Aster, a high-performance on-chain trading platform, has announced an enhanced partnership with Binance Wallet, integrating native perpetual contract trading directly into the app. This enables users to trade crypto assets, U.S. equities, ETFs, and commodities seamlessly in one place—anytime, anywhere—while retaining full self-custody of their assets. As part of this upgrade, Aster has launched a USD1-denominated perpetual contract market, supporting BTC, ETH, and SOL trading with USD1 as margin. This new market offers lower fees and WLFI incentives. To celebrate the app integration launch, users who accumulate $1,000 USDT in perpetual contract trading volume on Binance Wallet between April 14, 2026, 20:00 and April 28, 2026, 20:00 (UTC+8) will receive an additional 3 Binance Alpha Points. As a high-performance on-chain trading platform, Aster continues to deepen integrations with top-tier wallets to deliver a secure, ultra-smooth trading experience for users worldwide—truly enabling the migration of derivatives trading from centralized platforms to wallet-native entry points.
According to an official announcement, Aster has launched the eighth round of its Rocket Launch program—Genius (GENIUS). Concurrently, the platform has introduced a trading campaign with a total prize pool of $200,000. The campaign runs from 15:30 UTC on April 13, 2026, to 14:00 UTC on April 20, 2026. Users are eligible for rewards if their total trading fees incurred during the campaign exceed $5 and their reward amount is equal to or greater than 1 $ASTER. Each participant’s maximum reward is capped at 3% of the total prize pool. Additionally, trading the GENIUSUSDT perpetual contract grants a 1.5x bonus multiplier. Rewards will be distributed within 14 business days after the campaign ends. Notably, Genius—partnered with the Aster Code ecosystem—is the first Aster Code partner to debut under the Rocket Launch program. Aster has also become the first DEX to list the $GENIUS perpetual contract.
At the current price, if this address did not sell upon transferring into Aster, the holding return is approximately 462%, with an unrealized profit of about $86,000.
