We’ve just started 2022 and it’s time to look ahead to the new year. So, which crypto currencies are going to explode in 2022?

To answer this question, Coinaute has prepared a top 10 cryptos to follow in 2022!

To make it, we have chosen the crypto-currencies that we think are underpriced and will outperform the market this year. We tried to vary the fun by selecting popular, but also almost unknown projects.

In terms of price, we tried to diversify this top 10 and that’s why half of the cryptos have a price below $1.

Keep in mind that this top 10 is not an investment advice, but the opinion of Coinaute. It is also important to note that the prices expressed in the article are those as of the day the article was published.

10 – Solana

We start this top 10 with a well-known cryptocurrency, SOL. Ranked 5th just behind BNB on CoinMarketCap, SOL literally exploded in 2021 and we don’t think it will stop in 2022.

Solana is the fastest decentralized blockchain in the world. It now has over 400 projects covering DeFi, NFT, Web3 and more.

It is particularly thanks to NFT that its use has been democratized and the price has soared, achieving a performance of almost 9,500% in 2021. It is unlikely that SOL will perform similarly, but as it is now well established in the cryptosphere, its use and price should continue to rise.

Currently around $140, it is plausible that it will go for its $260 ATH. This would give it a nice performance of +85%.

9 – Polkadot

We continue this top 10 with another well-known cryptocurrency that is ranked 10th on CoinMarketCap.

Polkadot enables the connection of private, consortium blockchains and public networks. It therefore facilitates the creation and connection of decentralized applications, services and institutions.

As you may have guessed, its scope is so wide that its potential growth is enormous. That’s why we think that by 2022, DOT could become even more important in the cryptosphere.

It’s hovering around the $25 mark, but it’s capable of regaining and even surpassing its $55 ATH to show performance of over 120%.

8 – Ecomi

OMI is far less well known than the previous two cryptocurrencies, and for good reason, it sits above the 200th position.

OMI is the cryptocurrency of the Singapore-based company ECOMI. The project aims to democratize NFTs via the VeVe Collectibles app. To find out what an NFT is, click here and check out our full guide.

The project is very ambitious, as it wants to create the first platform in the world to buy, exchange and keep NFTs. It relies on prestigious partnerships with Marvel, Disney or Givenchy. To learn more about the project, discover our article by clicking here!

At the moment, OMI is around $0.005, far from its ATH at $0.013. If the project progresses well and the NFTs continue to progress, the OMI could return to touch its ATH and achieve a minimum 150% increase.

7 – Oasis Network

Oasis Network is a decentralized proof-of-stake based blockchain network designed to work as a platform. Oasis is a base-layer blockchain, like Ethereum or Bitcoin, but it’s built from the ground up, with data privacy and speed up to 1,000 transactions per second.

What you need to remember is that Oasis Network and its ROSE crypto are very promising. Ranked in the top 100, 80th precisely, its price is very close to its ATH ($0.36/$0.44) but we don’t think that will stop it from performing or even outperforming the market in 2022.

6 – Chainlink

Chainlink is a decentralized blockchain oracle network built on Ethereum. The network is intended to be used to facilitate the transfer of unforgeable data from off-blockchain sources to smart contracts in the blockchain.

Chainlink can be used to verify whether the parameters of a smart contract are met in a way that is independent of any of the parties involved in the contract.

As you can see, the scope of Chainlink is very wide, and can be used in Defi, for companies, insurance, NFTs, gaming, etc.

The LINK is Chainlink’s token, it allows to pay node operators for the recovery of smart contracts data as well as for the deposits placed by node operators. In short, the LINK is essential to the network’s functioning and the more Chainlink is used, the more the token’s value should increase.

Like the DOT, it is currently around $25 and has an ATH around $50. It is not unrealistic to expect at least 100% performance.

5 – Poken

We’re halfway through the rankings and it’s time to introduce you to some much lesser known projects like Pokmi. The PKN, Poken, is ranked very far by CoinMarcketCap, around the 3800th position.

Pokmi and its cryptocurrency PKN is a French project that is a bit special since it concerns the porn industry. Indeed, Pokmi’s goal is to offer a marketplace of NFTs with adult content, the NFPs.

The project is well advanced because the marketplace is accessible and the project has many personalities of the porn world in its ranks. But the cryptocurrency in all this? Well, the PKN is used to pay the NFTs. Thus, the more the marketplace is used the more the token becomes valuable.

At the start of 2022, PKN is valued at $0.05 but has seen a rather short-lived ATH of $0.25. With the pornography and sex market growing, 2022 is likely to be a rosy year for PKN.

4 – Chiliz

This is the token that misses the podium and yet the project is very promising. Chiliz is the project of sports in the cryptosphere!

Chiliz has developed a sports fan engagement platform Socios.com which is built on the Chiliz blockchain and uses the CHZ as an exclusive token on the platform.

In a nutshell, the CHZ token represents the Chiliz project which aims to allow clubs to monetize their audience. Supporters buy tokens from their club to gain decision-making power via the Socios.com application.

For the moment their action is limited, but it will increase in the future. As a proof of the seriousness of the project, Chiliz now has more than 100 teams in its ranks.

Chiliz is present in soccer with PSG or FC Barcelona, national teams, but also in Formula 1, Esport, MMA, basketball, tennis, etc.

The possibilities and the market are huge. That’s why we think the project can be very bullish in 2022. Currently at around $0.30, it could reach the symbolic $1 mark, thus achieving a performance of almost 250%.

3 – Pundi x

We are entering the podium! Pundi x is a project wishing to democratize the use of cryptocurrencies and mainly during payment. Via a smart contract device, Pundi x allows thousands of stores, cafes and convenience stores to buy, sell and accept cryptocurrencies as payment.

The project is ambitious as it wants to create the largest offline cryptocurrency sales network in the world.

Regarding the cryptocurrency, the token changed its name this year from NPXS to PUNDIX. In addition, it has been listed on Binance, FTX, Huobi, Kucoin and others.

Another sign that the project is progressing well is that the payment device is starting to be deployed in many countries like Japan, Germany and Brazil.

Currently the price is below $1 and has never been this low. When it was listed on Binance it reached an ATH of $9.7 before collapsing. To recover, the token would have to perform over 900%, although this seems unlikely, we can expect a nice rise for 2022.

2 – VeChain

Launched in 2015, VeChain Technology aims to connect blockchain technology to the real world. It provides businesses with blockchain-enabled solutions tailored to their business needs.

The great advantage of VeChain is that it offers solutions to all business sectors, from agriculture to automobile industry to logistics.

VeChain Technology has offices all over the world with international offices in China, France, USA, etc. VeChain has also established partnerships with many multinational companies such as Walmart China, Bayer China, BMW Group, LVMH…

The ETV hovers around $0.08. However, its market capitalization is significant which allows it to be ranked 32nd in CoinMarketCap.

With the increasing adoption of blockchain by businesses it is likely that the price of VET will rise. To regain its ATH, VET would have to realize an increase of almost 240%.

1 – Ternoa

Finally, here is our number 1 choice, Ternoa and its cryptocurrency CAPS. This is a French project that aims to use blockchain in a concrete way.

Ternoa proposes a revolutionary use of the blockchain with the sending of time capsules. According to us, Ternoa and its CAPS cryptocurrency should explode in 2022 thanks to the various advances that will make the project a reality and launch it. To learn more, check out our article by clicking here!

Currently CAPS is ranked 641st on CoinMarketCap and like VET it is around $0.08. With the various progresses of the project, it would not be surprising if CAPS reaches at least its ATH in 2022, which would represent an increase of about 145%.

Special mention

Finally, we would like to add a special mention about a project that has no cryptocurrency, but is expected to make a lot of noise in 2022: Recur.

It is a project of NFT marketplace in connection with the metaverse created by important personalities. The project is still at the beginning, but it seems very promising so follow it…
