Best Long-Term Crypto Picks for the 2025 Bull Market

In a market full of noise, value investors are asking one critical question: what should I hold long-term?
Here are some of our top picks, based on fundamentals, traction, and longevity.
1. Grass – AI + Revenue
Grass stands out in the AI space. With over $15M in revenue from its browser extension and data resale model, it’s one of the few protocols generating real-world value. It’s a top AI blue chip we’re confident holding over multiple cycles.
2. Peaq – DePIN Infrastructure
Peaq positions itself as the Chainlink of decentralized physical infrastructure. While still under $1B FDV, it’s been consistent in development and narrative strength.
3. Sui – Consumer-Focused L1
Sui isn’t just another L1. Between Phantom wallet support, SuiPlay hardware, and growing dApp adoption, Sui has the elements to outpace older chains like Solana or Avalanche in user growth.
4. Parcl – Real Estate Derivatives
For exposure to real-world assets, Parcl offers a compelling play. Their UI is retail-friendly, listings are strong, and the market cap remains under $150M. This is one to watch as RWA adoption grows.
5. BitTensor – AI Infrastructure Layer
With a unique emission model and growing subnet usage, BitTensor remains the top AI infra token. Some even compare its long-term potential to early Bitcoin.
Bonus Mentions:
- Uniswap / Aave / Compound – battle-tested DeFi with upcoming fee-sharing upgrades
- Chainlink – oracle king still dominating infrastructure
- Hyperliquid – sustainable revenue, EVM chain, and perps dominance
Final Words
The 2025 bull market will create noise—but also opportunity. These tokens aren’t just trendy—they’re infrastructure plays with real utility and upside. Allocate accordingly.

Inside the Dashboard: How to Monitor API Key Activity and Monthly Usage in Real Time
The power of any great API isn’t just in the data it provides — it’s also in the control, visibility, and accountability it gives developers. That’s why the Token Metrics API Dashboard is more than just a place to generate keys — it’s your real-time command center for monitoring API key usage, managing access, and optimizing performance.
In this article, we’ll explore how to use the Token Metrics API Dashboard to stay in control of your app’s data usage, track request history, and ensure your integrations remain secure and efficient.
📍 Where to Find It
To access the dashboard:
- Log in to your Token Metrics account.
- Go to: https://app.tokenmetrics.com/en/api
- Navigate to the API Keys and API Usage sections.
🔐 View and Manage API Keys
The API Keys section gives you a complete overview of every active key associated with your account. For each key, you’ll see:
- Key Name: Descriptive labels like "Bot A" or "Staging Server"
- Created Date: When the key was generated
- Last Used: Timestamp of the most recent request
- Status: Active or inactive toggle
- Actions: Trash icon to instantly delete a key
💡 Why It Matters:
- Spot unused or stale keys that may pose a security risk
- Instantly disable or delete a key if it’s compromised
- Monitor which app or environment is making the most requests
📊 Monitor API Usage in Real-Time
In the Usage Dashboard, Token Metrics gives you deep insights into how your API credits are being used.
Key metrics include:
- API Calls Graph
A daily call volume chart so you can identify peaks in usage, anomalies, or unexpected surges. - Total Monthly API Calls
Example:
8,750 / 20,000
See how much of your monthly quota you’ve used — and when it resets. - Remaining API Credits
Know exactly how many calls you have left in your current cycle. - API Call Statistics Table
Each row includes:
- Endpoint accessed (e.g., /trader-grade)
- Timestamp of the request
- Status code (200 = success, 401 = unauthorized, etc.)
- Originating IP address
- Success/failure response
- Endpoint accessed (e.g., /trader-grade)
🔄 Debugging & Insights Made Easy
This dashboard doesn’t just monitor—it helps you debug and optimize.
- Quickly identify if your integration is repeatedly hitting 400 or 403 errors
- Check whether a specific key is being overused or underused
- Pinpoint spikes in usage that may indicate unauthorized access
- See which endpoints are called most often — and consider caching results
⚠️ Avoid Rate Limit Surprises
If you’re on a Basic or Advanced plan, you’ll have a rate limit (e.g., 1 req/min for free users, up to 600 req/min for VIPs). The dashboard helps ensure you stay within your limits — and scale appropriately when needed.
🚀 Build Better with Transparency
In a production environment, visibility into API activity is critical. With Token Metrics, you’re never flying blind. You always know:
- Which app is using which key
- How many credits you’re using
- When to optimize or upgrade
From security to scaling, the Token Metrics API Dashboard gives you the insight you need to build with clarity and control.

Is the Crypto Market Bullish or Bearish? Why 2025 Is the Year of Neutral Momentum
The crypto market isn't clearly bullish or bearish in mid-2025 — it's neutral. This article explores why this 'in-between' momentum could signal a maturing market cycle, and what investors should watch for as signals normalize after a sharp $1T rebound in total market cap.
As we navigate through the midpoint of 2025, one question dominates trading desks and Telegram groups alike: Is the crypto market bullish or bearish? Surprisingly, the answer might be neither. Current indicators suggest that we are in a neutral zone — an ambiguous space where the market is no longer surging with euphoric gains but isn’t plunging into panic either.
From January through mid-May, the total crypto market cap has grown from $1 trillion to $2 trillion. This swift rebound signals recovery, but not full-blown optimism. Instead, many analysts — ourselves included — interpret this as a healthy correction and stabilization following intense early-year volatility.
This kind of environment often marks the early stages of a maturing cycle. Unlike the sharp swings we saw in previous bull and bear markets, 2025’s trend suggests more measured growth, driven by fundamentals rather than hype. In other words, the market might finally be learning from its past.
That doesn’t mean the space lacks activity. Sectors like DeFi lending and AI-related tokens continue to gain traction, with significant TVL inflows. Retail interest in meme coins also remains high in select regions. But overall, what we’re seeing is consolidation — not chaos.
In this neutral setting, strategy matters more than sentiment. It's no longer about jumping into trending narratives or panic-selling on dips. Instead, identifying projects with real use cases, sustainable economics, and strong communities has become the foundation of long-term success.
For traders and builders alike, the current landscape offers both challenges and opportunities. Risk-adjusted returns are key, and disciplined portfolio rebalancing could be one of the most underrated strategies right now.
As we continue monitoring market signals, we remain committed to surfacing actionable insights backed by real-time data, not just narratives. Whether the next breakout is weeks or months away, staying informed — and unemotional — may prove to be your best edge.
How Token Metrics Helps in a Neutral Market Environment:
In times of neutral momentum, making profitable crypto decisions becomes more complex — and that's where Token Metrics shines:
- Actionable AI Signals:
Token Metrics scans thousands of tokens daily, using over 80 data points to identify bullish and bearish trends even when market sentiment is flat. This helps users cut through noise and act on real opportunities.
- Investor & Trader Grades:
When hype fades, fundamentals matter. Our proprietary grades evaluate both short-term momentum and long-term viability, helping users discover tokens with staying power — not just temporary pumps.
- Smart Rebalancing Alerts:
In a consolidating market, maintaining the right portfolio mix is crucial. Token Metrics' indices and alerts help users rebalance regularly to lock in gains and minimize downside risks.
- Sector-Based Insights:
With DeFi, AI, and meme coins behaving differently, Token Metrics allows users to dive deep into sector-specific analytics — so you can position ahead of capital flows.
- Sentiment & Volume Monitoring:
Our platform tracks shifts in on-chain activity, social sentiment, and volume trends to spot early signs of market reversals — especially useful when traditional signals stall.
In a market where being early beats being emotional, Token Metrics equips you with the clarity and tools to trade with confidence.
