What is Aster
Aster DEX is a multichain decentralized perpetuals venue offering leverage up to 1001x. Users can open positions on leading crypto assets and tokenized U.S. equities without creating a verified account or surrendering wallet custody. For most on-chain trading features, Aster DEX does not require KYC verification.
The platform runs across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Solana, and BNB Chain. Beyond core crypto pairs (for example, BTC, SOL, and BNB), Aster also lists tokenized U.S. stocks and tokenized precious metals such as Gold and Silver.
Aster offers four seamless trading types:
- Perpetuals: Perpetuals trading via an order book interface with deep liquidity, extremely low trading fees, and advanced trading tools.
- Shield Mode: A simplified, AMM-style trading interface with built-in order and position privacy – faster, easier, and more streamlined, with higher leverage and a lower barrier to entry.
- 1001x: Perp trading using onchain liquidity – one-click, MEV-resistant perp contract trading.
- Spot: Spot trading via an order book interface with deep liquidity, extremely low trading fees, and advanced trading tools.
