How to buy ASTEROID (Asteroid Shiba) on Ethereum
Asteroid Shiba (ASTEROID) is a meme coin on Ethereum, with its main pool created on 2024-09-10 (2.1 years ago). This guide is generated from MemeSwap's live token data on 2026-11-01: what the token is, where its liquidity sits, the risk flags the security scan raised, and the steps to buy it with your own wallet.
What ASTEROID is
Asteroid Shiba trades under the symbol ASTEROID on Ethereum. Its main venue is Uniswap on Ethereum, an open pool venue. Its main pool was created on 2024-09-10, so it is 2.1 years old at the time of writing. It has 28,357 holders, a market capitalisation of $5.08M, and $189.8K of trading volume in the last 24 hours across 223 buys and 181 sells. The price moved up 55.3% over that day.
The contract address is 0xf280b16ef293d8e534e370794ef26bf312694126. That address, not the name, is the only unique identifier: copies of a popular symbol appear within minutes of a launch. How to verify a token contract explains the check. The chain explorer for Ethereum is etherscan.io.
Where the liquidity sits
The main pool holds $965.9K on Uniswap on Ethereum (pool 0x76A411f14A704099Ba476CE8dFFC288a53295218). That depth decides what a trade costs: a $100 buy is 0.01% of the pool and a $1,000 buy is 0.10%, and price impact grows with that share. Swaps through MemeSwap are routed by the KyberSwap aggregator, which quotes across every pool it knows and shows the price impact before you sign. Market cap is 5x the liquidity: the headline valuation is well above the money that can actually leave the pool, which is normal for meme coins and is why the last price is not a price you could sell the whole supply at.

Buying ASTEROID in MemeSwap, step by step
- Open the token page. Go to memeswap.fun/t/ethereum/0xf280b16ef293d8e534e370794ef26bf312694126. The page is built from the contract address, so what you see is ASTEROID at 0xf280b16ef293d8e534e370794ef26bf312694126 and not a token that merely shares the name. Check the address against the project's own channels once.
- Connect a wallet. Tap Buy and connect an EVM wallet (a browser extension, WalletConnect, or the MemeSwap wallet app). MemeSwap is non-custodial: the server builds an unsigned transaction and your wallet signs it; nothing leaves your wallet without your signature, and MemeSwap never sees your seed phrase.
- Pick the chain and fund it. ASTEROID lives on Ethereum, so the wallet needs ETH on Ethereum: the amount you want to spend plus gas. If your funds sit on another chain, use the bridge view first (Swap, then choose the source and destination chains) and wait for the bridge to complete before buying.
- Review the route. The review shows the provider (the KyberSwap aggregator), the quoted ASTEROID output, the minimum you will receive at your slippage setting, the price impact against the $965.9K pool, and MemeSwap's 85 bps fee as its own line. If the minimum received is far below the quote, lower the amount or raise slippage deliberately; see what slippage really costs.
- Sign and confirm. Your wallet displays the same transaction. Confirm the recipient, the asset and the amounts match the review, then sign. The token page updates once the transaction is included; a failed transaction can still consume gas.
The MemeSwap fee is 85 basis points (0.85%) of the quoted value on every chain, shown as its own line in the review; network gas, the provider's costs and any token tax are separate and also visible before you sign. Details on the fees page.
Risk flags, in plain words
These come from the security scan and on-chain data MemeSwap holds for ASTEROID as of 2026-11-01. They are point-in-time automated checks, not a safety rating; the token page shows the current values.
- Honeypot check passed at scan time: a sell path existed when the scan ran. That can change if the contract has privileged functions.
- Liquidity is locked (95.8% of the LP), which limits the classic pull-the-pool rug.
- The top five wallets hold 7.4% of supply, the top twenty 0.0%.
Whatever the flags say, decide before you buy what you would sell at, what you would cut at, and what you are willing to lose entirely. Most meme coins lose most of their value; why meme coins go to zero shows the four ways it happens.
Common questions
- How do I buy ASTEROID on Ethereum?
- Open the ASTEROID token page on MemeSwap, connect an EVM wallet (a browser extension, WalletConnect, or the MemeSwap wallet app), make sure the wallet holds ETH on Ethereum for the purchase and gas, enter the amount, review the route (quoted output, minimum received, price impact and the 0.85% MemeSwap fee), then sign the transaction in your wallet.
- What is the ASTEROID contract address?
- 0xf280b16ef293d8e534e370794ef26bf312694126 on Ethereum. Names and symbols are not unique, so paste the address rather than searching by name; the MemeSwap token page and the chain explorer both show it.
- Is ASTEROID safe to buy?
- No meme coin is safe. At the last scan: Honeypot check passed at scan time: a sell path existed when the scan ran. That can change if the contract has privileged functions. Liquidity is locked (95.8% of the LP), which limits the classic pull-the-pool rug. The top five wallets hold 7.4% of supply, the top twenty 0.0%. Only buy what you can afford to lose entirely.
