Aster Launches New Programs and Continues to Grow
Aster, a decentralized perpetual exchange, is entering a phase of rapid expansion. Following the strong performance of Stage 3, the platform has rolled out the Stage 4 (Harvest) airdrop program and will launch the “Double Harvest” trading competition on November 17 with a total reward pool of $10 million. At the same time, Aster continues to scale its early-asset product Rocket Launch, expanding the pipeline of new token activities.
Stage 4 Rewards and “Double Harvest” Competition
The Stage 4 reward pool includes 1.5% of the total $ASTER tokens, which is about 120 million tokens. The rewards will be spread across six weeks. At the same time, the “Double Harvest” competition will have five weekly leaderboards, so users can earn both airdrop rewards and competition rewards based on their trades.
Rocket Launch Keeps Growing
In addition to the airdrop and competition, Aster Rocket Launch is becoming more popular. Rocket Launch helps new projects grow by bringing in new users and money. In its first month, Rocket Launch helped launch five new tokens with a reward pool of more than $3 million. This shows that there is a big demand for early-stage investments.
Building a Better Trading System
Aster is also working on improving its system for the long-term. They are developing a Layer-1 on-chain order-book, which will allow users to trade directly through the blockchain. This will create a trading experience similar to a centralized exchange (CEX) but with more transparency, self-control, and privacy. They plan to test this new system in late 2025 and launch it officially in early 2026.
Aster is also expanding the use of $ASTER tokens. In the next two quarters, users will be able to use them for things like staking, governance, fee discounts, and VIP benefits. Aster has also added new features like gold and index perpetuals, and they plan to expand their offerings even more.
Expanding Around the World
Aster’s popularity is growing worldwide. Leonard, Aster’s CEO, spoke at the Binance Campus APAC in Korea to tell people about Aster’s plans. Aster will also be part of the Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai this December.
