Score history
This rating is re-checked every month. A point is recorded for every check, so a flat line means we looked and nothing moved. Hover anywhere on the chart to see what moved that month, and by how much.
The Problem
On-chain perpetual DEXs traditionally suffer from MEV extraction, fragmented liquidity across chains, and idle capital that earns no yield while serving as trading margin.
The Solution
Aster combines multi-chain order-book perps with up to 1001x leverage, MEV-resistant routing, and yield-bearing collateral (asBNB, USDF, asUSDF) so traders earn staking/stablecoin yield while their margin is deployed.
Why it Matters
Multi-chain coverage (BSC + ETH + Arb + Solana + planned Aster Chain L1), 1001x simple-mode UX, deep YZi Labs (Binance Labs) backing, and integrated Earn vaults that double as collateral.
