XRP Faces Short-Term Pain, Bitcoin Holds Strong, Solana Eyes New Highs

Analyst Warns XRP Holders Might Witness Short-Term Pain, Updates Outlook for Bitcoin and Solana

Crypto strategist DonAlt has warned XRP holders that the altcoin might experience short-term pain as it struggles to maintain support at $2.95. The analyst suggests that if XRP fails to reclaim this level, it could face further downside price action, potentially dropping to $2.72. At the time of writing, XRP was trading at $2.93, down over 4% on the day.

DonAlt also provided insights into Bitcoin's (BTC) performance, noting that the cryptocurrency has held strong despite President Donald Trump's threats of hefty tariffs on foreign nations. The analyst predicts that BTC could drop to its support at $99,000 as it continues to respect resistance at $106,222. At the time of writing, BTC was worth $101,342.

Turning to layer-1 protocol Solana (SOL), DonAlt believes the altcoin is positioning for a sustained surge to new record highs, despite struggling to shatter resistance at $250. The analyst suggests that SOL could drop to its support at $190 if it fails to close new highs. At the time of writing, SOL was trading for $217.

A new AI tool, Deepseek, has predicted which cryptocurrencies could surge like XRP and Solana by 2025. The tool suggests that Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Remittix (RTX) are among the frontrunners likely to yield the best returns in the coming months. While Ripple and Solana are well-established in the space, Remittix is gaining traction for its extensive value offering within the global payments sector.

Solana (SOL) has achieved a 20% monthly increase, with a significant rally in mid-January and a net gain of 20% despite a recent pullback. Ripple (XRP) has also had a remarkable start to the year, with a 51% increase over the past month, despite recent declines. Remittix (RTX) is leading the PayFi sector, aiming to disrupt the $190 trillion cross-border payments market by solving age-old problems and
