Aptos’ APT Jumps 7% as Price Clears Key Levels on Surging Volume

Aptos’ native token APT climbed 7% over the past 24 hours, rising from $4.34 to $4.62, as bullish momentum strengthened across the broader crypto market, according to CoinDesk Research’s technical analysis model.

The sharpest price action occurred overnight and into the early hours of August 8, when trading volumes exceeded 12.9 million units. This surge propelled APT through multiple resistance levels, helping establish a new support zone between $4.61 and $4.66. A fresh resistance ceiling has formed at $4.72.

Technicals indicate a 24-hour trading range of $0.44, or 9.4%, with APT peaking at $4.72 before retracing. Notably, institutional accumulation was observed at $4.36, and late-session volume spikes topping 126,000 suggest some profit-taking or distribution activity into strength.

The chart also shows ascending trough formations, hinting at continued bullish momentum toward the $4.80–$4.90 Fibonacci extension levels.

The upward move in APT coincides with a broader market rally, as the CoinDesk 20 Index gained 3.2% during the same period.

Beyond price action, Aptos has overtaken both Solana and Stellar in real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, now ranking third globally with over $719 million in RWA total value locked.

As of latest trading, APT was holding gains near $4.62, up 7% on the day.
