1/ Astar started with a Lockdrop. For months I've called the Burndrop the missing link, and never said to what.

Soneium 2.0 is the what 🔥

When the Soneium token is issued, Burndrop will be ready.
1/ 💿 Soneium: The Onchain Entertainment Economy.

Today we introduce Tokenized IP and our plan to issue $SONEIUM, an ecosystem-native token that connects our global community. 🧵👇

Astar Fi's public beta is open.

Your onchain money lives in pieces, a wallet here, a few protocols there, a spreadsheet holding it together. Astar Fi shows all of it in one place and lets you act on it.

We are going to ship @JPYStableCoin, the first bank-backed JPY stablecoin, in a few months. What I want to achieve is to leverage the lowest-cost funding currency on earth — JPY — to invest in the highest-growth assets, i.e., US stocks, executing fully onchain. It will be big.

Check out the new Tokenomics 3.0 on Astar 📷
It's live and active!

Lets burn and reduce the token supply even harder moving forward in 2026. Lets capture that value!
Tokenomics 3.0 is activated on Astar Network. ASTR supply now follows a long-term convergence path.

Emission decay is active, the inflation ceiling is reduced, and supply growth is now bounded.
