💥 Let's talk frankly about $ASTER — because silence helps no one 💥

I want to have a real conversation about $ASTER — no hype, no hate, just the truth as many investors are experiencing it now.

At the heart of the matter is the structural issue, not the effort.

$ASTER has a total supply of 8 billion, with over half of it already in circulation. This fact alone creates persistent downward pressure. Until this is addressed structurally, price recovery will remain a tough battle. No amount of promotion can fix broken trust. When trust is gone, every rise becomes an exit — not an entry.

And that is exactly what we are seeing.

The people who have already been caught are selling at every rise. New investors look at the chart, the supplies, and the uncertainty — and simply stay away. Promotion without confidence does not attract token holders… It creates liquidity for exit.

Buying tokens, burning, product updates, innovation — all of it is visible. CZ's interaction, KOL exposure, marketing campaigns — all of it exists. But the markets do not reward the effort. And price actions clearly tell us that confidence has been damaged.

I say this as one of those who were there early.

I was part of the first wave called in September. I invested approximately $30,000 at $1.5, before the iOS app was even launched. I followed every update, learned the product inside and out, and watched the team build in real-time. This is not about the desire for instant profits — no one invests for charitable purposes. But the current structure of the currency makes it nearly impossible to shift attention to long-term token holders.

This is the real issue: conversion.

Over the past three months, there has been significant promotion from the team, CZ, and many influencers. There is traffic coming. Awareness is present. But buyers are not committing — because the token economics do not inspire confidence.

A trading plan delayed until 2035 may seem like a strategy on paper, but in reality adds another layer of uncertainty.
