The advanced AI platform Perplexity predicts that leading altcoins could reach unprecedented highs during the second half of 2025, buoyed by Bitcoin’s impressive price rally.
Earlier this week, Bitcoin shattered its previous record by hitting $122,838, marking an all-time high (ATH). Analysts suggest this momentum could continue, potentially accelerating global adoption of cryptocurrencies.
The magnitude of Bitcoin’s surge has ignited widespread optimism among investors, with growing speculation that an even more powerful bull run than 2021’s legendary rally could be unfolding, pushing many major altcoins into new valuation territories.
Outlined below are the digital assets Perplexity expects to experience substantial growth in the near term.
XRP (Ripple): Perplexity Predicts Doubling Potential for This Cross-Border Leader
According to Perplexity’s projections, Ripple’s XRP could surge to $20 by late 2025, representing nearly a sevenfold increase from its current valuation near $3.25.
This highly bullish outlook is underpinned by expanding institutional adoption, clearer regulatory landscapes, and market speculation around an XRP spot ETF—an event that could open the floodgates for both retail and institutional capital inflows.
XRP’s reputation as a fast, cost-effective, and compliant cross-border payment solution continues to strengthen. In 2024, the United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) commended XRP for facilitating rapid global transactions without relying on traditional intermediaries.
A major court decision in 2023 ruled that XRP’s retail sales did not constitute securities transactions, weakening the SEC’s long-standing position against XRP and the broader altcoin market beyond Bitcoin.
In March, Ripple’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, announced the formal end to this protracted legal battle, eliminating a key overhang for XRP and restoring investor confidence across the crypto sector.
However, hitting the ambitious $20 milestone will require a catalyst, likely in the form of regulatory advancements within the U.S., where the crypto industry continues to lobby for clearer guidelines.
XRP is currently on a roll after rising 9% in the last 24 hours and 32% in the last week, thanks to the help of what looks like whale purchases.
These buy-ins have given it a scorching hot relative strength index (RSI) of 86 and traders are likely to cash in their gains over the weekend. So, $XRP may have some difficulty challenging its 2018 ATH of $3.40 this weekend, but perhaps not. At it’s current price of $3.26, it is only 4.4% short of the mark.
XRP remains the top-performing large-cap cryptocurrency, with a 442% gain over the past year, significantly outpacing Bitcoin’s 83% rise.
Ethereum ($ETH): Perplexity AI Predicts Nearly 4X Gains for the Smart Contract Pioneer
Ethereum ($ETH) maintains its status as the second-largest crypto asset by market capitalisation, exceeding $411.7 billion, and serves as a core infrastructure layer for decentralized applications.
Dominating the smart contract and DeFi space, Ethereum currently secures over $77.6 billion in total value locked, reinforcing its indispensable role in Web3.
Perplexity anticipates ETH could climb to $5,000 by year-end, a sizeable increase from its current price of around $3,403.
Supporting this forecast are upcoming network upgrades, its foundational presence in decentralized finance and NFTs, and growing institutional adoption—especially with new spot ETFs offering regulated exposure to ETH.
In a bull market, Ethereum may even get close to Perplexity’s target by fall. However, it is now oversold, so some short-term profit-taking will curb this rally. Ethereum is also likely to meet resistance at $3,600, although any losses could be pared back by support at $3,200.
Additional upside could materialize if Trump advances comprehensive crypto regulatory reforms, providing clearer legal pathways that might unlock further market growth.
Strengthening this outlook is recent accumulation by large investors. After consolidating within a falling wedge pattern, ETH rallied from $1,800 to $2,412 in early May, indicating revived institutional interest.
Dogecoin ($DOGE): The First Meme Coin Poised for a Major Upswing
Dogecoin ($DOGE), originally created as a meme-based parody in 2013, now commands a market cap of over $32.15 billion, backed by strong community support and expanding utility.
Typically mirroring Bitcoin’s price action, DOGE combines meme-driven volatility with longevity.
Currently priced $0.2139, DOGE has climbed 4.5% in the last 24 hours and 19% over the past week. Its RSI reading of 69 and upward trajectory point to increasing buying momentum as Bitcoin continues to challenge its recent high.
Technical analysis indicates a pronounced falling wedge pattern from November through April, indicating a potential near-term breakout to the upside.
Perplexity predicts DOGE could reach $1.18 during an extended bullish run, implying gains of up to 5.5X.
On the adoption front, major companies and public figures continue to endorse Dogecoin. Tesla accepts DOGE for selected merchandise, while platforms like Revolut and PayPal have integrated it for payments, enhancing its real-world applicability.
TOKEN6900: Could This New Meme Token Deliver Unprecedented 1000x Returns?
While Perplexity anticipates strong returns on established altcoins this year, their large market caps can limit explosive upside. For traders seeking dramatic gains, emerging meme coins may offer sharper growth potential.
One such project is TOKEN6900 (T6900), an ERC-20 meme token that launched its presale just a week ago.
TOKEN6900 has already raised over $585,215 from early backers, reflecting notable investor enthusiasm and expectations for a powerful debut rally.
Embracing its identity as a purely hype-driven asset, TOKEN6900 leverages irony, aggressive promotion, and FOMO rather than pursuing utility pivots.
Its website states: “It’s Not Built On Fundamentals. It’s Built On Delusion, Irony, And The Collective Hallucination Of Terminally Online Traders.”
Inspired by SPX6900, another meme token celebrating absurdist dot-com nostalgia, TOKEN6900 has a total supply of 930,993,091 tokens—exactly one more than SPX6900’s, underscoring its competitive branding strategy.
The presale’s performance so far highlights strong market appetite. While TOKEN6900 lacks inherent utility, it offers staking options that provide yields alongside speculative price gains.
Those interested can participate via the official website at its current presale price of $0.0066.
With the next price increase scheduled in under 24 hours, early entrants seeking the lowest possible buy-in during the presale may wish to act soon.
