High Performance, Privacy-Oriented Chain Trading Platform supported by YZi LabsAsterIt's officially announced todayShield ModeI don't know. It's a direct integration ofAster PerpetualA whole new protected mode of dealingmaintaining up to 1001x leverage trading capacity brings faster, safer and more flexible trading experiences to chain traders。

The launch of Shield Mode marked a critical milestone on Aster's path to building a trading platform on the next generation chain. The model is designed for professional and high-level traders and aims to address the core pains of being exposed to trading strategies and intentions in a fully transparent chain market environment。

Aster CEO LeonardIt says, "Shield Mode embodies our judgment about the future of the chain of trade -- it is about not only leverage and speed, but also control, trade restraint and tactical protection. We want to create a trading platform where traders can still exercise the highest level of trading capacity without being forced to open their own strategies to the market.”

The evolution of transactions on the chain: from 1001x to Shield Mode

Aster's 1001x product has long been given considerable attention for the continuous breach of the chain's permanent trading boundaries, including core characteristics such as a maximum of 1001x leverage, zero slide points, zero warehouse charges and full chain settlement。

As the chain trading infrastructure matures, traders become more aware of the trade-off costs of trading in the full transparent chain — in particular, the risks of trading strategies and intentions being captured, analysed and even targeted by the market in real time。

In mid-2025, Aster was the first to launch Hidden Orders (hidden orders) on Aster Perpetual, allowing traders to participate in transactions without disclosing the price and quantity of orders, while still having access to deep liquidity. This function is considered an important step by Aster in the direction of “privateization of chain transactions”。

On this basis, Shield Mode further upgrades to a more complete and systematic model of protected transactions that integrates highly leveraged performance, trade intent protection, and more smooth, manageable trading experiences。

Sheeld Mode: Aster's brand-new trade mode

Shield Mode is built directly onAster Perpetualthe new transaction mode above integrates the full 1001x transaction experience into a uniform transaction interface and account system。

Under Shield Mode, traders can complete the opening and management of multiple space without having to interact directly with open order books. At the same time, the model avoids cross-chain switching, debrisization processes and frequent chain signature confirmation, making the highly leveraged trading process more coherent and efficient。

The core features of the Aster 1001x transaction model remain intact, including:

• BTC and ETH maximum 1001x leverage
• Zero Slide
• Zero warehouse charges

On this note, Shield Mode further improved overall transaction efficiency:

• Elimination of silo charges
• Full exemption from Gas costs
• Faster transaction execution

With multiple optimisations, Shield Mode will create new industry poles for high-performance, low-cost and lasting chain trading。

Flexible rate system, adapted to different trading styles

Shield Mode supported flexible cost models at the outset of the design, allowing traders to choose a more suitable way to pay for transactions based on their own strategies and preferences。

In a subsequent version, traders will be able to choose between the following two models:

• Commission Mode:A transparent fee structure with a fixed percentage is appropriate for high frequency or bulk traders。
• PnL Mode (in the share of proceeds model):Only when the transaction generates profits is charged, it is more consistent with a strategic trader seeking a return on risk。

To celebrate Shield Mode's official launchBy the end of this year, all Shield Mode fees will have been waivedI don't know。

This up-to-date tariff flexibility is intended to give traders greater cost control and enable different transaction styles to operate under a tariff structure that is more compatible with their own risk preferences。

To lay the groundwork for the next stage of Aster

Shield Mode is not just an independent function, but an important part of Aster's longer-term product vision. By introducing protected trading models in the chain market, Aster provides a higher level of strategic autonomy and privacy protection for traders。

At the same time, Shield Mode integrated 1001x transactions fully into Aster Perpetual, laying the foundation for the harmonization and integration of Aster core traded products, significantly simplifying the highly leveraged trading and warehouse management process。

Through this publication, Aster has become more than just a de-centre exchange, but rather a trading platform geared towards the next stage of the financial system, specifically for professional and high-performance traders。
