Aster launches bStocks perpetual contracts on BNB Chain, enabling both “holding as earning” dual features
ChainCatcher reports that Aster has announced the launch of bStocks support on BNB Chain, allowing users to participate in trading by using tokenized stock assets as collateral while holding them, achieving “one position, two uses.” This mechanism enables users to continue holding bStocks and simultaneously use them for perpetual contract trading, thereby improving capital efficiency and enabling “holding stocks + trading” in parallel.
Aster points out that it has become one of the first DeFi protocols in the BNB Chain ecosystem to support bStocks, introducing this asset class into the perpetual contract market and further expanding the application scenarios of tokenized stocks in on-chain finance. Analysts believe that such designs strengthen the trend of integrating real-world asset tokenization (RWA) with the derivatives market, making it possible for on-chain assets to participate in leveraged trading without giving up their holding exposure.
