Aster is a token. It has no blockchain of its own and no consensus of its own — it rents both from the chain it is issued on, which is why it is listed separately from the cryptocurrencies.

C — 54 out of 100, provisional (from 8 of 10 criteria, 28 October 2026 build). With what is not yet measured anywhere from nothing to full marks, the score would be 44 to 64 (D to B).
| Criterion | Score | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Leading Consensus Mechanisms | 4 | group average |
| Host chain | 6.1 | Issued on BNB (C, 61/100) |
| Asset class (below every coin family) | 1.8 | Tokens: below every native coin family on the consensus ladders, 0.9 of 10 by largest asset and 2.7 by combined market cap |
| Network security | 0 | No network of its own: secured by its host chain, scored above |
| Decentralisation | 7.3 | group average, 3 of 4 measured |
| Minting and supply (who can mint more) | 10 | The BSC contract (0x000ae3…) has no mint function and no owner; supply only falls, through buyback-burns aimed at a 3B target.; fixed maximum supply source |
| Premine (pre-issued at launch) | 3 | 70% of supply pre-issued at launch. Allocated at launch: Airdrop 53.5 + Treasury 7 + Team 5 + Liquidity 4.5. The 30% Ecosystem pool was reassigned to fund staking rewards, so it counts as emission. source |
| Fundraising | 8.8 | Sold to the public or to investors: 12% of supply was the insiders' to sell, 4.5% sold. Predecessor Astherus took a seed investment from YZi Labs (ex-Binance Labs), announced Nov 2024, amount undisclosed. ASTER tokenomics has no investor bucket. source |

Ten criteria, weighted equally — for a token, the host chain replaces the developer share, the asset class stands in for the consensus ladders, and who can mint more for the Cryptocurrency Standards. Provisional: criteria marked — are not yet measured and are left out of the average. A rating of structure and market depth, not a price forecast or investment advice.

|---|---|
| To team, investors and treasury | 12% of supply |
| Sold to the public or to investors | 4.5% of supply |
| Who can mint more | Fixed supply — no one can mint more |

Allocated at launch: Airdrop 53.5 + Treasury 7 + Team 5 + Liquidity 4.5. The 30% Ecosystem pool was reassigned to fund staking rewards, so it counts as emission.
Predecessor Astherus took a seed investment from YZi Labs (ex-Binance Labs), announced Nov 2024, amount undisclosed. ASTER tokenomics has no investor bucket.
The BSC contract (0x000ae3…) has no mint function and no owner; supply only falls, through buyback-burns aimed at a 3B target.
In Oct 2025, 4% of supply moved from the airdrop reserve to the treasury, which would raise insiders to ~16%. Burns start with the team allocation. Where YZi Labs' tokens sit is not disclosed.

It is issued on one chain. Linked names are chains that are themselves cryptocurrencies with a page here.
CoinSpectrum counts an asset once. A token has neither its own blockchain nor its own consensus mechanism, so it fails both of the site's two conditions — it is a thing issued on a chain, and the chain is what is counted. The methodology states the rule, and the argument for it is set out in full.
Listed, not hidden. The point is that it is measured as what it is.
