According to @EauDoon, early spot buyers entered around $0.20–$0.40 and mid entries were around $0.40–$0.70, with these bands later proving important in the move, creating clear reference levels for traders (source: @EauDoon).

Aster DEX perps followed with 0.2% funding, opening at $0.75 and dropping to $0.53, establishing the deepest retrace in the sequence (source: @EauDoon). Binance listed $ASTER perps next, with price reaching $1 before pulling back to $0.60 on Binance and $0.87 on other venues, while Binance funding ranged 0.3%–0.4%, indicating elevated long costs during the listing phase (source: @EauDoon).
