How the venue works

What is Aster?

Aster is a perpetuals exchange that runs across BNB Chain, Ethereum, Solana and Arbitrum. It lists 563 perpetual markets covering crypto, US equities and commodities, from majors like BTC and ETH to names such as TSM, GOLD and SILVER.

Aster operates two separate interfaces with two separate fee schedules. Pro mode uses an order book, charging 0% maker and 0.04% taker on a tiered schedule. Simple mode, the 1001x interface, prices positions against a liquidity pool and charges 0.08% to open and 0.08% to close, plus a flat execution fee; leverage on Simple mode runs up to 1001x, while the platform's stated maximum elsewhere is 200x. Funding settles hourly between longs and shorts to keep perpetual prices close to spot.

All trading happens from the user's own wallet, with no account sign-up and no KYC required, though Aster restricts access from the United States and United Kingdom. The exchange has its own token, ASTER, and its live airdrop program awards Rh points for trading on Pro mode toward a future ASTER allocation. Its referral program is live, paying a 20% direct share on a daily basis.
