Aster has expanded its trading offerings by launching 
USDC perpetual markets for 
Bitcoin, 
Ethereum, and Solana. This strategic move aims to attract more traders and increase liquidity on the platform.
As of the latest data, Aster's token is trading near $0.71. Traders are closely monitoring the $0.7208 moving average and the $0.7563 resistance level for indications of a potential price recovery.
According to DeFiLlama, Aster's Total Value Locked (TVL) is currently $174.94M, showing a slight 0.2% decline over the past week. This suggests that while the platform is growing its offerings, it may need to attract more users to boost its TVL.
The USDC circulating supply remains robust at $71.85B, according to DeFiLlama. This stability in USDC's supply could provide a solid foundation for the new perpetual markets.
In the broader market context, the total crypto market cap is at $2.77T, with Bitcoin and Ethereum experiencing minor losses of 0.97% and 0.70% respectively over the past 24 hours. The Fear & Greed Index stands at 51, indicating a neutral market sentiment.

The chart plots BTC's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BTC ≈ ₹8.23M (about $80,810.00), down 0.8% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 7.2% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
