As December and 2024 approach their end, the crypto market is expecting a “Santa Claus rally,” which saw the broader crypto market grow by 0.69-11.87% in the past ten years, with 2021 and 2022 being the only years that saw no late December gains.
The stage seems perfect for a crypto market-wide breakout following President Trump’s victory and approaching inauguration, the soar of Bitcoin past the $100,000 mark, and increased retail investor interest in the crypto space.
But which cryptos will post the highest gains? Here are 6 tokens to watch.
Wall Street Pepe (WEPE)
Wall Street Pepe is making waves in the meme coin space with over $31.5 million raised in just 16 days.
Those joining the presale will secure their spot in the project’s upcoming exclusive crypto signals group that seeks to empower smaller traders.
Wall Street Pepe will provide alpha trading insights and other services to the ‘WEPE Army’, making it a meme coin with real utility.
After the recent success of fellow Pepe-themed presale coin, Pepe Unchained (which soared by over 600% on its launch), WEPE could be in for a bright future.
Wall Street Pepe currently sells at $0.000365 each, but that price will increase in just one day, making this the ideal time to purchase the token.
Crypto All-Stars (STARS)
Crypto All-Stars seeks to reshape meme coin staking for the users of its MemeVault, an upcoming cross-chain, multi-token protocol that will support tokens like DOGE, PEPE, SHIB, FLOKI, and more.
Investors have one day left to purchase STARS for $0.0016782 each, as the presale ends tomorrow.
Those staking their meme coins in the MemeVault will earn STARS passively, which could unite all meme coin holders under one roof and drive the price of STARS in the future.
However, investors don’t need to wait for its release, as Crypto All-Stars already offers a 144% staking APY for early backers.
Solaxy (SOLX)
Solaxy is a new meme coin presale that seeks to enhance the user experience on Solana by introducing a Layer 2 blockchain to improve its scalability and help traders avoid issues that plague Solana’s main chain during peak hours.
To enter the presale, investors can purchase SOLX using ETH, BNB, USDT, or a credit or debit card for $0.00157 each.
SOLX is now just $55,000 shy of raising $3 million in the past five days. Bringing together everything that made Pepe Unchained succeed and taking it to Solana might be enough to give Solaxy a real shot at making massive returns this Christmas season.
Best Token (BEST)
Best Wallet is arguably the fastest-growing Web3 crypto wallet, and it is now releasing its own token, Best Token, which will have a central role in its ecosystem and offer unique benefits to its holders.
The utility Best Token will offer to Best Wallet’s users is impressive, as they’ll enjoy lower transaction fees, alpha access to presales, unique bonuses in several online casinos, and more.
The presale is already hovering just below $5 million raised, and just ten hours remain before the price of Best Token, currently at $0.02325, increases again.
XRP (XRP)
XRP saw a tremendous soar over the past 30 days, which brought it to a new high this year at $2.84 after it entered this November priced at around $0.51.
Although XRP faced a downturn since it soared to $2.84 on December 3rd, the recent developments surrounding the token fuel bullish sentiment.
President Trump chose Paul Atkins to lead SEC, which may signal a turning point in the Ripple vs. SEC case, which could end in Ripple’s favor and potentially boost XRP’s value.
Additionally, Ripple released its stablecoin, RLUSD, on December 17th, which could see the demand for XRP explode in the upcoming weeks.
Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT)
PNUT has shocked the meme coin space with its meteoric rise in early November. Created in honor of Peanut, an Instagram-famous squirrel that had a controversial death, the token entered the market on November 4th and saw its market cap soar from a few million to $2.25 billion in just ten days.
PNUT faced a sharp drop since reaching its ATH of $2.47, and it is currently priced at $0.7812.
However, Coinbase added PNUT to its roadmap on December 11th, and the upcoming listing may fuel further gains for the meme coin.
