Key Takeaways
After a standout in July that saw Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Solana (SOL) notch huge gains, traders are asking the obvious question: Can these cryptos extend this momentum into August 2025?
Bullish on-chain signals, technical breakouts, and renewed market optimism fueled July’s rally. But with macro uncertainties and altcoin rotation in play, the path ahead may not be as straightforward as the past month’s surge.
In this outlook, CCN breaks down key technical setups and market catalysts for ETH, XRP, and SOL, revealing what lies ahead for their prices this month.
In July, ETH posted one of its strongest gains of the year. Within the same month, Ethereum’s price rose from $2,410 to $3,889 amid increasing calls for $4,000.
While Ethereum has seen a brief pullback, the technical setup suggests it could be primed for a rebound in August. On the daily chart, ETH has carved out a bull flag.
This formation typically signals trend consolidation before another push higher. If ETH can hold key support and break above the flag’s upper boundary, it could set its sights on fresh monthly highs.
Besides that, the green line of the Supertrend is below ETH, indicating strong support. If the cryptocurrency sustains this momentum, the price might rise to $4,105.
This prediction also aligns with that of Ray Youssef, CEO of crypto exchange NoOnes.
“Technically, ETH is showing resilient technical strength. By holding above the $3,750 breakout zone, Ether is showing that bulls are not in a hurry to take profits and believe that there is still significant room for another phase of price discovery. If buyers can maintain this momentum above $3,750, the next real test will come at the resistance in the $4,100 range,” Youssef told CCN.
However, Youssef warned that Donald Trump tariffs could affect this and trigger high volatility.
Looking at the chart again, Ethereum could rally toward $5,785 in the long run if broader market conditions remain bullish. A sustained breakout from its current bull flag would reinforce this upside scenario.

Conversely, ETH risks breaking below $3,523 if selling pressure intensifies, a key support level. In a highly bearish case, the cryptocurrency could slide further to around $3,066, erasing much of its recent gains.
XRP was one of the top altcoins that reached a new all-time high in July. During that period, its price rose by over 40% amid rising demand and positive news about the cryptocurrency.
However, at press time, XRP has dropped below $3. From a technical perspective, the 4-hour chart shows that XRP’s price has formed a double-bottom pattern, which is a bullish pattern.
In addition, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) has held its ground above the zero signal line, which indicates that bears are not yet in control.

If this trend continues, XRP’s price might bounce to $3.67. It could also hit $4 by August. On the contrary, if bears outpace bulls, the cryptocurrency could slide to $2.32.
Unlike XRP, Solana’s price fell short of retesting its all-time high last month. Still, the altcoin logged an impressive milestone by surpassing $200 for the first time in months.
Now, on the daily chart, SOL has carved out an inverse head and shoulders pattern — a bullish reversal formation that signals the end of a downtrend and the start of a fresh leg higher.
If SOL can break decisively above the pattern’s neckline with rising volume, it could open the door for a sustained rally in August. Besides that, SOL has formed a bullish divergence as the CMF is above zero amid the recent price decline.

Should this trend remain the same, SOL might bounce to $247.71 in August 2025.
However, a lack of demand for the cryptocurrency might invalidate this prediction and lead the cryptocurrency to hit $138.05.
