Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson made headlines this week with a bold forecast. He told investors that ADA could rise as much as 1,000× from its current level. Bitcoin, he argued, has less room to run. His comments came as Bitcoin traded around $118,000 and Cardano lingered around $0.78. Related Reading: Bitcoin Ain’t ‘Better’, ADA Is, Cardano Founder Says Bold Claim On Returns According to Hoskinson, Bitcoin’s market cap of about $2.35 trillion leaves it with only a potential 10× upside to hit a $1 million price. By contrast, ADA sits close to $28 billion market cap. He said that a 100× move would bring ADA close to $77.90, while 1,000× would push it toward $779 per coin. Those figures imply a Cardano market cap around $27.5 trillion. It’s a gap so large that few expect it to close without major shifts in adoption or regulation. ????ADA can 1000X, Bitcoin can’t — Charles Hoskinson Charles says $BTC might 10x, but $ADA can go 100x or even 1000x.???? He mocked: “Oh sure, let’s sell ADA for Bitcoin… so we can make less money.”???? pic.twitter.com/YoZR6gUEzr — Coin Bureau (@coinbureau) July 29, 2025 Rising Debate Over Treasury Moves Based on reports, Hoskinson has also proposed converting up to $100 million of the ADA treasury into Bitcoin and stablecoins. The goal is to boost liquidity for a planned Cardano stablecoin. Some community members warn the move could trigger selling pressure on ADA. Others argue it would strengthen the ecosystem’s cash reserves. The plan has drawn criticism from inside and outside the Cardano camp, with BTC supporters calling for a full switch and ADA loyalists pushing back. Cardano’s Role In Bitcoin’s Future According to Hoskinson, Cardano could serve as a yield layer for Bitcoin, adding smart‑contract capabilities to the original chain. He said Cardano “does substantially more” than Bitcoin’s base protocol. If wallets and DeFi apps use ADA as collateral or for staking, he believes that could drive real‑world demand. Yet today’s dApp numbers still lag behind rivals like Ethereum, and developer activity remains well below industry leaders. Huge Numbers Highlight Gap Based on market caps, a 1,000× ADA rally would vault Cardano past the world’s biggest companies and many national economies. By comparison, Bitcoin shooting for another 10× gain would keep it in the same league it already dominates. The sheer scale needed for ADA to match those multiples has few precedents in financial history.

ADA holders will also track whether the treasury move happens and how it’s executed. Any large-scale asset swap could shake trader confidence. For now, Cardano’s community will weigh the promise of outsized gains against the risks of execution and market dynamics. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView

After a relatively quiet week for altcoins, XRP, Dogecoin, and Shiba Inu received a fresh wave of attention thanks to a major update from Gemini. The US-based crypto exchange announced that it is now officially allowing these three tokens, as well as Bitcoin Cash and Solana, as cross-collateral assets for its derivatives platform. Major Boost For XRP, Dogecoin, And Shiba Inu Gemini’s decision allows XRP, DOGE, and SHIB holders to use their tokens as collateral for GUSD-settled perpetual contracts, a feature that was previously limited to BTC, ETH, USDT, and Gemini stablecoin GUSD. All five newly supported tokens come with varying collateral “haircuts,” meaning only a portion of their value is counted toward margin requirements. XRP and Solana each have a 15% haircut, while Dogecoin and Shiba Inu face a more severe 30% haircut due to their higher volatility profiles. Related Reading: XRP Price Set To Teleport As Major Financial Players Tap In — Opportunity Window Closing Fast Gemini has made it easier for users to trade derivatives using a broader range of holdings by bringing these newer assets into the fold. This move not only deepens the utility of these cryptocurrencies but also opens up new use cases for traders who want to leverage their holdings in perpetual contracts without converting to stablecoins. It’s a particularly meaningful step for XRP, which has been working to strengthen its institutional appeal and global payments utility. The move is also beneficial for meme coins Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, which are seeing increasing demand outside of the meme coin niche. This expansion also shows a larger trend in crypto derivatives. Many crypto exchanges, especially those in the US, are increasingly opening their doors to altcoins. It is also a drastic turnaround from the state of the crypto market some years back. For nearly three years, XRP was delisted or unavailable on most US-based trading platforms due to the legal battle between Ripple and the US Securities and Exchange Commission. It wasn’t until July 2023, following Judge Analisa Torres’s partial ruling that XRP was not a security when sold on exchanges, that the token began to make its return to major US platforms, including Gemini. Price Action Trending Downwards At the time of writing, XRP is trading around $3.13, a 1.4% decline from the previous day but still holding within its recent range between $3.06 and $3.18. Dogecoin is trading at $0.2226, with modest intraday movement after failing to sustain its push above $0.23. The king of meme coins is down by 3.2% and 14.2% in the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Breaks Above $0.26 In Weekend Rally As Pundit Predicts 2,600% Surge Shiba Inu, meanwhile, is trading at $0.000013, also down by about 4% in the past 24 hours and over 13% in the past seven days. Nonetheless, many analysts still maintain a bullish long-term outlook for these cryptocurrencies. Forecast models project that Dogecoin could climb to $1 in the current bull cycle, while SHIB is expected to reach at least $0.000045. XRP’s trajectory is even more ambitious among many crypto analysts, with price targets ranging from $9 to $10 if adoption momentum continues and pending US Spot ETF applications finally receive approval from the SEC.
