Aster

Aster has launched OTC trading on its platform, letting users execute large or customized trades directly with a chosen counterparty. Traders agree the terms and price with their counterparty, generate a Deal Code, and share it to be accepted. Once both sides sign, the positions open at the agreed terms.

Aster is updating how USD1 RWA Boost points are calculated. Effective from Epoch 3 on 2026-09-14 00:00 UTC, both Trading Points and OI Points are calculated on a 24-hour UTC cycle instead of hourly, while the 5-minute snapshot mechanism remains unchanged, and a new Trading Points multiplier was introduced. From Epoch 5, OI in Hedge Mode will be calculated using the net position on each eligible trading pair, which affects OI Points and may feed into the Trading Points multiplier via the 24h average OI calculation.

• The changes follow an earlier adjustment to Epoch 2, when Aster flagged highly concentrated trading volume on XAUUSD1 from fewer than 10 accounts between 2026-09-07 00:00 and 10:00 UTC and revised that epoch's points to keep the activity from disproportionately skewing results.
• Full campaign terms are referenced in the announcement; specific multiplier details were not published in the posts.

Aster launched Grid 2.0 along with a Grid Marketplace, its upgraded grid trading tool for perpetual markets. Grid positions and orders are now managed separately from regular perp trading, so users can keep a BTCUSDT Grid running while manually trading the same market, with Isolated Margin and multiple strategies running at once.

• The Grid Marketplace lets users browse grids already running on Aster, filter by market, and compare PnL, ROI, runtime and trading activity, then copy a setup or reverse a long or short.
• When a Grid starts, initial margin is transferred from the Perpetual account to the Grid, reducing the balance available for regular perp positions; remaining funds return when the Grid is fully closed.
• Aster describes the tools as "CEX-grade" features rebuilt for a perp DEX.

Aster has listed an OURA/USD1 Pre-IPO Perpetual market with up to 20x leverage. $OURA references the USD market-implied price per share of Oura, the health tracking ring maker, and the market is eligible for USD1 RWA Boost points, tying it into Aster's ongoing RWA Boost campaign alongside its other pre-IPO perpetuals.

Aster added a MOONSHOT/USD1 Pre-IPO Perpetual market with up to 20x leverage. $MOONSHOT references the USD market-implied price per share of Moonshot AI, the Beijing-based AI company behind the Kimi assistant.

The market is also eligible for USD1 RWA Boost points, tying the listing into Aster's ongoing RWA Boost campaign alongside its other pre-IPO perpetuals.
