Bitcoin is making significant efforts to maintain its position around $90,000 despite fluctuations, marking a noteworthy return to its recent highs. Although bearish forces attempted to push the price below $80,000, they were unsuccessful. Consequently, a short-term upward trend may have begun, though it may be too early to celebrate. Meanwhile, altcoins, including XRP, AVAX, and LINK, have witnessed double-digit increases, prompting curiosity about their potential future values.
Avalanche (AVAX)
The surge in altcoins was led by AVAX, a rare occurrence that began yesterday. Robust performance from fundamental layer-1 solutions is anticipated in 2026. For AVAX, 2025 represented bear market conditions, but its performance is expected to improve in 2026. Notably, the token‘s unlock rate has slowed in the new year, transitioning to a more balanced supply growth compared to the rapid expansion between 2022 and 2025, with nearly 75% of the supply already in circulation.
The rapid surge yesterday returned prices to their December 11 levels, with the possibility of testing $14.75 again over the weekend. If the rise continues, the $15.94 level is targeted as the next support, while $13 serves as a critical level in the event of a pullback.
XRP Coin and LINK Coin
XRP Coin, after a series of lower lows and horizontal movements, is finally poised to return to $2. Reclaiming $1.98 as support before the weekend reflects an ambition to advance to $2.08, with $2.28 anticipated as a potential peak during aggressive gains.
XRP ETF inflows have exceeded $1.24 billion, with steady inflows persisting. Should today’s surge pave the way for an entry record through the ETF channel, XRP prices could ascend more swiftly over the weekend.
While LINK Coin has observed favorable ETF inflows, interest has waned considerably. Today’s ETF inflows might accelerate due to a 6% price surge. Upon maintaining the $12 floor, LINK Coin enthusiasts are targeting $13.6, with ambitions to exceed this threshold and venture toward the $14.8 resistance level over the weekend.
