<h5><strong>How did APT react to the news?</strong></h5> 
<p><a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/aptos" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aptos’s $APT token</a> appears to have suffered a hit from the leadership transition. As of this writing, $APT was down by almost 20%. However, $APT remains one of the altcoins experts believe could shine in 2025.
