Aptos Price Prediction – Why APT Could Soon Hit $10

Highlights:

• Aptos is trending towards critical resistance as bullish sentiment returns
• A rally through resistance could see Aptos hit $10 in the near term
• The latest news from OKX could help drive Aptos FOMO

Aptos (APT) is one of the cryptocurrencies in the green on a day when the market is sending mixed signals. At the time of going to press, Aptos was trading at $5.38, up by 0.52%. While this is a minor price uptick, Aptos trading volumes are rising significantly, up by 48.11% to $168.69 million. This is an indicator that investor interest in Aptos is on the rise. As this interest grows, there could be a significant price move soon. Multiple factors could support an Aptos rally going forward. 

Okx Leveraging Aptos to Unlock Bitcoin DeFi

One of them is the inclusion of Aptos as one of the blockchains chosen for xBTC by the OKX cryptocurrency exchange. This is a big deal as Bitcoin DeFi can now take place through the Aptos network. This is beneficial for Aptos in two ways. First, it raises the visibility of blockchains. Bitcoin DeFi is on the rise, and networks that capitalize on it could record a surge in transaction volumes. In the case of Aptos, it means Aptos could rank among the chains with high adoption, a factor that could draw in more investors.

In a market with many dead chains, this is a big deal in attracting investments to Aptos. Besides drawing in DeFi builders, Aptos’ inclusion in Okx xBTC transactions could also trigger FOMO from retail investors. Bitcoin is now part of the global financial system. As such, any network that makes it easy for investors to unlock Bitcoin’s value could surge, especially as the broader market turns bullish. This may explain the rising Aptos volumes in the day, a precursor to a possible big price move going forward.

Improving Macro Environment Favors Aptos And Other Cryptocurrencies

The macro-environment also supports Aptos. This week, the EU announced that it would fast-track trade deal negotiations. This came after President Trump threatened the EU with 50% tariffs. This move, alongside the ongoing trade negotiations with China, means stability could be returning in the global economy. This means that risk-on assets will become more attractive to investors. With the big news surrounding Aptos, especially the inclusion in Bitcoin DeFi, it could see its price rally to new highs as the market gains momentum.

There is also the possibility that the US could cut interest rates this year. If this happens, it would mean a huge market liquidity injection. Such would push money into high-risk, high-return assets like cryptocurrencies, a move that could see Aptos rally to new highs. Aptos, in particular, could draw in substantial investments because it appears highly undervalued compared to its all-time highs. Aptos peaked at $20 in 2023, before crashing to its current price of $5. A return to the all-time highs, as usually happens in all-out bull markets, offers an attractive return to investors and could drive bullish momentum.

Technical Analysis – Aptos Trending Towards Critical Resistance

Aptos has been in a slow uptrend since bouncing off the $4.36 support in April. It is now trending towards the $6.76 resistance. A rally through this resistance could see Aptos hit prices above $10 in the short term.

However, if bulls fail, especially in a broader market correction, then Aptos could drop back to the $4.36 support. While either of these two scenarios can play out, the odds are higher for a rally to $10. Aptos-specific factors and rising bullish sentiment across the market could trigger a price resurgence for Aptos.
