The long-awaited Santa Rally seems to have come to a premature end – but you’ve still got the Christmas bonus burning a hole in your pocket.
With Bitcoin finishing down last week for the first time since early November, investors are consolidating their positions. But where should you drop some USD if you have a little free pocket change and want to buy the dip?
While the slight downturn is not quite the Christmas gift we’re looking for – the market remains strong, up 100% in total market cap over a year ago.
And with a pro-crypto US government about to take the reins, there’s plenty of potential out there, especially in the altcoin space. That’s why we’ve rounded up the five 5 low-cap coins you shouldn’t underestimate as 2025 draws to a close.
Solaxy – The Solana Upgrade You Always Wanted
More than a mere meme, Solaxy ($SOLX) is a coin with real utility, and aims to solve the problem some people have experienced with the Solana platform.
Solana – which staged a successful comeback in the latter half of 2024 – is widely considered faster and more reliable than Ethereum.
But that doesn’t mean it’s as fast or as reliable as it could be. That’s where $SOLX comes in.
The Solaxy project bills itself as the first-ever Solana Layer-2. The $SOLX token offers lucrative staking in the early stages, and the project has already reached $4.6M in presale.
$SOLX is also multi-chain, so it blends the speed and scalability of Solana Layer 2 with the increased scalability of Ethereum.
Currently, 1 SOLX = $0.001576 in the presale, but the price is set to go up soon.
iDEGEN – AI-Powered Crypto Degen Trading
AI is what you make of it.
So what if you made it a crypto-obsessed, degen-trading, memecoin-loving blockchain addict?
That’s exactly what iDEGEN is — a blank-slate AI created without existing restraints or guardrails and set loose on the crypto Twitterverse, or is that Xverse? In any event, every time someone tweets at or responds to iDEGEN, it responds – and it learns.
The idea of an AI degen that’s even more addicted to shitcoins than we are seems to have its appeal; iDEGEN released a V2 last week and instantly saw a boost in presales to over $8M.
The project is attracting a lot of press, and going through the X feed is a treat. Also, who says AI can’t be used to your advantage?
Wall Street Pepe – Green Frog Vibes, Wall Street Smarts
$WEPE relies on some simple math.
Take one (1) OG Pepe the frog, add one (1) Wall Street hedge investor type, and get two (2) winning ideas: a savvy investment community and $PEPE memecoin chops.
With the tagline ‘Trade like $PEPE, buy $WEPE,’ Wall Street Pepe is smashing records in its presale and looks set for sustained success.
$WEPE already has $35M raised with weeks to go in its presale period. The token looks set to emulate and even top the success of the original Pepecoin and the recent Pepe Unchained memecoins.
1 $WEPE = $0.0003653, at least until the next price increase.
Vantard – Diversify with a Memecoin Portfolio
Vantard wants to make crypto investing cool. And easy. And profitable.
The presale, still in its early stages, is showing signs of promise, with nearly $1M raised so far.
Vantard offers an investment portfolio of memecoins as a way to supercharge return on investment in the highly volatile – but highly lucrative – memecoin sector.
It’s a unique approach, offering time-poor investors an easy way to invest in a curated selection of the top memecoins, all through one token, the provocatively named, $VTARD.
Dogizen – Be First with a Telegram Gaming ICO
Telegram gaming (and memecoin investing, and igaming, and so much more) took off in 2024. In fact, Telegram’s own token, $TON, also made waves.
Now, Dogizen aims to be the first Telegram ICO.
The first of anything is always exciting, and Dogizen looks set to further bridge the gap between Telegram’s millions of users and the growing number of crypto investors.
Dogizen has also been rumored to be in the running for a Binance listing, which is sure to add to the $2.4M raised in the presale so far.
Purchase Dogizen tokens for $0.000081 before the next stage of the presale.
Santa: Delivering Memecoin Winners for Christmas?
While there’s no guarantee with memecoins, we think it’s a good idea to keep an eye on these 4 coins – Santa might be leaving a crypto winner under your tree.
That said, this is not investment advise. You need to do your own research and make sure that you’ve got a clear head before making any investment.
