Ran Neuner Backs PENGU Over XRP for 2026 as Commodity Signals Shape Bitcoin Outlook

On 14 January 2026, Ran Neuner said during an appearance on Paul Barron Network that he prefers PENGU rather than XRP as his altcoin pick going into 2026, highlighting the potential of less crowded assets. He linked crypto performance to trends in commodities such as gold, silver, and copper, argued that Bitcoin's gains may be smaller than in previous cycles but still meaningful, and questioned the idea of a strict four-year halving cycle.
