Astar

Astar is a multi-chain blockchain ecosystem that positions itself as a layer-2 and smart-contract platform operating within both the Polkadot and Ethereum ecosystems. Its stated aim is to bring users on-chain and coordinate product development through a shared governance and economic framework centered on a token called ASTR. It targets developers and projects looking for infrastructure that spans multiple blockchain environments rather than committing to a single chain.

Astar Network serves as the foundational layer for governance, security, and economic coordination across the ecosystem, with ASTR functioning as both the governance token and the economic unit that aligns network participants. The data does not specify a consensus algorithm or a non-zero block time, so those mechanical details are not available in this record. ASTR holders participate in governance decisions and the token is used to pay for activity within the ecosystem's products, which are developed under a unified framework the project calls the Astar Stack.

Over the trailing 30 days Astar collected 88.36 USD in total fees, of which the protocol retained 70.70 USD as revenue, implying a take rate of approximately 80 percent over that same period. Fees paid to the supply side — essentially validators or other infrastructure providers — came to 17.66 USD over the trailing 30 days. Annualizing the trailing 30-day fee figure produces approximately 1,075 USD, which against a market capitalization of 48,610,899 USD yields a fee yield of roughly 0.002 percent. Fee activity over the last 30 days declined by 1.07 percent compared with the prior period, and revenue over the same window fell 0.67 percent.
