Aster completed its TGE on September 17, 2025, and has adjusted its tokenomics several times since launch, including extending the team lock-up by 12 months, modifying the release schedule for ecosystem and community tokens, and redefining the governance arrangements for remaining airdrop tokens.

Tokenomic adjustments are common as projects evolve, what matters is timely and transparent disclosure. RootData encourages project teams to proactively submit unlock schedules and changes so users can better understand token supply and release dynamics.

Aster’s Token Unlock Schedule Updates on RootData

Following further communication with the Aster(@Aster_DEX) team, RootData has updated the on-site unlock data as Aster’s latest confirmation.

Airdrop
The category has been split into Founding Airdrop and Governance Airdrop. Previously, eligible participants received 8.8% of the allocation at TGE, with the remainder scheduled for release over 80 months.
Under the latest official documentation, the remaining tokens in this category will be reserved for airdrops, with future arrangements subject to protocol governance. RootData will no longer track the governance airdrop on a fixed release schedule and will update it based on official announcements.

Ecosystem & Community
The category has been split into Ecosystem & Community 1 and Ecosystem & Community 2, which previously followed a linear unlock over 20 months. After 4 months (October 2025–January 2026), it shifted to a staking-based rewards model, where longer lock periods earn higher loyalty APY. RootData will no longer track Ecosystem & Community 2 on a fixed schedule and will adjust based on official updates.
