Unlocking Wave Is Coming Soon!
HYPE and ASTER, as true leaders in decentralized trading platforms, have garnered significant attention within the community. The upcoming unlocking waves for both are as follows:
Starting from November 29, 2025, until November 28, 2028, HYPE will unlock 217,200 tokens daily.
Note: This is daily.
Continuing uninterrupted for three years.
Total unlock amount: 23,783.1 million tokens.
The unlocking schedule for ASTER is similar.
Starting from November 17, ASTER will unlock 72.72 million tokens on the 17th of each month until September 17, 2026.
This does not include the 210 million tokens to be unlocked on December 15.
From September 18, 2026, onward, 328,400 tokens will be unlocked daily until January 16, 2030.
Note: Also daily!
Fortunately, both projects have consistently used part of their platform revenue for buybacks.
Decentralization is definitely the future direction of blockchain development. In the long run, HYPE and ASTER have promising prospects.
However, the unlocking events will put pressure on the token prices.
Therefore, in the short term, the outlook is bearish, but in the long term, it is bullish. The future trend should be slow upward oscillation.
Let's wait and see.
