October 2025 was a challenging month for Bitcoin, which had previously experienced a relatively substantial period but had now broken that trend. According to analysts, Bitcoin has lost money in October for the first time since 2018, falling by at least 5% over the month.
Many investors are looking outside the typical safe bets in light of that shake-up, focusing on cryptocurrencies that may have potential for growth as the market as a whole takes a deep breath. Here are three tokens getting attention right now.
While most eyes were on the usual suspects, the presale for Little Pepe (LILPEPE) has been quietly surging. At the time of writing, it’s in Stage 13, priced at $0.0022 per token. The project has reportedly raised around $27.4 million and sold approximately 16.64 billion tokens. Stage 13 is 96.47% filled. These are real numbers. What makes it stand out: LILPEPE is not just a meme coin. It’s built on a next-gen Layer 2 EVM chain, offering ultra-low fees and fast finality. It has also gone through a CertiK audit and is listed on CoinMarketCap. On top of that, the chatter online among memecoin fans and communities shows one clear sign: between June and August 2025, LILPEPE peaked higher in ChatGPT‑5 memecoin question volume than legacy favourites like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu or Pepe Coin (PEPE). That kind of interest matters in the meme‑world. Here’s the highlight: Early investors (Stage 1) are already up 120% on their investment. If you buy now at $0.0022 and the launch price reaches $0.0030 (the price cited by the team), that’s a potential gain of 36.36%. With the presale still live, you’re getting in before the crowds. Given the strong presale momentum, listing readiness, community buzz, and the infrastructure layer behind it, a conservative price target could be around $0.01 soon after listing, if volume and exposure catch up. Some projections even suggest $0.50- $3 by 2030 in a best-case scenario. If you’re looking for a high‑risk, high‑hype opportunity with community at its heart, Little Pepe ticks those boxes.
After declining from its October peak, it is currently trading at about $2.30. Investors are keeping a close eye on it, as institutional demand through XRP-linked spot ETFs and Ripple Prime, the company’s institutional trading platform, is imminent. According to some analysts, XRP could reach $3.80-$4.20 by 2026 if these factors materialize. Having a token with institutional channels, such as XRP, makes sense in a world where macroeconomic risks (think rate cuts, regulatory uncertainty, and global economic slowdown) pull cryptocurrency prices. If institutions truly begin to pile in, the downside could be limited, and the upside could be more meaningful.
On the other hand, ADA is trading under pressure, with the token currently near $0.62- $0.65, and recent on-chain signs suggest weaker momentum. According to some forecasts, ADA may remain stuck between $0.55 and $0.84 for the remainder of 2025, unless a significant price movement occurs. But therein lies the opportunity: if you believe in Cardano’s long‑term roadmap (smart contracts, DeFi, staking, etc) and you accept the risk that the near term might still be shaky, ADA offers a lower entry point. In a shaken crypto market where Bitcoin did its worst October in years, buying a platform token like ADA at a discount could pay off, provided the platform execution improves.
If you’re looking to act now, the most aggressive play here is LILPEPE via its presale. With a price of $0.0022, a potential launch price of $0.0030, and substantial upside if sentiment and listing go well, the risk-reward is tilted toward reward (but, of course, with higher risk). For more balanced portfolios, pairing LILPEPE with exposure to XRP and ADA gives you a mix of early‑mover plus foundation tokens.
