Aspire (ASPIRE) Price, Charts & Market Data

Aspire (ASP) is the native asset of the Aspire platform, a protocol for creating and managing custom digital assets that operates on top of the gAsp (GASP) blockchain. The Aspire protocol uses embedded consensus to embed asset-related data into regular gAsp transactions, enabling secure and cost-efficient asset creation without requiring a separate blockchain.

ASP is a protocol-aware token that enables key functions within Aspire, including the creation and configuration of custom assets. It works alongside GASP, which handles network-level transaction fees on the underlying blockchain.

ASP is required to create new digital assets on the Aspire platform. A fixed fee of 10 ASP is necessary to issue any unique asset name. This mechanism is part of the protocol’s design to prevent spam and manage asset namespaces.

In addition to asset issuance, ASP is used to activate advanced features of the Aspire protocol. While GASP is needed to pay miner fees for embedding transactions into the gAsp blockchain, ASP is necessary for initiating protocol-level operations such as asset creation, distribution, transfer of ownership and configuration changes. Smart contract functionality on Aspire will also run on ASP.
