Google’s Gemini AI model predicts that several high-profile altcoins could experience strong price surges before the end of 2025, buoyed by Bitcoin’s explosive ascent.

Bitcoin recently made headlines by reaching an all-time high of $122,838 last week—a milestone many experts believe could spark accelerated mainstream crypto adoption, assuming the bullish trend holds.

This breakout has injected new enthusiasm across the crypto sector, fueling predictions that the next market upswing could eclipse the record-setting rally of 2021 and push leading altcoins into uncharted territory.

Here are the digital assets Gemini AI predicts could generate substantial returns by the holiday season.

XRP (Ripple): Gemini Predicts Price Multiplying 6x Before 2025 Ends

Gemini’s projections place Ripple’s leading blockchain coin XRP (XRP) at a potential $20 valuation by late 2025—representing a sixfold increase from its current price of about $3.22.

The forecast follows XRP’s robust performance this year. The token reached a new record high of $3.65 on July 18, surpassing its previous 2018 peak of $3.40. XRP has gained 9% over the last two weeks and 47% over the last month, outpacing both Bitcoin and other altcoins listed in this report.

Growing investor confidence stems from evolving regulatory clarity, increased utility, and speculation surrounding the launch of an XRP-based spot ETF—all of which could attract significant investment flows.

XRP facilitates lightning-fast, cost-effective cross-border transactions without intermediaries. In 2024, the United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) endorsed XRP as a frictionless blockchain solution for international remittances.

A pivotal legal victory came in 2023, when a U.S. court ruled that Ripple’s sales of XRP to retail buyers did not constitute securities transactions. The SEC formally ended its case by March 2025, eliminating one of the biggest hurdles facing the token.

With XRP currently trading 11.4% below its ATH, surpassing that benchmark could pave the way toward Gemini’s more conservative $5 to $15 year-end target, with upside potential for even higher gains.

Its RSI has dipped from 86 last Monday to 61 today, indicating a cooling period which may allow the asset to consolidate before another upward move.

In a scenario where regulatory conditions improve further—such as under a Trump-led administration—Gemini AI suggests XRP might even double its projected value, eclipsing previous records set during the 2021 bull run.

Over the past year, XRP has climbed 433%, outperforming Bitcoin’s 75% growth during the same period.

Shiba Inu (SHIB): Gemini Says SHIB Fans Could See a 35X Surge by Year’s End in Most Bullish Case Scenario

Shiba Inu (SHIB), introduced in August 2020, has become the second-largest meme coin behind Dogecoin, boasting a market capitalization of approximately $8.3 billion.

Trading at around $0.00001408, SHIB has posted a 23% rise over the past month. Technically, the coin is nearing breakouts from two key chart formations: a descending wedge observed between November and March, and a bullish flag that appeared in mid-May.

Key resistance is located at $0.000022, but sustained momentum could drive SHIB toward Gemini’s more bullish prediction of $0.0001 to $0.0005 by December—an increase of 7x to 35x from current levels.

Contributing to this potential rally is SHIB’s aggressive token burn mechanism. This month, 1.3 billion SHIB tokens were burned in the space of seven days, reflecting a burn rate surge of 2,080%.

SHIB is also expanding beyond meme coin status. Built atop Ethereum, it now benefits from its Layer-2 solution, Shibarium, which enhances scalability, slashes gas fees, and improves dApp performance and user privacy—making SHIB an increasingly viable asset for broader DeFi usage.

Pepe ($PEPE): Gemini Predicts a 3x Climb for Meme Giant

Pepe ($PEPE), inspired by the legendary cartoon frog created by Matt Furie, has quickly become one of the top meme cryptocurrencies by market cap since its debut in April 2023. It now holds a valuation of more than $5.4 billion, outperforming all fellow non-dog-themed meme coin competitors.

Despite a flood of imitators, PEPE has maintained dominance thanks to vibrant community support and deep market liquidity. Elon Musk has subtly hinted at PEPE being among his preferred holdings alongside Dogecoin.

Currently priced near $0.0000129 and up 37.5% over the last month, PEPE has outpaced the daily 30-day returns of Bitcoin and Ethereum, though today it is slightly underperforming with a modest 0.4% dip in the last 24 hours as the rest of the $84 billion meme coin market rallied 3.2%.

Gemini AI believes PEPE could triple in value by year-end, reaching as high as $0.000035—high above its December 2024 all-time high of $0.00002803, from which it has since fallen by 54%.

Technicals show a descending wedge pattern formed between November and March—a setup that typically signals a steep trend reversal upwards in the near-term.

Should bullish momentum continue, PEPE could revisit prior highs and potentially rise to $0.00004 or even $0.00005 before the New Year, especially if a broader market rally unfolds.

TOKEN6900: Meme Coin Targeting Parabolic Gains of 1000x

While Gemini predicts solid returns from major altcoins, their sizable market caps may restrict explosive upside potential. Traders seeking exponential growth are turning to a new generation of meme tokens.

Leading the pack is TOKEN6900 (T6900), an ERC-20 meme project that entered presale just two weeks ago.

So far, the token has raised over $1.3 million during its presale phase—indicating high early demand and a potentially lucrative launch ahead.

Embracing satire and social virality, TOKEN6900 positions itself as a pure meme coin with no illusions of utility. Its website cheekily states: “It’s Not Built On Fundamentals. It’s Built On Delusion, Irony, And The Collective Hallucination Of Terminally Online Traders.”

It draws thematic inspiration from SPX6900—a meme token parodying inflated market valuations during speculative bubbles.

TOKEN6900’s total supply is set at 930,993,091 tokens, one more than SPX6900’s presale supply, continuing the trend of self-aware branding and ironic appeal.

Despite offering no direct utility, the project includes staking mechanisms that allow holders to earn passive rewards while betting on viral growth.

The presale price is currently $0.00675 over on the official website, with another price increase expected in less than 48 hours—giving early participants the opportunity to lock in lower entry points.
