Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Solana, Bitcoin & Hyperliquid – Asian Wrap 26 May

Veteran analyst expects large gains in SOL and XRP, seeks followers' advice to choose one

Peter Brandt, a veteran futures market chart trader since 1975, anticipates bold gains in top altcoins: Solana (SOL) and Ripple’s XRP, as he opens the floor to his X followers, seeking advice on which altcoin to choose for a $100K investment. Solana and XRP rank amongst the top 10 cryptocurrencies with market caps of $137 billion and $92 billion, respectively. Ripple’s XRP token records a 12.34% year-to-date gain while Solana is down by over 7%. However, over the last 90 days, Solana shines with a 25% rally while XRP’s growth is limited to 1.46%.

Top 3 Price Prediction: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple – BTC stabilizes while ETH and XRP hold key levels

Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Ripple (XRP) are showing signs of stabilization at the start of the week following recent bouts of volatility. BTC is consolidating after setting a new all-time high, while ETH and XRP are holding above key support levels, suggesting bulls may still have a chance to reclaim control. 

Top Gainers HYPE ZEC VIRTUAL: Social chatter fuels altcoin rally, HYPE and ZEC target new peaks

Hyperliquid trades at $39.80 with a 1.70% leap on Monday, printing a new all-time high at press time. The 12% jump on Sunday forms a bullish engulfing candle, breaking the 1.272 Fibonacci level, retraced over the 70% crash from $32.12 on December 21 to $10.26 on April 5. As the HYPE rally enters a price-discovery mode, the momentum indicators overheat. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 86 scales higher in the overbought zone, posing risks of trend reversal.
