A practitioner in the cryptocurrency industry, not the first bull and bear I've experienced. Value is more important than price; that is my value system.
As a member of the Aster team, I am most frequently asked, "Does your CEO not tweet?" "It's a huge loss." "Why is there no activity?"
He answers everyone's questions in the community as customer service, and also faces all discussions in AMAs. The most frequent question I get is whether today's community-collected issues have been resolved.
Focus on moving forward, just want to counter FUD by building better products.
Deeper liquidity, covering a broader range of assets; Privacy-focused L1 (Layer 1); Holder staking functions; Better trading experience, improving loading speed...
Bought back 254M $ASTER Burned 78M tokens, and re-locked 78M tokens into the airdrop distribution, hoping to reduce total supply and circulating supply. Plan to burn the remaining repurchased tokens.
This is what we do every day, more burnings will take place in the future.
S6 is the last trading airdrop, circulating supply growth will slow down in the future. During S6, automatic buybacks can reach up to 80% of fees.
Burning all remaining repurchases (about 98 million to date), the same applies to S6 buybacks. Suspending 1% unlocks each month, until staking goes live.
We also commit to providing on-chain proof, audits, or discussing details with analysts/community. Proving through execution rather than speculation.
Be friends with time, it's not just about being friends with time. Don't just look at what is said, look at what is done.
The sixth phase of Aster, which is also the most competitive airdrop phase, will begin on February 2nd.
Phase Six: Convergence marks the most significant tightening to date: - Minimum emission: 0.8% of the total supply - Longest holding period: 6 months lock-up, with an expiration mechanism - The final phase is allocated based on trading activity
With the launch of the Aster Chain testnet, the staking functionality is also entering the final preparation stage, and future issuance will transition to a staking-based allocation method, driving the ecosystem towards a deflationary economy.
Phase Six Overview: - Duration: 8 weeks (from February 2, 2026 to March 29) - Allocation ratio: 0.8% of the total supply (approximately 64 million $ASTER) - Vesting period: Optional 6-month lock-up period. (For more details, please follow @Aster DEX )

We are currently actively deploying our strategic buyback reserves to automatically repurchase $ASTER tokens.
Last month, we announced the Phase 5 buyback plan, this activation allocates 20-40% of daily platform fees to targeted repurchases, dynamically responding to market conditions, in order to maximize value and reduce circulating supply.
We have automatically executed the initial repurchase from the reserve wallet: 0x5E4969C41ca9F9831468B98328A370b7AbD5a397, on-chain and verifiable.
This reinforces our commitment to sustainable token economics and the confidence of long-term holders.
Phase 5 Buyback Plan: Structural support for $ASTER 💛
We are implementing a systematic buyback plan, aimed at strengthening the tokenomics of $ASTER , and creating sustainable value for our community.
Starting from December 23, 2025, Aster will allocate up to 80% of daily platform fees to buybacks for $ASTER :
1. Daily Automatic Buyback (40% of fees) —— Executed automatically every day, providing consistent on-chain support and gradually reducing supply. This creates a predictable foundation for token value.
2. Strategic Buyback Reserve (20%-40% of fees) —— Allocated for targeted buybacks based on market conditions. This reserve allows us to respond flexibly to volatility and maximize value creation when opportunities arise.
