ASTER Drops Seven Ranks as CMC Top 100 Holds Steady

As of 15:00 UTC on 15 Nov, CoinMarketCap’s top 10 and top 100 membership were unchanged, leaving rank rotation inside the mid-cap and lower tiers. ASTER posted the largest decline, while AAVE and four smaller tokens advanced.

Rank movement in the middle and tail

The clearest signal was not a boundary shift but a spread of moves below the top 10. ASTER fell seven places, more than twice the decline of INJ, KCS, PYTH or APT.

Token	Rank change	24h price
AAVE Aave	#44 → #40 (+4)	▲ 2.2%
ASTER Aster	#39 → #46 (-7)	▼ 15.5%
VVV Venice Token	#60 → #57 (+3)	▲ 9.8%
INJ Injective	#66 → #71 (-5)	▼ 8.1%
APT Aptos	#86 → #89 (-3)	▼ 7.8%

Reading the spread

VVV combined a 9.8% price gain with a three-place climb, the strongest price-led advance in the selected group. AAVE gained four ranks on a 2.2% rise, while ASTER’s 15.5% drop produced the widest gap between price performance and rank damage.
