XRP is gradually approaching legal clarity, and if the $2 support level holds, it may trigger a breakout.
The chart structure of SUI and soaring DeFi metrics indicate that a breakout above $11 is occurring.
Cardano's corporate appeal and Leios upgrade underscore its long-term resilience.
Despite Bitcoin's significant drop from a daily high of $102,000 to $98,000, triggering widespread sell-offs in cryptocurrency, a few altcoins (XRP, XLM, SUI, DOGE, and ADA) are quietly preparing for a potential comeback.
Despite market jitters and significant short-term volatility, these digital assets may soon see larger fluctuations driven by growing institutional interest, strong technical setups, and ecosystem development.
Stellar (XLM): Expanded institutional access
Stellar (XLM) has fallen nearly 3% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $0.2310. Meanwhile, trading volume surged by 31%, potentially driven by short-term liquidations. However, beneath the surface, significant developments suggest that the asset may be bottoming out.
The Swedish Spotlight Stock Market recently launched an ETP priced in Stellar through DeFi Technologies' subsidiary Valour. This listing aims to broaden investment channels for investors and highlight Stellar's utility in global payments and cross-border remittances.
Despite recent price weakness, XLM is approaching technical resistance levels at the 20-day EMA ($0.2545) and the 50-day EMA ($0.2662), which may lay the groundwork for a reversal.
XRP: Clarity from the lawsuit may trigger a breakout
XRP fell by 2%, currently trading at $2.02, dragged down by rumors that the SEC lawsuit may be delayed until 2026. However, legal expert Bill Morgan has denied this claim, stating that such a delay is 'unlikely to happen.'
He hopes the judge will uphold the summary judgment and current penalties - an outcome that would avoid further legal troubles.
From a technical perspective, XRP failed to break through the $2.27 resistance level and faces $29.4 million in long liquidations in the derivatives market. However, if the $2.00 support level holds and a settlement is reached soon, the possibility of a breakout still exists.
With legal uncertainties potentially about to be resolved and investor interest remaining strong, XRP may soon see the long-awaited rebound.
Credit Suisse: Poised for action, ready for large-scale moves
Among altcoins, SUI may be the most structurally interesting. Currently, SUI is trading at $2.37 and has formed a classic symmetrical triangle on the weekly chart. Trading volume is decreasing, and the price is stabilizing between $2.25 and $2.35.
According to technical analyst 'eye zen hour', a breakout could drive SUI to $11.47 - 4.8 times higher than the current level.
Sui Network has recently partnered with Wormhole and OKX Wallet, bringing billions of dollars in cross-chain liquidity to the network. Over the past three weeks, its total locked value (TVL) has reached $400 million, with cumulative DEX trading volume hitting $10 billion, approaching Ethereum in terms of stablecoin activity.
With both structural and fundamental factors aligned, SUI appears to be a ticking time bomb ready to explode.
DOGE: Community-driven hype and ETF potential
Dogecoin is back in the spotlight, trading at $0.147 after weeks of stagnation. It has become one of the most talked-about assets on social media again, with discussions surrounding its utility, unlimited supply, and potential integration with Elon Musk's X platform.
Although Musk has yet to confirm whether cryptocurrency will be integrated into X's upcoming peer-to-peer payment system, Dogecoin fans are closely watching. Additionally, with ETF optimism on the rise, there are rumors that Dogecoin will be one of the candidates for the approval of a spot ETF.
Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart stated that approval is merely a 'matter of time', not 'if'. He believes there is a 90% chance that Dogecoin will be approved by the end of the year. If the prospect of a Dogecoin ETF becomes a reality, its viral community could rapidly expand its gains.
ADA: Corporate traction and Leios upgrade
Cardano (ADA) price fell to $0.5132 but has rebounded to $0.5477, with trading volume surging to $1 billion as buyers return. Nearly $1 billion worth of ADA has been withdrawn from exchanges in 2025, with 310 million ADA being bought up by whales in just June.
The development momentum of Cardano is not merely speculative. A pilot project involving Ford, Iagon, and Cloud Court is exploring the application of ADA in legal data management through decentralized storage technology. This initiative aims to pave the way for Cardano's enterprise applications in legal, healthcare, and financial sectors.
Meanwhile, the upcoming Leios upgrade is garnering attention for its ambitious redesign of the Cardano consensus protocol. The Leios mainnet is scheduled to launch in 2026 (originally planned for 2028) and promises to enhance scalability, tiered fees, and faster synchronization speeds.
