Aster: The XPL contract anomaly due to internal configuration errors will automatically compensate affected users

ChainCatcher message, the Aster team stated that the compensation for the abnormal price event of the XPL perpetual contract will be automatically credited to the affected users' accounts within one hour. If there are any questions, a ticket can be submitted via Discord after the distribution is completed.

According to the official statement, the incident originated from a parameter configuration error when switching XPL from the pre-launch market to the official perpetual market, which caused the index price to be capped at 1 dollar. After removing the cap, it remained in pre-launch mode, leading to an abnormal price surge between 21:36 and 21:45. The issue was completely resolved before 21:45, confirming it was an internal configuration error and not an external attack.
