ASTER has announced the roadmap for its upcoming airdrop Stage 3, called Aster Dawn with reward claims set to open on October 10. The project has drawn major attention in recent weeks as activity around its token continues to grow.
According to an update on X on Sunday, the Genesis Stage 2 airdrop closed on October 5. Participants can begin claiming their rewards on October 10, with token distribution starting on October 14. Unlike many projects, ASTER rewards in this round will carry no lock-up period, allowing participants immediate access to their tokens.

Aster Dawn will run for five weeks until November 9. This Stage introduces a more complex reward model, including spot trading incentives, scoring systems, and symbol-specific multipliers. Unlike before, team boosts will now roll over instead of resetting, giving long-term participants stronger incentives.
Speculation around a potential Binance listing has added to the buzz. On-chain data showed a small test <a href="https://bscscan.com/token/0x000ae314e2a2172a039b26378814c252734f556a" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">transfer</a> of 20 tokens to Binance wallets, and a bigger transaction of $4.8 million. The <a href="https://x.com/cz_binance/status/1969445370892542393" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">support</a> of ASTER by former Binance CEO CZ has only increased the expectations.
The token has also drawn attention from high-profile figures. YouTube creator MrBeast reportedly <a href="https://www.cryptotimes.io/2025/09/29/mrbeast-buys-1-28m-more-aster-tokens-amid-crypto-buzz/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">purchased 167,000 tokens</a>, bringing his total investment to $1.28 million.
ASTER has seen sharp volatility, rising from $1.50 to $2.09 before dropping below $1.78, a key support level. Crypto analysts Ardi caution that such support may be lost, which will pull the price down, and a recovery will push the price to above $2.30. At the time of writing ASTER was trading at around $1.90, 4% lower than it was in 24 hours, according to <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/aster/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CoinMarketCap</a> data.
