Once again, Bitcoin has shattered market expectations by hitting an unprecedented price peak of $122,838 last Monday, a record that has fuelled an increasingly bullish outlook among traders as the world-leading crypto prepares for another run up, just 2.8% down from its former all-time high (ATH).
Because of this, leading altcoins and some of the best meme coins – including XRP, TRON, Sui Network, Solana, Pepe, Trump, SPX6900, and FartCoin – have each surged to new historic highs, strengthening market optimism around their continued ascent.
However, crypto’s $4 trillion market now needs a cool down to consolidate its recent gains, that’s why crypto has collectively dipped 4.3% in the last 24 hours.
With speculation swirling about a looming major bull run, investors are honing in on digital assets they believe could surpass their historical highs.
Ripple (XRP): Dominating Cross-Border Crypto Payments While Setting Fresh Price Records
Ripple’s XRP has further entrenched itself as a vital link bridging traditional banking systems and blockchain-powered transactions. It just achieved its first ATH in seven years, surpassing its 2018 peak of $3.40 with a new record of $3.65 on July 18.
Currently trading at $3.51, XRP has since declined 3.6% although bulls are hoping to set another high.
Thanks to near-instant global transfers and minimal transaction costs, XRP has gained strong institutional support. Even the United Nations has acknowledged its capability to facilitate cross-border payments without the need for traditional banking intermediaries.
Following a lengthy legal dispute, Ripple secured a major win in 2023 when a U.S. court ruled that its retail token sales did not classify as securities transactions. By 2025, the SEC formally dismissed its case, ending years of legal uncertainty and cementing XRP’s regulatory position alongside major altcoins.
This legal resolution has sparked renewed investor confidence, propelling XRP to rise over 473.3% in the past year alone, far exceeding Bitcoin’s 76.5% growth during the same period.
Its RSI currently sits at a heated 83, having come down from a scorching 86 yesterday. This indicates an overbought condition. Many investors are taking profits following a striking 53% rally in just two weeks, again outperforming Bitcoin.
Overnight, the price has dipped 0.6%, potentially foretelling a correction. If a pullback occurs, XRP is expected to find solid support near its previous resistance zone around $3.30.
Earlier in 2025, a bullish flag pattern emerged – often preceding sharp upward moves – suggesting XRP could target the $4 mark by autumn.
Solana ($SOL): Could The Crypto Powering This Fast Blockchain Reach New Price Heights Before Fall?
Solana ($SOL) has carved a formidable reputation within decentralised finance due to its ultra-fast speeds, minimal transaction costs, and robust smart contract capabilities. Its market cap now stands at over $107 billion, with total value locked (TVL) on chain around $10.5 billion, according to DeFiLlama.
Speculation is intensifying about a potential spot ETF approval for Solana, similar to the approvals granted for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Such a development could attract significant institutional capital, cementing Solana’s position as a viable alternative to Ethereum.
Adding momentum to its narrative, U.S. President Donald Trump recently proposed including Solana in a potential U.S. Crypto Reserve, where the government would hold seized Solana assets acquired through enforcement actions.
On the price front, Solana has rebounded from its April low of $100 after reaching $250 in February and is currently trading at $200, up 8% in the last week. While its RSI indicates an overbought condition at 82, it enjoys solid support at current levels, allowing room for consolidation and another potential upward push.
Despite short-term geopolitical headwinds, this consolidation phase has strengthened Solana’s market base. Resistance remains around $200 and $250, and a decisive breakout could push SOL beyond its historical high of $293.31, potentially breaching the $300 mark by autumn.
Pepe ($PEPE): Meme Coin Giant Set for Fresh Highs
In just two years, Pepe ($PEPE) has skyrocketed into the top three meme coins, leveraging its cultural resonance and robust market performance to solidify its standing among the top three in its niche.
Inspired by Matt Furie’s iconic frog character, $PEPE has delivered massive returns to early adopters and now commands a market cap exceeding $5.8 billion.
Since its launch in April 2023, Pepe has inspired a wave of copycat tokens, none of which have matched its success. Its popularity soared further when X CEO and avid user Elon Musk briefly changed his profile photo to a Pepe-themed image.
Currently priced around $0.00001387, $PEPE has advanced 38% in the last 7 days and 53% over the past month, though it still trades about 50.44% below its late-2024 peak of $0.00002803. In Q1 this year, Pepe formed a falling wedge pattern, a technical formation often indicating an upcoming breakout.
With its RSI now at 68, bullish momentum remains strong, though it is approaching overbought territory at 70, where assets often face sell pressure.
However, with greater global political stability, Pepe could certainly be on track for another substantial rally before summer ends.
