Aster partners with Brevis to introduce verifiable computation, enhancing speed, privacy, and security across decentralized trading.
Aster DEX advanced its technology roadmap on Tuesday by integrating Brevis, a zero-knowledge computation platform. The companies announced a partnership that will aim at improving trading speeds while increasing privacy and security. Moreover, the collaboration is aimed at one of the sector’s longest-standing problems: obtaining CEX-level performance without sacrificing decentralization.
Partnership Brings New Capabilities to On-Chain Trading
According to the announcement, Brevis will move complex computations on-chain off-chain and use zero-knowledge proofs to verify the computation. This approach reduces the cost of operation while ensuring trustless security.
Brevis is partnering with @Aster_DEX to bring ZK-powered security and privacy to the next generation of on-chain trading.
The most advanced verifiable compute infrastructure meets the fastest-growing perpetuals and spot DEX in crypto. 🤝

DEXs traditionally suffer disadvantages when it comes to balancing speed, trustlessness, and privacy. Full on-chain execution slows performance and reveals user positions, while hybrid models create tradeoffs. Therefore, the integration represents an important step to resolving an issue that has challenged the industry for years.
Background Highlights Increasing Demand for ZK Infrastructure
Brevis’ technology has made it possible to achieve execution speeds close to the centralized exchanges. Further, the verification takes place in seconds without losing the decentralization. Industry blogs remarked that this model eliminates the old choice between performance and privacy, which was imposed on traders. In addition, privacy layers can be used to safeguard user-specific data while preventing the public from having to limit its access to market-wide activity.
Aster DEX has positioned itself as a multidisciplinary firm focused on institutional-grade trading architecture and focused on multi-chain trading. Research references have been placed on the exchange looking for pairing user experience improvements with cryptographic safeguards. Consequently, it seems like a good match in the long-term development strategy to build advanced execution systems.
The Aster (ASTER) token was trading on a price range from ninety-five to ninety-eight cents in early December. Market trackers put the value of the project at approximately two point one billion dollars. Moreover, analysts said Aster’s position in the market was a sign of growing demand for scalable and secure trading environments. The integration announcement coincided with a higher level of conversation across industry channels with regard to next-generation DEX performance.
Broader Effects Link to Future Liquidity and Risk Controls
This ensures that markets can function well and with high throughput while ensuring transparent protection systems. As a result, analysts view the collaboration as a model for decentralized infrastructure in the future.
Industry reports also stressed the importance of securing position-level data to ensure competitive trading environments. Moreover, broader transparency in aggregated markets has continued to be key for regulatory and operational clarity. Therefore, the combined architecture is used to deal with both institutional and retail priorities.
The partnership may have an impact on the liquidity distribution in the multi-chain environments. Improved execution speeds can lead to a better order book depth, whilst privacy measures could entice larger traders. However, analysts said it was important for rapid execution layers to align with secure verification flows, so as not to raise liquidation concerns during times of market stress.
