Everyone is focused on the $ASTER 80 billion total supply complaints, but in fact, they are still stuck in the understanding of 2017.
Why is the supply of current projects larger than that of ETH and BNB back then?
In one sentence: The era has upgraded.
1: The token economy has changed
In the early days, it relied on scarcity; now it relies on balance.
The large supply of ASTER is for greater ecological distribution,
53.5% to the community, this is true decentralization.
2: Market rules have changed
No one plays with low circulation anymore,
High supply can support liquidity and attract users.
3: Technical demands have changed
Applications require high throughput and many functionalities,
Thus, the total supply naturally needs to be larger.
4: Distribution logic has changed
In the past, it was all fed to VCs,
Now ASTER directly feeds the community.
5: High total supply ≠ inflation
ASTER relies on real income for buybacks and burns every day,
Value accumulation is even more direct than old projects.
Conclusion:
Modern coins are not just about having a large total supply,
but have upgraded to: large supply + wide distribution + strong deflation.
The 80 billion token structure of ASTER is aimed at the long term.
