TechFlow News: On March 30, according to an official announcement, Aster DEX—a decentralized perpetual contract trading platform—announced a major revision to the $ASTER tokenomics, replacing the original ecosystem linear vesting schedule with a pure staking rewards release mechanism to reduce the monthly increase in token circulation.
Under the new plan, the previous mechanism of linearly unlocking 78.4 million $ASTER tokens per month (approximately 1% of the maximum supply) has been discontinued. Ecosystem tokens will now be released exclusively as staking rewards, at a current rate of 450,000 $ASTER tokens per epoch (weekly), translating to a monthly release of approximately 1.8–2.25 million tokens.
