Aster's ability to quickly break into the mainstream is primarily due to the project's strong background—being an ecosystem project of a leading exchange, from initial airdrop design, token unlock schedule, to subsequent token price performance, all demonstrate the project's vision and execution capability. This is not only a reflection of market confidence but also a direct result of ecosystem empowerment.

Currently, the Perp (perpetual futures) track is extremely popular. The platform options are overwhelming, with traditional exchanges, DEXs, and emerging derivatives platforms all competing for this market. In the face of such a situation, how should users choose? Looking at popularity alone is clearly not enough. A deep comparison of project backgrounds, tokenomics design, platform liquidity depth, and user experience—these hard indicators—are necessary to find truly worthwhile opportunities in the track. After all, choosing incorrectly can lead to significant losses.

Relying on major exchanges is a winning strategy, there's no doubt about that. But with so many perp platforms out there, you really need to carefully distinguish them; otherwise, you might accidentally become the bagholder.

Endorsed by top exchanges is indeed impressive, but these days, who doesn't have a flashy background... The key is whether they can hold up in the future. The Perp track is currently a mess, with platforms popping up everywhere. Choosing the wrong one can really cost you everything. Ecological empowerment sounds very appealing, but the price of the coin speaks for itself, brother. No one really explains liquidity depth clearly; everyone is just hyping. There are quite a few projects with backgrounds that have run away, and that's the truth.

Endorsing major exchanges is indeed a useful move, but the Perp track is now so competitive that it's overwhelming... There are a bunch of platforms, and who the heck can tell them apart?

A strong background makes all the difference. No wonder Aster took off so quickly. However, the Perp sector is really competitive right now, and careful research is necessary.

Aster's move this time is indeed boosted by background advantages, but in the highly competitive Perp track, who can guarantee there won't be a setback?

Ecosystem projects are basically benefiting from the big players' dividends. Aster indeed managed to bottom out and profit from this wave. Anyone can really jump into the Perp track now; choosing the wrong one can lead to quick losses. A good background ≠ guaranteed increase in coin price; I still trust liquidity depth more. Endorsements from top exchanges sound impressive, but it depends on whether there's genuine ecosystem development afterward. Token unlock schedules are very complex; avoiding being heavily cut is already good enough. Every platform claims to offer the best experience, but only a few are truly user-friendly. Perpetual futures trading now requires mental preparation before entering. The question is, who can truly judge the fundamentals of a project? It still comes down to luck and gambling. Airdrop design is just the prelude; the key is whether there are practical application scenarios. Liquidity is risky; it can disappear suddenly, so the risk is really high.
