📢 Big update for the Astar ecosystem 🌟 Startale is now using revenue from Soneium’s Layer 2 Sequencer to buy ASTR on the open market — a strategic move to reinforce Astar’s token economy with real, organic support. It’s a smart, long-term system: - Transaction fees fuel the sequencer - After covering costs, remaining revenue is used to buy ASTR - These purchases feed back into Astar’s growth This creates a sustainable loop where Soneium usage powers Astar’s strength. Startale and Astar have always prioritized ecosystem growth. Now, through Soneium, they’re locking in a system that supports builders and aligns incentives. More details here:

x.com

📅 Date: January 23 ⏰ Time: 12AM UTC / 9AM JST Don’t miss this chance to learn about fast finality and why we are building it for Soneium.

Big News: Building Fast Finality for Soneium! Altlayer and Astar Network are collaborating to build a Fast-Finality Layer for Soneium L2, secured by ASTR and EigenLayer’s restaked ETH. Forum Link 💡 Why Fast Finality? Soneium, built on the OP Stack, relies on fraud-proofs for settlement, causing delays: - Soft Finality: Sequencer. - Hard Finality: Rollups settle on Ethereum (~15m). This delay affects latency-sensitive use cases like Gaming & SocialFi. MACH by AltLayer - Fast-finality (<10s)—90x faster than Ethereum. - Secured by ASTR, EigenLayer ETH, and LSTs. - Robust economic guarantees for dApps, users, and bridges. Why ASTR Matters - Enhances ASTR’s utility and aligns Astar with Ethereum’s security ecosystem via EigenLayer. - Creates value for token holders, developers, and stakeholders. Why AltLayer? AltLayer is a proven leader in MACH deployments for CyberConnect, Xterio Games, and more. ⏳ Coming Soon Fast-finality is on the way, bringing blazing speed and reliability to Soneium L2! Stay tuned!

🌅 Good Day Astar Community 🌅 We have a few updates to share with you: 1️⃣ Defi YoPorts are back on Yoki Origins! 🦊 Quickswap, Arthswap, and L2X YoPorts have been re-activated. - Each Defi YoPort now has a 15-minute recurrence limit. This means quests must be completed and verified every 15 minutes to continue minting new NFTs. - When verifying on-chain quests, if the total OMAs held before the quest plus the OMAs earned exceed 50, no OMAs will be awarded, and the transaction will fail. You'll need to wait 15 minutes before trying again. - The VeryLongSwap quests have been deactivated due to YoPort being sold out. Go check out these YoPorts 👉

yoki.astar.network

We want to highlight that multiple team members have confirmed the accurate verification of on-chain quests and the acquisition of OMAs. However, occasional glitches and latency may occur due to the complexity of reading blockchain data.
