Aster Executes Massive Buyback Burn as 2026 Roadmap Lands

Aster has completed one of its largest supply-tightening moves to date, executing its S3 buyback burn and locking half of the returned tokens for future airdrop distribution.

The operation marks a significant milestone for the ecosystem and signals a continued push toward long-term value creation.

The team confirmed the burn on December 5, 2025, at 00:00 UTC, following the end of its S3 buyback program, an initiative that accumulated 155,720,656 ASTER tokens from the market.
