tldr; aster just stealth tge-ed

backed by yzilabs, supported by cz

cz is returning to binance and binance having lagged almost the whole cycle will be looking to make some magic (?)

especially since they need to retaliate against hype

circ is about 13.3%: https://docs.asterdex.com/usdaster/tokenomics

if you compare vanity metrics between aster to avnt, aster does more than double the fees, while having 10x+ in TVL too (i looked at it at a surface level)

personally speculating that aster is a good candidate for binance to push and the r/r is there

highly speculative, so dyor

you can bid aster directly on its platform here:

https://www.asterdex.com/en/referral/7F01D5

personally think that there is a 90% chance of binance spot listing as well

if the thesis is 'crime', then don't look at numbers and try to calculate fair valuations (hint: look at myx)

the vanity metrics look good, but honestly i would think most are wash traders as usual on bnb

take profits progressively otw up should be the plan

personal entry was 0.08 when i posted

(not my ss, took it from a friend)

aaand here we have cz literally clapping for aster’s pa

i took my initials off aster here just to play it safe

can't help but notice even sol shitcoin KOLs are coming over to buy very quickly

so im trimming on cz's engagement and the rest will be slowly trimmed hopefully on spot listing

but imo crypto telegram > crypto twitter because those that were actively monitoring tg channels got in much earlier

be a good contingency planner
