According to ChainCatcher, cryptocurrency data platform CoinMarketCap (CMC) today announced the launch of CMC Launch—a launchpad designed for high-quality Pre-TGE projects, aiming to connect potential crypto projects with over 50 million monthly active users. The first project to enter CMC Launch is the decentralized perpetual trading platform Aster ($AST).
Compared to traditional launchpads, CMC Launch adopts a more stringent review mechanism, opening only to projects with genuine potential, helping early-stage projects reach global users. Selected projects will receive an exclusive launch page, interactive tasks to encourage user engagement, and support for airdrop-eligible wallet screening.
The first project is Aster, invested by YZI Labs, which aims to provide innovative perpetual contract services for traders from beginner to advanced levels. Core features include: simple/professional dual-mode trading interface catering to different user groups; various airdrop incentives; non-custodial trading without KYC, ensuring asset autonomy; providing deep liquidity pools, low fees, and multi-chain support, currently live on BNB Chain and Arbitrum.
CMC CEO Rush stated: "The competition for traffic in the cryptocurrency field is intense, and CMC Launch is dedicated to helping new projects precisely reach and connect with users seeking potential tracks. As a 'cryptocurrency hub', we welcome Aster as the first CMC Launch project to showcase its innovative value to the global community."
