If you refer to someone or something as a sleeping giant, you mean that they are powerful but they have not yet shown the full extent of their power.

The meaning of sleeping giants that you attach to the 5 coins you have is only based on price or is there something else for example the technology?
Only ADA and DGB that I'm interest to have it.

Good point - I should have defined what I mean by "sleeping giant." I'll assume we all know what a "giant" means both colloquially and as a term of art. Let's focus on "sleeping," and I think you're right to question my underlying rationale for thinking these coins are sleeping giants. Here, I use the term "sleeping" as something that is either a) undervalued, b) overlooked, or c) likely to provide the right technology to the right people at right time. If price alone or even marketcap were all that mattered, THETA, DGB and MANA should not be on the list.The "sleeping" aspect of ADA is its technology and sophistication. For THETA, "sleeping" is based on the target audience and technology. For DGB, "sleeping" hits both a) and b), and seems imminently likely to hit c).

Also, just as a disclaimer, I'm not HODLing any DGB or MANA at present. The other Three equal 15% of my portfolio, and I'll likely HODL and accumulate more and more overtime.
