According to @ai_9684xtpa, chatter that CZ sold ASTER was countered by CZ stating he bought over 2M ASTER and that he rarely buys coins, source: @ai_9684xtpa on X. According to @ai_9684xtpa, an on-chain review of Hyperliquid $ASTER airdrop top-1 position holder 0x9ee...1daAb shows recent margin inflows labeled from AstherusVault and Aster(Game), but the referenced vault address interacts with many wallets with heavy daily flows, so labeling it as “treasury behavior” is not well supported, source: @ai_9684xtpa on X. According to @ai_9684xtpa, the upstream fund source 0x04D...3eE2C originated from a Binance withdrawal three years ago, and a frequently interacting address 0xBAD...39eE6 also lacks evidence linking it to the treasury, source: @ai_9684xtpa on X. According to the source, Aster’s official treasury addresses are publicly disclosed and can be directly monitored for balances and movements at docs.asterdex.com/overview/what-is-aster/our-smart-contracts, source: Aster documentation. Trading takeaway: Treat the “treasury short” narrative as unverified and track official treasury wallets and Hyperliquid metrics for confirmation before positioning in $ASTER, source: @ai_9684xtpa on X and Aster documentation.

According to the source, ASTER rallied over 30% after Changpeng Zhao (CZ) disclosed he personally holds more than $2.5 million of ASTER purchased on Binance, stating "I am not a trader.

No additional details on wallet addresses, trade timing, or execution were provided by the source (source).

According to @ai_9684xtpa, the viral claim that CZ sold $30M of $ASTER is fabricated, with the shared screenshot editing past-week transfers between Binance hot wallets to look like a sale this morning (source: @ai_9684xtpa on X, Oct 31, 2025; post: https://twitter.com/ai_9684xtpa/status/1984095975015956514).
