XRP, Dogecoin, and Pepe may become some of the most valuable cryptocurrency investments in the coming months and years.
Last month, the largest cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC) reached an all-time high (ATH) of $122,838, reigniting the enthusiasm of market participants. Many industry observers believe that as Bitcoin continues to challenge recent records, it may be on the verge of another upward breakout.
This bullish momentum has also spread to altcoins and popular meme coins. Over the past year, well-known cryptocurrencies such as XRP, TRON, Solana, Sui Network, Pepe, Trump, SPX6900, and FartCoin have all reached new all-time highs.
Meanwhile, regulatory developments are accelerating. Late last week, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced 'Project Crypto' aimed at modernizing existing securities laws. The project seeks to provide the long-sought regulatory clarity for the cryptocurrency sector, which the industry has been calling for years.
With growing optimism about a potential extended bull market cycle, investors are increasingly focused on digital assets that may soon break through their previous price peaks.
Ripple (XRP): The cross-border cryptocurrency is set to reach new price milestones in 2025.
Ripple's XRP surged to a new high of $3.65 on July 18, surpassing the previous peak of $3.40 set in 2018. Although it has since retraced to about $2.94, down 19.4% from its peak, the coin has risen 29% over the past 30 days, making it one of the best-performing crypto assets recently, outpacing Bitcoin and Solana.
XRP has become the preferred solution for institutional remittances due to its lightning-fast transfer speeds, very low costs, and ability to transfer funds globally without intermediaries. Recognition from organizations such as the United Nations further solidifies its credibility.
2023 is a decisive moment as a U.S. court ruled that retail XRP transactions do not constitute a securities offering, thus removing significant regulatory obstacles and reigniting investor confidence for 2025.
Over the past year, XRP has appreciated by over 485%, significantly outpacing Bitcoin's 107.5% increase during the same period.
From a technical perspective, all indicators are positive. The RSI for this currency pair is currently at 49 and is trending downwards, reflecting an increasing selling momentum.
In July, due to strong bullish activity, XRP significantly broke above the 30-day moving average. Now, the price has readjusted with the moving average, and the downside risk appears limited, having gained solid support below the original resistance level of $3.
The bullish flag pattern formed between the end of 2024 and April 2025 may now indicate a potential breakout above the $4 mark in the near future.
Dogecoin ($DOGE): Will the original meme coin eventually reach $1?
Dogecoin ($DOGE), initially launched in 2013, is a satirical take on crypto culture and has evolved into a leading meme token with a market capitalization exceeding $30 billion, backed by a loyal international fan base consisting of CEOs and celebrities.
With endorsements from celebrities like Elon Musk, Snoopy Dogg, and Gene Simmons, Dogecoin experienced explosive growth in 2021 and entered the mainstream spotlight.
In May of this year, institutional investors returned to the project, reigniting its upward momentum and helping Dogecoin break through the $0.25 mark. As of now, it trades at approximately $0.2001, having risen 17% over the past two weeks. During this period, Dogecoin has outperformed Bitcoin, Solana, and Shiba Inu, further demonstrating its overall robustness.
Although technical indicators remain supportive, DOGE's RSI has dropped from a recent peak of 85 to today's 62, indicating that traders have been cashing out substantial profits.
This healthy selling pressure is stabilizing Dogecoin's price, keeping it steady after a 9% drop last Wednesday. This suggests that when the market rebounds, Dogecoin's price is likely to rise near the 30-day moving average, laying the groundwork for a slow and steady increase to $0.50 by the end of summer.
The use cases for DOGE are also expanding. Tesla now accepts it for purchasing goods, and platforms like PayPal and Revolut are adding new integrations to broaden its real-world applications.
Pepe ($PEPE): The cryptocurrency and internet icon is poised for a significant rise.
Pepe ($PEPE) launched in April 2023 and quickly became one of the most successful meme coins to date, ranking in the top three by market capitalization. Its popularity stems from the internet-famous frog character created by artist Matt Furie.
The rapid development of this project has sparked a wave of imitation, but none have been able to replicate its explosive growth. Today, PEPE's market cap has surpassed $4.3 billion and even briefly became Elon Musk's avatar on the X platform, placing PEPE in the meme coin hall of fame.
Currently trading at approximately $0.00001026, it has risen 34% over the past year, but is still 63% below its all-time high of $0.00002803 set at the end of 2024. A descending wedge chart pattern may indicate an impending breakout.
The asset's RSI has dropped to 38, indicating that downward pressure may be close to exhausting. As it approaches the oversold threshold of 30, some investors are preparing for a possible rebound this weekend, making its current level a relatively good entry point.
The overall market cap of meme coins dropped by 4.7% overnight to $69.9 billion. Although Pepe itself fell by 3% in the past 24 hours, its performance could quickly reverse if investor sentiment begins to embrace risk.
With strong macroeconomic tailwinds and new momentum in the cryptocurrency market, PEPE enthusiasts are closely monitoring the potential price surge that could occur as summer approaches.
