🚀 Crypto Market Watch: XRP, Pepe & Cardano Price Forecast – July 15, 2025

Brace for volatility—three altcoins are flashing make-or-break signals this week.

XRP: The Legal Overhang Clears (Finally)

Ripple's courtroom saga wraps—now traders are betting the SEC settlement pumps fresh capital into the coin. Watch for resistance levels to shatter if institutional money wakes up.

Pepe: Meme Coin or Dark Horse?

This frog-themed token keeps dodging 'dead meme' predictions. Recent whale accumulation suggests someone’s playing a long game—or preparing an exit pump.

Cardano’s Make-or-Break Moment

ADA’s ‘academic blockchain’ faces its toughest test yet. With staking yields compressing, developers need to deliver real-world adoption—not just peer-reviewed whitepapers.

Closing thought: If history repeats, today’s ‘fundamental analysis’ will be tomorrow’s comedy material—ask any 2021 Luna bagholder.

Ripple (XRP): Cross-Border Payments Crypto Arguably Price Performer of the Year

Ripple’s XRP continues to strengthen its position as a key connector between traditional banking infrastructures and blockchain-based remittance networks.

Its capability to allow near-instant global transactions at minimal fees has attracted notable institutional interest. The United Nations has even recognised XRP as a feasible solution for transferring funds internationally without reliance on traditional intermediaries.

After enduring years of legal challenges with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Ripple secured a pivotal legal victory in 2023 when a court ruled that retail sales of XRP did not constitute securities transactions. The SEC officially dropped the case in 2025, ending the four-year litigation.

This outcome solidified XRP’s standing within the industry, creating an important regulatory benchmark for the wider crypto market. Investor confidence surged following this development, driving XRP’s price up by over 464% within a year, outperforming Bitcoin’s 103% gain over the same period.

XRP faces stiff resistance at its current level of around $3, but it’s likely to smash through this as arguably the biggest success story among the billion cap altcoins.

Earlier this year, a bullish flag pattern formed across its support and resistance lines, suggesting the possibility of a surge towards $3.50 this summer, surpassing its previous peak of $3.40 set in January 2018.

Pepe ($PEPE): Meme Coin Giant Targets Fresh Record Highs

Pepe ($PEPE) has carved out its place among the top three meme coins, driven by the meme’s cultural popularity and strong market performance.

Inspired by Matt Furie’s iconic cartoon frog, $PEPE has generated massive returns for early investors and now ranks among the top three meme tokens, with a market valuation exceeding $4.6 billion.

Launched in April 2023, Pepe triggered a wave of copycat tokens, though none have managed to match its momentum or staying power. Its rise gained further traction when Elon Musk briefly adopted a Pepe-themed profile picture on X (formerly Twitter).

Currently priced around $0.00001235, $PEPE has posted gains of 23% in the past week, although it is still approximately 56% below its all-time high of $0.00002803 set in late 2024, technical analysts observed a falling wedge pattern in Q1, a formation typically indicative of an incoming upward price breakout.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has reached 65, indicating strengthening bullish momentum, suggesting limited further potential gains for $PEPE through the week as it is close to 70, which typically signals an over-priced asset, triggering a selloff.

If macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions remain stable, PEPE may embark on another major rally before summer ends.

Cardano ($ADA): Can This Eco-Friendly Crypto Set New Price Highs in 2025?

Interest in Cardano ($ADA) is on the rise, bolstered by institutional backing and positive technical indicators. Like XRP and Solana, Cardano was named by Donald Trump as a possible reserve crypto asset for inclusion in a proposed U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

Founded in 2014 by ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson, Cardano is acclaimed for its research-driven development model and energy-efficient Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus, which spurred Ethereum’s own transition from Proof-of-Work to PoS.

With a market capitalisation of $27.4 billion, ADA would need to more than triple in value to surpass solana and challenge Ethereum’s market dominance.

In the last seven days, cardano outperformed Bitcoin during the market-wide rally, adding 27% to its price while Bitcoin only grew 12%.

Current projections suggest ADA could climb from its present price of $0.76 to nearly $2 by mid-year. More bullish forecasts anticipate a full recovery to its previous all-time high of $3.09, marking a rebound from its 75.5% drop since September 2021.

Strong support levels and a bullish flag formation observed between November and April hint at continued upside potential, although ADA’s RSI has strayed into overbought territory at 72, which means traders will be doing a spot of profit-taking that could depreciate the price over the week.

The next immediate level of resistance is at $1.15, but ADA enjoys strong support in the $0.85 to $0.90 range.
