#空投活动 The timing and reward structure of Aster's Phase 4 airdrop are worth paying attention to. Qualification check-in opens on January 14, the claiming window opens on January 28, but the core lies in the design of the vesting period — claiming immediately yields only 50%, and full 100% is available after three months.

From an on-chain perspective, this locking mechanism typically has two intentions: first, to filter genuine holders; second, to control the release pace of token liquidity. The destruction of unclaimed tokens is also worth monitoring, as it will affect the expected final circulating supply.

The recommended approach is: first confirm your eligibility and quota, then decide the optimal time to claim based on the project's subsequent developments. If the team has clear positive news or ecosystem progress within three months, the holding benefits are likely to be better; otherwise, locking in gains early can help mitigate risks. An airdrop does not equal value; the key still depends on the project's actual progress and market feedback.
