Aster (ASTER), one of the most talked-about platforms and altcoins of recent times, made airdrop requests accessible for a short time earlier than planned due to a technical error experienced today.
According to reports, the airdrop claim function remained active for approximately 10 minutes, during which time some users successfully claimed their rewards. However, after the bug was discovered, the Aster team disabled the claim function.
The Aster team made the following statements in its official statement:
Earlier today, airdrop requests unexpectedly opened briefly ahead of schedule. The issue has now been resolved. The airdrop will reactivate as scheduled on October 14th at 15:00 UTC+3.
As a result of the incident, the ASTER price has fallen by 5.11% in the last 24 hours to $1.40. The token is trading 41.65% lower than its all-time high of $2.42 reached on September 24, 2025.
Decentralized cryptocurrency platforms Aster and Hyperliquid have been in fierce competition recently. Aster is backed by Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao.
