The ASTER smart contract operates on BNB Smart Chain (0x00..556A).

Consequently, Aster will be delisted from Alpha, and its trading volume will no longer count toward Alpha Points.

ETH to $12K? Analysts Say It’s a Textbook Slam Dunk! 🚀📈

Now, Ether did have a spot of bother at the $4,600 mark, rather like a chap who’s had one too many at the club and can’t quite make it up the stairs. It slipped back to $4,500, but fear not!
