⚡️ Maximizing Aster Farming With Minimal Costs

Aster is the Perp-DEX everyone’s talking about right now — in just one week, its trading volume skyrocketed from $1.1B to $35B.

🔎 With the new Stage 2 live until October 6, over 4% of the $ASTER airdrop (~$500M+) is on the table. If you’re not farming yet, you’re missing out — but here’s how to do it cheaply.

Steps:
• Register on Aster (30% of fees get rebated to you).
• Buy $ASTER and move it to your Perp-Balance (you’ll get a 5% fee discount when paying fees in $ASTER).
• Deposit and place limit orders — fees are 3x cheaper on limit orders than market orders.
• Keep trades open longer — the longer your position runs, the more points you earn.

🍀 Pro tip: To cut costs and only pay fees, use Lighter as a secondary Perp-DEX for hedging.
