Astar Network Re-poster

You can now access Cash or Crash by Superstake on the Astar blockchain, backed by the technology of @intraVerse_Game. Players are invited to stake ASTR, with multipliers growing larger for every safe tile selected. Your primary objective is to cash out before the inevitable crash concludes the round. This onchain experience is all about mastering risk and timing.

The main priority for the Community Highlights this week was to ensure Astar is more approachable and easier to access. Through guides and clarifications created by the community, we witnessed a significant reduction in complexity that spanned multiple languages and various sectors of the ecosystem. Please see the full recap below 🧵

Intern update:

Upon reviewing the roadmap again, the strategic reasoning behind product development and coordination across the Astar Collective is becoming increasingly evident. This deeper understanding highlights exactly how ASTR is positioned to accumulate value from these initiatives. Observing the convergence of these elements is truly compelling.

Over the past week, Astar successfully implemented three significant governance updates. The approved measures involve the authorization of infrastructure funding, the finalization of council modifications, and the announcement that two community seats are now available. We have prepared a summary to explain these developments 🧵

We wanted to ensure you are aware that Astar has been focusing its efforts on Tokenomics 3.0. This pivotal update sets the parameters for how dApp Staking, ASTR supply, and issuance are managed to support the ongoing growth of the network.

In case this news slipped past you, Astar is actively developing Tokenomics 3.0. To support the network as it scales, this revised framework outlines the organization of dApp Staking as well as the mechanics for ASTR supply and issuance.

The Astar Collective acts as the central hub where all elements of Astar align. This initiative bridges the gap between the Astar Network, the contributors building products, and the community participating through onchain governance. Such a structure ensures that execution remains coordinated and ownership is clearly defined as products are shipped.

Our main priority this week has been to deepen the general understanding of the Astar product layer. Through community-driven insights into the Portal UX, updates on native DEX development, and translations of our roadmap, we have successfully clarified the path ahead for our products.

This week, the focus remained squarely on governance continuity and contributor accountability.

Key developments included proposals for Council rotations, discussions surrounding an Ambassador program revamp, and the recognition of Q4 contributions.
