#Aster下跌 $ASTER is currently experiencing a significant downtrend, with a notable decline in December that has repeatedly approached key support levels. Even with the project's team introducing measures such as token burns and increasing buyback amounts to stabilize the market, the downtrend has not been reversed. The following are the specifics:
1. Recent price trend: The token has continued to decline from a high of nearly $2.50 in October, and as of December 15, 2025, at 1 PM, the price stands at $0.94. The decline in December reached as high as 62%, with a 30-day decline of 12.56%. During this period, it has repeatedly tested the support level of $0.90 - $0.92 and even fell to $0.89, approaching a critical cost line. If it fails to hold above $0.882, it is likely to approach the historical low of $0.817.
2. Core driving factors of the decline: On one hand, there is concentrated selling pressure from the token; 50 million third season reward tokens were distributed in November, impacting the liquidity pool, and whale players sold 20 million ASTER that month. Additionally, there are 700 million dollars worth of tokens waiting to be unlocked, further exacerbating market panic selling. On the other hand, the overall cryptocurrency market is weak, with Bitcoin fluctuating below $90,000, compounded by macro factors such as delayed interest rate cuts, amplifying ASTER's downtrend. Furthermore, indicators like MACD on the 4-hour chart continue to show a downward trend, and the technical aspect also presents bearish signals.
3. Market stabilization measures by the project team: To alleviate the downtrend, the project team destroyed 77.86 million tokens (valued at approximately $79.81 million) at the beginning of December and increased the daily buyback amount from $3 million to $4 million on December 8. These actions triggered a short-term rebound when the price dropped to $0.89, with a rise of 9.7% within 12 hours, but they did not change the medium to long-term downward trend.
