The Crypto Market Is Entering the Next Bull Cycle, and the First Quarter of 2025 Is Set to Be a Profitable Time for Traders

The crypto market is set for an exciting first quarter in 2025, with key players like Ripple (XRP) and Cardano (ADA) continuing to lead the pack and innovative new entrants emerging in the market.

Here’s a closer look at some of the cryptocurrencies that are expected to perform well in 2025:

Cardano (ADA)

Cardano has been attracting a lot of attention from traders and investors lately due to the steep bullish trend that is still pushing prices up. Since bouncing back against $1 on Wednesday, ADA is now looking on trend to break new highs in light of recent events, ongoing market interest, and positive macroeconomic indicators.

Cardano price shows massive potential, surging from $0.89 to $1 in a few days. Investment advisory crypto ADA jumped 15% to its weekly low with the increased market speculations of President-elect Donald Trump supporting digital currencies. This momentum indicates ADA could be on its way to testing the $1.20 zone, and if the trend continues, the price could head toward the $1.50 level.

Ripple’s XRP

Ripple’s XRP has recently grabbed the world’s attention as it has skyrocketed an incredible 500% over the last three months benefitting from the increased market sentiment and trading volume. XRP token surged more than 50% this month, trading above $3 and cementing its spot as the third biggest digital asset by market capitalization.

The XRP token is up for grabs again after a brief consolidation period. A technical formation known as a ‘bullish pennant’ has been spotted on XRP’s chart, indicating a potential continuation of the uptrend. Other cryptocurrencies, like Cardano, have also displayed similar patterns, which may bode well for XRP’s price movements.

IOTA

One of the most innovative cryptocurrencies around, IOTA, with its Tangle technology is expected to perform a massive rise this year. As the “rebased” upgrade is scheduled to roll out soon, IOTA is preparing to introduce features that will revolutionize its network and is expected to cause the price to rise by 84% to a maximum of $ 0.6270 in December.

The upcoming rebase upgrade will boost IOTA as a project. For a long time, the platform had some constraints that hindered the creation of projects on the platform. Some of the features that the upgrade seeks to incorporate include smart contracts that can handle at least thousands of transactions in a second. Such improvements are likely to greatly enhance the value and use of the network.
