Only 12% of 2025 Token Sales Are Still Profitable

In 2025, 533 public token sales took place. Some managed to raise millions in seconds, but only 63 tokens are still trading above their sale price.

The biggest sale, PUMP, raised $600M. It delivered 2.19x at ATH, but now trades below the IDO price, with ROI around 0.48x.

Even though PUMP led the narrative and captured massive attention, the retroactive EV looks weak. The same applies to MON (current ROI 0.93x) and XPL (0.47x).

However, 58% of sales still delivered a solid 3–6x pop on decent size allocations right at the start of trading, but not in the long term.

The most profitable sale for investors in 2025 was MYX, with ATH ROI at 2103x, and it is still trading around 385x above the sale price today.

Overall, weak market conditions and shrinking attention spans turned token-sale investing into hard mode this year, pushing participants toward shorter holding periods and faster profit-taking.
