Today (September 23), Binance announced a HEMI airdrop via its ‘HODLer’ program for BNB holders. It has resulted in HEMI spiking more than +50% overnight and re-igniting investor interest in airdrop opportunities.
Traders have been continuously chasing a repeat of 2023’s Arbitrum 
Until right now, no airdrop farming opportunity has come close to Arbitrum, but the announcement of the ASTER crypto Stage 2 airdrop could be set to make history. Farming ASTER right now, as analysts are calling for a 10x return from its current price, a $500 investment could net savvy farmers $100,000 in rewards if and when ASTER reaches $10.
ASTER Crypto is Incredibly Hot Right Now and is Offering Users a Chance to Secure a HUGE Airdrop
ASTER has experienced a meteoric rise since its launch on September 17, surging by more than 7,000%. It is quickly becoming a real competitor to Hyperliquid with its on-chain perpetual futures trading platform, which has seen its 24-hour revenue hit $1.92M, according to DefiLlama.
In just five days since its platform went live, Aster is already generating around 40% of Hyperliquids’ daily revenue, which is expected to grow as the platform onboards more users.
Talking of onboarding more users, Aster just announced on its official X account the snapshot for what could be the biggest crypto airdrop in recent times.
The snapshot date in question is October 5, meaning anyone reading this today (September 23) is still early. The ASTER airdrop is severely underfarmed, and the upside potential is enormous. It is becoming increasingly apparent that Binance founder CZ, who is backing the Aster project, is trying to overtake Hyperliquid as the number one perp DEX.
There is no better way to onboard new users to a platform than by offering a huge airdrop, and this is the exact approach the Aster team is taking. Rough calculations show that initial deposits of just $500 to $1,000 could easily net a five-figure airdrop.
The Asters Stage 2 airdrop announcement stated that 4% of the total supply has been allocated to platform users. Stage 2 has been live for just two weeks, with two weeks of rewards yet to be farmed. It is incredibly easy to farm even for those with smaller portfolios.
To break it down, Aster has an outstanding token supply of around 8 billion, with an airdrop of 4% of the total supply, which means just over 320 million Aster coins will be distributed in the airdrop. That is worth approximately $550 million at current market prices.
Aster Genesis Stage 2 will end at 23:59 UTC, Oct 5.
With 2 epochs left, users can still trade and earn Rh points – 4% of total $ASTER supply is allocated for Stage 2 rewards!
Stage 3 kicks off right after to include spot trades scoring and refreshed rewards – stay tuned.

Easy Farming Strategy to Net a Huge Chunk of the ASTER Airdrop
Volume is by far the most significant contributor to points, and one farming strategy is to long Bitcoin 
For whale farmers, there is an even more lucrative farming strategy. By bridging $5,000-$10,000 to the BSC chain in USDT, whales can then deposit that USDT into the Aster platform and swap it for USDF, Aster’s native stablecoin. (Enable multi asset mode in settings and use USDF as collateral for perp trading.)
Then you can sit back and farm points by holding that, or, to take it one step further, use USDF as margin and open some 25-50x BTC scalp long or short positions with tight stop-losses. Experienced traders can use this method to scalp trade with high leverage, thereby increasing their points and rising up the leaderboard.
In conclusion, whether you are a whale or a trader with a smaller portfolio size, several effective methods are available to farm the ASTER airdrop, which could result in substantial gains once the snapshot is taken on October 5.
The best part is that ASTER crypto is one of the strongest tokens on the market and is currently in a clear uptrend. These airdrop calculations have been done at its current price of around $1.65, but many analysts believe that $10 per ASTER is a fair price and could become a reality in Q4.
