Aster News Today: Aster Moves Tokens to Public Wallet Address to Address Community Uncertainty

- Aster clarified token unlock date adjustments were due to miscommunication, confirming no policy changes to tokenomics despite CMC/Binance listing discrepancies. - 6.06 billion ASTER remain locked, with unused tokens now transferred to a public wallet to enhance transparency and address dilution concerns. - ASTER price surged 10% to $1.12 amid Binance CZ's $2.5M holding disclosure and a $860K short liquidation, despite declining protocol fees and open interest. - Project maintains 20% supply allocation f

Despite a recent update on CoinMarketCap (CMC) that moved the scheduled token unlocks to 2026 and 2035, Aster's tokenomics have not changed, leading to confusion within its community. The decentralized exchange clarified that these changes were due to a communication error, not an actual shift in policy,

stressing that ecosystem tokens that haven't been used

have stayed locked since the initial token generation and will now be moved to a public wallet to enhance transparency.

The confusion arose when users saw that CMC and Binance listed significant unlocks—200 million

ASTER

in December 2025, and 3.86 billion plus 1.6 billion ASTER in 2035—which conflicted with previous announcements that 2025 unlocks would be postponed to mid-2026

as outlined in financial disclosures

. Aster explained that the tokens set aside for monthly ecosystem unlocks have never been released into circulation and remain in a locked wallet. To address these concerns, the team

plans to move these unused tokens

into a specific public wallet, allowing for independent verification and building greater trust.

Currently, Aster has 2.017 billion ASTER in circulation, with 6.06 billion still locked, and its market capitalization remains around $2.28 billion, even amid price fluctuations.

ASTER was trading at $1.12

at last report, marking a 10% increase over the past day. The price jump came after

Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ)

disclosed holding $2.5 million worth of ASTER, which impacted market activity. Meanwhile, a "Triple Short ASTER" whale

closed a short position of 4.79 million ASTER

, earning $860,000 in gains.

This situation highlights the difficulties caused by inconsistent circulating supply data in the crypto sector, which can heighten fears of dilution and influence investor attitudes.

Aster’s decision to use a public wallet

is intended to address these problems by keeping unused tokens separate from operational reserves, with no immediate intention to deploy the reserved supply.

Technical indicators show ASTER may challenge important resistance points, with bullish traders aiming for a breakout at $1.21

after reaching a $3.1 trillion trading volume milestone

. Still,

lower protocol fees and open interest

—$15.83 million in fees and $2.67 billion in open interest—reflect a cautious outlook among traders.

Aster’s tokenomics, which dedicate 20% of the total supply to ecosystem development, follow DeFi best practices by focusing on careful supply control. The project’s commitment to openness and ongoing community updates

helps it compete onchain

with platforms such as Hyperliquid and Lighter.
