Four altcoins are gaining attention from investors as broader crypto momentum cools: XRP, SUI, Solana, and Ethereum. XRP is trading at $2.39 with resistance near $2.50, Solana is at $171.55 with mixed momentum, SUI has dropped to $3.98 but holds long-term appeal, and Ethereum is rebounding to $2,402.26 after the Pectra upgrade.
As broader crypto momentum cools, investors are shifting their attention to four altcoins showing signs of resilience or early-stage breakout potential: XRP, SUI, Solana, and Ethereum. Here's a closer look at each:XRP
XRP is currently trading at $2.19, with resistance near $2.30 [1]. Despite its global utility and institutional support, near-term momentum appears muted, leaving tactical traders searching for more dynamic setups. The 7-day chart is nearly flat at +0.01%, suggesting the asset is locked in a tight range.
Solana
Solana (SOL) is trading at $147.87, with a +0.44% move in the last hour but a -1.50% drop over 24 hours [1]. The 7-day change of -0.54% reflects a slight downtrend despite ongoing developer activity and ecosystem growth. Its recent dip could indicate exhaustion following earlier rallies.
SUI
Sui (SUI) is currently trading at $3.36, posting a minor +0.06% hourly uptick but down -2.53% over 24 hours and -2.11% over the week [1]. While it still commands attention for its unique Move-based infrastructure and scalable architecture, market confidence appears to be cooling. Technical traders note SUI’s drop below recent support levels could open up further downside if sentiment weakens.
Ethereum
Ethereum (ETH) held steady at $1,790 after the Pectra upgrade went live on mainnet [2]. The upgrade introduced features from eleven EIPs, including improved user experience, staking efficiency, and blobspace expansion. Despite the upgrade, ETH technical indicators exhibit bearish signs as the top altcoin moves toward the end of a symmetrical triangle.
