About Aster
Aster is a decentralized exchange that supports spot and perpetuals trading.
It originated from a late-2024 merger between Astherus and APX Finance.
The platform aims to address a DeFi inefficiency by enabling users to earn yield on collateral while trading.
The core design of Aster is “trade and earn”.
It allows users to post yield-bearing assets as margin for perpetuals and continue accruing passive yield while positions are open.
Aster positions itself as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralized finance by listing crypto and stock perpetuals that trade around the clock without custodial intermediaries.
Aster provides two interfaces for accessibility.
The 1001x Mode offers a simplified layout with leverage up to 1001x and protections to reduce MEV front-running.
The Pro Mode is an order book interface with multi-asset margin, grid automation, and advanced order types that mirror centralized venues.
The project is built on four pillars: cross-chain trading, pooled liquidity, advanced tools, and clarity and control for traders.
It boasts $2 trillion in total trading volume, 3 million users, $5 billion in open interest, $2 billion in TVL, and 101 listed symbols.
After its September 2025 token generation event, ASTER rose more than 1,500% at peak, attracting attention to its perps niche.
Support and Recognition
Aster’s predecessor, Astherus, received a strategic investment from YZi Labs, linked with Binance Labs, in November 2024.
The project also gained from visible community endorsements, with a public congratulatory post from Binance founder Changpeng Zhao boosting confidence during the token’s early rally.
At launch, the Total Value Locked (TVL) reached approximately $2.4 billion.
