Elrond (EGLD) and Aptos (APT) are attractive in a sideways market
as they record extreme price fluctuations. This price action is
attracting market participants tired of Bitcoin and Ethereum
trending sideways, chopping out long and short positions.

day ago in most crypto exchanges, Aptos experiences massive price
fluctuations. At the time of writing, Elrond trades at $57 with a
4% profit in seven days and a 20% profit in thirty days. In the
meantime, Aptos deals at $7 with a 47% loss in the last 24
hours. Retail Traders Pile In, Betting On Elrond and Aptos
NewsBTC reported earlier that Bitcoin and larger cryptocurrencies
would likely continue with their sideways movement over the coming
weeks. This sideways price action might extend the spikes in
volatility for EGLD, APT, and tokens going viral across social
media. In that sense, data from Santiment recorded an
increase in the “Discussion Rate” across Twitter, Telegram, and
other platforms. Retail traders have been posting about these
cryptocurrencies causing more people to become interested, leading
to further volatility. The research firm said the following
on Elrond and Aptos’s price action while sharing the chart
below: Elrond and Aptos are both trending Wednesday for
different reasons. The price of $APT tanked after launching its
highly anticipated mainnet. Meanwhile, $EGLD has benefited from
some shilling and giveaways making rounds on Telegram, in
particular. Additional data from Material Indicators support this
thesis. Retail traders have been following as Elrond increases its
social media posting volumes. Traders with buy orders from $100 to
$1,000 are bidding into EGLD’s price action. The
cryptocurrency is losing momentum on lower timeframes. As seen in
the chart below, EGLD’s price is coming into heavy resistance at
its current levels. Selling orders are thickening and might prevent
the price of this cryptocurrency from sustaining its price
action. While more significant cryptocurrencies trend
sideways, any rally or volatility in the price of Elrond and Aptos
might be short-lived. However, if too many traders jump into these
tokens, Bitcoin and Ethereum might lose stability. Related

Policy Director According to a pseudonym trader, APT’s volatility
and increasing participation might take out the liquidity from
other trading pairs. This price action leads to a sudden shift in
price direction for more prominent cryptocurrencies, a situation
that might become normal while the market lacks clear
direction. After 1 day: $150 mil open interest, $3 bil
futures volume, $1 bil spot volume… This is going to suck so much
liquidity from the market.$APT https://t.co/iMupyE21It — Byzantine
