The price of crypto may be on the verge of a major move again, with Bitcoin ($BTC) climbing as high as $110,386 in the last 24 hours as it attempts to challenge its recently-posted all-time high ($111,814) and break the stagnation it faced amid recent geopolitical upheavals.
Additionally, a number of leading altcoins and some of the best meme coins—including TRON, Sui Network, Solana, Pepe, Trump, SPX6900, and FartCoin—have reached unprecedented price levels in recent months, suggesting that an altcoin breakout may be on the horizon.
As markets brace for what many anticipate will be the next bullish surge, investor focus is narrowing toward select altcoins with the potential to chart new price milestones.
Ripple (XRP): Will This Cross-Border Payments Giant Set Fresh Crypto Price Records in 2025?
Ripple’s XRP continues to carve out a reputation as a key bridge connecting legacy banking systems with blockchain-based payments.
Its fast transaction speeds and minimal fees have attracted institutional attention, including endorsements from the United Nations as a compliant solution for facilitating global payments without intermediaries.
In addition, XRP was at the center of a lengthy legal dispute with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). A pivotal 2023 ruling determined that XRP’s retail sales were not securities transactions, and by 2025, the SEC formally dropped its lawsuit, concluding a four-year legal battle.
This resolution strengthened XRP’s market standing and set an important regulatory precedent benefiting the broader crypto sector. Investor sentiment has since improved dramatically, with XRP outperforming Bitcoin over the past year, gaining 400% compared to BTC’s 89.5% increase.
From a technical standpoint, analysts identified a bullish flag pattern during Q1, indicating a potential rally towards $3.50 this summer, eclipsing its former peak of $3.40 in January 2018.
Shiba Inu ($SHIB): Could Ethereum’s Meme Crypto Heavyweight Triple in Price?
Since debuting in August 2020, Shiba Inu ($SHIB) has ascended to become the second-largest meme token after Dogecoin, with a market valuation surpassing $6.8 billion.
Over the past 24 hours, SHIB has slipped 3% and currently trades around $0.00001156. While it’s not the smallest dip, Shiba Inu retained value better than the average cryptocurrency as the crypto collective market cap fell 3.7%.
However, Shiba Inu is in a strong position to chart a course to the moon. Its recent chart patterns feature two prominent bullish formations: a descending wedge spanning November to March and a bullish flag since mid-May, both suggesting possible upward momentum.
If SHIB breaks through its primary resistance at $0.000022 and maintains positive market sentiment, analysts project a climb above $0.00003 by late summer. Some estimates forecast potential gains reaching the $0.00006 to $0.00009 range by year-end if current trends persist.
Unlike most meme tokens, SHIB offers real-world utility through its integration with the Ethereum-based Shibarium Layer-2 network, designed to reduce transaction fees, enhance processing speeds, and improve scalability and privacy.
Pepe ($PEPE): The Meme Coin Frog Eyes New Highs
Pepe ($PEPE) has solidified its status as a dominant meme token, helped along by its viral cultural appeal and aggressive market trajectory.
Inspired by Matt Furie’s iconic frog cartoon, $PEPE delivered extraordinary returns for its earliest adopters and now ranks among the top three meme coins, boasting a market cap of $4 billion.

Since its April 2023 launch, the token has sparked a proliferation of imitators, though none have matched its viral momentum or market resilience. Even Elon Musk briefly used a Pepe-themed profile image on X (formerly Twitter), fueling its popularity further.
Currently, $PEPE trades near $0.000009683 after rising 6% in price over the last seven days, outpacing gains by crypto titans like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Bitcoin, and Ethereum over the same period.
At present, $PEPE is roughly 65.4% below its all-time high of $0.00002803 set in late 2024. Nevertheless, analysts are monitoring a falling wedge formation that emerged in Q1, a classic indicator of potential sharp upward reversals.
Meanwhile, its Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dipped to 45, and if further selling drives it below 30 into oversold territory over the weekend, traders may seize the opportunity, placing upward pressure on its price.
Should global geopolitical and economic conditions continue to stabilize, Pepe could be poised for another rally before summer draws to a close.
