The cryptocurrency market is approaching the last full week of 2025. This is also the second-to-last weekend of the year. Since both Bitcoin and altcoins have been without a clear direction, external factors may act as catalysts in the coming days.
BeInCrypto has analyzed three such altcoins that offer interesting opportunities for investors this weekend.
Midnight (NIGHT)
NIGHT has risen to become the best-performing altcoin of the week, increasing by 61% since its launch. A strong initial push continues to attract speculative investors. The sharp rise indicates increased trading volume and interest in new, high-growth assets.
Investor interest is based on NIGHT's developmental relationships with Charles Hoskinson and the Cardano ecosystem through the Midnight blockchain. Currently, the token's market cap exceeds one billion dollars. NIGHT is trading around $0.064 and could rise above $0.065 and $0.075, aiming for an all-time high of $0.088.

The downside risks remain high around the new token. Early profit-taking can quickly reverse the trend. If selling pressure increases, NIGHT could drop towards $0.045. Such a move would wipe out fresh gains, invalidate the bullish scenario, and increase short-term volatility.
Pump.fun (PUMP)
PUMP has moved in the opposite direction to NIGHT, belonging to the weakest altcoins of the week. The token's price has dropped over 35% and is trading around $0.00197. Continued selling pressure indicates that sentiment is weak as investors reduce their exposure amid broader market uncertainty.
Despite the loss, technical indicators may signal a potential recovery. The relative strength index has moved into oversold territory, suggesting that selling pressure may be waning. If buyers activate, PUMP could recover above $0.00212 and grow towards the resistance level of $0.00242.
The recovery scenario, however, remains fragile. Continued selling pressure and lack of buying interest could deepen the decline. If the price falls below the current level, PUMP might drop to the support level of $0.00171. In that case, the bullish outlook would be invalidated and downside risks would increase.
Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
Bitcoin Cash rose 8% today due to target-specific events, not broader Bitcoin movements. The price rally was sparked by speculation about ShapeShift founder Erik Voorhees potentially exchanging 4,619 ETH (worth $13.42 million) for 24,950 BCH from a wallet that had been unused for nine years, which once again caught market attention.
Erik Voorhees, however, confirmed that the wallet does not belong to him and he does not own BCH. Nevertheless, the price rally caused by speculation may continue over the weekend.
Continued investments from investors, confirmed by a rising Chaikin Money Flow indicator, support the bullish scenario. If demand remains, BCH could rise above $593 and advance towards $624, indicating short-term recovery strength and increased confidence.
Downside risks persist if sentiment wanes. If the $593 level is not reached, Bitcoin Cash may remain below $600. In this case, a weakening of market demand could bring BCH down to $555 or lower, supporting consolidation and invalidating short-term bullish expectations.
