Solana (SOL) emerged as the lone gainer amid the market downturn, advancing 1.4% against the prevailing trend. Aptos (APT) showed relative resilience despite falling, posting only a modest 0.5% decline, making it the second-best performer in the index.

On the opposite end of the spectrum, decentralized finance tokens absorbed the heaviest selling pressure. Uniswap (UNI) led the declines with a 7.1% drop, closely followed by Aave (AAVE), which fell 7.0% during the same period.
