Aster ALP

Pricing

From https://docs.asterdex.com/earn/overview/aster-alp/alp-fees.md, fetched 2026-09-29: mint and burn fees are dynamic. "Depositing an underweight asset lowers your fee; depositing an overweight asset raises it." The parameter table ("USDT current values") gives FeeBasisPoints, "Base fee rate", "0.25%", and TaxBasisPoints, "Adjustment rate applied based on weight deviation", "0.05%". Moving an asset closer to target: "MintFee = Max(FeeBasisPoints − TaxBasisPoints × InitialDiff / TargetValue, 0)". Moving it further away: "MintFee = FeeBasisPoints + TaxBasisPoints × Min((InitialDiff + AfterDiff) / 2, TargetValue) / TargetValue". The burn formulas have the same form. In the page's worked example, minting with underweight BTC costs a "0% fee" and burning to receive 1 BTC costs a "0.7% fee" (0.007 BTC). That example's own inputs read "TaxBasisPoints: 0.45%", which contradicts the 0.05% in the table on the same page. None of the four ALP pages publishes a management fee, performance fee or protocol take on pool P&L.Aster ALP — official pricing page ↗ · 28 September 2026

Availability note

A GENUINE MARKET RESTRICTION, NOT SANCTIONS BOILERPLATE — and Aster carries BOTH, in adjacent clauses, so they must be distinguished. (1) THE MARKET RESTRICTION, clause 2.1.c of https://docs.asterdex.com/resources/terms-and-conditions.md, read 2026-08-17: 'The Services are not available to, and you are expressly prohibited from using them if you reside in, are located in, are incorporated in, or have a registered office or principal place of business in any of the following jurisdictions (each a "Prohibited Jurisdiction"): the United States of America, Canada, the United Kingdom, China, North Korea, Russia, Ukraine, Cuba, Iran, Venezuela, or Syria.' The United States, CANADA and the UNITED KINGDOM are not sanctions jurisdictions — their inclusion is a commercial market exclusion and a real regional footprint, which is why `us` and `ca` are omitted from supportedRegions. `europe` is retained because only the UK is carved out of it; `asia` and `latam` are retained because only China and Cuba/Venezuela respectively are carved out. (2) THE STANDARD OFAC/SANCTIONS REPRESENTATION, clause 2.1.d, which applies everywhere and is NOT a regional footprint: a 'Prohibited Person' includes any person who 'is the subject of economic or trade sanctions or otherwise appears on any list of prohibited or restricted parties administered or enforced by any governmental authority (including, but not limited to, the U.S. Department of the Treasury's list of Specially Designated Nationals, the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Persons List Entity List, the E.U. Consolidated List of persons, and the U.K. Consolidated List of Financial Sanctions Targets)'. Clause 2.1.e adds 'You represent and warrant that your stated location is accurate and that you will not use any means to circumvent location restrictions.' Note the practical asymmetry a depositor should weigh: ALP is a permissionless onchain token on BNB Chain and Arbitrum, so the contract does not enforce clause 2.1.c — the restriction binds the depositor contractually while the code does not, which is a representation risk, not a technical barrier.
