Four of the most utilized AI chatbots speculate on which one of the two largest altcoins will be the first to reach a significant round-numbered target of $10 for XRP and $10,000 for ETH.
Although they acknowledged that it was a challenging prediction to make given their speculative nature, all four backed the same horse.
Who’s First?
Leaving aside the communities behind both cryptocurrencies and their respective ecosystems, this article will focus on what ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Grok answered when asked the same question: Will XRP hit $10 first, or will ETH reach $10,000 first?
Historically, Ether had come closer to its rather tall goal as it surged to almost $5,000 back in 2021. In contrast, XRP’s all-time high was at $3.4 in January 2018, and the asset only managed to match it in 2025
Although ETH is slightly closer to its target now, the difference is negligible as both require rather similar price increases (of around 300%) to reach their respective goals. While this sounds significant, especially for the two largest altcoins, let’s not forget that XRP experienced an even moreremarkable price surgein late 2024 and early 2025.
All AI solutions admitted that ETH appears as the more likely horse to win this race. They laid out its path toward the $10,000 target, claiming that ecosystem growth, network upgrades, RWA tokenization, and institutional adoption will push it higher.
ChatGPT was particularly interested in the institutional adoption segment, indicating that ETH has an advantage not just because of the ETF demand it sees, but also due to the growing number of companies that have recently startedstoringether as a reserve asset. Some even dumped BTC to buy more ETH.
Ethereum hitting $10,000 first seems more probable in the medium term. Its established ecosystem, ongoing technological advancements (especially the impact of spot ETFs), and its central role in the broader crypto space (DeFi, NFTs, RWA tokenization) provide a more diverse and robust set of drivers. The percentage increase required for Ethereum is also slightly lower than for XRP to reach $10.” – concluded Gemini but the sentiment was echoed by all other AIs.XRP’s Case
Although the AI chatbots seemed conclusive in picking ETH as the potential winner, they also outlined the less probable scenario in which XRP goes into double-digit price territory first. Gemini said that its path is “contingent on regulatory clarity and widespread institutional adoption for cross-border payments.
Grok noted that Ripple’s token can reach $10 if the company behind it continues with its massive partnerships and acquisitions, which could increase the overall trust in the project.
Recall that the company spent over $1.2 billion earlier this year to acquire the prime brokerage giant Hidden Road, a move described by the community as a “game-changer” for XRP.
Additionally, all four AIs highlighted the potential approval of spot XRP ETF in the States, the odds of which are over 90%, according to experts and Polymarket. This would open the doors for institutions to invest in XRP through regulated financial vehicles, which should, in theory, act as a price booster.

ETH news update: Will Ether ETF buying help bulls secure close above $2.7K?
ETHUSDT +2.47% Key point:
Ether aims to establish a new trend, but bulls need to secure a daily close above $2,635 first.
ETHUSD price has been in a range for several days, but institutional investors seem to be silently accumulating. Ether exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded $225 million in inflows for the trading week ended Friday, according to CoinShares data. It was the 11th successive week of inflows into Ether ETPs.
Could sustained buying into Ether ETPs propel the price above the overhead resistance? Let’s analyze the charts to find out.
Ether price prediction
Ether has been maintaining above the 20-day exponential moving average ($2,507) for the past few days, indicating a positive sentiment from traders.
The bulls will have to quickly push the price above the $2,635 level to open the doors for a rally to the overhead resistance of $2,738. Sellers are expected to pose a strong challenge in the $2,738 to $2,879 zone.
On the downside, a break and close below the 20-day EMA suggests the bulls have given up. That increases the risk of a drop to the solid support at $2,323. Buyers are likely to emerge between $2,111 and $2,323.
The ETHUSDT pair has formed a symmetrical triangle pattern on the 4-hour chart, indicating indecision between the bulls and the bears. The advantage will tilt in favor of the bulls on a break and close above the triangle. If that happens, the pair could surge toward the pattern target of $2,751.
Instead, if the price turns down and breaks below the triangle, it signals that the advantage has tilted in favor of the bears. The pair may then fall to the target objective of $2,364.

Bitcoin Traders Are Betting Against the Rally, Will It Backfire?
BTCUSD −0.44%
BTCUSDT −0.42% Bitcoin has continued to trade within a tight range just below its previous all-time high, showing recent signs of upward movement but falling short of reclaiming its peak price.
The asset recorded a seven-day high of $110,307, but it has since cooled, with current trading levels around $108,311, representing a slight 0.3% drop over the last 24 hours.
While the broader market maintains cautious optimism, several indicators suggest that market participants remain split on where Bitcoin is headed next.
Bitcoin Shorts Increase on Binance Despite Price Climb
Despite the price strength seen in recent days, certain signals hint at increasing friction between bullish price action and bearish positioning from traders.
According to a recent analysis by CryptoQuant contributor BorisVest, Bitcoin’s rise is being met with a counterintuitive decline in funding rates on Binance, the largest crypto exchange by volume. This trend could play a crucial role in shaping short-term market behavior.
BorisVest noted that as Bitcoin consolidates within the $100,000 to $110,000 range, funding rates on Binance have gradually declined. This suggests that a significant number of traders are taking short positions—essentially betting that Bitcoin’s rally will soon reverse.
Declining Bitcoin funding rates on Binance. The analyst explained that this behavior indicates skepticism about the sustainability of the recent price gains, particularly among retail and leverage-focused traders. “The declining funding rates show that users on Binance are increasingly shorting Bitcoin,” he explained.
“This dynamic often creates forced exits as short positions come under pressure, leading to liquidations or forced margin increases. These events can further propel upward price movement as positions get closed out automatically.”
Given Binance’s dominance in trading volume, BorisVest emphasized that its funding rate trend serves as a strong proxy for overall market sentiment. If current positioning continues, the market may see a short squeeze, which could accelerate Bitcoin’s momentum toward new highs.
On-Chain Metric Flags Caution as NVT Golden Cross Edges Higher
While futures market dynamics are drawing attention, on-chain data is also showing signs worth monitoring. Another CryptoQuant analyst, Burak Kesmeci, highlighted the movement of Bitcoin’s NVT Golden Cross metric, a tool used to assess market value in relation to on-chain transaction volume.
This metric has historically signaled local tops when it moves above specific thresholds. In his analysis, Kesmeci pointed out that the NVT Golden Cross successfully identified three prior short-term peaks in 2025, each followed by corrections ranging from 9% to over 20%.
The metric currently sits at 1.98, below the 2.2 threshold that has often indicated overheated market conditions, but is trending upward. “While the current level isn’t yet in the danger zone,” Kesmeci wrote, “its upward trajectory could be an early warning that price momentum is beginning to overextend.”
However, the analyst cautioned against interpreting the signal as immediately bearish. In previous cases, the NVT Golden Cross remained elevated for several days before a correction followed.
This behavior may instead point to continued strength among bulls, at least in the medium term, even if a near-term pullback remains possible.
XRPBTC −0.05% XRP price started a strong upward move above the $2.250 zone and tested $2.35. The price is now correcting gains below the $2.30 level.
XRP price started a fresh increase above the $2.250 zone. The price is now trading above $2.250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There was a break below a bullish trend line with support at $2.2650 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken). The pair could start another increase if it stays above the $2.240 zone. XRP Price Fails To Retains Gains
XRP price started a fresh increase after it settled above the $2.250 level, beating Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price was able to climb above the $2.2850 resistance level.
The bulls were able to push the price above the $2.30 level. However, the bears remained active near the $2.350 zone. The price faced rejection and started a fresh decline. It declined below the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.205 swing low to the $2.353 high.
Besides, there was a break below a bullish trend line with support at $2.2650 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. The price is now trading above $2.250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.280 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.2880 level. A clear move above the $2.2880 resistance might send the price toward the $2.320 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.350 resistance or even $2.3650 in the near term. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be $2.40.
More Losses?
If XRP fails to clear the $2.2880 resistance zone, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.250 level. The next major support is near the $2.240 level and the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2.205 swing low to the $2.353 high.

How Binance Alpha Relates to Solana (SOL)
Solana on Binance Alpha:
While Solana (SOL) itself is an established cryptocurrency and not a typical “early-stage” project, Binance Alpha could feature Solana-based tokens or projects built on the Solana blockchain due to its high throughput, low fees (~$0.00026 per transaction), and dominance in DeFi and memecoin ecosystems (e.g., BONK, WIF). Solana’s ecosystem aligns with Binance Alpha’s focus on innovative Web3 projects.
Trading on Binance: SOL is a major asset on Binance, with high liquidity in pairs like SOL/USDT ($753.10M volume in September 2021) and SOL/FDUSD ($460.68M 24-hour volume as of July 2025). Binance Alpha’s Quick Buy feature could facilitate trading of Solana-based tokens, and users holding SOL in their Binance Wallet or Exchange accounts can earn Alpha Points to participate in exclusive events.
Ecosystem Synergy: Solana’s growing adoption for tokenized assets, DeFi (81% of DEX transactions), and institutional use cases (e.g., Fiserv, Visa) makes it a likely candidate for hosting projects featured on Binance Alpha. For example, Solana-based memecoins or tokenized equities (e.g., TSLA, NVDA) could appear on the platform.
Price: The live price of Solana (SOL) on Binance is approximately $194.30–$206.53 USD, with variations across different reports:
Binance reports SOL at $194.30 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $4.50B USD and a market cap of $93.99B USD (circulating supply: 483.76M SOL).
Another Binance source lists SOL at $206.53 USD with a market cap of $99.74B USD (circulating supply: 482.93M SOL).
24-Hour Price Change: Mixed performance, with Binance reporting a -2.14% decrease to +4.35% increase, depending on the specific data point.
7-Day Price Change: Down approximately -2.14%, indicating short-term bearish pressure.
24-Hour Trading Volume:
Binance reports $4.50B USD for SOL/USD.
The SOL/FDUSD trading pair on Binance is highly active, with a 24-hour trading volume of $460.68M USD, making it the most popular pair for SOL on the platform.
Market Capitalization: Ranges from $93.99B–$99.74B USD, ranking SOL as the #5 or #6 cryptocurrency by market cap on Binance and other exchanges.
Circulating Supply: Approximately 482.93M–483.76M SOL, with no fixed maximum supply due to Solana’s inflationary model (19.01% yearly inflation rate, creating 85.45M SOL in the last year).
🐸 PEPE Coin is a meme-based cryptocurrency inspired by the Pepe the Frog internet meme. It was launched in April 2023 as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain. Unlike some serious crypto projects, PEPE is primarily for fun and community-driven hype—similar to Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.
🔍 Key Features:
No real utility: PEPE is not backed by any product or platform. It's a meme coin purely for speculative trading.
Massive supply: It has a supply of 420.69 trillion tokens, matching its humorous branding.
No taxes: Originally launched with zero transaction taxes, appealing to traders.
Community focused: PEPE relies heavily on social media, memes, and influencer buzz.
📈 Why It Gained Attention:
Explosive price growth shortly after launch (some made millions early).
Got listed on major exchanges like Binance and KuCoin, adding to credibility.
It created a trend of more meme tokens (like WOJAK, TURBO, etc.).
⚠️ Risks to Know:
High volatility: Prices can swing wildly.
No intrinsic value: It’s driven by hype, not fundamentals.
Rug-pull potential: Like many meme coins, it carries risks if developers abandon the project.
✅ Good to Know:
Only invest what you can afford to lose.
Great for short-term trading or joining meme culture—but not for long-term holding unless you’re okay with risk.
