Aster is taking a clearer and more structured approach to token value at a time when investors are demanding transparency.
Starting December 23, 2025, up to 80% of daily platform fees will be used to buy back $ASTER tokens on the open market.
Every step of the process will happen on chain and be publicly visible. A buyback means a project uses its revenue to purchase its own token. When supply is reduced or supported by steady demand, the remaining tokens can become more valuable if usage holds or grows.
The program is split into two parts. First is an automatic daily buyback that uses 40% of platform fees. These purchases happen every day without manual input. The goal is consistency. By buying tokens daily, Aster creates predictable demand and a gradual reduction in circulating supply. This can help smooth out price swings and build confidence among holders.
The second part is a strategic buyback reserve that uses between 20 and 40% of fees. This pool gives the team flexibility. During periods of high volatility or low liquidity, the team can deploy the reserve to support the market more aggressively. This means the team can adjust the project schedule when conditions change.
The team records all transactions fully on chain and shares public wallets so anyone can track them. This matters because trust remains a key issue in crypto. On chain data lets anyone verify that the team uses fees exactly as promised.
Aster announced that $LIGHT, $ZKP, and $IR are now live on Aster Perpetual, offering traders the ability to use up to 5 times leverage. To encourage activity, the platform is running a limited time promotion, giving a 1.2 times symbol boost for all trades on these tokens until 23:59 UTC on December 28.
This move allows both beginners and experienced traders to explore new positions while benefiting from enhanced potential returns within a clearly defined timeframe.
