Long-Term Support FAQ
What does long-term support (LTS) mean?
NOTEThe Astroport contracts on Terra and Neutron and the app at app.astroport.fi stay live. Security fixes come first, and no new features are planned beyond what LTS needs. Governance is retired and there are no ASTRO emissions. Protocol fees go to ASTRO burns, yASTRO stakers and the Development Fund. Read more in Long-Term Support.
Which chains does Astroport support?
NOTETerra (phoenix-1) and Neutron (neutron-1). Sei, Injective, Osmosis and Terra Classic are no longer supported by Astroport.
What happened on Neutron in September 2026?
NOTEOn 2026-09-22, a Neutron governance proposal (Neutron prop 9) took control of eight Astroport contracts on Neutron and drained 370.3M ASTRO from xASTRO staking, plus the assets of six pools. Neutron halted and restarted on 2026-09-25, and the funds were returned to a recovery multisig. The recovery was completed by 2026-11-03. See Long-Term Support.
Who runs Astroport now?
NOTEAn "Astroport - Contributors" DAO on each chain, built on DAO DAO. On Neutron it acts through the Assembly contract and on Terra through the satellite contract, which remain the owners of the protocol contracts. Emergency multisigs remain as emergency owners, and the Astroport Development Fund DAOs pay for infrastructure and security. See Who runs the protocol.
xASTRO FAQ
What happened to my xASTRO?
NOTExASTRO is retired. It has no value and can't be redeemed, and xASTRO staking no longer accepts deposits or withdrawals. Every wallet that held xASTRO before the incident was paid in ASTRO instead.
At what rate were xASTRO holders paid?
NOTE1.3402 ASTRO per xASTRO: exactly 370,318,691.388430 ASTRO / 276,322,268.374898 xASTRO, the rate at Neutron block 61,633,114, before the incident. Terra balances were taken at Terra block 22,948,000.
Do I need to claim my xASTRO payout?
NOTENo. The payouts were sent automatically and are finished: 1,788 wallets on Neutron received 327.3M ASTRO (including refunds of 4.99M ASTRO to people who deposited after the incident) and 57 wallets on Terra received 47.9M ASTRO. xASTRO held through contracts (vaults, LP positions, ve3, Eclipse) was looked through and paid to the underlying wallets. DAOs were paid at their own addresses.
What about vxASTRO?
NOTEvxASTRO no longer votes or directs emissions. Existing positions simply unwind through their normal unlock.
yASTRO FAQ
What is yASTRO?
NOTEyASTRO is staked ASTRO on Terra. Stake ASTRO at app.astroport.fi/yastro and receive yASTRO 1:1. Each week a quarter of Terra's protocol fees is paid to yASTRO holders in USDC.inj. yASTRO has no governance role. See yASTRO.
How are yASTRO rewards paid?
NOTEyASTRO rewards are paid weekly. The Terra Maker deposits USDC.inj into yASTRO, and each week's deposits stream per second over the following week (weeks start Monday 00:00 UTC) to yASTRO holders, pro rata to their balance. Claim them at any time from the Rewards Center in the app.
How long does unstaking take?
NOTE7 days. Unbonding ASTRO earns nothing. Once the 7 days have passed, withdraw your ASTRO in the app.
Is yASTRO available on Neutron?
NOTENo, yASTRO is on Terra only. Neutron's protocol fees are used entirely to buy and burn ASTRO.
Token FAQ
What is the ASTRO supply?
NOTEThe supply started at 1,000,000,000 ASTRO and was 696,235,077.66 ASTRO on 2026-11-04. It only goes down: ASTRO can't be minted anymore (the denom admin is the ASTRO burner contract, which can only burn), and protocol fees buy and burn ASTRO. See Supply and Allocation.
Are there still ASTRO emissions?
NOTENo. ASTRO emissions to pools have ended. Anyone can still add external incentives to a pool. See Astro Incentives.
Can I still vote with ASTRO?
NOTENo. Astroport governance is retired: there is no ASTRO, xASTRO or vxASTRO voting, no token holder proposals, no emissions voting and no tributes (bribes).
Which ASTRO do I need on Terra?
NOTEThe IBC ASTRO from Neutron (ibc/8D8A7F7253615E5F76CB6252A1E1BD921D5EDB7BBAAF8913FB1C77FF125D9995). The old ASTRO CW20 on Terra is legacy, and converting it to IBC ASTRO no longer works.
What is the difference between ASTROC and ASTRO?
NOTEAstroport initially launched on the original Terra network (Terra Classic) with the ASTROC (ASTRO Classic) token. ASTRO was launched later and is a separate token; there is no bridge between them. Astroport no longer supports Terra Classic.
Was there an ICO?
NOTEAstroport did not have an ICO. Instead, ASTROC was distributed through a lockdrop, and ASTRO was distributed through an airdrop to ASTROC holders.
Who were the Initial Astro Builders?
NOTEThe development of the protocol occurred through a joint venture involving Delphi Labs, Terraform Labs, Attic Lab and WE3 (a decentralized design collective) and their respective service providers.
dApp FAQ
Can I withdraw trading fees from a pair without withdrawing liquidity?
NOTENo. Trading fees stay in the pool and increase the value of your LP tokens, so you receive them when you withdraw your liquidity.
What is a withdraw-only pool?
NOTESix Neutron pools drained in the September 2026 incident (dATOM/USDC, NTRN/USDC, dATOM/ATOM, USDC/DYDX, wstETH/WETH and axlUSDC/USDC) were refilled with the returned assets and made withdraw-only. They allow balanced withdrawals only, with no swaps and no deposits. If your LP tokens are staked in Incentives, unstake them first, then withdraw.
Does the protocol mitigate frontrunning?
NOTEThe Astroport protocol does not mitigate frontrunning. Similar to other DEXs, traders can have their orders frontrun.
Can flashloan attacks be applied to the protocol, and if so, are those flashloan attack risks mitigated?
NOTEAnyone can take out a flashloan from another protocol and then use the borrowed funds to trade on Astroport. Nothing in the Astroport contracts prevents this type of behavior as it is considered valid.
How do I report a security issue?
NOTEAstroport no longer runs a bug bounty. To report a vulnerability, contact the team on the Astroport Discord. Don't post details of a vulnerability in public channels. See Security.
