Binance's PERP projects are like having a son and a daughter. Aster is the 'beloved daughter,' and Standx is the 'beloved son.' There's an old Chinese saying: 'Raise sons with frugality, raise daughters with wealth.' Aster (@Leonard_Aster) is showered with love and resources, with CZ personally leading its development. It gets the best of everything—technology, resources, talent, and even funding. It’s like a wealthy family spoiling their precious daughter. On the other hand, Standx takes a different growth path. Starting from the ground up, focusing on building its core quietly, and impressively not taking a single penny from the family. When it comes to capability, the Standx (@StandX_Official) team was the driving force behind Binance's contract products, from inception to growth. So, Standx's potential is no less than Aster's. If you take a closer look at these two projects, you'll find they complement each other in many ways. Aster leans more towards high-leverage, casino-style traffic strategies, while Standx is more DeFi-oriented, focusing on capital retention models. Their product strategies won’t be a zero-sum game where one thrives at the expense of the other. Instead, they’ll tackle Hyperliquid from different angles. That’s why I’m bullish on both, but I’m especially looking forward to Standx’s rise this time around.
