Price was rejected again at $94,500–$95,000 and slid back into the range. Liquidity appears heavier below spot, particularly near $90,000, keeping downside risks elevated.

As 2026 begins, Alibaba's latest Qwen3-MAX AI model outlines bullish and bearish price paths for XRP, Solana, and Bitcoin, highlighting the potential for sharp volatility. The system sketches XRP trading between roughly $1.50 and $5, Solana targeting a possible $300 to $400 range, and Bitcoin eyeing levels above $150,000 in optimistic scenarios. These projections hinge on factors such as support and resistance zones, ETF flows, and broader market conditions, while also flagging downside risks below key price thresholds.

ChatGPT 5.2 outlined dual bullish and bearish paths for XRP, PEPE, and Shiba Inu for 2026. For XRP, it highlighted $1.80 support, $2.00 resistance, and RSI around 48, with a bull case up to $8 and a revisit to the $3–$5 range. PEPE's upside exceeds 200%, while SHIB's bull scenario tops 500% and the bear case points to a possible 70% drop.

In a new experiment, ChatGPT 5.2 was asked to project potential price paths for XRP, Dogecoin and Shiba Inu heading into 2026, presenting both upside and downside scenarios. For XRP, the AI's view ranges from a decline toward $1.20 to a possible return to the $3.50–$4.20 zone following Ripple's legal win and growing adoption. It also anticipates that a renewed memecoin cycle and broader risk-on sentiment could lift Dogecoin toward $0.30–$0.35 and help Shiba Inu recover if key price levels are reclaimed and its planned 2026 network upgrade is completed.

As 2025 enters its final week, DeepSeek AI released updated projections for XRP, Solana and Cardano through the end of 2026. The model flags a high-volatility phase and maps bull and bear paths: XRP's upside targets $4.50–$6.00 with a risk to $1.00, Solana's $275–$350 with $80–$95 downside, and Cardano's $0.85–$1.20 with a $0.25–$0.28 floor.

Analysts say Solana remains capped below $127, with bulls defending around $123 as momentum wanes. According to the article, SOL ETFs logged about $1.4M in inflows on December 24, but traders are watching for a high‑volume break above $144 to confirm trend continuation.

Cardano’s ADA has fallen under $0.35 for the first time in over a year while traders watch whether it can reclaim the $0.36 resistance. Midnight’s NIGHT token has generated more than $1.5B in recent trading volume, nearly double Cardano’s roughly $400M, highlighting shifting liquidity. ADA needs to hold above $0.36 to target $0.38, while a failure could see price retest the $0.30 zone so long as support near $0.27 remains intact.

RAIN, an Arbitrum-based token, has surged 125% in the past 30 days, lifting its circulating market cap above $2.7B.
