Feeding Claude AI carefully structured prompts unlocks explosive price projections for XRP, Cardano, and Ethereum in 2026.
According to Claude, all three could hit fresh ATHs over the next eleven months.
Below we examine whether Claude’s claims are justified by technical signals and the news cycle.
XRP ($XRP): Claude Maps a Long-Term Route Toward $8 by 2027
In a recent blog post, Ripple confirmed XRP ($XRP) remains central to its vision to make the XRPLedger an institutional-grade payments infrastructure.
Already known for lightning fast settlement and negligible costs, XRPL also offers what could be the two biggest use cases in crypto: stablecoins and real world asset tokenization.
Currently trading near $1.43, Claude predicts XRP could climb to $8 by the end of 2026, a nearly 6x increase.
From a technical standpoint, XRP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is uptrending from 31, indicating that investors are buying back in after a period of heavy selling rocked the entire market.
Institutional inflows through newly approved U.S.-based XRP exchange-traded funds, combined with Ripple’s expanding partner network and the potential passage of the U.S. CLARITY bill this year, could even propel XRP beyond Claude’s bull case.
Cardano (ADA): Claude Projects a Potential 1,100% Upside
Created by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson, Cardano ($ADA) leverages peer-reviewed development, security, scalability, and sustainability.
With a market cap around $10 billion and more than $127 million in TVL Cardano’s growing ecosystem supports its long-term growth.
Claude says ADA could rise over 1,100%, from its current price of $0.26 to $3.25 by Christmas, pushing it comfortably above its 2021 ATH: $3.09.
That said, ADA is currently trading at its lowest level since October 2024. Given the year’s unpredictability so far, another downturn could see ADA slipping the $0.20 to $0.25 support level.
Ethereum ($ETH): Claude Identifies a Possible 5x Setup
Ethereum ($ETH), the world’s leading smart contract platform, underpins most of the DeFi/Web3 infrastructure.
With a market capitalization of around $243 billion and more than $56 billion locked across DeFi protocols, Ethereum remains the primary settlement layer for blockchain commerce.
Its proven security, dominant position in stablecoins, and early leadership in real-world asset tokenization position Ethereum well to capture increased institutional demand.
However, substantial inflows depend on whether U.S. lawmakers approve the CLARITY bill, which will provide the regulatory certainty institutions need to deploy capital on the network, either through stablecoins or tokenized real-world assets.
ETH trades around $2,000, with heavy resistance expected near the $5,000 level after reaching an ATH of $4,946.05 last August.
If Claude’s bullish outlook materializes, a clean breakout above $5,000 could pave the way for multiple new ATHs in 2026, with Claude capping ETH’s growth at a heady $7,500 in a full-scale bull market.
Maxi Doge: Roll Over, Dogecoin! Maxi’s The New Alpha of Memesville!
Finally, while Claude sees XRP, Cardano and Ethereum as relatively safe bets, investors chasing old school crypto upside will want to allocate a small portion of their portfolio to new high-volatility meme coins.
Maxi Doge ($MAXI) is one of the most discussed meme coin presales of 2026 so far, raising $4.6 million before launch.
The project’s mascot is an louche, high-energy parody (and distant cousin) of Dogecoin, blending gym-bro intensity with degen humor to revive the irreverent meme culture that shot Dogecoin and Shiba Inu to stardom.
MAXI is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum’s proof-of-stake network, giving it a smaller environmental footprint compared to Dogecoin’s proof-of-work model.
Presale participants can currently stake MAXI tokens to earn yields of up to 68% APY, with rewards decreasing over time as the staking pool grows.
The token is $0.0002803 in the current presale stage, with automatic price increases triggered at each funding milestone. Purchases are supported via MetaMask and Best Wallet.
Say goodbye to Dogecoin. Maxi Doge is the new alpha in Memesville!
