3 Altcoins To Watch This Weekend | January 3 – 4

The first weekend of 2026 will likely continue the rally of the tokens that have performed well throughout the week. Altcoins influenced by external market cues are also looking at potential gains, provided they continue to note investor support.

BeInCrypto has identified three such altcoins that could enjoy further gains in the coming weekend.

Pepe (PEPE)

PEPE became the top-performing meme coin this week after unexpected social momentum. Crypto exchange OKX shared a New Year frog meme commonly linked to PEPE. The post sparked renewed interest, driving a sharp price surge and highlighting the token’s sensitivity to cultural and social signals.

PEPE price jumped 28% in the last 24 hours, reinforcing an emerging uptrend. The Parabolic SAR confirms strengthening bullish momentum. Trading near $0.00000517, PEPE could break $0.00000544 and extend gains toward $0.00000583 if buying pressure holds.

Profit-taking remains a near-term risk after PEPE reached a six-week high. Increased selling could push the price back to $0.00000491. A deeper pullback below this level may send PEPE toward $0.00000460, invalidating the bullish setup.

Canton (CC)

Canton price has extended its strong rally that began in mid-December. The altcoin set a new all-time high during the last 24 hours, reaching an intraday peak of $0.177. Sustained demand and positive momentum continue to support upward price action.

The Chaikin Money Flow indicates ongoing investor inflows into Canton. Support from CC holders remains firm, reinforcing the bullish structure. Continued accumulation could help the price move past $0.164, retest the recent all-time high, and potentially establish a new peak.

Downside risks remain if profit-taking intensifies or broader market sentiment weakens. A decline below $0.150 would signal fading momentum. Such a move could expose CC price to a deeper drop toward $0.133, invalidating the current bullish thesis.

Chilliz (CHZ)

Another one of the altcoins to watch this weekend is CHZ, which surged 29% over the past week, trading near $0.043. The altcoin remains capped below the $0.044 resistance. This rally is closely tied to Chiliz’s core use case, as demand for blockchain-based fan engagement continues to strengthen.

Momentum could accelerate as Socios anticipates higher activity ahead of the Super Bowl in early February. Increased platform usage typically boosts CHZ demand. A breakout above $0.044 may push the price toward $0.047, with $0.050 emerging as a higher resistance.

Selling pressure remains a key risk. If investors take profits, CHZ could retrace toward the $0.039 support. A drop below this level would weaken momentum and invalidate the current bullish outlook.
