Altcoins are showing surprising strength today, even as the broader crypto market reels from heavy losses, with Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) both down over 6%. Aerodrome Finance (AERO), Zebec Network (ZBCN), and WhiteBIT Token (WBT) are leading the way, each defying the downtrend with notable gains.

AERO is up over 18% following Coinbase’s Base DEX integration, ZBCN continues its 30-day rally with another 4% daily gain, and WBT hit a new all-time high above $35. While most major tokens bleed red, these three altcoins are thriving—and attracting serious attention.

Aerodrome Finance (AERO)

Aerodrome Finance is the top-performing altcoin of the day, up more than 18% in the last 24 hours, with its market cap nearing $550 million.

The surge follows Coinbase’s major integration of Base chain DEX services into its main app, which significantly boosts Aerodrome’s exposure to millions of users.

As Base’s primary DEX, Aerodrome already commands nearly $950 million in total value locked and over $500 million in daily volume, and this new visibility reinforces its dominance within the Base ecosystem.

While the token experienced short-term volatility after spiking over 35%, AERO still outpaced most top-100 assets amid a shaky broader market.

Looking ahead, AERO’s technical setup is approaching a key resistance at $0.708—if broken, it could quickly rise toward the $0.80 level. On the downside, the nearest support lies at $0.591, and a break below that could drag AERO down to $0.563 or even $0.50.

Zebec Network (ZBCN)

Zebec Network is up more than 4% in the last 24 hours, recently testing the $0.0045 level as bullish momentum shows signs of returning.

Despite broader market pressure, ZBCN remains one of the more resilient altcoins this month, riding a 65% gain over the past 30 days.

If current momentum holds, the token could soon test resistance at $0.0053, and a stronger breakout could push it toward $0.0071. This recovery comes after a short-term pullback, with traders now watching for confirmation of a renewed uptrend.

However, ZBCN is still down over 9% in the last seven days, highlighting ongoing volatility and the importance of key support levels. If the price falls back to $0.0038 and fails to hold, it could trigger a deeper correction, with downside potential extending to $0.00146.

WhiteBIT Token (WBT)

WhiteBIT Token defied the broader crypto market downturn to hit a new all-time high above $35, making it the day’s top-performing coin.

The coin has increased by over 6% in the last 24 hours and almost 13% in the previous seven days.

If this strength continues, WBT could push toward the psychological barrier at $40, especially if market conditions stabilize.

On the downside, the nearest support lies at $32.39—if that level fails, it could open the door to further losses at $30.89 and $29.94.
