BlockDAG Investigation — Archive of Delays, Promises & Missing Deliverables
This site collects verified statements, broken launch dates, and investor feedback related to the BDAG presale. Over $371M raised. No blockchain. No exchange listings. No product.
BDAG Timeline — Missed Launches & Marketing Promises
In early January, BlockDAG promised a major launch on 10 CEX exchanges. They used urgency to push purchases, saying time was running out to triple BDAG value.
🛑 Status: No exchanges listed. No actual launch occurred.
🛑 Status: No exchanges listed. No actual launch occurred.
They introduced "Listing1000" for a 350% bonus, promised new team members, and again teased 10 CEX listings. All communication focused on bonuses and countdowns.
🛑 Status: No exchange listings. Listing1000 expired, replaced by new campaigns.
🛑 Status: No exchange listings. Listing1000 expired, replaced by new campaigns.
BlockDAG made a bold claim that exchange listings were finally confirmed, promising an upcoming announcement on May 13. They added urgency by declaring the presale would close soon and encouraged last-minute purchases. Key points included:
🛑 Status: No exchanges listed. Audit not published. Another promotional cycle began in May.
- ✅ “Exchange Launch Confirmed”
- ✅ BDAG price “locked” at $0.0019
- ✅ Certik Audit “coming next week”
- ✅ New podcast launched
🛑 Status: No exchanges listed. Audit not published. Another promotional cycle began in May.
In early May, BlockDAG claimed the Certik audit was live and announced a long-awaited exchange listing event on May 13. This announcement was accompanied by aggressive marketing:
🛑 Status:
Despite explicit promises of listings on May 13, no exchanges were listed. Certik audit remains unverifiable, and by mid-May the narrative was already redirected to June.
- 🎯 Price freeze at $0.0019 until May 13
- 💸 Referral rewards: 25% + 5%
- 🎁 Daily Buyer Battle contests
- 🛡 Certik audit “live” — but no public access
- 📈 BDAG “will be live on top-tier exchanges” on May 13
🛑 Status:
Despite explicit promises of listings on May 13, no exchanges were listed. Certik audit remains unverifiable, and by mid-May the narrative was already redirected to June.
In June, BlockDAG hyped up a major milestone — the "GO LIVE" Reveal. On June 6, they promised to unveil listings on 20 exchanges by June 13 and teased a mysterious NBA sponsorship. The community was told it was a final countdown, with new users, major capital raised, and a full reveal incoming.
On June 13, instead of showing listings, BlockDAG simply repeated the listing claim, showcased internal metrics (user growth, miner rigs), and dropped another promotional video — but still no actual exchange listings were shown or verified.
🛑 Status: As of the June reveal — no confirmed trading activity, no public exchange listings. Just another presale milestone repackaged.

On July 1st, BlockDAG announced the end of its presale phase, promoting a “Global Launch” set for August 11. Once again, they dangled the carrot of a major event — this time with exchange logos (MEXC, LBANK, CoinStore, XT.com) and the message:
“This is it. The last chance to buy before everything levels up.”
The final presale price was fixed at $0.0016, and buyers were urged to act quickly. However, just like in previous months, no real listing occurred at this time, and the so-called “global launch” remains ambiguous.
🛑 Status: As of July’s announcement, still no verified listings or exchange confirmations. The new target date is August 11 — pushing the goalpost further down the line once again.

Despite promoting August 11 as the official Global Launch in July, BlockDAG remained silent on the promised date, delivering no announcements, no exchange listings, and no product launch.
Then, on August 12, they posted a vague marketing tweet, shifting focus again — now promising listings on Coinbase, Gemini, and Crypto.com without any evidence or confirmations. They claimed:
“If we pull this off, it’s not just adoption… it’s MASS ADOPTION.”
No clear roadmap, no exchange names confirmed, just more empty phrases like:
“The next time you see BDAG, it could be on the biggest stages in crypto.”

🛑 Status:
- No Global Launch occurred on August 11.
- No exchanges confirmed or verified.
- Target exchanges now upgraded to top-tier U.S. platforms — without proof.
- Presale still ongoing at $0.0016 — despite 8 months of promises.
BlockDAG frequently boasts about major sports partnerships, including with Inter Milan, the Seattle Orcas, Seattle Seawolves, and even an unnamed NBA team. These claims are amplified across their social media and website, but lack consistent or independent verification:
- 🏉 Seattle Seawolves and 🏏 Seattle Orcas are featured as partners on BlockDAG’s own website — yet no reciprocal confirmation is found on the teams’ official platforms.
- 🏀 NBA Sponsorship has been teased multiple times, with dramatic visuals and promises — but no evidence of any official partnership ever surfaced.
- ⚽ Inter Milan is shown as an “official blockchain partner” on BlockDAG’s site, yet Inter Milan’s own channels never mention the collaboration.
- 🥋 Alex Pereira, a top UFC fighter, is claimed to be BlockDAG’s ambassador — again, with no signs of independent acknowledgement.
Token Model & Red Flags
🧮 Tokenomics & Manipulation
BlockDAG’s tokenomics and pricing model raise major red flags.
🔸 Total Supply: 150 Billion BDAG
🧩 What's suspicious?
Only 1% allocated to the team seems unusually low and unrealistic for a startup. This could be a tactic to hide team-controlled allocations under vague categories like "Community" or "Ecosystem." There's no transparency around vesting, locks, or smart contracts.
🚨 Fake Price Growth IllusionBlockDAG promotes a mining calculator that simulates huge profits based on staged price increases:
❌ No Exchange ListingsBlockDAG claims upcoming listings on Coinbase, Binance, Crypto.com, and Gemini — yet none of these platforms mention BDAG. It's pure speculation and misleading marketing. Buyers cannot sell their tokens anywhere.
⚠️ Summary:BlockDAG’s tokenomics and fake price simulator are designed to create FOMO and give investors a false sense of growth. With no real liquidity, no exchange support, and no verifiable utility — the entire economic model appears engineered for deception.
