After years of fading from the spotlight, the EOS coin is making a positive comeback, both in terms of branding and price action. Now rebranded as Vaulta, the legacy Layer-1 blockchain seeks a fresh start in the Web3 banking space. The rebranding includes a 1:1 token swap from $EOS to $A and integration with exSat for Bitcoin banking solutions.
The market is responding. The EOS crypto price surged over 12.40% in the past 24 hours to trade at $0.8658, with daily trading volume jumping 36.99% to $282.57 million. Its market cap also climbed to $1.35 billion, marking a renewed interest in the token after years of decline.
Since peaking at approximately $22.89 in 2018, the token has lost more than 96% of its value and is down 67.12% over the past five years. However, recent metrics indicate a potential recovery, with a 44.19% increase in the past month, a 26.23% rise over the last six months, and a year-to-date gain of 9.71%.
EOS Rebrands to Vaulta: What It Means
The EOS crypto project is now targeting real-world utility in decentralized banking and global payments. The Web3 banking initiative includes a 1:1 EOS-to-A token swap, integration with Bitcoin banking tools via exSat, support for over 140 exchanges for token migration, and self-custody swaps via Vaulta’s official Unicove Portal.
Major exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitget, MEXC, and KuCoin are already supporting the rebrand on their platforms, automatically converting EOS tokens to Vaulta’s $A or providing guidance for manual swaps.
The Vaulta ecosystem also offers a 17% staking yield, attracting investor interest despite concerns about slightly overheated indicators like the Chande RSI. Still, the promise of passive income and a refreshed roadmap is boosting EOS’s appeal among retail and institutional investors.
World Liberty Financial Purchases $3M EOS Coins
One of the most significant bullish signals came from Trump-linked World Liberty Financial, which purchased 3.64 million EOS at an average price of $0.824, an investment worth $3 million.
This move has reignited trader sentiment, especially since it aligns with a technical breakout. As noted by crypto analyst BitcoinSensus, the EOS crypto has been forming a “falling broadening wedge” since June 2022. When broken, these patterns often signal the end of a bearish phase and the start of an upward trend.
A close above $0.90 could trigger a run toward $1.30. If momentum and volume hold, $1.95 will become a valid target before Q3 2025.
Much of this progress will depend on the adoption of Vaulta’s financial tools. If staking demand increases and real-world partnerships develop, the EOS coin, now Vaulta ($A), may finally reclaim its position among top-tier Layer-1s.
