Template:Short description
Aster is a decentralized cryptocurrency exchange and derivatives platform focused on perpetual futures trading.[1][2] The platform supports trading across multiple blockchain networks and offers perpetual futures and other digital asset trading services.[1][3]
History
In March 2025, Astherus relaunched under the Aster brand following its merger with APX Finance.[4][5][1] In September 2025, Binance founder Changpeng Zhao stated that several former Binance employees were involved in Aster and that investment firm YZi Labs, formerly known as Binance Labs, held a minority stake in the project.[6][7] The same month, Aster launched its native ASTER token through a token generation event (TGE).[8][9] In November 2025, Zhao disclosed that he had personally purchased more than two million ASTER tokens using his own funds.[10][11]
Platform
The platform operates across multiple blockchain networks and offers both a simplified high-leverage trading mode and a professional trading interface based on a central-limit-order-book system.[2][12][13] In February 2026, the platform was ranked among the largest decentralized exchanges by trading volume.[14][15][16] The decentralized exchange later expanded its offerings to include perpetual futures contracts linked to U.S. equities.[17][18][19]
Aster Chain
In March 2026, the platform launched the mainnet of its Layer 1 blockchain focused on trading infrastructure, which Aster stated was designed to support more than 100,000 transactions per second with block latency of approximately 50 milliseconds.[20][21]
