XRP Hits $3.65, But These 3 Altcoins Are Outperforming It!

Published by
Rizwan Ansari and Sohrab Khawas

XRP recently made headlines by smashing its previous all-time high and reaching $3.65. After years of waiting, the XRP community finally saw the breakout they had been hoping for. In just seven days, the token has jumped over 33%, showing that the bulls are back in control.

But here’s the surprise, XRP isn’t the top performer this week. Another top 3 coin has stolen the spotlight, outperforming XRP’s performance. 

Stellar (XLM) Leads the Pack

Stellar (XLM) is grabbing attention with a massive rally this month. Over the past week, XLM surged more than 62%, far outpacing XRP’s gains. It’s now trading around $0.49, up over 365% in a year.

XLM’s rise is fueled by growing retail and institutional interest, strong partnerships, and real-world use cases. Its role in asset tokenization and hosting PayPal’s PYUSD stablecoin adds even more credibility. Analysts are watching closely as XLM consolidates near $0.50, with resistance levels at $0.56–$0.60.

Bonk (BONK): The Meme Coin on Fire

Bonk (BONK), a meme token on the Solana network, is another standout. In just a week, BONK has jumped by about 53%, leaving XRP and many other altcoins behind.

After hitting a recent high of $0.00004022, BONK has slightly pulled back to $0.0000357, but its market cap is still impressive at $2.89 billion.

With institutional attention growing and key resistance at $0.00004676 in sight, bulls see further upside if market sentiment remains positive

Pudgy Penguins (PENGU): NFT to Token Superstar

Pudgy Penguins’ token, PENGU, is also making waves. It has soared nearly 229% in just one month, and 43.5% in a week, crushing XRP’s performance over the same period. Trading volume peaked at $1.18 billion in 24 hours, showing strong market excitement.

If PENGU holds support between $0.025–$0.027, analysts believe it could rally toward $0.033–$0.040 soon.

Other Coins In The Race

Other coins like Hedera (HBAR) and Algorand (ALGO) are also gaining over 40%, but none can match Stellar’s explosive move. For now, XRP may have the hype, but if XLM keeps this pace, it could become the true star of the show.

For now, XRP may have the spotlight for its breakout, but if Stellar keeps this pace, it could soon become the real star of the show.
