Aster launches the AOS-2 standard, transitioning the perpetual market to a public staking voting mechanism

According to official news, Aster announced that AOS-2 is officially in effect. Previously, AOS-1 opened up the listing of spot tokens to projects that meet public standards, and AOS-2 extends the same principle to the perpetual market, which traditionally relies on private negotiations for listings.

According to AOS-2, eligible applicants must stake 1,000,000 ASTER, lock it for four years without an early exit option, and then apply to enter the on-chain validator voting phase. If the vote passes, the Aster risk control team will complete market allocation, and the perpetual contract will go live on T+1; if it does not pass, the full staked amount will be returned.

The leverage and other risk parameters for each market are set by the Aster risk control system, with rules made public and decisions recorded on-chain. AOS-3 will be launched subsequently.
