Korean AI Stocks Go Onchain With Aster
Aster (@Aster_DEX) has launched perpetual contracts for Samsung and SK Hynix with up to 5x leverage.
The two companies sit at the center of the global AI memory boom.
Aster said the listings expand access to major equity markets through onchain trading infrastructure.
Aster has now seen $1.26 trillion in cumulative perps volume...
Since launch, leading perp DEX @Aster_DEX has seen an incredible $1.261 trillion in total trading volume.
Indeed, in the last 30 days alone, $ASTER has driven a full $48.3 billion in perps volume, according to data from DefiLlama at time of writing.
The platform appears to have cemented itself as the second largest perp DEX in the industry. Can it compete with @HyperliquidX?
OFFICIAL NOTICE FROM INJECTIVE
Today the @CFTC approved the first perpetual contract to list on a registered U.S. exchange. This is a major turning point for the entire industry.
Perpetuals are the most actively traded instruments in crypto, and American participants can finally reach them inside a regulated venue instead of being pushed offshore.
For most of the past decade, the rules sent this market overseas, and liquidity, talent, and builders went with it. Millions of Americans today are being left out of the most important asset class of our lifetimes. Treating perpetuals as a serious financial instrument is the first step toward bringing that activity home.
Injective worked to pioneer decentralized perpetuals and has settled perpetual markets onchain since 2021, powering more than $70 billion in volume through a fully onchain orderbook that anyone can verify in real time.
We laid the groundwork, and we continue to push for more innovation across crypto and for perpetuals to be recognized as a core financial primitive that benefits not just America but the world.
We look forward to engaging further with the Commission as this framework develops and to bringing crypto innovation back onto American shores.
Made in America. Made for innovation. Made for progress 🇺🇸

Aster Powers its way to $2 billion in open interest.
Despite impressive recent performance from several perps platforms including @OfficialApeXdex...
... @Aster_DEX still boasts more open interest than any perp DEX outside of @HyperliquidX itself.
With $2.06 billion in open interest and more than $47 billion in 30-day perps volume, it doesn't look like $ASTER is going anywhere anytime soon.
Who will be leading the pack at the end of the year?
