- SUI: Could bounce off $3.32 support; $5+ target still on the table.
- LINK: Eyes on $13.50–$11.00 support; long-term trend remains bullish.
- XLM: Needs to hold $0.33 for another leg up; $0.60 possible if demand returns.
August’s lookin’ like it might not be so quiet after all. While Bitcoin’s been wobbling, some altcoins—namely SUI, Chainlink (LINK), and Stellar (XLM)—are catching fresh attention. These three have some real momentum behind them, and investors are watching for any signs of breakout moves. Even with recent dips, their fundamentals are still talkin’, loud and clear.
Let’s break down what might be brewing with these three in August 2025.
SUI: Pullback or Just Gearing Up Again?
SUI had a solid July—like, really solid. It broke out from that falling wedge and hit $4.30 before the profit takers showed up and dragged it back toward $3.32. On the surface, that looks like a cool-off… but zoom out and it’s still up over 600% this year. Not bad for a coin that was sitting at $0.47 just last August.
Adding to that, news just dropped that Mill City Ventures III (a Nasdaq-listed firm, mind you) is looking to raise half a billion bucks to build up its SUI treasury. That’s not something you see every day.
If SUI holds that $3.32 range—or dips to its 200-day EMA and finds buyers—it could bounce back up to test $4.30 again. And if things go well? $4.85 or even $5.36 isn’t out of the question. This dip might be just that… a dip.
Chainlink: Holding On or Slipping Further?
Chainlink’s had a rough couple weeks. It tried to crack $20 and got slapped right back down. As of now, it’s hovering near $16, and short-term supports are getting tested, hard. The 20-day and 50-day EMAs? Broken. Now all eyes are on the 200-day EMA.
If it doesn’t hold? LINK could be heading for the $13.50 or even $11.00 zones—places where buyers might step back in. Still, there’s another way this could go: if LINK bounces from the 200-day EMA, it could head back up toward $20, then maybe even $25 or $40 if things heat up.
The big picture? Still bullish. The price’s been tracking in an ascending broadening wedge, which tends to lean bullish. Plus, LINK’s had no shortage of new partnerships and growing adoption lately. That long-term setup? It’s still intact.
Stellar: Can XLM Light It Up Again?
XLM had a killer July, rallying nearly 65% and sliding into the #12 spot in crypto rankings. There’s even chatter it might break into the top 10 if it keeps this pace. Technically, things looked great—broke out of a wedge, flew to $0.50, then… pulled back.
Now it’s beneath the 20-day EMA and heading toward that $0.33 support. If buyers show up there, this could just be a cooldown before another run. A bounce could push it back to $0.50 and possibly to $0.60—or beyond—by late August.
But if XLM can’t hold $0.33, well, things might get messier. Still, with adoption ticking upward and new projects on the Stellar network gaining ground, it’s not wise to count it out just yet.
