Avantis (AVNT) is waking up again. The token jumped 17% today, trading around $0.76, continuing its recovery after a 44% rally on October 21 that followed fresh listings on Kraken and OKX. Those exchange launches gave AVNT a boost in visibility – and volatility.
The recent listings helped spark renewed demand, but analysts warn that the rally could face headwinds from liquidity campaigns still running on major exchanges. For instance, Binance’s 1% airdrop in September added fresh supply to the market, while turnover remains elevated at 1.42, showing traders are still flipping AVNT aggressively.
In total, 741 million tokens remain locked, meaning future unlocks could pressure the price if demand doesn’t keep up. That’s the balancing act: short-term hype from exchange listings versus the longer-term supply wave still waiting to hit.
Rising TVL and Big Ambitions for 2026
Despite short-term risks, Avantis has been quietly building. The project now holds over $110 million in total value locked (TVL) – a 431% jump month-over-month – driven by growing interest in its synthetic commodities and FX markets.

The next phase of its roadmap is ambitious: tokenized equities and MT5-style trading terminals planned for mid-2026. That would position Avantis at the crossroads of DeFi and traditional finance, bridging on-chain and off-chain trading through a single platform.
If successful, this could make AVNT more than just another governance token. With 50% of platform fees distributed to stakers, the model rewards long-term holders and aligns the token’s value directly with platform activity. It’s a setup that could separate Avantis from slower-moving RWA competitors like Synthetix.

Trader Tank Sees Room for a Bigger Move
Popular analyst Tank shared a bullish outlook on X, showing AVNT’s potential for a full retracement of its October decline.
“I’m long $AVNT. Time to retrace the whole drop? Probably take profit way before that level but just shows how beat down some of these alts got and the potential if we see a broader recovery.”
Tank’s chart targets a move back toward the $2.60 zone, near its previous all-time high – not as a prediction of a straight moonshot, but as a reminder of how deep the drawdown has been and how much room there is for recovery.
At a market cap of around $200 million, Avantis remains relatively small compared to its potential reach in the exchange and RWA sectors. If broader market sentiment turns risk-on again, tokens like AVNT – backed by utility, listings, and real trading volume – could be the ones leading the rebound.
