Solana, XRP, and MemeToro: Top Altcoins to Watch This Week

Solana (SOL), XRP, and MemeToro are in the spotlight this week for different reasons. Solana is trading near $118.36 after a 68% two-month rally, with its next resistance level at $124. The network's Alpenglow upgrade, which aims to reduce settlement times from 13 seconds to 150 milliseconds, has deployed on a second public test network.

The upgrade could make Solana more attractive to builders and users, potentially boosting its price. Meanwhile, XRP is holding steady near $1.60 after posting back-to-back daily gains, despite the delay of the XRP Ledger's Batch Upgrade. The token's wider use case is tied to remittance and payment infrastructure.

MemeToro, an early BNB Chain launchpad project using AI and public smart contracts, has passed $155K in its Stage 8 presale. It's building a new memecoin ecosystem with an open-source platform for creating and discovering trend-led launches.
