# Trading $CDL on Aster

## <sup>Spot trading is now live</sup>

Aster began as a decentralized perpetuals exchange. Today, with the launch of spot trading, we take the first major step in transforming Aster into a one-stop onchain trading platform, offering both leveraged trading and long-term portfolio building.

### <sup>First launch: $CDL spot trading pairs</sup>

We’re starting with $CDL (Creditlink) as the first spot token listed on Aster. With this launch, you can claim your airdrop and begin trading $CDL right away. This is just the start, and more high-quality token listings will follow soon.

Once trading for CDL opens, you will be able to trade these two spot pairs:

* CDL / USD1
* CDL / FORM

To ensure smooth trading and minimal slippage upon launch, Aster Spot liquidity will be deployed with:

* $200,000 worth of $USD1
* $200,000 worth of $FORM
* 40,000,000 $CDL

This guarantees the best prices and instant execution right from launch.
