How To Find 100x Altcoins In 2025: Complete Guide

"The caveat is that there are also niches that can be thought of as being native to each chain. In Ethereum's case, that's DeFi, which is part of why DeFi altcoins on Ethereum rallied alongside ETH when it pumped. Of course, the use of stable coins in DeFi was another contributing factor in the DeFi pump."

"This suggests that capital is likely to rotate into Salana's ecosystem after it's done playing in Ethereum's ecosystem."

"And now that altcoin season looks like it's finally around the corner, we believe that many of our altcoin picks could see similar returns to virtual very soon."

"Wouldn't you know, many meme coins on Salana started rallying the moment that Soul started pumping."

"niches like memecoins and AI have likely seen most of their gains in percentage terms for this cycle because many of the narratives within them already pumped a lot in 2024. To be clear, this doesn't mean that memecoins and AI cryptos won't rally. It just means they're likely to rally less compared to other niches."

"By contrast, you could argue that AI agents still haven't experienced a proper rally, especially now that new narratives are emerging around the fusion between AI agents and DeFi, known as DEF AI. Decentralized hedge funds and decentralized personal assistance could still become very big narratives."

"As a rule of thumb, an altcoin needs to have a market cap of less than $100 million to have a chance of hitting a 100x. That's because a 100x increase in a market cap of say 10 to20 million works out to just 1 to2 billion. Now, if you've been around since 2021, you'll know that there will be hundreds of cryptos that hit market caps in the singledigit billions at the peak. Right now, there's only about 80. This means there are likely to be dozens of altcoins that are currently less than $100 million that will reach market caps of $1 billion or more in the coming months."

"The altcoins with the most potential appear to exist primarily on Salana and base. And it makes perfect sense if you think about it. Salana and Bass are both fast, lowcost, and easily accessible chains."

"Ethereums and Salana's ecosystems are likely to remain dominant for the remainder of this cycle."

"To be clear, this doesn't mean that all coins in other ecosystems won't rally or can't 100x. It's almost guaranteed that there will be many, but the thing is that they will be much harder to find and the likelihood that they achieve astronomical gains will be much lower."

"Old coins with the closest connections to key players in Salana and basis ecosystems will probably outperform other altcoins that are similar."
