Zero-cost entry for Vault managers
Aster_DEX has temporarily lifted the entry threshold for its Vault products. As of September 30, traders do not need to hold the 100 $ASTER tokens typically required to create vaults on the platform. The promotion opens the door to a wider group of traders, allowing them to launch management strategies with zero upfront token costs and establish a verifiable on-chain performance record.
Aster Vault ended its testing phase on July 31, 2026, opening the management strategy platform to all users for the first time.
Typically, creating a Vault requires holding at least 100 $ASTER tokens and injecting initial capital into the Vault with at least US$100 equivalent in supporting assets (such as USDT).
This promotion, which ends September 30, will waive the token holding requirement, but the initial funding conditions are expected to remain unchanged.
The operating mechanism of Vault and its importance
The Vault model transforms experienced traders into managers who can share the profits. The product supports three Vault modes: open, private and flexible, and has a specific lockup period.
Vault managers can set their preferred profit sharing ratio at the time of creation. After the follower invests in a certain Vault, he hands over the funds to the manager for transaction on his behalf, and the manager extracts a certain percentage of the realized income as a return.
This promotion is a real opportunity for traders who have developed a stable strategy but lack a formal track record. Releasing a Vault effectively transforms a private trading method into a transparent, auditable portfolio that followers can participate with real money.
Aster is a privacy-focused, decentralized exchange that provides a perpetual contract market for cryptocurrencies, stocks and commodities.
The platform was launched in late 2024 after the merger of Astherus and APX Finance, and is supported by YZi Labs and CZ from Binance.
The move to create Vault for free is part of the platform's broader strategy to expand user engagement and attract more new managers, which the agreement hopes to drive growth in transaction volume for Vault products.
