Bitcoin’s price has become highly volatile after briefly breaking above the $107,000 mark today. Although that move set new local highs, BTC then dipped by 5% to around $102,000—but market sentiment remains firmly bullish for now. Many traders are using this drop as a prime opportunity to accumulate BTC at a discount, with a very short-term double-bottom pattern playing out on the hourly chart.

On the other hand, Ethereum (ETH) plunged from $2,700 (last week) to about $2,300 before starting to stabilize this morning, causing concern among altcoin holders. The biggest alts are still showing strength, with XRP holding near $2.3 after recent news about the CME launching XRP futures contracts. Traders are also optimistic about Solana’s performance in Q2 and Q3, due to growing expectations of a spot SOL ETF approval in 2025.

Beyond individual developments, most market commentators anticipate multiple ETF approvals (for Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and more) over the coming months. These approvals could open the door to a fresh wave of capital inflows, especially from institutional buyers and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

With many utility-focused altcoins selling for a discount, this may be the ideal window for savvy investors to buy them before a full-fledged market recovery.

Below, we’ve ranked five high-upside altcoins to buy in the current dip.

BTC Bull Token

The first altcoin on our list is BTC Bull Token (BTCBULL), which directly ties its future to Bitcoin’s performance. If you believe BTC will continue its bull run due to positive factors like growing ETF inflows, BTCBULL provides a unique way to ride that upside more effectively.

Whenever Bitcoin hits specific price milestones ($150,000 and $200,000, for example), BTCBULL holders will receive actual BTC airdrops. Moreover, when BTC soars to $250,000 for the first time, BTC Bull Token will distribute an airdrop of additional BTCBULL tokens, equal to 10% of its total supply.

Currently, BTCBULL is priced at $0.00252 in its presale and has already raised $6 million. The token’s design caters to true Bitcoin believers, effectively layering a new reward system on top of BTC’s expected bull run.

Additionally, buyers can stake BTCBULL during the presale and earn a 69% APY. The team has allocated 10% of the token supply for staking rewards, which will vest over two years post-launch.

BTC Bull Token also features structured token burns at the $125,000, $175,000, and $225,000 BTC price points. Each burn will reduce the circulating supply and potentially accelerate price momentum for BTCBULL.

If Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory follows bullish expectations and keeps heading for new all-time highs, BTC Bull Token could become a high-upside value multiplier.

Solaxy

Solaxy (SOLX) is generating a huge buzz among altcoin enthusiasts, mainly because it intends to solve one of Solana’s most pressing challenges: network slowdowns under high load.

As the first-ever Layer 2 solution for the Solana blockchain, Solaxy will use rollup-like architecture to tackle congestion. By batching Solana transactions to be processed away from the L1 chain, Solaxy will preserve lightning-fast speeds and ultra-low fees on the mainnet.

Solaxy’s presale is turning out to be one of the hottest crypto events of this year, raising nearly $38  million in funding—with around $1 million in fresh capital arriving in just the past week.

Solaxy’s recent testnet release includes a working Solaxy and Solana bridge and a dedicated block explorer, signaling real progress that adds substance to the hype. SOLX tokens will power the Layer 2 ecosystem’s transactions, and offer governance rights to their holders.

The token is currently priced at $0.00173 for early buyers, and the Solaxy presale ends in about 27 days. Early buyers can also stake SOLX tokens for up to 106% APY, with over 10.8 billion tokens already staked on Solaxy’s portal.

Market commentators see Solaxy as the final puzzle piece that will fulfil Solana’s ambition to become one of the most reliable blockchains. A recent whale purchase of around $400,000 worth of SOLX in a single transaction has further highlighted the project’s potential.

XRP

Another high-potential altcoin on our list is Ripple’s XRP. It’s a cryptocurrency designed to quickly and cheaply transfer money across countries and borders. This is why banks and financial institutions worldwide use XRP to speed up international payments, reducing waiting times and costs compared to traditional systems.

XRP broke above its 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) earlier this year, confirming a bullish shift in its long-term trend. It briefly touched $2.60 in May (its highest level in two months) before consolidating around $2.3.

XRP/USDT Chart on TradingView

Ripple Labs has fought a multi-year battle with the SEC, and scored significant victories in the past few months. As a result, many exchanges have relisted XRP—and the broader market is becoming more comfortable with its regulatory status. Moreover, the CME Group recently launched XRP futures, showing strong institutional interest in the altcoin.

From a fundamental standpoint, Ripple has continued to expand its On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) services globally. The company’s most recent push is into the Middle East, where it partnered with two new UAE companies to adopt Ripple’s cross-border payment solutions.

Many analysts predict that a spot XRP ETF could be approved this year, potentially opening the floodgates for billions in fresh inflows. As XRP still trades around 32% below its all-time high, it’s a solid choice with ample room to grow.

Sui

Sui (SUI) entered the crypto scene as a next-generation Layer 1 blockchain, built by Mysten Labs—a team of engineers who previously worked on Meta’s Diem project. Using the Move programming language, Sui aims for exceptionally high throughput and near-instant finality—critical features for heavy-duty Web3 apps like complex DeFi protocols and advanced on-chain games.

As investors embraced this platform’s potential, SUI was one of the few altcoins to hold key support levels during Q1’s market-wide downtrend. After surging to its all-time high of $5.35 in January, SUI retraced but held near $2.00 in April.

Lately, it’s climbed back to around $3.70—maintaining a higher-low structure indicative of growing bullish strength. Mysten Labs has also begun partnering with gaming studios, and recently acquired Parasol to help roll out Web3-native games on Sui.

Traders who believe in the future of immersive, high-speed blockchain experiences might find Sui particularly compelling. As the market regains momentum and capital rotates into innovative Layer 1s, Sui’s mix of robust technology, rising adoption, and a strong developer base could position it for significant gains.

Best Wallet Token

Best Wallet Token (BEST) is the native token of a fast-evolving Web3 mobile app called Best Wallet. The app is designed as a one-stop platform for multi-chain storage, trading, and staking. It supports 60+ blockchains and a cross-chain DEX aggregator, making it highly versatile for users who hold assets across different ecosystems.

One of Best Wallet’s standout features is an in-app portal that showcases new presale projects. Holding BEST can grant VIP access to these tokens before they hit broader markets.

BEST token holders can also enjoy lower transaction fees and earn a higher APY of up to 116% on staking.

The BEST token sale has raised over $12.4 million thus far, and the presale price is $0.025045 for a limited time before the next increase.

In an era when self-custody is increasingly important, a growing number of crypto enthusiasts could shift to Best Wallet (which already has 250,000 monthly active users). As a result, BEST tokens could generate a promising upside—especially when the broader altcoin market recovers again.
