Is original crypto Bitcoin gearing up for a major price rally? Three weeks ago today it posted a new all-time high of $122,838—a move that reignited bullish momentum among traders. Although it has since dipped by approximately 6.9%, market sentiment remains strongly positive, with many analysts forecasting another breakout, as BTC continues to hover near its peak price territory.
This impressive upswing has also invigorated a range of major altcoins and some of the very best meme coins. Over the last 12 months, cryptocurrencies like XRP, TRON, Solana, Sui Network, Pepe, Trump, SPX6900, and FartCoin have recorded fresh all-time highs—demonstrating strong investor confidence in the market’s broader uptrend.
There are also sign that the US government is going to make good on its word to regulate crypto. At the end of last week, the SEC announced “Project Crypto“, a series of initiatives to update American securities laws to hopefully give the industry the clarity it has long called for.
As anticipation builds for a prolonged bull run, attention is increasingly shifting toward digital assets that may be poised to surpass their previous records.
Ripple (XRP): Cross-Border Payment Crypto Experiences Impressive Price Movement in 2025
Ripple’s XRP reached a new pinnacle on July 18, hitting $3.65, surpassing its previous 2018 high of $3.40. Although it’s now trading at about $2.99, this represents a 17.7% retreat from its ATH and includes a sprightly 5% gain in the last 24 hours, indicating a healthy phase of recovery.
Thanks to its rapid transaction speeds, negligible fees, and efficient global remittance capabilities without intermediaries, XRP has become a preferred option for institutional use. It has even garnered support from entities like the United Nations, bolstering its legitimacy.
A pivotal moment came in 2023 when a U.S. court ruled that XRP’s retail sales did not qualify as securities, clearing the regulatory fog and paving the way for renewed investor confidence by 2025.
XRP has risen by over 449% in the last 365 days, greatly outperforming Bitcoin’s 88% gain during the same timeframe.
Technically, momentum could be picking back up as XRP’s relative strength index (RSI) is uptrending at 56, indicating more buying momentum than selling. This could indicate that bulls are angling to go a leg higher, following a 35% surge in the last 30 days compared to meagre BTC’s 6% gain.
XRP diverged drastically from its 30-day moving average over the month of July as a result of heavy bull activity. The two lines have now converged and any downside risk seems contained, with firm support located just south of the previous resistance level of $3.
A bullish flag pattern that formed between late 2024 and April 2025 could be pointing toward a possible push to $4 in the coming months.
Shiba Inu ($SHIB): Dogecoin Rival With Crypto Utility Targets Potential 3X to 9X Price Surge
Launched in August 2020, Shiba Inu ($SHIB) has cemented its position as the second-largest meme coin, boasting a market capitalization above $7.2 billion.
SHIB has risen slightly overnight, adding 0.4% in the last 24 hours as the rest of the market, echoing a 0.9% rise across the crypto market, which now holds a combined value of $3.8 trillion. The token is currently trading near $0.00001225.
Technical chart patterns suggest further upside may be ahead. Over the past year, SHIB has displayed two strong bullish indicators: a descending wedge from November to March, and a bullish flag developing since mid-May.
If SHIB can break through its main resistance at $0.000022 amid broader market optimism, analysts believe it could rally toward $0.00003 before summer concludes. In a full-scale bull environment, estimates project a price range of $0.00006 to $0.00009 by year-end.
Unlike most meme tokens, SHIB offers real-world utility via Shibarium, its Layer-2 solution built on Ethereum that enhances scalability, lowers fees, and improves transaction speed.
Pepe ($PEPE) launched in April 2023 and quickly ascended into the top three meme coins by market cap, powered by the cultural appeal of the internet-famous frog from Matt Furie’s artwork.
Its remarkable ascent has inspired numerous imitators, though none have matched its momentum. With a market cap of around $4.4 billion and even a brief cameo as Elon Musk’s profile picture on X, PEPE has solidified itself as a prominent meme asset.
Currently priced around $0.00001045, it has gained 7% in the last 30 days but remains 63% below its late-2024 all-time high of $0.00002803. A falling wedge pattern suggests a bullish reversal could be forming.
The RSI has cooled to 38, hinting that recent selling pressure may be easing as the asset descends towards the oversold level of 30. This could set the stage for a rapid rebound by the weekend, providing a compelling buy-in level for bullish investors.
Overall, the meme coin sector’s total crypto market cap has risen 5.6% overnight to stand at $70.8 billion, and although Pepe remains virtually unchanged in the last 24 hours, a sustained meme coin rebound will drive bulls to take up Pepe positions.
With favorable macroeconomic indicators and potential for renewed market momentum, Pepe supporters are eyeing a potential late-summer price surge.
