Aptos DEX Volume Reaches All-Time High Amid Liquidity Surge

Hyperion, a major DEX within the Aptos blockchain, achieved a new record by surpassing $3 billion in cumulative trading volume on June 9-10, 2025.

The high trading volume on Hyperion highlights a significant liquidity surge, improving trading conditions, and bolstering the APT token’s market performance.

Hyperion DEX Surpasses $3B in Trading Volume

Hyperion DEX has become the largest protocol on the Aptos ecosystem, achieving a new all-time high with over $3 billion in traded volume. This surge follows a series of infrastructure improvements.

Increased liquidity demand and improvements in protocol standards, particularly the Token V2 standard, have cemented Hyperion’s central role in the Aptos blockchain’s ecosystem.

APT Token Price Rises 4% on Liquidity Surge

Retail and institutional traders have been drawn by the reduced slippage and efficient trading offered by the surge in liquidity. Aptos’ native token, APT, saw a 4% increase in response to these favorable trading conditions.

The broader Aptos ecosystem benefits from increased user engagement and trading activity, enhancing its standing as a competitive Layer 1 DeFi platform. Financial markets have responded positively, indicating confidence in robust protocol support.

“Over 2.08M users have now traded across Aptos DEXs… Together, they’ve traded more than $17.39B in volume over 77M transactions. The average trade? $162. But here’s the kicker: the median trade is just $8. A perfect snapshot of both whales & everyday users in action.” – Aptos Foundation Forum

Past Performance Mirrors Current Market Trends

Past events, such as December 2024’s high trading volumes, exhibit a similar pattern of growth driven by infrastructure upgrades. Such occurrences have previously led to temporary token rallies, reinforcing current market trends.

Future projections suggest continued ecosystem growth if liquidity trends persist. Expert analysis highlights the potential for sustained market advantage within the Layer 1 blockchain competition, comparable to past trends seen in Solana and Avalanche.
