My thoughts on $ASTER. @Aster_DEX @Leonard_Aster @dustaster0 If volume is sustained Buybacks could outpaced airdrop This is win-win. Most cases lose-lose. Stop the airdrop Volume disappeared Continue the airdrop Value of token disappeared This is no longer a stretched out problem. Fundamentally, the root cause of the problem must be solved. Staking program Lending/ borrowing Layer 1 Defi protocols etc will not help. The fundamental goal is to be the top trading perps. Not top layer 1. Therefore trading is key. - Get more master traders - Trading competitions - Increase trading experience eg work with terminals The rest of the build up will take too long to fulfill. First thing to do it to have more trades and price action. Only when there are price actions. You see real traders. Airdrop farmers are not real trades. I too believe that the number 1 perps dex should be on Binance/ BNB. I don’t like to post very serious things on X. I just want to share my thoughts cos my community has been asking me about $ASTER from time to time. Read my post below too. Thanks.
