Whales Drive Price Action as Aster Breaks Resistance

ASTER trades near $1.93 after breaking free from a falling channel pattern . The token reclaimed the 0.5 Fibonacci level at $1.97, turning that zone into strong support. Resistance sits at $2.08 and $2.23—levels tied to key Fibonacci retracements. Traders see these levels as the final barriers before a sharp climb toward $3. Technical analysts project $3 as the next short-term target.

Some even suggest a possible $9.69 long-term level if Aster mirrors HYPE’s performance. This comparison has fueled optimism among retail and institutional players alike. The project launched on BNB Chain on September 17, 2025, and quickly caught fire. Aster recorded an incredible $493.6 billion in trading volume over the past 30 days. That number crowns it as the top perpetual trading platform by volume.

In the last 24 hours as of writing, ASTER handled $82 billion in trades. Competitors lag far behind. Hyperliquid followed with $70 billion in weekly trades, while EdgeX and Lighter trailed with smaller totals. Aster’s growth speed feels almost meteoric, pushing the platform to over $1 trillion in total trading volume within two weeks.

Exchange Speculation Adds More Fuel to the Fire

Blockchain data revealed several transfers of Aster tokens to Binance-linked wallets. The pattern started with small test deposits and quickly scaled to millions. Such activity often appears before major exchange listings. Speculation now centers on a potential Binance spot listing by October 4, 2025. Neither Binance nor Aster has confirmed the news, but traders remain alert.

A listing would increase liquidity and attract retail traders, potentially accelerating price discovery. Analysts also highlight technical setups pointing toward a $4 target once Aster clears $1.87 resistance. Chart patterns indicate that major selling pressure has faded. Strong support zones continue to hold despite recent market volatility.

BSCScan data tracks active wallet movement, and social chatter shows traders anticipating an official update soon. The Aster community feels more confident than ever, seeing this moment as the calm before a breakout storm. If momentum continues, Aster could soon rewrite its price history and strengthen its position as a leader in decentralized trading.

After the US October CPI exceeded expectations, Goldman Sachs and Nomura added a forecast for an interest rate hike in March next year, while Deutsche Bank included a forecast for a rate hike in January next year.

No Need to Worry About the Cooling Down of AI Data Center Construction? The US Import Boom Is Unlikely to Subside in the Short Term, Real Impact May Come in 2029

It takes an average of 4.8 years from finalizing investment to starting construction of a data center project, and an additional 2.6 years from construction start to becoming operational. Servers usually cannot be installed until after the building structure and racks are completed. For trade partners such as Taiwan (China), South Korea, and Mexico who rely on US data center supply chain demand, the inertia in construction timelines provides at least a one- to two-year buffer for future exports.

Federal Reserve Major Debate: When Should the Tenure of “Number Three” Williams End?

The main point of contention is whether Williams should step down in June 2028, upon completing a full 10-year term, or in June 2027, when he reaches the mandatory retirement age of 65. Analysts point out that the Federal Reserve Board holds ultimate discretion; if he leaves early, Fed Chair Waller would be able to assert greater control over the appointment to this critical position. However, forcing Williams to shorten his term could easily be interpreted as political manipulation. Williams himself is expected to serve until June 2028.
