[ $ASTER Tokenomics Update ] The cliff on the Team allocation will be extended by 12 months, from September 17, 2026 to September 17, 2027. The Team allocation comprises 400,000,000 $ASTER, or 5% of max supply. Under the original schedule, 10,000,000 $ASTER was set to vest each month beginning September 17, 2026. The allocation has remained fully locked since TGE and will remain so until September 17, 2027. This change does not affect Aster’s buyback-and-burn mechanism. For every $ASTER bought back, an equal amount will continue to be burned from reserves, with the Team allocation burned first.

[Tokenomics Update] $ASTER Buyback and Burn Steps Up to 198% Aster is upgrading its buyback so the platform's own activity both rewards stakers and sets $ASTER on a deflationary path. Starting from 12:00 PM UTC today, 99% of Aster's daily platform fees buy back $ASTER. An equal amount of $ASTER is burned from reserve, matching the buyback one for one. The bought-back $ASTER goes to stakers. Each epoch it is added to Loyalty Rewards (300K $ASTER base, plus the buyback amount), distributed to veASTER by lock weight. The burn takes team allocation first. $ASTER launched with a total supply of 8,000,000,000. The burn continues until total supply reaches 3,000,000,000. Buybacks run automatically via TWAP across each day and settle on-chain. The buyback and the burn are both public and verifiable: - Buyback wallet: 0xa0edBaBcb48034e368de286b49F9603C7AfA1b60 Every permissionless listing on Aster Spot pays a 50,000 USDT fee, used to buy back $ASTER as extra staking rewards. - Listing fee wallet: 0x39C473f4420e4ae9Ab3fe9e7ceDFc08F9684bB1a Docs: docs.asterdex.com/usdaster-t…
