Stay SAFU everyone. It has been a tough week for the industry. Recent hacks show how security risk has fundamentally changed because of AI. Operational security and key management still lag the capital at stake. I am optimistic however that the industry will keep evolving. Better key management, stronger audits, and rigorous risk frameworks are the way forward. Teams that treat risk management and security as non-negotiable from day one, and actually deliver on that track record will outcompete the rest of the competitions. Builders who prioritise this will define the next chapter.

Your voice matters, help us improve
Over the past month, we’ve selected 136 valuable feedbacks for our UX Enhancement Program. Thank you for sharing your experiences and ideas with us! 💬 What makes feedback helpful? 1) For feature suggestions Tell us what you’re trying to do, what would help, and why. For example: “Before launching a grid bot, I’d like to test my chosen price range, grid count, and order size against historical prices. Showing returns after fees, maximum drawdown, and time spent outside the range would help me compare settings and understand the risks.” 2) For issue reports Please mention whether you’re using Aster Web, iOS, Android, API, or an AsterCode partner. If it’s a partner, include its name. Tell us which feature you were using, what happened, and what you expected. Include the time and time zone, and attach a screenshot or short recording if possible. For urgent issues, please go to our Discord and open a support ticket first. 📍 Where to submit - Click the feedback icon at the top right of the chart area on the trading page. - Go to More → Feedback: asterdex.com/en/feedback Thanks for helping us make Aster better.

We've made a couple of small UX improvements on Aster. You might have noticed them already. New users now have a 6-step guide to walk them through getting started. And we've made it much easier to share feedback, with a new entry point right on the trading page. We'd love to hear what you think and what else we could do better!

This is a big deal for all crypto OGs like myself. Bitcoin is how it all started and you can now deposit and withdraw directly into and out of Aster. No wrapping needed.
BTC natives, meet native BTC. 🟠 You can now deposit and withdraw $BTC directly via the Bitcoin network, alongside our existing support for wrapped BTC on EVM chains.

A very insightful discussion today with @EricTrump. The trend is becoming clear. The U.S. is moving from enforcement toward more workable regulatory paths for crypto markets, including leverage and derivatives. It is a positive step for our broader compliance strategy across global markets.

You can now run a Grid on BTCUSDT and trade that same market manually. Isolated margin. Multiple strategies at once. If you don’t want to build from scratch, open the Marketplace. Browse live setups. Copy one. Reverse it. Edit the params. Then let it run independently. CEX-grade tools, rebuilt for a Perp DEX. Try it out here: asterdex.com/en/trade/strate…
Meet Grid 2.0 + Grid Marketplace. Run Grid alongside your regular perp trading, with multiple strategies running at once. Need a starting point? Browse setups already running on Aster. CEX-grade tools, rebuilt for a Perp DEX 👇 asterdex.com/en/trade/strate…

Aster is officially one year old today, and we still need to keep shipping and building.  There are many ways to measure the length of a year. For me, the most meaningful one is how far we’ve expanded the boundaries of what Aster can do. A year ago, Aster was primarily a perp DEX. Since then, we’ve built a chain, added entirely new asset classes, opened up the listing process, and kept pushing for a better onchain trading experience. On markets: •Global equity, commodity and pre-IPO perpetuals •USD1 RWA perpetuals, with Aster being the first DEX to list them •Prediction markets On infrastructure: •Aster Chain mainnet •Staking and onchain governance •Aster Code for ecosystem builders •AOS-1, where spot listings are decided by validator vote instead of private negotiation •AOS-2, extending the same model to perpetuals For traders: •Zero maker fees on crypto pairs and negative maker fees on RWA pairs •Some of the lowest RWA trading fees in the market •Hidden Orders, Chase Order, TWAP, Scale Orders and sub-accounts •Aster Vault •Binance Connect and Binance Wallet integrations And on $ASTER itself: •99% of daily platform fees go toward buying back $ASTER, with every burn executed on schedule and publicly verifiable onchain •We extended the unlock cliff for 400,000,000 team-allocated $ASTER by another twelve months A broader scope means more users from all over the world and a greater responsibility. We’re nowhere near done. For year two, I want us to spend even more time on the small things that make Aster a better product. So today we’re launching the Aster UX Enhancement Program, Season 1, with 10,000 aFEE set aside for user feedback. No need for a formal report or a long write-up. Whenever you're using ASTER in your daily work and something feels the least bit frustrating or off, just tell us here: 
asterdex.com/en/feedback 1000 slots are open on the feedback page. If we find your feedback useful and act on it, you’ll receive 10 aFEE in your account, enough to cover your next 10 USDT in trading fees. Help us make year two better.

Market abstraction on Aster
"Market Abstraction on Aster" From Robinhood Chain to Arc, instead of opening a separate venue every time we support a new chain, we keep the market on Aster Chain and connect new networks into it. The idea itself is not new: users get access to assets across networks, while liquidity stays concentrated. What makes it different from a CEX is permissionless access. Once a network is supported, assets from that network can be permissionlessly listed on Aster. This gives us both flexibility and openness. Users will enjoy faster, easier access to the assets people actually want to trade. Arc-native assets for Aster perpetual markets are already in the works. More to come.
