Last week, XRP and DOGE led the gains. Which major cryptocurrencies are likely to take the lead this week? Analyzing from regulatory, technical, and capital flow perspectives, I've identified 2 tokens with the highest potential for explosive growth. Mark these for attention and don't forget to save and follow!
First potential gem: SOL (Solana). Three reasons: 1. Institutional funds are still increasing their holdings; the Bitwise SOL ETF has seen total inflows of $625 million to date, with another net inflow of $6.23 million last week, indicating high institutional recognition; 2. Clear technological advantages—fast transactions and low gas fees—along with an active NFT and DeFi ecosystem; 3. Technical indicators suggest an imminent breakout, with resistance at $140–$142. Once this level is firmly breached, significant upward momentum could follow.
The second potential stock: XRP (Ripple). Although it has risen 12% this week, there is still strong momentum ahead: 1. Regulatory benefits have not yet been fully digested, and the U.S. Senate will hold hearings on the market structure bill in January. If the bill passes, XRP, as a compliance pioneer, could rise further; 2. Institutional funds continue to flow in, with ETFs seeing a net inflow for 8 consecutive weeks, and there is still incremental capital to come; 3. The supply-tight situation has not changed, and the inventory at exchanges is still at an 8-year low.
This week's operational rhythm: SOL can be pre-positioned at $133-$135, with a stop loss at $130 and a target of $145-$150; XRP can add positions on a pullback to $2.0-$2.1, with a stop loss at $1.9 and a target of $2.5-$3.0. If it rises directly without pulling back, do not chase high; wait for confirmation of a breakout before entering with a small position.
Another signal to watch: news from the U.S. Senate hearing and whether Bitcoin can stabilize at $95,000. These two signals will affect the overall market sentiment, and if both are positive, mainstream coins are likely to continue to rotate and rise next week.
