Astar Fi is coming. One place to see everything you hold onchain, and the tools to act on it. Built for people who manage their own money. This is the direction Astar has been heading. Join the waitlist: 48plu9nrgbf.typeform.com/to/vy8Mk2WH?ut…

Bridged USDC on Astar is deployed following Circle's Bridged USDC Standard, the infrastructure that defines the path from bridged to native USDC issuance on EVM chains. As Bridged USDC adoption grows on Astar, native issuance is the next step within the same framework. Astar is

Money Mechanics 01: Stable Assets
A stable asset makes one promise. One unit of the token equals one unit of a currency. The market built on that promise now sits above 290 billion dollars, with banks, card networks, and payment firms...

Stable. In crypto, the word describes a price. An asset pegged to 1 dollar or 1 yen, expected to hold that value. The word says nothing about what keeps it there.

Finance has a name for what keeps it there. Trading at par. That depends on something different every time. A regulated bank deposit. A company's reserve. A protocol's code.

A chart shows you held par yesterday. It won't tell you whether the backing behind it holds tomorrow. Astar is building products that put what backs your money on the surface.

Astar Fi is how that direction takes shape. It brings real financial tools to people who hold and manage their own money onchain. More of that activity strengthens Astar's ecosystem, and ASTR.

Moonbeam is migrating off Polkadot to Base, and its chain will wind down as part of that move. Any ASTR or vASTR left in DeFi there may become inaccessible. Please withdraw and move your funds back to Astar before the 31 July 2026 deadline.

Something big is happening and we want you to be part of it. After years of building on Polkadot, Moonbeam and GLMR are going somewhere new. Today we are announcing the full migration of the GLMR token to Base and the upcoming launch of the new Moonbeam Protocol: a

If you're holding legacy bridged USDC on Astar, there's now a version with a defined path toward native USDC as adoption grows.

Any future upgrade to native USDC stays on this same contract, with existing supply, holders, and integrations intact.

Swap legacy USDC into Bridged USDC directly on @Comet_Swap. One asset, one contract standard, built to last on Astar.

1/ Bridged USDC adds another stablecoin path for @AstarNetwork. With @swapperfinance SDK integrated into the Astar ecosystem, users can bridge USDC from supported networks to Astar through Astar Portal. More liquidity in. More DeFi usage ahead.

Stablecoins are showing up in places crypto usually doesn't. Banks are issuing them. Card networks settle over them. Regulators are writing the rulebooks. In Japan, banks are preparing yen versions. They stopped being a crypto product. They're becoming how money moves.

Every one of them ships under the same word. Stable. Behind the word: a bank deposit in token form, a company's reserve, a protocol's code. The word carries the promise. The structure decides what happens when something breaks.

For stable money to work at that scale, what stands behind the word has to be readable. On Astar Network, standardized USDC already runs via @chainlink CCIP. That's one piece of what finance on Astar is starting to look like.

Applications on Astar can now offer direct deposits to users. The onboarding step becomes part of the product.

More applications offering direct deposits means more users accessing decentralized finance on Astar. That onchain activity supports Astar's dApp staking and the broader economic mechanisms that benefit ASTR. 🔗
