APT Loses 4% as Digital Assets Correct From Recent Highs

Aptos’ APT token slid 4% in the past 24 hours, trading near $4.43 after a volatile session that saw prices swing between $4.80 and $4.38, according to CoinDesk Research.

The token initially rallied to $4.80 on strong volumes but quickly reversed, hitting $4.38 before buyers stepped in. Institutional demand created support in the $4.38–$4.41 zone, with late-session momentum lifting APT back toward $4.45. Resistance now sits at $4.50.

The move came alongside broader market weakness, as the CoinDesk 20 Index fell 3.2% while Bitcoin and Ether also declined.

Despite the price retreat, Aptos’ ecosystem reported growth. The EXPO2025 digital wallet — powered by Aptos — added 500,000 new accounts and processed 4.4 million transactions. Meanwhile, DeFi giant Aave launched on Aptos, its first deployment on a non-EVM blockchain.

Technical indicators point to stabilization: strong trading volumes, successive higher lows at $4.39, $4.42 and $4.45, and three volume-backed rallies above $4.41 suggest buyer support. Analysts now view $4.40 as key short-term support, with $4.50 as the next psychological hurdle.
