Meme Coin’s craze will challenge Cardano’s academic roadmap for cryptocurrency transformation in 2025

Cardano is expected to fall in September 2025 with a price range of $2.76 to $3.21, attributed to market volatility and delays in scaling solutions. Still, the long-term outlook remains positive, with Cardano likely peaking at $3.39 by year-end, backed by technical indicators and upcoming roadmaps such as Hydra and Project Catalyst. Meanwhile, meme coins such as Layer Brett and Remittix are gaining attention with high-yield issuance and social media hype, in stark contrast to Cardano's research-oriented strategy. It is recommended that 70% be allocated to Cardano for stability in the fourth quarter of 2025 portfolio, 20% be allocated to meme coins for speculation and 10% be allocated to cash, reflecting the market's dual dynamics between academic rigor and viral speculation.
