The market is recovering as one of the worst months for crypto comes to an end. Heading into Christmas, we asked leading Perplexity AI for his predictions for XRP, Shiba Inu, and PEPE toward the end of 2025, and he delivered a dramatic outlook.
2025 is ending as a negative year for Bitcoin. At the time of writing, year-to-date performance shows BTC down more than 7%, starting the year near 99K and now looking likely to finish below that level.
Even so, the bigger picture stays constructive. Analysts still expect durable altcoins such as XRP, Shiba Inu, and PEPE to perform well over the long term. Once market conditions settle, each project could regain upward momentum, and below is how Google’s Gemini AI expects it to play out.
Ripple (XRP): Google’s Gemini AI Predicts a Parabolic Move For XRP
Google Gemini AI’s bullish projection suggests XRP bulls could see a 4 to 6x gain from the current level of $2.00 as we head into the new year.
This is mainly due to accelerated adoption and rapidly rising institutional interest as more ETFs continue to launch. The AI also mentions a potential supply shock as institutional volume begins outpacing retail speculation.
Source: XRPUSD / TradingViewXRP just tapped $2.00 again, its most important level to hold. The one time the chart slipped below it, things did not look good for XRP bulls. However, as long as the price holds above $1.90, the chart structure remains healthy.
The key breakout threshold is at $2.70, a former strong support level that recently flipped into resistance. Reclaiming this zone could confirm a breakout targeting an 80 percent upside move toward $3.70.
Shiba Inu And Pepe: Pepe Is Meme King, While Shiba Might Lag Behind
In 2026, Shiba Inu (SHIB) is positioned for a transformative year, driven by the Q2 rollout of a major privacy upgrade on its Shibarium Layer 2 network, integrating Zama’s Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) for fully confidential transactions.
AI predictions suggest Shiba Inu could delete a zero as we move into 2026. SHIB has been slowly rising after hitting its yearly low in November. The next target is the resistance at $0.00000910. If Shiba breaks above this level, it would signal a positive shift and the start of new bullish momentum.
However, Gemini also predicts a bear case in which Shiba fails to break the resistance and remains below it, or even moves lower if memecoin interest stays this weak.
The same can be said at PEPE, which is down -4% to $0.00000446, testing that key support again as the market dumps.
However, Gemini crowns it as the meme king and says it’s just resetting for a “Phase 2” expansion, targeting a bull run to $0.000018. Also saying it’s too big to fail and the primary leverage vehicle for Ethereum beta.
As shown in the chart, whenever PEPE created a wide dispersion from its 21 EMA on the 3D timeframe and then returned to test it, the low was already in.
Maxi Doge: The Meme Underdog Is Going for Its Biggest Breakout Yet
While XRP, Shiba Inu, and PEPE are all lining up for potential upside as AI models turn bullish on 2026, one newer memecoin is quietly building a wave of momentum of its own — Maxi Doge.
This Dogecoin-inspired, gym bro themed meme token has already become one of the fastest-growing presale projects of the year, and the numbers are getting hard for traders to ignore.
Maxi Doge has now raised more than $4.29 million, outperforming most new meme launches even in a weak market. The project leans heavily into culture rather than fake utility promises, a return to the roots that made DOGE and SHIB breakout stories in the first place.
One of the biggest selling points is token distribution. A massive 40% of all MAXI supply went directly to the public presale, no private rounds, no insider allocations, and no VC wallets waiting to dump. This reduces early sell pressure and gives regular buyers the dominant share of supply, something meme communities value highly.
With memecoins preparing for a potential resurgence in 2026 and major AI models predicting huge moves across the sector, Maxi Doge is emerging as one of the top early-stage coins positioned to benefit from the rotation. Many traders see it as the kind of asymmetric bet that can outperform when sentiment turns.
