Aster Launches 24/7 Stock Perpetual Contracts Trading with Exposure to U.S. Equities
Aster, a decentralized perpetual exchange backed by YZi Labs, has introduced stock perpetual contracts on its Aster Pro platform. Traders can now access leveraged, permissionless exposure to major U.S. equities like Amazon, Apple, and Tesla, among others. This MOVE positions Aster as one of the few global perp DEXs offering stock-based perpetual futures, enabling users to diversify into equities without sacrificing custody, privacy, or speed.
The platform allows 24/7 trading with up to 50x leverage, bypassing traditional broker limitations such as restricted hours and custodial control. Liquidity may vary outside U.S. market hours, but Aster's DEEP pools ensure efficient execution during active trading periods.
