Aster has shared a new buyback and burn update under its upgraded tokenomics plan. The update covers platform activity from June 29 to July 13, 2026.
The project said 99% of daily platform fees were used to buy back ASTER for stakers. The total buyback during the two-week period reached 3,083,815.69 ASTER.
Aster also burned a matching 3,083,815.69 ASTER from the team allocation. The matched action brought the upgraded model cumulative burn to 6,020,941.22 ASTER.

The project said 99% of those fees brought back 3,083,815.69 ASTER for stakers. Stakers are users who lock tokens to support a network or reward system. In return, they may receive rewards based on the program rules.
This structure connects platform fee activity with staking rewards. Tokenomics refers to how a token supply and rewards are structured. Aster’s latest update shows how fees were used under the revised model.
Team Allocation Burn Matches Buyback
A matching 3,083,815.69 ASTER was burned from the team allocation. A token burn removes tokens from a selected supply pool. In this case, Aster said the burned tokens came from the team allocation.
MSB Intel reported that Aster burned 6.02 million tokens in two weeks. The report also noted the 99% fee buyback plan and matching team allocation burn. It placed the cumulative burn since June 17 at 6,020,941.22 ASTER.

Aster also shared a BscScan transaction record for the burn. On-chain records allow users to review token movements directly. However, future updates will show whether the same pace continues.

Wider Burn Total and Staking APY
Aster reported cumulative burns across all programs of 183,801,942.79 ASTER. This figure includes burns outside the latest upgraded tokenomics period. It gives a wider view of token removal across the project’s history.
The project also shared estimated staking APY figures as of July 13, 2026. It listed 5.35% for a 26-week lock period. It also listed 28.85% for the maximum 208-week lock period.
Aster said the staking APY remains variable. That means rewards can change depending on program conditions and fee activity. Analysts may now watch fee revenue, staking demand, and future burn updates.
