The Bull Cases

Right off the bat, it’s evident that Crypto Tony is bullish on some of the most popular cryptocurrencies. His target for the market leader is at $250,000, which is essentially a 2x from the all-time high registered last week at roughly $124,500. Should BTC indeed reach such a subliminal price tag, its market cap would be close to $5 trillion, which would make it the second-biggest global asset after gold (at current rates).

Tony is also bullish on ETH, as he believes it could also do a 2x from its 2021 all-time high (almost $4,900) and peak at $10,000. For BNB, the high is similar ($1,800, which is also a 110% increase from the current ATH of $865).

So far, his predictions are pretty much aligned with each other, perhaps because these are three of the biggest digital assets, and they might have similar growth potential. Crypto Tony was a lot more bullish on SOL, though. He noted that Solana’s token could rocket to $1,000, which would be a 240% surge from its January ATH of $293 and a 450% pump from the current price of $180.

If DOGE is to reach Tony’s target of $2, it needs to increase the most. The OG meme coin now sits at $0.23, which would require a 770% jump to reach those levels (and 185% surge from the ATH of $0.73).

ADA at $0? No XRP?

Aside from these bullish targets, Crypto Tony said ADA will dump to $0 during this cycle. This is quite controversial, given the fact that Cardano has a huge following and its native token is the ninth-largest with a market cap of almost $34 billion.

ADA’s ATH was tapped in September 2021 at just over $3, and the asset now stands 70% away from it.

More controversy stirred from the fact that Crypto Tony failed even to mention XRP, which is the second-largest altcoin and has been among the top performers since the US elections last year. Recall that Ripple’s token traded below $0.6 at the time but skyrocketed to a new all-time high of over $3.6 in July 2025.

The XRP Army is also a big part of the overall crypto community, and they quickly questioned why Tony had missed the asset as a whole. However, there’s no response as of press time.
