Aster token unlock of 95M begins June 9 with a 30-day claim window, testing market depth and volatility.

Starting June 9, 2026, about 95 million Aster (ASTER) tokens become eligible for claiming over a 30-day window, expanding supply by roughly 1.22%. This structured unlock spreads potential sell pressure, reducing immediate market shocks but extending event risk over a month. The derivatives market shows active trading with $377M open interest and $401M daily volume, but uneven funding rates across venues suggest fragmented positioning that could cause localized volatility. Investors should watch claim pace, exchange inflows, and derivatives metrics to gauge market impact and manage risk during this period.
