3 cryptocurrencies that could continue growing in 2025
December 26, 2024
2024 has been a landmark year for cryptocurrencies, with impressive market growth and certain altcoins. Bitcoin saw record growth, while specific tokens such as DOGE, XRP, and HBAR delivered incredible results.
1. Dogecoin: The return of the iconic memecoin
DOGE, originally created as a joke, showed a 350% increase in 2024, boosting its price from $0.081 to $0.466. This growth was driven by Donald Trump's support for blockchain innovations and Elon Musk's appointment as co-chair of the "Department of Government Efficiency" (D.O.G.E). Musk is also actively working on integrating Dogecoin into the X platform, which could boost its use as a payment method. Technical indicators, such as the "golden cross," confirm a bullish trend, and analysts predict DOGE could reach $3 in 2025.
2. XRP: Victory over the SEC and growing institutional interest
XRP became one of the most successful cryptocurrencies of 2024, showing over 330% growth. The main catalyst was the court decision that freed XRP from being classified as a security when sold on public exchanges, easing pressure from the SEC. Growth was also supported by new political initiatives in the U.S. and the launch of the RLUSD stablecoin, which quickly gained popularity.
Experts predict that XRP will continue to grow in 2025, potentially reaching $8.77 if Ripple executes its plans in cross-border payments.
3. Hedera Hashgraph: Revival and growth in DeFi
Hedera Hashgraph experienced an impressive revival in 2024, increasing its price by more than 800%. This was driven by applications for creating a spot HBAR ETF in the U.S. and Europe, which attracted institutional investors. Additionally, significant growth in DeFi, where the Total Value Locked (TVL) in the Hedera ecosystem increased from $53 million to nearly $200 million, played a role.
Technical analysis confirms a bullish trend, providing grounds for further growth in 2025. With strengthened positions in DeFi and rising institutional interest, Hedera has all the potential to solidify its place in the top 20 cryptocurrencies.
