Don't look at the announcements, look at the price! Buying back 4 million dollars every day, and the price can still drop like this, can only indicate two truths: either the buyback is a 'left-hand to right-hand'数字游戏, or the team's selling speed far exceeds the buyback. DefiLlama's willingness to delist its data is not without reason; behind the highly overlapping transaction volume with Binance, there is actually a 'single-player' game without real users. Before the issue of data transparency is resolved, the buyback is just a sedative for the investors, and once the effect wears off, it hurts even more!

Despite the team working hard to increase the buyback, the performance of the Aster coin is still not great. When the official X updated the buyback plan, it was originally intended to stabilize people's confidence, but the comments section erupted, and the price also showed no respect, continuing to drop.
In this post, the Aster team also frankly admitted that there are indeed many misunderstandings about the buyback, so they simply came out to clarify where the buyback currently stands.
Their statement is: "The S4 buyback has not stopped at all." Moreover, starting from December 8 (UTC), the buyback speed was directly increased to $4 million per day, maintaining full power for 8 consecutive days, totaling $32 million in the acceleration phase.
