The first weekend of 2026 could see a continuation of the strong token rally throughout this week. Altcoins that are influenced by external markets also hold potential profits as long as they continue to focus on investor support.
BeInCrypto has identified three such altcoins that could enjoy further gains next weekend.

Pepe (Pepe)
PEPE became the top-performing meme coin this week after unexpected social momentum. Cryptocurrency exchange OKX shared a new year frog meme commonly linked to PEPE. The post sparked renewed interest, caused a spike in prices, and highlighted the token’s sensitivity to cultural and social signals.
PEPE price rose 28% in the past 24 hours, reinforcing a new uptrend. Parabolic SAR confirms that bullish momentum is increasing. PEPE, which is trading around $0.00000517, could break above $0.00000544 and extend its rally towards $0.00000583 if buying pressure persists.

Profit-taking remains a short-term risk after PEPE hits a six-week high. If selling increases, the price could return to $0.00000491. A further break below this level could see PEPE decline towards $0.00000460, invalidating the bullish setup.

Canton (CC)
Canton prices extended the strong rally that began in mid-December. The altcoin hit a new high in the past 24 hours, hitting an intraday high of $0.177. Sustained demand and positive momentum continue to support price increases.
Chaikin Money Flow shows that the influx of investors into the canton continues. Support from CC holders remains solid, reinforcing the bullish structure. Continued accumulation could push the price above $0.164, retesting recent all-time highs and establishing a new peak.
Downside risks remain if profit-taking intensifies or overall market sentiment weakens. A decline below $0.150 would signal a decline in momentum. Such a move could push the CC price further down towards $0.133, invalidating the current bullish theory.
Chili’s (CHZ)
Another altcoin to watch this weekend is CHZ, which has soared 29% over the past week and is trading around $0.043. The altcoin is still capped below the $0.044 resistance. This gathering ties in closely with Chiliz’s core use case as the demand for blockchain-based fan engagement continues to grow.
Momentum could accelerate further, as Sosios expects activity to pick up in the run-up to the Super Bowl in early February. Typically, as platform usage increases, the demand for CHZ increases. A break above $0.044 could push the price towards $0.047, with $0.050 emerging as higher resistance.
Selling pressure remains a major risk. If investors book profits, CHZ could retrace towards the support at $0.039. A break below this level would weaken the momentum and invalidate the current bullish outlook.
