ChatGPT picks 2 no-brainer cryptocurrencies under $5 to buy now

OpenAIโ€™s artificial intelligence (AI) model, ChatGPT, has identified two standout digital assets it considers โ€œno-brainerโ€ buys, both currently trading below $5.

The selection timing comes as the broader cryptocurrency market stabilizes following recent sell-offs sparked by escalating tensions in the Middle East.ย 

According to the AI model, these picks are backed by strong fundamentals and engaged communities that could help drive their long-term price growth.

Cardano (ADA)

Known for its peer-reviewed approach and careful rollout, the blockchain has steadily built a robust and expanding ecosystem without the volatility typically tied to hype-driven tokens.

ChatGPT noted that if ADA can break above $0.70 with strong volume, the token could be on track to revisit the $1.50 to $1.80 range in Q3.ย 

Despite its slow and steady progress, the AI pointed out that Cardano still appears undervalued compared to other layer-1 networks like Ethereum (ETH), especially as its real-world use cases grow, notably in Africa, where itโ€™s being used for digital identity and education initiatives.

XRP

XRP was ChatGPTโ€™s second pick, praised for its resilience amid regulatory scrutiny. Once bogged down in a high-profile lawsuit with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), XRP has since regained credibility and investor confidence after a court ruling found the asset was not a security.ย 

However, legal proceedings are ongoing, with both sides pursuing a settlement. Currently trading at $2.13, XRP remains one of the most widely used cryptocurrencies for cross-border payments.ย

ChatGPT described it as โ€œbasically a sleeper giantโ€ that could see renewed momentum if major institutional partnerships or adoption announcements emerge.

The AI model believes a move to $5 is realistic in the short to mid-term and even sees long-term targets in the $7 and $8 range if utility-driven demand continues to grow.

Asked how to split a hypothetical $1,000 investment, ChatGPT suggested allocating $600 to Cardano, citing its higher growth potential, and $400 to XRP due to its strong institutional ties and improving legal position.
