When the crypto market enters a strong growth cycle (also known as Altcoin Season), $DOGE and $XRP are predicted to be the two 'shining stars' leading the market. This is not without basis, as the macro factors and internal strengths of these two projects are becoming increasingly strong.
1. Positive signals from legal and political fronts
SEC leadership change: There are predictions that Gary Gensler, the current chairman of the SEC, may resign if there is a change in government, especially under Donald Trump. This could pave the way for a brighter future for crypto in general and $DOGE, $XRP in particular.
$DOGE lawsuit: Lawsuits related to $DOGE have gradually been closed as previous investors withdrew their lawsuits. This helps the project escape legal pressure and return to the community.
Trump's supportive attitude towards crypto: Trump's promotion of the crypto market, coupled with the information that the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury is a Bitcoin holder, brings significant momentum to the entire blockchain space.
2. $XRP – The sleeping giant
$XRP was once one of the strongest projects in the market, even surpassing Bitcoin in market capitalization in 2018. Currently, XRP has the basis to return to the top position:
Strong backer support: XRP is backed by major financial institutions, from banks to traditional funds.
ETF potential: If XRP is approved as an ETF trading fund, its value could explode.
Practical application: The technology of Ripple (the company behind XRP) has been and is being integrated into the cross-border payment systems of many major banks worldwide.
3. $DOGE – From meme to cultural icon
$DOGE is not just a fun currency. It has now become a symbol of the community and the power of memecoins:
Support from Elon Musk: With backing from billionaire Elon Musk, $DOGE has gained enormous appeal among the public.
Simple and accessible: $DOGE remains one of the easiest currencies to use, suitable for newcomers to the crypto market.
DeSci – A prominent emerging trend in Altcoin Season
DeSci (Decentralized Science) is becoming one of the most exciting trends. With the emphasis of Vitalik Buterin and CZ at major events like DevCon, DeSci is expected to change how people fund and deploy scientific research.
DeSci tokens are in the early stages: Most DeSci tokens currently only appear on DEX, not yet widely available on CEX. This presents great opportunities for early investors.
Highlighting some prominent tokens: Projects like $OM are leading this trend.
4. Solana ($SOL) – A spectacular comeback
Solana continues to prove its position by consistently surpassing Ethereum in many key metrics:
24-hour revenue surpasses Ethereum: The strong growth of the Solana ecosystem, especially from memecoins, has helped $SOL record higher revenue than ETH in the past 24 hours.
DeFi trading volume: Solana has surpassed Ethereum in trading volume on DeFi platforms.
Long-term predictions for $SOL
With this momentum, many predict that $SOL could reach $500 by the beginning of Q1/2025. Supporting factors:
The ecosystem is booming with memecoins and NFTs.
Exceptional transaction speed, low costs.
Strong recovery after major price drops.
Conclusion and investment opportunities
$DOGE and $XRP: The top choices to lead Altcoin Season thanks to strong support from legal backing and the community.
DeSci: A new trend with great potential worth investors' early attention and participation.
$SOL: An emerging star with a solid foundation, offering great opportunities for those looking to invest long-term.
