The cryptocurrency data platform CoinMarketCap (CMC) announced today the launch of CMC Launch—a platform specifically designed for high-quality Pre-TGE projects, aimed at connecting potential cryptocurrency projects with over 50 million monthly active users worldwide. The first project to join CMC Launch is the decentralized perpetual trading platform Aster ($AST).

Compared to traditional launch platforms, CMC Launch employs a more stringent review mechanism, opening only to truly potential projects, helping early-stage projects reach global users. Selected projects will receive a dedicated launch page, interactive tasks to incentivize deep user engagement, and support for airdrop wallet screening.

The first project is Aster, backed by YZI Labs, aiming to provide innovative perpetual contract services for novice to experienced traders. Core features include: a simple/professional dual-mode trading interface catering to different user groups; various airdrop incentives; non-custodial trading without KYC, ensuring asset autonomy; offering deep liquidity pools, low fees, and multi-chain support to ensure a seamless user experience, currently live on BNB Chain and Arbitrum.
