Major cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase has announced that it has added Aster (ASTER), a BNB Chain-based token, to its listing roadmap. While the roadmap signals intent to list, it does not mean immediate trading availability.

Trading Timeline and Requirements
Coinbase stated that the launch of ASTER trading will depend on market-making support and adequate technical infrastructure. The exchange will announce the trading start date separately once these conditions are met.

This move comes as Coinbase increasingly opens its platform to BNB Chain-based tokens, following the October listing of BNB itself. That month, Coinbase also introduced “The Blue Carpet”, a suite of products and services that streamlines asset listing and provides direct access to Coinbase’s Listings Team.

About Aster Token
ASTER is a rebranded derivative platform token (formerly APX) with a maximum supply of 8 billion, focusing on community incentives and decentralized exchange features.

The token gained attention after a 2,800% surge in late September, reaching an all-time high of $2.42 on September 24. Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) boosted market interest by calling ASTER’s launch a “strong start,” though he clarified he is not the token’s creator. CZ later purchased nearly 2 million ASTER tokens, generating additional speculative demand.

At the time of writing, Aster is trading at $1.04, up 3.51% in the last 24 hours.

This listing highlights Coinbase’s growing focus on BNB Chain tokens and the exchange’s effort to expand its offerings beyond Ethereum and Bitcoin-based assets.
