Аналитики предсказывают взлет ASTER до $9,69 и возможное превосходство над HYPE Headline: Analysts Predict ASTER Soaring to $9.69 and Potentially Surpassing HYPE

Since its launch, the token ASTER, backed by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ), has surged nearly 8000%. The coin is projected to increase by another 480% and potentially overtake HYPE in market capitalization, according to analyst Marcell.

The expert believes that ASTER is well-positioned to capture a significant portion of HYPE’s market value. The Aster decentralized exchange has been showing superior performance compared to Hyperliquid, having already surpassed its competitor in daily trading volume and fees.

Marcell pointed to HYPE’s peak market cap of $18 billion as a benchmark, which is almost five times higher than ASTER’s current valuation of $3.5 billion.

Should the bullish prediction be validated, the price of ASTER could rise from its current $2 to approximately $9.69.

Analyst Danny concurs with this view, having previously predicted the coin’s rise to $2. He believes that the asset’s market capitalization could exceed HYPE’s figure as soon as next week, reaching between $8-10 billion.

He referred to the ongoing airdrop, which runs until October 5, and the upcoming unlocking of 4% of the total ASTER supply. Danny believes these events will encourage yield farming and support an upward price trend.

In light of the intensifying rivalry between ASTER and HYPE, major players have become more active. On September 22, the on-chain researcher known as MLM highlighted a whale that sold 1 million HYPE for $60.5 million and transferred 21.5 million USDC to Aster.

On September 24, another player bought ASTER tokens worth $13.9 million, while a different whale purchased coins totaling $50 million.

Analysts from Lookonchain also reported a significant investor who accumulated over 33 million ASTER worth $75 million in just two days.

It is worth noting that the community has suspected CZ’s involvement in the launch of the Aster exchange. According to some users, Zhao initiated the creation of a DEX within the BNB Chain ecosystem in response to Hyperliquid’s successes.
