Aster Reduces Token Emissions by 97% with New Staking Model
- Aster has replaced its monthly ecosystem unlock with a staking-only emission model.
- Previously, approximately 78.4 million ASTER tokens, or about 1% of the total supply, were released monthly.
- The new model distributes around 450,000 ASTER per epoch weekly as staking rewards.
- This change results in about 1.8 to 2.25 million ASTER entering circulation monthly, reducing emissions by roughly 97%.
- All ecosystem and community tokens since September 2025 remain untouched outside of staking rewards.
Aster’s shift to a staking-only emission model significantly reduces the amount of ASTER entering circulation each month by approximately 97%, aligning token distribution with active network participation.
