Aster Says Tokenomics Unchanged After CMC Update Confusion
The post Aster Says Tokenomics Unchanged After CMC Update Confusion appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Decentralized exchange Aster has said that its tokenomics remain unchanged after a CoinMarketCap (CMC) update triggered speculation across its community about changes to the project’s unlock schedule. The confusion began when users noticed that token unlock dates shown on Binance and CMC, previously set for 2025, had been pushed to mid-2026 and, in some cases, 2035. However, the team clarified that the data reflected on CMC was the result of a miscommunication rather than a change in policy. According to Aster, the project’s original tokenomics included monthly ecosystem unlocks, but because the team has not yet had a usage plan for these tokens, none of the scheduled unlocks were executed. Since the token generation event, the tokens allocated for these unlocks have remained unused and stored in a locked address, meaning they have never contributed to ASTER’s circulating supply.

We will maintain transparency with the community regarding the usage of these funds in the future,” Aster said. Aster (ASTER) is trading at $1.12, up by around 10% over the past day, according to data from CoinMarketCap. However, the token is still down by more than 50% compared to its all-time high of $2.42 registered back in September.
