Binance founder and former CEO Changpeng Zhao spoke interestingly about a cryptocurrency project.
It’s unusual for Zhao to make this kind of comment about cryptocurrency projects other than BNB.
The Binance founder shared an image showing the performance of the Aster (ASTER) token, along with the message, “Well done, good start, keep improving.” The image was taken from Aster’s own platform, a decentralized cryptocurrency exchange.
Aster is not yet listed on Binance and was only launched today. Given that Zhao still holds significant influence on Binance, it seems likely that the token will be listed on Binance in the coming days.
Aster, on the other hand, is notable for being a cryptocurrency project running on the BNB Chain network. It’s also backed by YZi Labs, formerly Binance’s investment arm and led by Zhao. At the time of writing, ASTER’s price is up 129% from its initial price and has a market capitalization of $321 million.
