Aptos (APT) has continued its bearish trend in 2025, recently setting a new all-time low price of $1.14. Analysis indicates further downside is likely, though a short-term relief rally toward $1.50-$1.55 is possible before a potential resumption of the downtrend. Meanwhile, the rival Sui network maintains a significant lead in developer activity and DeFi liquidity.
The Aptos token APT declined over 8% to establish a new record low at $1.14. Analysts noted the longer-term trend has been bearish throughout 2025, with a key support level at $1.72 being broken and turning into resistance.
Technical indicators on a three-day chart showed sustained capital outflows and a bearish market structure since June 2025. The report concluded that more losses for APT appeared highly likely based on the current trajectory.
However, a liquidation heatmap from CoinGlass suggested a minor bounce could occur. Data showed the cumulative short liquidation leverage near the $1.50-$1.55 price zone outweighed nearby long leverage.
This created conditions where “it is highly likely that APT would see a bounce toward $1.50-$1.55.” The four-hour price chart identified the $1.44 and $1.52 levels as key Fibonacci retracement zones aligning with this liquidation cluster.
The analysis suggested traders could wait for a potential price bounce to this zone before considering selling positions. This comes as the Sui network, which also uses the Move programming language, continues to outperform Aptos in key metrics.
Sui was reported to have twice the monthly active developers compared to Aptos, and a similar disparity was observed in their Total Value Locked. Sui has maintained a lead in DeFi liquidity over Aptos since at least December 2025.
