According to market analyst Common Sense Crypto, a $1,000 bet on XRP today could turn into between $10,000 and $50,000 during this cycle. Related Reading: $120K Bitcoin In Sight: 90-Day US–China Tariff Truce Fuels Market Optimism He pointed out that the same stake in Bitcoin would likely top out at around $1,300–$1,500. That claim has caught the eye of many investors who are weighing where to put their crypto dollars. Strong ROI Comparison Common Sense Crypto ran the numbers. At XRP’s current price of $3.18, a $1,000 buy-in nets roughly 315 tokens. To hit $10k, each XRP would need to trade at $31.80. If XRP somehow climbed to $160, that small stake would swell to $50k. By contrast, a $1k purchase of Bitcoin at $120,000 today would only need BTC to rise to about $154k–$178k to yield the same $1,300–$1,500 returns. Here’s a quick fact to ponder, if you put $1,000 into $xrp today you will most likely end up with at least $10,000 – $50,000 in this cycle, if you put the same $1,000 into $btc you will most like only end up with $1300 – $1500. ROI (return on investment) is more important than… — Common Sense Crypto (@TheCSCrypto) July 12, 2025 Those are gains in the 30–50% range. This puts XRP’s upside in a very different league when viewed purely as percentages. Still, size matters. XRP’s market cap sits near $188 billion. Bitcoin’s floats around $2.37 trillion. To push XRP to $159, its valuation would need to balloon to roughly $9.5 trillion—nearly four times Bitcoin’s current size. That would require massive new inflows and adoption on a scale we’ve never seen in crypto. XRP Tops $3; CEO Sets Sights On 14% Of SWIFT Ripple’s XRP finally breached the long-awaited $3 mark after US President Donald Trump announced a new US strategic crypto reserve, including XRP and other digital assets. As one of the most traded cryptocurrencies, XRP enjoys high daily trading volumes, ensuring price stability and ease of entry for institutional investors. Ripple’s chief executive, Brad Garlinghouse, predicts that within five years, Ripple will handle about 14% of SWIFT’s worldwide cross‑border transaction flows.

In June, Edoardo Farina of Alpha Lions Academy noted that between November 2024 and January 2025, XRP jumped from $0.50 to $3.40. That’s a 7x return in just two months. Bitcoin, in that same window, climbed from $68k to $112k, a 60% gain. Farina calculated that $50k in XRP would have grown to $340k while the same investment in Bitcoin would have become about $82,352. The XRP 50x Challenge XRP’s promise of turning $1,000 into as much as $50,000 is eye‑catching. Its past leap from $0.50 to $3.40 in just two months shows what’s possible. But growing its market cap from $188 billion to $9.5 trillion means a tidal wave of new money and clear legal rules. Featured image from Meta, chart from TradingView

With the Ethereum price experiencing a decline on Monday amid a broader market correction, the altcoin continues to shine with one of its best performances in July to date. Over the past thirty days, the Ethereum price has surged by an impressive 80%, marking a significant recovery after a long period of consolidation and retest of lower levels that saw minimal bullish activity. Ethereum Price Poised For Breakout While other major digital assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and XRP have reported gains of 10% and 40%, respectively on the monthly time frame, the recent Ethereum price resurgence is particularly notable. Crypto analyst Lark Davis recently took to the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to assert that Ethereum is on the verge of breaking the $4,000 mark, indicating that momentum is building rapidly. Related Reading: TRON Sees $1B USDT Mint: Liquidity Wave Incoming? Despite its recent gains, Ethereum remains approximately 25% shy of its peak from the 2021 cycle. Historically, Bitcoin dominance has played a crucial role in determining the Ethereum price trajectory. The analyst observed that for the Ethereum price to reach its peak, Bitcoin’s dominance needs to dip to around 40%. Currently, Bitcoin’s dominance is in a downtrend at 61%, and the last time it fell to similar levels, ETH rallied over 200%. Another analyst, known as JACKIS on X, has made a bold proclamation that Ethereum will likely never trade below $3,000 again, suggesting that any such decline would indicate a catastrophic failure of the asset. However, JACKIS acknowledges that a temporary correction down to around $3,400 is still plausible given Ethereum’s proximity to the $4,000 threshold. Wall Street Sees $60,000 Implied Value Adding to the bullish sentiment surrounding ETH’s momentum, the network’s potential has been emphasized by BitMine, a company involved in Bitcoin and Ethereum mining. In a recent social media thread, BitMine highlighted that many on Wall Street view Ethereum as the most significant macro trade for the next decade. Tom Lee, the chair of BitMine, referred to stablecoins as the “ChatGPT moment” for the cryptocurrency space, projecting that stablecoin market capitalization could soar to $4 trillion—a tenfold increase. Notably, over 60% of these stablecoins are based on the Ethereum network, boosting demand for the token. Moreover, Wall Street is increasingly exploring ways to tokenize assets on the Ethereum blockchain, further driving interest and investment in the platform. Related Reading: Asia’s Bitcoin Giant Metaplanet Adds 780 BTC In Massive Crypto Bet BitMine referenced a research titled “The Bull Case For ETH,” which posits that the long-term value of Ethereum could reach an astonishing $704,000, representing an extraordinary 18,000% increase from current levels. To contextualize this valuation, BitMine consulted several research firms to estimate the “replacement” value of Ethereum in relation to Wall Street’s activities. While this figure is intended for illustrative purposes, the implied value for Ethereum has been suggested to be around $60,000. When writing, ETH price trades approximately at $3,766.

Except for its name, nothing is little about Little Pepe ($LILPEPE). Not its ambition, token giveaway, nor the amount raised. The project itself wants to take meme coins to the next level with its Little Pepe Layer 2 blockchain. Once launched, this will deliver the speed, security, and low fees that modern meme coins need. With the L2, common issues with popular blockchains like Ethereum and Solana will be addressed once and for all. But this journey needs support, which is where the Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) token presale comes in. What’s the Little Pepe Presale All About? It’s a fundraising effort that will allow you to take a direct hand at making the L2 happen. Costing only $0.0017 each, it’s a very affordable way to invest in the project. To date, Little Pepe has raised over $13.7M, making it one of the year’s best crypto to watch. If you spend at least $100 in the presale and complete tasks, you’ll get the chance to join the project’s $777K giveaway. This prize pool will be divided equally between 10 winners, which means you’ll receive $77K worth of $LILPEPE tokens. To get started, head on to the Little Pepe presale page, connect your crypto wallet, enter how many tokens you want to buy, and pay with your credit/debit card, $ETH, or $USDT. From the Earth to the Moon: The Little Pepe Roadmap Like every token presale, Little Pepe’s goal is to go to the moon. To get there, it has a three-phase roadmap, with the presale happening at stage 1. Right now, the team is also building partnerships and creating buzz to make the project even more viral. When it’s moon-ready, the token will be launched in the market’s top exchanges and on Uniswap. This will add further hype to the project as investors buy and trade $LILPEPE. Finally comes the blockchain launch. With an ambitious goal of hitting the top 100 in CoinMarketCap, Little Pepe is taking the right steps to get there. This is where its tokenomics comes in. Tale of the Tape: Little Pepe in Numbers Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) has a total supply of 100B tokens. A huge chunk of this will go towards Chain Reserves (30%) and the Presale (26.5%), which ensure the project’s stability well after the chain is launched. Another thing to note is its Marketing budget (10%). As meme coins rely heavily on hype, this token allocation will allow Little Pepe to get the buzz it needs to succeed, particularly in the early stages of the presale. When it comes to marketing, the team plans on collaborating with influencers, spreading memes and videos, and potentially putting up a billboard to get the word out both online and offline. Slowly But Surely: The Little Pepe Vesting Schedule Little Pepe will also have a token vesting schedule, which will be as follows: TGE – 0% of tokens will be unlocked at launch Cliff – Tokens will be locked for a further three months Vesting – 5% of $LILPEPE tokens will be released every 30 days after the cliff This means that not all tokens will be released post-presale, but rather gradually over time. The strategy is important for several reasons. For one, this helps prevent sell-offs that can crash the token’s price. It also signals that the team is here for the long term and not for short-term gains. Finally, this allows everyone—from the developers to investors—to grow with the project. Time to Hop In—The Little Pepe Hype Train is Here With its goal to dominate the meme coin marketplace, Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) is making bold moves to make it happen. It’s no surprise that it’s already raised over $13.7M in its presale, with plenty of room for growth as it progresses. If you’re ready to join the Little Pepe hype train, then head on to its official presale page and grab some coins.
