Today's popular crypto assets price prediction: XRP, PUMP, and ADA show signs of renewed activity, with strong upward potential expectations increasing.

As Bitcoin (BTC) continues to challenge and break through its historical high of $123,000, Ripple (XRP), PumpFun (PUMP), and Cardano (ADA) are showing signs of renewed activity, with bullish sentiment enhancing expectations for a strong pump potential in these alts.

As confidence in the next bull market continues to grow, investors are focusing on selected alts that may surpass historical cryptocurrency price records.

Ripple: A mainstream remittance cryptocurrency with a promising price outlook

Ripple's XRP is still at the forefront of connecting traditional financial networks and blockchain remittance systems.

This week, blockchain coins continue to pump, rising 33% in the past 7 days and 10% in the past 24 hours, with a trading price of $3.26 at the time of writing.

XRP offers near-instant cross-border transfers at extremely low costs, continuously attracting the interest of institutional investors, and has even received recognition from the United Nations for its ability to facilitate global transactions without the need for intermediaries.

After years of legal disputes with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Ripple achieved a significant victory in 2023 when the court ruled that its XRP retail sales do not constitute securities trading. In 2025, the SEC officially closed the case, ending a four-year lawsuit.

This legal closure solidified the regulatory status of XRP and set an important precedent for the entire alts industry. Investor confidence has greatly increased, and the price of XRP has pumped by 431% within a year, far exceeding the 80% pump of Bitcoin during the same period.

XRP is currently in an oversold state, with a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 86. Although a decline has occurred, the previous resistance level of $3 may now turn into a strong psychological support level, allowing it to consolidate its recent gains and target $4, a goal that could even be achieved before the end of the month.

Earlier this year, technical analysis showed the formation of a bullish flag, indicating that XRP long positions are currently chasing a new all-time high (ATH) to replace the high of $3.40 set in January 2018.

PumpFun: New cryptocurrency launch from the Solana meme coin factory, but progress is not smooth

The PumpFun protocol will go live on Solana on January 19, 2024. It is a cryptocurrency launch platform, which means that anyone who is willing can mint and issue cryptocurrencies (usually meme coins), and it provides a fair launch opportunity for each project, meaning that everyone can buy and sell the token at the time of its initial creation.

On July 12 this year, this veritable meme coin issuing factory launched the native token PUMP, securing $1 billion in investments within 12 minutes.

The team minted 1 trillion PUMP tokens (accounting for 33% of the total supply), with a unit price of $0.004. Of this, 15% was sold to retail investors during the ICO period, and 18% was sold to institutional investors. Thus, the team raised $600 million during the ICO period, and the participation of institutional investors brought the total funding amount to over $1 billion.

Although it is still too early to determine the trend formation, the chart shows that the Bitcoin price suddenly surged and then plummeted. Yesterday, the price once reached a historical high of 0.006812 USD, before dropping by 21.4%. Of this, the decline in the past 24 hours accounted for 15%, and the current trading price of the token is 0.005352 USD, which is only up 4.5% from the historical low of 0.005126 USD.

Given that the token's presale price is $0.004 and the outlook is not good, this is why the team initiated a buyback to stabilize the price.

This release may have some fluctuations, but PumpFun is a mature protocol, and its team is well-versed in its principles. Given that meme coins on Solana occupy $15 billion in a $79 billion meme coin market, there is no doubt that as the project establishes its foothold in the market, its demand will increase.

Cardano: Will the sustainable Ethereum challenger reach new highs?

Driven by increasing institutional support and strong technical indicators, interest in ADA continues to rise. Recently, President Donald Trump noted that Cardano, XRP, and Solana are expected to be included in the proposed U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve.

Cardano was founded in 2014 by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson, known for its research-driven approach and energy-efficient proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus, which later influenced Ethereum's own migration from proof-of-work.

The current market value of ADA is 9 billion USD, and it needs to more than double its market share to surpass Solana and challenge Ethereum's dominance.

Forecasts indicate that by mid-year, ADA could appreciate from the current $0.81 to nearly $2, with the most optimistic prediction being that ADA will fully recover to its historical high of $3.09, marking a rebound of 75.5% from its market peak in September 2021.

The bullish flag formed between November 2024 and April 2025 indicates further upward potential. Although ADA's RSI has currently entered the overbought territory and continues to rise, this will undoubtedly trigger some profit-taking as investors capitalize on its inflated price. This suggests a decline in the short term.

The main resistance level is expected to be at $1.15, while strong support is between $0.85 and $0.90.
