Token Surges and DEX Volume: How to Analyze Hype vs. Sustainable Growth

[nihalsari]

Q: When ASTER’s token rallied 800% and briefly overtook Hyperliquid in DEX volume, how should advanced users respond?

Look beyond short-term volume spikes: ASTER’s peak DEX activity coincided with whale-driven trades and influencer buzz.

Revenue vs. hype: Daily revenue hit $1.7M; token burns and incentives may maintain engagement but don’t guarantee long-term adoption.

Position sizing: For large traders, deep liquidity allows multimillion-dollar trades without being hunted—perfect for strategic exposure during high-volatility periods.

Tip: Monitor tokenomics and community incentives to differentiate between temporary hype cycles and sustainable network growth.

800% pump + record DEX volume looks flashy, but mostly whale + influencer driven. Long-term adoption still the real test.

ASTER hitting $1.7M daily revenue is solid, but burns + incentives alone won’t guarantee sustainability. Need real user stickiness.

DEX volume spikes can fade fast — I’m more interested in whether ASTER can keep activity once hype traders rotate out.
