# Core Differences Between HYPE and ASTER:
①HYPE (Hyperliquid)
A high-performance Layer 1 blockchain optimized from scratch, built specifically for decentralized trading. The core is an on-chain order book for perpetuals + spot trading exchange, utilizing HyperBFT consensus to achieve sub-second latency (<1 second finality), process 100k+ orders per second, zero Gas fees (partial), and market maker rebates. Supports up to 50x leverage, one-click trading, copy trading vaults, and more. Has integrated HyperEVM (smart contracts).
Token utility: Staking (≥10k HYPE for validators, security + governance), 97% of trading fees used to buyback HYPE (deflationary mechanism).
②ASTER (Aster, formerly rebranded from APX):
A multi-chain DEX platform (supporting BNB Chain, Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum), focused on perpetuals + spot trading. Offers Simple Mode (MEV-free one-click execution) and Pro Mode (hidden orders, grid trading, 24/7 stock perpetuals). Supports LST (such as asBNB) or yield-bearing stablecoins (such as USDF) as collateral to enhance capital efficiency. Aster Chain (privacy-focused L1 using ZK proofs to hide positions/P&L) launching soon.
Token utility: Governance, ecosystem incentives, growth rewards.
