Aster, a perpetual decentralized exchange supported by YZi Labs, has postponed its airdrop due to data concerns.

Airdrop Postponement and Data Concerns

Aster, a decentralized exchange backed by YZi Labs, has postponed its airdrop to October 20 due to identified data inconsistencies.

The delay follows complaints from users regarding inaccurate results from the "S2 airdrop checker" tool and concerns about allocation errors.

Aster’s team stated they will update user allocations where needed, assuring most users’ allocations will meet expected levels.

Trading Data and Binance Correlations

DeFiLlama temporarily suspended Aster’s trading data due to unusually high correlations with Binance’s perpetual volumes.

This suspension highlights data integrity concerns, especially with XRP/USDT and ETH/USDT pairs showing near 1:1 correlations with Binance.

The site aims to verify potential wash trading before resuming the display of trading volume data.

Recent Glitches and Investigations

Aster recently reimbursed users after a price glitch in the XPL perpetual contract triggered forced liquidations.

This anomaly, likely due to misconfigured pricing, led to a sudden price surge and affected traders.

Aster is continuing to investigate this incident and the initial data inconsistencies.
