chains.
- Hedera is preparing for an AI hackathon. This should bring AI to the hashgraph.
Chainlink x Hedera
@chainlink‘s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) is LIVE on Hedera mainnet! Developers can now build secure cross-chain apps across 46+ blockchains. Big boost for DeFi and tokenized assets.

There’s also an $HBAR ETF filing by Grayscale. The SEC needs to decide on this ETF latest by11th November 2025. Given the current restructuring within the SEC, it’s likely to get approved. With the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF approvals, we saw an initial dump before both started to pump. Bitcoin pumped much harder, by the way.

With the current $HBAR price around 17 cents, it looks like a great entry. Its current ATH is 57 cents from three years ago. However, in our Alpha Discord, our team mentioned waiting for a dip in the $HBAR price.
$HBAR is currently in a downtrend and the long-term price action looks bearish. The $HBAR ETF approval is bullish for the long term. However, in the short term, there will most likely be a sell off.
Chainlink ($LINK)
My next token in today’s list of 10x altcoins is Chainlink and its $LINK token. If you’ve been following this channel, you know that $LINK is an Altcoin Buzz fave. As you may know, Chainlink is an oracle. As such, it’s the absolute market leader. Its market cap is 18x as big as Pyth, #2 in this list.
Oracles are essential for blockchains. That’s because blockchains can’t communicate with the outside, or the real world. So, that’s where oracles come to the rescue. They offer data feeds to blockchains with all kinds of information. Besides gathering and relaying info, they also verify the information. See how an oracle works in the video below.
For example, betting sites need sport results or financial market prices. Like crypto, stocks, or commodities. Oracles can also offer election result information, and much more. By now, Chainlink has a massive ecosystem. Check the picture below.

So, let’s see what’s happening at Chainlink.
PayPal added $LINK in the US to its PayPal and Venmo users. This allows US users to access $LINK as the Universal Gas Token.
We’re excited to announce that $LINK is now available on @PayPal and @Venmo.
Now hundreds of millions of U.S. users across both platforms can access the Universal Gas Token—the native payment and staking token of the Chainlink Network.

The Ronin Network is, among others, home of Axie Infinity. That’s one of the most successful blockchain games ever. They also had the Ronin Bridge. However, the bridge is no longer since 25th April, and Ronin switched to CCIP. That’s Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol. Ronin migrated $450 million worth of assets to CCIP.
.@Ronin_Network has officially migrated its legacy Ronin Bridge and all supported assets ($450M+ across 12 assets) to Chainlink CCIP as the network’s canonical cross-chain infra.https://t.co/HWB2ghJaI7
CCIP was selected by the Ronin validator community for its industry-leading… https://t.co/e7mPxMaCZO pic.twitter.com/LMXZlZzHu1

The current $LINK price is around $13-$14. In December, it closed in on $30, so an easy 2x from here. However, in a full-on bull run, $LINK should be able to do that 10x.
Walrus ($WAL)
Walrus ($WAL) is my last pick of today’s altcoins that can do a 10x. It’s a decentralized storage solution that should revolutionize this crypto sector. Mysten Labs is behind Walrus. That’s the same team that brought you the Sui Network, Deepbook, Slush Wallet, SuiPlay, and SNS. The latter is the Sui Name Service.
Walrus’ mainnet didn’t launch until late March this year. However, by now, it already boasts an impressive ecosystem. It covers sectors like Infra, AI, DeFi, Gaming, NFTs, DePIN, and much more. Since early this month, already 12.21% of its storage capacity is in use. That’s 500 TB in only a month and a half. See the picture below.

Part of this success is that Walrus offers better and cheaper options compared to existing projects. Another part is that Walrus keeps making new partnerships. In other words, more and more projects opt to store their data on Walrus. Here are some recent examples.
New Partnerships
- Tradeport, the successful NFT marketplace and launchpad. In contrast to IPFS storage options, Walrus offers more. For instance, it supports real-time, dynamic metadata. This offers faster mints, or you can easily update NFTs. Walrus also supports multichain support.
It’s official: TradePort’s integration with @WalrusProtocol is now LIVE on our Sui NFT launchpad!
This upgrade transforms how NFT metadata is stored and opens the door to next-gen use cases.
Let’s break it down.

- Pudgy Penguins now stores all their stickers and GIFs on Tusky. Now, as happens to be, Walrus powers Tusky.
- The LineFriends characters are now also on Walrus. With ROOM, Walrus powers a multichain Web3 game.
Tiny, talkative, and totally onchain.@_LINEFRIENDS’ beloved characters just got mininified

So, plenty of new partnerships keep coming in. The team is very active. Looking at the current $WAL price of 57 cents, $WAL holds up very well. The $WAL token dashed on the scene with an impressive airdrop. This shows strength, tho, $WAL holders tend to hodl their tokens.
So, which one of these three projects is your favorite? Do you hold any? Let me know in the comments. Make sure to join our lively discussion on Discord and X.
