Aster officially launches user-created deposit product Aster Vault

Aster has officially launched Aster Vault after ending the beta service, allowing all users to create vaults directly. Aster Vault is a service that lets traders run perpetual futures strategies in vault form. Traders who create vaults become managers, while investors deposit assets and share profits and losses based on their stake. Managers receive a performance fee as a set share of investors’ realized profits. To create a vault, users must hold at least 100 ASTER in a perpetual futures account, and the tokens are automatically locked when the vault is created. Users must also deposit at least $100 in one of USDF, USDT, USD1, USDC, or U. Managers and investors can deposit only the asset selected at that stage. The deposited asset, lock-up period, disclosure method, and performance fee ratio are all set during creation and cannot be changed later. Aster said it does not directly recommend any specific manager or strategy or solicit investment, as users create and operate all vaults themselves.
