Crypto progenitor Bitcoin’s historic move to an unprecedented price high of $122,838 last Monday reignited strong bullish sentiment among traders. Although the asset has since retreated by 5.7%, optimism remains high for another potential breakout.
The rapid ascent in Bitcoin’s value has simultaneously propelled major altcoins and many of the best meme coins upwards. Tokens such as XRP, TRON, Sui Network, Solana, Pepe, Trump, SPX6900, and FartCoin have all marked fresh all-time highs within the last year, reinforcing confidence in a broader market expansion.
Currently, the total crypto market cap hovers just below the $4 trillion mark. A slight market-wide correction of 5.3% over the past day indicates a stabilisation phase as prices consolidate after this powerful upswing.
With expectations of a significant bull run mounting, investors are turning their focus towards digital assets with the potential to surpass previous price peaks.
Ripple (XRP): Cross-Border Payments Crypto Leader Reaches New Price Records
Ripple’s XRP continues to cement itself as a key bridge between traditional finance systems and blockchain networks. On July 18, XRP climbed to a fresh record of $3.65, overtaking its former 2018 high of $3.40.
XRP trades around $3.11, marking a 14.3% decline from its peak, suggesting it is entering a correction period. Nonetheless, recent developments keep traders hopeful for renewed upward movement.
With its lightning-fast settlement times, negligible fees, and frictionless cross-border transacting sans intermediaries, XRP has attracted considerable institutional adoption, including from the United Nations.
Following four years of litigation, Ripple secured a major victory in 2023 when a U.S. court determined that XRP’s retail sales were not securities transactions. By 2025, the SEC closed its case, ending years of regulatory uncertainty and solidifying XRP’s market standing.
This clarity has driven substantial capital inflows into XRP, resulting in a price surge of over 413% in the last 365 days, far outpacing Bitcoin’s 81% increase over the year.
XRP’s RSI dipped to 60 from Monday’s overheated level of 86, indicating growing selling momentum. After a remarkable 44% rally over the past month – significantly outperforming Bitcoin’s 9% rise – traders are now realising their profits and will likely continue doing so over the weekend, depreciating the price and providing a buy-in opportunity.
Over the past 7 days, XRP declined by 10% and may continue easing until its RSI reaches a neutral 50 and its price aligns with its 30-day moving average. Further losses are likely to be minimal, since XRP enjoys strong psychological support near its previous resistance level at $3.
Between late last year and early April, XRP formed a bullish flag pattern, a structure often preceding strong upward moves, implying that a push towards $4 could materialise by autumn.
Pepe ($PEPE): The Biggest Frog in Crypto Eyes New Price Highs
In less than two years, Pepe ($PEPE) rose to become one of the top three meme coins, leveraging its cultural relevance to build substantial market dominance.
Inspired by Matt Furie’s iconic frog character, Pepe has delivered impressive returns to early holders, reaching a market cap over $5.1 billion.
Since its launch in April 2023, Pepe has inspired countless copycats, yet none have managed to match its momentum. The token’s profile skyrocketed further when X CEO Elon Musk briefly adopted a Pepe-themed avatar.
Currently trading around $0.00001221, Pepe has gained 23% in the past month. Despite this, it remains 56.4% below its late-2024 historic peak of $0.00002803. Earlier this year, Pepe charted a falling wedge formation, a technical setup often preceding upward breakouts.
With its RSI at 52 and downtrending, a selloff is ensuing which could discount the popular meme coin further over the weekend, presenting a prime opportunity for investors to buy in.
While crypto’s broader $3.9 trillion market dipped 5.3%, Pepe has held the fort with only a 2% decline, mirroring Bitcoin and reflecting the fact that larger market cap meme coins can often retain value more like traditional cryptocurrencies as the market grows.
Pepe enthusiasts remain hopeful that favourable crypto market conditions and geopolitical stability will ignite another surge before summer concludes.
Shiba Inu ($SHIB): Ethereum-Based Dogecoin Challenger Could Triple in Price
Since launching in August 2020, Shiba Inu ($SHIB) has become the second-largest meme cryptocurrency after Dogecoin, with a market cap stretching to nearly $8 billion.
SHIB has slipped 0.3% in the past 24 hours and is now trading near $0.00001347. Given the fact that crypto’s wider $79 billion meme coin market dipped 4.4% in the last 24 hours, Shiba Inu’s nominal decline highlights its robustness and resillience as a meme coin.
The token remains well-positioned for a potential major rally. Recent chart patterns highlight two bullish formations – a descending wedge from November to March and a bullish flag since mid-May – both of which imply continued upward momentum.
Should SHIB break past its key resistance at $0.000022 with ongoing market optimism, analysts expect it could rise above $0.00003 before the end of summer. Some forecasts suggest it might even reach between $0.00006 and $0.00009 by year-end if the industry enters a bull market.
Unlike most meme tokens, Shiba Inu offers real-world utility via Shibarium, its Ethereum-based Layer-2 network designed to reduce fees, enhance transaction speeds, and improve scalability and privacy.
