3 Altcoins I've Got My Eye On in 2026

There's more to the crypto market than just Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) . While these two account for a combined 70% of the total value of the crypto market, there are literally hundreds of high-risk, high-upside cryptocurrencies that have the potential to outperform the two market bellwethers.
Three cryptocurrencies that I have my eye on in 2026 are XRP (CRYPTO: XRP) , Solana (CRYPTO: SOL) , and Chainlink (CRYPTO: LINK) . All three have the potential to outperform Bitcoin and Ethereum this year to deliver outsized gains to investors.
In many ways, XRP is an obvious pick. It has gone on enormous rallies in the recent past, including an epic rally from November 2024 to January 2025 that saw XRP explode in price from $0.50 to $3.40. That's a staggering 580% gain in just 60 days!
