Google AI predicts: XRP will big pump 400% by the end of the year, CZ's investment stimulates ASTER to double surge.

Google AI predicts that the prices of XRP, ADA, and ASTER will significantly rise by the end of 2025. XRP is currently around $2.41, and Google AI forecasts it could rise to as much as $13 by the end of the year, an increase of about 439%. Aster, supported by the former Chinese billionaire CZ, is predicted to achieve a return of 4 to 5 times within the next two months.

Ripple's XRP seems to be one of the most promising candidates in Google's AI model, with predictions showing that its price could rise to between 5.85 and 13 dollars by the end of the year, an increase of about 439% from the current price of 2.41 dollars. This XRP prediction is not unfounded but is based on multiple catalysts.

Earlier this year, after XRP achieved a decisive victory in its lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), market confidence in Ripple soared, driving the price of XRP to a new seven-year high of $3.65 in July. Over the past 12 months, XRP has surged by as much as 378%, significantly outperforming Bitcoin and Ethereum. This outperformance indicates that XRP is attracting capital flows independent of the broader market.

Ripple has launched the RLUSD stablecoin, and the interaction between CEO Brad Garlinghouse and President Trump has positioned the company as a pioneer in the regulatory space, enhancing its appeal to both retail and institutional investors. As a regulated stablecoin, RLUSD provides institutions with a compliant tool for trading and settling on the XRPL, which will significantly increase the trading volume and activity on the XRPL.

The technical chart of XRP continues to show several bullish flag patterns before 2025, indicating a potential breakout by the end of the year. A bullish flag is a typical trend continuation pattern, where the price often continues the previous upward trend when it breaks upward through the upper boundary of the flag after a brief consolidation. If XRP can break through key resistance levels after several months of sideways consolidation, the $13 target price predicted by Google AI could be achievable before the end of the year.

Three Catalysts for XRP to Achieve Google AI Goals

ETF Approval: If the XRP spot ETF is approved, it will trigger a massive inflow of institutional funds.

Strategic Cooperation: Ripple's collaboration with more banks and payment institutions is being implemented.

Clear Regulation: The United States has introduced favorable cryptocurrency regulatory provisions.

If catalysts such as ETF approvals, Ripple achieving more strategic partnerships, or the U.S. introducing clear cryptocurrency regulatory guidelines occur, then the $13 price target predicted by Google AI could be achievable by the end of the year. The increase from the current price to $13 would mean about a 5.4 times pump, which is not uncommon in a cryptocurrency bull market, especially considering that XRP surged from $0.006 to $3.84 during the 2017 bull market.

Cardano Q4 Explodes, Google AI Bullish on $7

Cardano (ADA) remains one of the most powerful DeFi networks in development, establishing a reputation as a top challenger to Ethereum with its thriving developer ecosystem and growing suite of decentralized applications. Cardano was created by Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson and is known for its academically peer-reviewed framework that emphasizes scalability, sustainability, and formal verification.

Cardano has a market cap of approximately $21 billion, holding an important position among leading DeFi projects, although it still lags behind Solana and Ethereum in overall adoption rates. Analysis from Google AI suggests that ADA could rise to $7 by the new year, a staggering increase of 1100% from its current price of about $0.58.

If investor sentiment strengthens before the end of the year, Google's AI model indicates that ADA could be trading around $3 by the end of 2025, and if a full bull market occurs, it may exceed the historical high of $3.09 set in 2021. While this prediction is aggressive, considering the technological advancements and ecosystem expansion of Cardano, it is not entirely impossible.

Cardano launched several important upgrades in 2025, including the Hydra protocol to enhance network throughput, Plutus V3 to strengthen smart contract capabilities, and the Midnight sidechain related to the tokenization of real-world assets. These technological advancements provide Cardano with the hard power to compete with Solana and Ethereum.

Additionally, the real-world use cases of Cardano in Africa and South America are increasing, including an educational certification system in collaboration with the Ethiopian government and an agricultural supply chain tracking project in Tanzania. These real-world adoptions provide support for the intrinsic value of ADA, making it more than just a speculative tool.

ASTER and CZ Association Triggers 9% Daily Pump

ASTER is a newly launched decentralized exchange token that has garnered significant attention in the DeFi space. The project was formed by the merger of Astherus and APX Finance at the end of 2024, officially launching in September 2025, and listed on Binance the following month. Aster is a next-generation perpetual contract decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the BNB Chain, supported by a venture capital firm previously associated with CZ, and offers spot and futures trading with leverage of up to 1001 times.

Its standout feature is the “trading for profit” model: users can use earning assets as collateral, thus enabling them to trade and make money simultaneously. This innovative mechanism is relatively rare in the DeFi space, allowing users to directly use assets that generate yields in DeFi protocols (such as liquidity mining rewards, staking returns, etc.) as collateral for perpetual contract trading, significantly enhancing capital efficiency.

In the past 24 hours, despite the overall decline in the cryptocurrency market with a market cap shrinkage of 3%, the price of ASTER soared by 9%. This counter-trend increase indicates that ASTER is attracting independent buying interest, possibly related to the spread predicted by Google AI, the fermentation of topics associated with CZ, and the increase in liquidity brought about by its listing on Binance.

Although ASTER is currently still in the early stages of issuance, making it difficult to determine its clear trend, the stock briefly broke through the downward channel after issuance due to the attention of large holders over the weekend. Subsequently, as traders took profits, the stock price fell again, but the neutral RSI indicator and the relatively new issuance time suggest that it is expected to reach a 4 to 5 times return target for Google AI within the next two months.

The association with CZ has brought additional attention to ASTER. Zhao Chang'e, as the founder of Binance, has a significant influence in the crypto community. Although CZ has stepped down as CEO of Binance, any project related to him will naturally attract attention. However, investors should also note that “association” does not imply direct endorsement or financial responsibility, and it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the project's actual technology and team background.

Macroeconomic environment supports Google's optimistic AI forecast

Despite the market remaining sluggish for most of October, optimism is still high due to the listing of Solana, Litecoin, and Hedera ETFs in the United States, as well as the Federal Reserve's recent 25 basis point rate cut. U.S. regulators continue to closely monitor cryptocurrencies, and concerns about inflation in the macroeconomic environment are easing, which has boosted the market's risk appetite.

These developments indicate that strong alternative coin performance will drive the next bull market cycle, possibly starting this year, with Google AI predicting that XRP, Cardano, and ASTER will be the frontrunners. The Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts mean a more accommodative liquidity environment, which is particularly favorable for risk assets, especially cryptocurrencies. Historically, periods of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve have often been accompanied by bull markets in the crypto space.

The successive listing of ETFs has provided institutional investors with a compliant investment channel. The successful launch of Solana, Litecoin, and Hedera ETFs has set a precedent for the future approval of XRP and Cardano ETFs. Once the ETFs of these mainstream cryptocurrencies are approved, it will trigger a wave of capital inflow similar to that following the launch of the Bitcoin ETF.

Risk Warning and Investment Strategy Suggestions

However, although Google AI's predictions are based on data models and historical patterns, there is no guarantee that they will be realized. The high volatility of the cryptocurrency market means that any prediction carries uncertainty. Investors should view these targets as possibilities rather than certainties and develop investment strategies based on their own risk tolerance.

For mature projects like XRP and Cardano, accumulating positions in batches and setting stop-losses is a prudent approach. For new projects like ASTER, due to the lack of historical data and the price discovery not yet completed, the risks are higher, and participation should only be with a very small position.
