LINK, AAVE & LTC: Selling Pressure Drives a Broad DeFi and Payments Pullback

LINK is trading near $12.64, down approximately -5.6% over the latest 24-hour session after ranging between $12.09 and $13.40. The move shows a meaningful retracement from the session high, although trading volume near $37.3M indicates continued liquidity and active participation.

AAVE is trading around $166.50, lower by roughly -4.6% over 24 hours. After reaching $176.15, AAVE declined to a session low of $159.85, reflecting persistent volatility across the DeFi segment. Its quoted volume of about $31.9M confirms that price discovery remains active.

LTC is changing hands near $62.95, down around -5.3% in the same period. Litecoin traded between $60.97 and $66.44, with approximately $36.1M in quoted volume. The decline places LTC in line with the broader risk-off tone affecting major altcoins.

Across the three assets, AAVE has shown relatively better 24-hour resilience, while LINK and LTC have seen slightly deeper pullbacks. The market focus is now on whether demand can stabilize around the current session lows amid elevated crypto-wide volatility.
