Aster updates USD1 RWA Boost OI calculation for Epoch 5
Summary
Aster has announced an update to its USD1 RWA Boost campaign, changing the calculation of Open Interest (OI) in Hedge Mode to be based on net positions for each eligible trading pair starting from Epoch 5. This adjustment impacts both OI Points and the Trading Points multiplier, which is linked to a 24-hour average OI calculation. The campaign, running from August 31 to December 31, 2026, incentivizes traders through two distinct reward pools, with participants earning points based on their trading volume and position sizes on designated USD1 pairs. To qualify for points in multi-asset mode, users must maintain a USD1 balance ratio greater than 50%.
