Aster Launches Perpetual Grid Trading 2.0 with Up to 140,000 ASTER Liquidity Mining Campaign
Aster said it launched a Liquidity Pool Mining campaign on September 28, 2026, tied to its Perpetual Grid Trading 2.0 rollout. The campaign is set to run for four weeks, through October 25, 2026 UTC, with a reward pool of up to 140,000 ASTER.
What this rests on
What it means
Each sentence links inside to the piece that supports it.
Users and traders on Aster see a new liquidity incentive window starting September 28 and lasting through October 25, 2026 UTC. The platform tied that launch to Perpetual Grid Trading 2.0, so the immediate change is that this trading setup now sits alongside a time-limited campaign with an advertised reward pool.
In practice, the campaign adds a four-week period in which participants can join a Liquidity Pool Mining program that was not described here before. What remains the same from these pieces is that Aster is presenting itself as a privacy-first onchain trading platform backed by YZi Labs.
