CoinMarketCap Introduces CMC Launch, Elite Pre-TGE Project Launchpad, With Aster as Inaugural Project

CoinMarketCap has launched CMC Launch, a new platform connecting quality crypto projects with its 70 million monthly users. Aster, a decentralized perpetual exchange, is the inaugural project. CMC Launch features stringent qualification requirements, a dedicated launch page, and interactive quests to incentivize project exploration. Aster offers dual trading interfaces, airdrops, robust infrastructure, and complete privacy. Users can participate in CoinMarketCap's first CMC Launch today.

CoinMarketCap has introduced CMC Launch, a new platform designed to connect promising pre-TGE (Token Generation Event) crypto projects with its 70 million monthly users. The launchpad is integrated within the CoinMarketCap data platform and aims to provide early-stage projects with significant exposure and growth opportunities.

The first project to be featured on CMC Launch is Aster DEX, a decentralized perpetual exchange that operates on BNB Chain and Arbitrum. Aster DEX is backed by YZi Labs and has partnered with PancakeSwap (CAKE). The platform offers two trading modes: Simple Mode, which allows for one-click leveraged trades up to 1001x, and Pro Mode, which caters to experienced traders with advanced tools. Users can earn Au points by trading on Pro Mode or holding specific assets like ALP, USDF, or eligible LP tokens, which can qualify them for AST token airdrops.

CMC Launch features stringent qualification requirements to ensure that only high-quality projects are featured. Developers must complete interactive quests and meet wallet eligibility criteria for airdrop access. The platform uses task-based onboarding to verify user engagement and identify eligible users for future token distributions.

CoinMarketCap CEO Rush expressed excitement about the new launchpad, stating, "As the ‘Home Of Crypto,’ we’re thrilled to welcome Aster as our first CMC Launch project and introduce them to our global community."

CMC Launch is accessible through a dedicated launch page on CoinMarketCap and will continue to operate as a main feature. Only teams that complete the review process will qualify for listing.
