Quick Take
  • Anthropic’s Claude AI, a highly competent rival to ChatGPT, predicts that XRP, Dogecoin, and Pi Network could deliver massive upside sooner than many expect.
  • US Policymakers are also accelerating a potential bull run.
  • In July, President Trump signed the GENIUS Act, the first nationwide U.S.
  • legislation focused on stablecoins, mandating full reserve requirements.

What Happened

US Policymakers are also accelerating a potential bull run. In July, President Trump signed the GENIUS Act, the first nationwide U.S. legislation focused on stablecoins, mandating full reserve requirements. Shortly after, the SEC announced Project Crypto, a framework aimed at modernizing securities laws to better fit the digital asset era.

While markets largely shrugged at recent Fed cuts and the launch of the first spot XRP ETF, the SEC’s decisions on additional ETF applications expected next month, along with new federal crypto laws, could be major catalysts.

Market Context

The $2 trillion market leader Bitcoin is just 9% down from its all-time high (ATH) of $124,128 and is likely to set a new high watermark through the historically strong month of “Uptober”.

Claude AI projects that Ripple’s XRP ($XRP) could climb as high as $24 by late 2025, a jump of more than 739% from its current price near $2.85.

Ripple’s payment network continues to expand globally and has received notable endorsements. In 2024, the UN Capital Development Fund recognized XRP as an affordable remittance tool for emerging markets.

Cardano ($ADA) has been regaining traction, in part due to growing political visibility. Most notably, U.S. President Trump recently floated the idea of including ADA in a federal crypto reserve, sourced entirely through enforcement seizures instead of market purchases.

With a market cap of over $28.8 billion, Cardano is steadily competing with Ethereum and closing the adoption gap with Solana.

From a technical perspective, ADA has been trading in a descending wedge since late 2024, facing resistance near $1.10. A strong Uptober push it to $2 by late Q4, but a bull run is likely the only thing that could drive it higher.

Ethereum ($ETH) remains the backbone of decentralized applications and DeFi, boasting a market capitalization above $502.4 billion.

Claude projects Ethereum could reach $6,925 by year’s end, a 66% increase from its current price of $4,169.

Why It Matters

Anthropic’s Claude AI, a highly competent rival to ChatGPT, predicts that XRP, Dogecoin, and Pi Network could deliver massive upside sooner than many expect.

With stronger regulatory oversight, the next altcoin rally will eclipse the 2021 boom, fueled by regulatory clarity. If Claude AI’s outlook proves correct, XRP, Cardano, and Ethereum could be the leaders of this surge.

Claude AI suggests that a sustained move back above the July high could open the door to $4–$5, with a more aggressive bullish scenario placing upside potential anywhere between $7 and $24.

Claude forecasts ADA could hit $6.10 by year-end, a nearly 8X gain from its current level of $0.7934.

XRP (Ripple): Claude AI Sees Potential Gains of 700%+ Toward $24

XRP has already shown resilience this cycle. On July 18, it hit $3.65, surpassing its 2018 record of $3.40, before pulling back roughly 22% amid macro headwinds.

Its years-long dispute with the SEC was resolved in early 2025 when the agency dropped its lawsuit, following a 2023 ruling confirming XRP’s retail sales do not meet the definition of securities.

Technical indicators have flagged three bullish formations across support and resistance zones in the past year, hinting at a possible rapid breakout in Q4.

Over the past year, XRP has surged 346%, outpacing Bitcoin’s 77.5% gains and delivering six times Ethereum’s 58% performance.

Cardano ($ADA): Claude Predicts 8X Gains for the Smart Contract Pioneer

Created by Charles Hoskinson, one of Ethereum’s co-founders, Cardano is unique for its academic, peer-reviewed development model and its strong focus on sustainability and scalability.

Claude’s $6.10 target implies ADA would need to more than double its 2021 ATH of $3.09, a feat achievable only with the onset of rapid adoption, something that US regulators would need to cultivate with a framework.

Ethereum ($ETH): Claude AI Predicts a Strong Push Higher for the Leading Smart Contract Network

With more than $87.75 billion in total value locked (TVL), ETH’s role in smart contracts ensures its long-term relevance and adoption.
