Is Aster Crypto Returning? MrBeast Purchases, New Token Releases Clarified

I’m completely broke; I lost everything in trading. However, Aster crypto seems intriguing. I’m contemplating whether it’s worth taking a massive personal loan to invest entirely in Aster?

If it pays off, that’s fantastic, but if it doesn’t, I could end up bankrupt.

Fortunately, the price movement on

has formed a classic symmetrical triangle. The momentum is tightening, and bulls must break through the resistance above to shift sentiment; a drop below $1.65 would favor sellers.

Additionally, crypto whales, including prominent YouTuber MrBeast, have increased their positions in Aster. Is Aster primed for another massive price breakout?

MrBeast and Whales Accumulate ASTER Crypto: Is a Major Breakout Approaching?

I associate Aster with the Smash Bros. emblem, my all-time favorite game. That’s the reason I invested in it. Furthermore, compared to competitors like Hyperliquid, Aster provides the ability to trade stocks, offers more pairs, increased leverage, and supports four different blockchains. Now, it also attracts crypto whales.

According to Arkham Intelligence data, MrBeast just acquired 167,436 ASTER for 320,587 USDT only a few hours ago, boosting his total holdings to around 705,821 ASTER valued at $1.28 million. His approach is evident: he’s buying every time there’s a dip.

Lookonchain also identified a large holder withdrawing 3.19 million ASTER ($5.27 million) from Gate.io, indicating strong conviction among larger holders. Combined, these two wallets control 132.78 million ASTER (8% of the circulating supply).

“Just took a long position in ASTER. It’s one of my favorite charts to trade,” tweeted investor James Wynn.

, which continues to lead the derivatives trading space.

Transaction fees are also rising. Aster accrued $13 million in the last 24 hours and $121.3 million over the previous week, highlighting its status as one of the highest fee earners in DeFi.

The October Token Unlock: $325M Approaching. Can ASTER Withstand the Unlock Challenge?

This month presents the most significant challenge. Data from Dropstab indicates that on October 17, ASTER will unlock 183.1 million tokens, valued at approximately $325 million (11% of its crypto market cap). Analysts from 99Bitcoins caution that, along with other unlocks, the total new token supply could surge to $700 million in October.

Crypto analyst Gordon summarized the market’s worries:

“The price of ASTER still has the potential to dip with the impending unlock. Strong buying interest will be necessary for price stability.”

To mitigate the potential impact, Aster is likely considering vesting schedules for recipients of airdrops to alleviate immediate sell pressure. Large holders might absorb part of the selling, but such significant fresh circulating supply could overwhelm the underlying fundamentals.

We can only wish happiness for CZ and all the promoters/insiders who profited immensely from Aster. The rest of us are left contemplating if we will ever ride that same wave.
