Aptos APT

Where APT sits in the market

At #79, Aptos sits in the bottom of the large-cap band, adjacent to the mid-cap cut-off. Down here the large-cap label is doing less work than it appears to. APT is one revision away from the mid-cap band, and the practical consequences of crossing that line — index eligibility, market-maker commitments, how much size the book absorbs — change well before the ranking does.

CryptoPingAi is currently streaming 8 live APT order books (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Gate.io, MEXC, HTX…). That is wider coverage than most assets ranked near #79 carry, so a divergence on any one of them is far more likely to be a local liquidity event than a genuine repricing. One of them is a Korean won market, so the Kimchi-premium spread between the KRW and USDT quote is visible on this page.

APT against its all-time high

APT is more than 95% below its all-time high of $19.92 (on 2023-01-26) — a 31.8x gap. At this point the record has essentially no analytical value: it belongs to a different supply structure, a different holder base and often a different market cycle. The useful reference for APT is the downside, not the peak, so the range section below matters more than this one. It was set 4 years ago. A reference that old says more about the cycle it belongs to than about the asset as it trades now.

APT across its historical range

The recorded range runs 25.0x, from $0.7955 to $19.92 — wide by the standards of traditional assets, moderate for this one's class.

APT is within -21.2% of its all-time low of $0.7955, printed on 2026-02-23. This is the part of a chart with no history: there is no prior trading below this level, so there is no support to reference, no volume shelf and no cost-basis cluster to lean on. That low is recent, so this is an active downtrend rather than an old floor holding: each fresh low retires the previous one as a reference.

APT supply structure

APT is capped at 2.10 billion APT, of which only 807.5 million is circulating — 38.5% issued, leaving 1.29 billion still to come. At that ratio the emission schedule is a primary driver of the supply story, not a footnote: new supply arrives continuously and has to be absorbed by new demand before price can hold a level.

What kind of asset APT is

Aptos is a base-layer network, so APT is simultaneously the chain's security budget and its unit of account rather than a claim on a business. Value accrual runs through validator economics and through whatever activity settles on the chain itself. It is secured by proof of stake, so a portion of the supply is bonded to validators at any moment and the float genuinely available to trade is smaller than the circulating figure implies; unstaking queues, not order books, set how fast that can change.

CoinGecko files APT under 10 categories, including Layer 1 (L1), Aptos Ecosystem, FTX Holdings, Coinbase Ventures Portfolio, Multicoin Capital Portfolio. Worth flagging from the metadata: APT was held on FTX's balance sheet and remains part of the estate's distribution, and appears in the Multicoin Capital portfolio.
