The new year has started positively as Bitcoin rose to 93,000 USD after several consecutive days of increases. This upward momentum has spread across the crypto market, helping many altcoins break through, getting closer to historical all-time highs.
That's why BeInCrypto has analyzed three potential altcoins that could reclaim their previous highs this week.
Canton (CC)
CC is currently trading around 0.143 USD, about 24% lower than the all-time high of 0.177 USD set on the first day of the year 2026. This altcoin is still in the recovery zone, and the recent price accumulation indicates that the market is considering whether the upward trend can return.
The Chaikin Money Flow indicator remains stable, showing no signs of decline, indicating a sustained inflow of capital. This also reflects that investor confidence is still being maintained. If the buying momentum continues, CC could recover and aim to challenge the previous peak of 0.177 USD.

The risk of price decline remains if the upward momentum is not maintained. Selling too early could push the price back to the support area of 0.133 USD. If it falls below this level, the price structure will be broken, and the bullish scenario will no longer be valid, making short-term downside risk a focal point.
Pippin (PIPPIN)
PIPPIN is trading around 0.455 USD at the time of writing, laying the foundation for a price increase in the coming week. The price of PIPPIN is still being blocked by the resistance level of 0.514 USD, which has repeatedly hindered PIPPIN's upward movement since late December 2025.
The barrier of 0.514 USD has made it difficult for the price to break through recently. The highest peak of PIPPIN reached on December 24 is still about 58% higher than the current price. The RSI index remains above the neutral threshold of 50.0, indicating good strength. If the overall market continues to support, the price may advance to the areas of 0.600 USD or 0.720 USD.
Selling pressure remains the biggest risk for the downward trend. If distribution activities continue, the downward momentum may be extended. If the price falls below 0.434 USD, PIPPIN will significantly weaken and may retreat to the support area of 0.366 USD, making the bullish scenario no longer feasible.
River (RIVER)
RIVER reached its all-time high of 19.28 USD on January 2, 2026. To return to this point from the current price, this altcoin needs to increase by an additional 43%, and this is entirely possible if the market maintains strong upward momentum.
RIVER has just increased by 11% today, currently trading around 13.64 USD at the time of writing. The price holding above the support of 11.71 USD helps solidify RIVER's bullish structure. With a correlation coefficient of 0.72 to Bitcoin, if BTC continues to rise, RIVER also has the potential to aim for the previous peak of 19.28 USD.
Profit-taking activities may create strong selling pressure causing RIVER to decrease in price. If the selling force increases, RIVER's price may fall below the support level of 11.71 USD. In this case, the price could easily slide to the area of 8.39 USD, breaking the bullish scenario and shifting towards a more defensive risk reduction.
