Aster launches hidden order feature: orders go invisible, advantages emerge
Aster leads the market with product innovation and shapes industry standards through practical execution.
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insightsLarge trades, invisible moves. Aster’s newly launched "Hidden Orders" feature empowers traders with ultimate privacy and control—without exposing their liquidity.
Aster, the next-generation decentralized perpetual contract exchange backed by YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs), today officially announces a major upgrade to its professional trading platform Aster Pro: the launch of Hidden Orders.
This feature enables users to place perpetual contract orders in complete stealth mode, concealing all trading intent throughout the process. With this innovation, Aster becomes the world’s first native DEX for perpetual contracts to support hidden orders, once again leading the DeFi industry in technological advancement.
On Aster Pro, limit orders marked as hidden will not display any price, quantity, or order information on the public order book. Instead, they go directly into the main matching engine and only become visible after execution.
“In fast-paced, highly competitive contract trading, being seen often means being at a disadvantage,” said Leonard, CEO of Aster. “Hidden Orders allow traders to operate truly anonymously while preserving privacy, fairness, and liquidity.”
Why Do Decentralized Perpetual Exchanges Need Hidden Orders?
In cryptocurrency trading, the ability to execute large trades without disturbing the market is often what separates novice traders from professionals. Institutions and advanced traders commonly rely on sophisticated execution strategies like dark pools and hidden orders to conceal intentions and reduce slippage.
Recently, industry leaders have been debating a core tension within DEX infrastructure: while transparency builds trust, it also exposes large traders to predatory “front-running” tactics on real-time visible order books. This highlights an increasingly urgent need: decentralized perpetual markets require a solution that balances privacy with market integrity—one that prevents frontrunning and exploitation without compromising market fairness.
In fact, on centralized exchanges, high-frequency traders and whales already use dark pools or iceberg orders to hide their intentions—but both approaches come with drawbacks:
-
Dark Pool: Fully invisible and does not impact the primary market, but due to its separate order book, it causes liquidity fragmentation and typically results in lower fill rates.
-
Iceberg Orders: Appear anonymous and can tap into main market liquidity, yet still reveal partial order sizes, making trading intent susceptible to detection.
Hidden Orders are designed as a unified solution to these challenges:
-
🔒Full Privacy: Orders remain completely hidden until filled, revealing no price or intent
-
🕶Stealth Execution: Reduces slippage and prevents frontrunning in volatile markets
-
🔄Liquidity Integration: Directly integrated with the main matching engine, avoiding fragmented liquidity and maintaining tight spreads
-
⚡High-Speed Execution: Faster than iceberg orders, with no residual traces left behind
Born for Privacy, Built for Advantage
The introduction of Hidden Orders on Aster Pro marks the first time such native support has been implemented on a decentralized perpetual exchange. This isn’t just a product update—it’s a statement of intent: Aster leads the market through product innovation and sets new industry standards through action.
With Hidden Orders, traders can:
-
Secretly defend key price levels
-
Build or exit large positions discreetly, avoiding frontrunning and hedging pressure
-
Fully anonymous execution, while benefiting from Aster’s deeply aggregated order book liquidity
In a market where “whoever reveals first loses,” Aster empowers traders to control their own pace and destiny.
Redefining the Standard for On-Chain Perpetual Trading
This launch further solidifies Aster’s position as a leading perp DEX—not only ranking among the top globally in trading volume, but also continuously pushing boundaries in product experience, execution quality, and user-centric design.
From introducing email-based registration for seamless onboarding, to launching a privacy-focused ZK Layer1—Aster Chain Beta, and now rolling out Hidden Orders, Aster consistently places users at the center, raising the bar for what DeFi can achieve.
While other platforms focus on replicating centralized tools, Aster focuses on building real protective mechanisms for users:
-
Privacy: Deep privacy protection powered by zero-knowledge (ZK) technology
-
Fairness: MEV-resistant architecture ensuring a fair trading environment
-
Control: Professional tools like Hidden Orders and native order books give users full agency
We’re not just building products—we’re redefining the possibilities of on-chain trading: fast, fair, private, powerful. Experience the Hidden Orders feature on Aster Pro today.
