@Alaya_AI's governance token, $AGT, has posted a sharp rally that began on Thursday, leaving the asset with a weekly gain of roughly +337%. The exact cause of the move is unclear.
One trade has drawn particular attention. According to Lookonchain monitoring, trader 0xC7Fd went long on 20.5 million AGT (worth $1.63 million) with 2x leverage on Aster, and the unrealized profit has exceeded $1.26 million, a return of 155%, as relayed by PANews on October 17. The position was opened on @Aster_DEX.
It was not the only leveraged bet on the token. PANews reported on October 16 that five wallets opened 2x leveraged long positions on Aster DEX totaling 50.17 million AGT (worth $1.7 million) as the token rose more than 100% that day. Earlier this month, two addresses went long 24.57 million AGT with 2x leverage on Aster DEX, with a position value of $620,000.
Price data from aggregators points to a steep move in a short time. CoinMarketCap listed an all-time high of $0.09313 on October 17, 2026, and a 24-hour trading volume of about $165.6 million. Crypto.com's price history shows a one-week gain of 356.16%, slightly different from the +337% figure, which reflects differences in timing and data sources.
Volume stands out for a token of this size. In November 2025, CoinMarketCap noted AGT's market cap was about $6.04 million and described liquidity as thin. Thin liquidity can magnify price moves in both directions.
On the fundamentals, AGT is the utility and governance token of the Alaya AI ecosystem, and project documentation says it is used for data validation, auto-labeling model development, custom data requests, NFT upgrades and governance. KuCoin Flash also noted that a scheduled token unlock adds a supply consideration, so continued demand will be needed to sustain the breakout.
Rallies in low-cap tokens driven partly by leveraged positioning can reverse quickly. Traders should treat the unrealized profits cited above as open positions that can change with price.
