People buy Aster because it can be used in various online applications, like games or digital marketplaces, where it acts as a currency. It helps in making transactions faster and more secure. Aster is also part of a growing ecosystem that supports decentralized applications, which are apps that run on a network rather than a single computer. This makes them more reliable and less prone to failure.

Things to know before buying Aster in the United States

In the United States, cryptocurrencies like Aster are legal but regulated. You must complete KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) checks when buying. Cryptocurrencies are considered property for tax purposes, so you may need to report gains or losses on your tax return. Income from activities like staking may also be taxable. Always consult a tax professional for detailed advice.

What are other ways to own Aster?

You can obtain Aster without buying it by participating in airdrops, where free tokens are distributed to users. Some platforms offer Learn-and-Earn programs, rewarding you with Aster for completing educational tasks. Participating in network activities like staking or providing liquidity can also earn you Aster. These methods require effort and understanding of the risks involved, such as market volatility.

How can I store my Aster?

To keep your Aster safe, you can use a custodial wallet, where a service holds it for you, or a non-custodial wallet, where you control it. Hot wallets are online and convenient but less secure, while cold wallets are offline and more secure. Always back up your wallet and keep recovery phrases safe. Use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication to protect your assets from loss or theft.
