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 will be calculated on a 24-hour UTC cycle instead of hourly, while the 5-minute snapshot mechanism remains unchanged. A new multiplier is also being introduced for Trading Points.
- The change follows an earlier adjustment to Epoch 2, where 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 the epoch's points to keep that activity from disproportionately skewing results.
- Full campaign terms are referenced in the announcement; specific details of the new multiplier were not detailed in the posts.
