Aster Launches USD1 RWA Boost: Phase 1 with World Liberty Financial

Aster, a privacy-first onchain trading platform backed by YZi Labs, has launched USD1 RWA Boost: Phase 1 in collaboration with World Liberty Financial (WLFI). This campaign offers 125 million $WLFI and 6.25 million USD1 in rewards.

The launch builds on Aster's earlier expansion of its Aster Open Standards (AOS) framework from spot markets to perpetuals, which was announced as AOS-2. Leonard, CEO at Aster, stated that 'AOS-2 is turning Aster from a decentralized perp exchange into an open infrastructure layer where anyone can launch and operate their own perpetual markets on top of Aster Chain.'

The USD1 RWA Boost Phase 1 campaign runs from August 31 through December 31, 2026, covering six eligible pairs: SPCX/USD1, CL/USD1, XAU/USD1, SNDK/USD1, SKHYNIX/USD1, and MU/USD1.
