Market Tension Builds as Q4 Begins
Q4 sees cautious crypto optimism. Ethereum (ETH) hit $4,000 due to institutional inflows and upgrades. XRP nears $3, fueled by whale accumulation and ETF tailwinds despite volatility.
MAGAX, an AI-powered meme-to-earn token, has raised over $97,000 in presale, with a 153x ROI potential. This contrasts with established cryptocurrencies, showcasing a bet on virality and AI incentives.
Ethereum Price Prediction: Can ETH Break $5,000 in Q4?
Ethereum is trading around $4,111.63, up 2.7% in the last 24 hours. The network continues to attract large capital flows, with nearly $1 billion in ETH purchased by digital asset treasuries this week, including from BitMine Immersion. That demand has tightened supply, with long-term holders removing tokens from circulation.

Despite resistance at the 50-day EMA, Ethereum (ETH) shows potential to surpass $5,000 in Q4, driven by scaling upgrades and staking rewards.
Ethereum, unlike XRP, relies on its decentralized validator and smart contract ecosystem, powering DeFi and NFTs. Its scalability roadmap aims for 100,000 TPS, attracting institutional interest.
XRP Faces Whale Moves and Regulatory Tailwinds
XRP is up 4.27% to $2.88 but can’t break $3.00, staying between $2.86 and $2.91. Resistance is at $3.20-$3.64, with support at $2.71.

Fundamentals are more bullish than the charts suggest. The March 2025 SEC settlement, which confirmed XRP is not a security on public exchanges, removed a cloud of regulatory uncertainty. XRP ETFs are launching, leading to whale accumulation and potential price surges above $3.50 if high volume breaks $3, despite low retail interest.

MAGAX Presale Gains Momentum With 153× ROI Potential
MAGAX, a meme-to-earn challenger, has raised over $97,000, selling 430 million tokens at $0.000293 in Stage 2 of its presale, nearing its $115,647 goal. Ethereum and XRP are pursuing technical breakouts.
Unlike typical meme coins, MAGAX integrates AI-powered meme detection via Loomint’s algorithms to reward creators and promoters when content goes viral. The project has passed a CertiK audit with zero critical issues, thereby boosting credibility among investors who are wary of security risks.
MAGAX is a deflationary meme asset with DAO governance and referral bonuses. Early investors could see a 153x ROI if it reaches the final presale stage of $0.015.
Q4 Outlook: Majors vs. Meme-to-Earn Challenger
Ethereum (ETH) and XRP begin Q4 with strong narratives. ETH benefits from institutional investment, clear scalability, and consistent demand. XRP sees significant whale accumulation, regulatory clarity, and potential for ETFs to boost adoption.
MAGAX combines memes, AI, and decentralized incentives. Its presale offers investors a chance for significant returns at a low cost, appealing to those who believe in its potential for virality.
Ethereum and XRP may rally in Q4, but those chasing outsized returns are already moving early.
Don’t watch from the sidelines. Secure your MAGAX tokens before Stage 3 begins.
