Although the cryptocurrency market remains volatile, the sector is still viewed as bullish, with expectations of continued capital inflows in the coming months. Several digital assets are well-positioned to reach record levels, including potentially achieving a market capitalization of $200 billion by 2026. To this end, Finbold has identified the following assets with the strongest potential to hit this milestone. XRP XRP has been one of the best-performing assets in recent months and is edging closer to the $200 billion market cap threshold. At press time, XRP was trading at $2.80 with a market capitalization of $167.29 billion, securing its place as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency. XRP seven-day price chart.

Analysts believe that a potential XRP exchange-traded fund ( ETF ) could be a decisive catalyst, mirroring the success of Bitcoin ( BTC ) and Ethereum ETFs . Approval of such a product would give traditional investors easier access to XRP, boosting both liquidity and inflows. Price forecasts for 2026 remain optimistic, with projections ranging between $5.80 and $8.00, depending on market conditions. At these levels, XRP’s market cap would comfortably surpass $200 billion. Solana (SOL) Solana ( SOL ) is currently trading at $202.63 with a market capitalization of $109.65 billion, ranking as the sixth-largest cryptocurrency. SOL seven-day price chart.

Analysts expect Solana’s market cap to more than double by 2026, potentially exceeding $200 billion. A possible Solana ETF is also under discussion among industry experts, which could accelerate institutional adoption and replicate the inflows seen in other major assets. With steady ecosystem growth, high developer activity, and rising institutional participation, Solana is widely regarded as one of the strongest blockchain contenders to challenge Ethereum’s dominance in the smart contract space.
