Aptos Price Soars 8% On Deal With Trump’s World Liberty Financial To Integrate USD1 Stablecoin

The Aptos price soared 8% in the past 24 hours to trade at $4.56 as of 5:39 a.m. EST on news of a deal with the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial to deploy its USD1 stablecoin.

USD1 will go live on the Aptos Network on October 6, backed by support across Aptos decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and wallets.

According to CEO Avery Ching, Aptos has been in conversation with the WLFI project for a while, and “they view us as some of the best tech partners they could work with.”

Aptos was considered the best choice due to its low cost at less than a hundredth of a cent per transaction, Ching said, adding that the network is significantly faster than other blockchains, with transactions completed in under half a second.

With this move, Aptos aims to challenge the dominance of Ethereum and Tron and expand its share of stablecoin deployment.

Aptos Token Price Gains Momentum As Buyers Reclaim Key Levels

The APT price is showing signs of renewed bullish momentum, with the market rebounding from recent lows and pushing above critical technical areas.

Over the past few months, Aptos has been trading within a descending channel, with investors staging attempts to break higher but being rejected near the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA).

However, after a sharp bounce from the $3.75 support in late September, the price of APT has reclaimed the 50-day SMA and is now approaching a critical resistance zone.

Currently, APT is trading around $4.56, slightly above the 50-day SMA ($4.44) but still below the 200-day SMA ($4.85). A successful breakout above these levels would mark a potential shift in medium-term trend direction.

The Fibonacci retracement levels highlight the battle between bulls and bears, with the 0.382 level at $4.43 now acting as support and the 0.5–0.618 zone ($4.59–$4.76) emerging as the next resistance cluster. A move beyond $4.76 could pave the way for a test of the $5.00–$5.20 zone.

Aptos Indicators Signal Strength But Resistance Ahead

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently stands at 56, which places APT in a neutral-to-bullish territory. With no overbought signals, there is room for further upside before momentum risks becoming stretched.

Meanwhile, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator has recently flashed a bullish crossover, with the blue MACD line climbing above the signal line and early signs of positive histogram growth. This suggests that buying momentum is gradually increasing.

Looking forward, if APT can break and hold above the 200-day SMA and the $4.76 Fibonacci resistance, the price of Aptos could extend toward the $5.00–$5.20 zone, marking a potential 10–12% rally from current levels.

However, failure to clear these resistance levels could see APT pull back toward $4.43 (Fib 0.382 support) or even retest the $4.23–$4.00 zone. A breakdown below $3.75 would invalidate the bullish setup and point back to deeper channel support.
