The team revealed its Stage 5 buyback program, a plan designed to strengthen the $ASTER token economy and create long-term value.
Starting December 23, 2025, up to 80% of the platform’s daily fees will be used to repurchase $ASTER tokens on the open market.
How Daily and Strategic Buybacks Work
Each step of the process will take place on-chain and be publicly visible. A buyback means that a project uses its revenue to purchase its own token. When supply is reduced or supported by constant demand, remaining tokens may become more valuable if usage maintains or increases.
The program is divided into two parts. The first is an automatic daily redemption that uses 40% of the platform’s fees. These purchases take place every day without manual entry. The goal is consistency. By purchasing tokens daily, Aster creates predictable demand and a gradual reduction in circulating supply. This can help smooth out price fluctuations and build trust among holders.
Phase 5 buyback program: Structured support for $ASTER
We are implementing a systematic buyback program intended to strengthen $ASTER tokenomics and create lasting value for our community.

The second part is a strategic buyout reserve that uses between 20 and 40% of the fees. This pool gives flexibility to the team. During periods of high volatility or low liquidity, the team can deploy the reserve to support the market more aggressively. This means the team can adjust the project schedule when conditions change.
The team records all transactions entirely on-chain and shares public wallets so everyone can track them. This is important because trust remains a key issue in crypto. On-chain data allows anyone to verify that the team is using fees exactly as promised.
