ASTER Unlocks Delayed to 2026 and 2035 in Tokenomics Shift

Monthly Unlocks Removed from the Plan

The token release model previously included monthly unlocks tied to ecosystem growth. That model has now been suspended. The team explained that, as of now, there is no planned usage for the tokens that were set to be released.

According to a post shared by AB Kuai.Dong, Aster said

Timeline Extended to 2026 and Beyond

Several of the unlocks that were set to take place in 2025 have been moved to a later date. Some will now be released in mid-2026, while others are delayed as far as 2035. The team has not confirmed any specific schedule for future unlocks beyond that.

The changes appear to be based on the project’s current needs. With no demand for the tokens at this time, the team has opted to keep them locked.

Price Holds Above Key Level

At the time of writing, ASTER was priced at $1.13, which is above a noted entry level of $0.91, said to be linked to Binance founder’s cost basis. This places the token around 24% above that mark.

The announcement has not caused major market moves so far. Traders are watching to see whether the reduced supply flow will affect the token’s price stability in the coming months.l
