Just back from the Philippines. One of the most exciting digital asset markets in SEA right now, jumping to 4th globally in TRM Labs' Country Crypto Adoption Index. Their regulators get it. Collaborative, forward-thinking, focused on outcomes: consumer protection, innovation, growth. Rare combo. Met great people at the Department of Finance including Secretary Frederick Go, the SEC’s Chairman Francis Lim, and the BlockShoals team. Real conversations about where the industry is heading. Big one: the SEC's PhiliFintech Innovation Office just gave BlockShoals in-principle approval under StratBox. This is what good regulation looks like. Build pathways, not walls. Programs like that signal that the Philippines is serious. Confidence attracts capital. Capital funds innovation. Flywheel starts here. Bullish on the Philippines. And crypto - buying the dip. More soon. 🇵🇭

We’re gonna need more charts.

call me insane but a perps dex doing $462m in fees while trading at this valuation makes no sense to me, either the fees are fake or the price is wrong and the fees are on @DefiLlama for everyone to see. $ASTER

Bitcoin is working today. So are we.

Who is waiting for aster-2:native god candle?

1.3m $ASTER bought back and distributed to stakers in just 5 days under the new tokenomics. i staked mine and i’m already seeing the yields hit different. this isn’t some random airdrop either, it’s protocol revenue flowing directly back to holders. the flywheel is spinning.

The industry is approaching a crucial moment. Injective is backing the Clarity ACT! Can America lead the world into a new era of financial innovation with the clarity ACT?

$ASTER is going to $10 and there isn’t a thing you can do to stop it.

CZ just said: "Owning $ASTER is better than holding $HYPE".

Aster has cemented its position as the #2 perp DEX. According to DefiLlama data at time of writing, @Aster_DEX now ranks second, after $HYPE, for perp volume metrics across 24h, 7d, and 30d periods. 24-hour: $2.442B 7-day: $12.039B 30-day: $62.818B It also boasts some $1.719B in open interest, outpacing nearly the entire sector. The prospect of an alternative perp DEX competing with $ASTER and @HyperliquidX in the near future seems increasingly unlikely...

Volatility tests every capital structure. Strategy remains focused on Bitcoin, disciplined capital allocation, credit quality, and long-term value creation. We appreciate our investors and will continue to execute with transparency and resolve. $MSTR

$ASTER BUY BACK DAY 2

[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-token…

Holy moly... $ASTER is going DEFLATIONARY. We've just seen a massive change to @Aster_DEX' tokenomics, which will see 99% of platform fees used to buy back the $ASTER token. The treasury will then burn the same amount again! The bought-back $ASTER will go directly to stakers and the burn will continue until there are only 3 billion $ASTER tokens. Could this change the trajectory of the token is 2026?
