Aster outlines plans to expand from perp DEX into shared trading infrastructure for regulated platforms

Aster's team says it aims to become shared trading infrastructure for regulated platforms rather than just a perp DEX. A recently signed MOU with FLOQ, a licensed digital asset platform in Indonesia, exemplifies the model: partners handle local compliance, distribution and customer relationships while Aster provides liquidity, execution, risk management and settlement via Aster Code and the Aster Open Standard. The author says similar models are being explored with multiple partners across other regions, details pending. Success, the author argues, should be measured by network growth, not only direct interface users.
