How to Earn Points

Points are earned through three activities:

1. Trading Volume Points

Earn 1 point per $1 traded (base rate):

• Buying positions earns points

• Selling positions earns points

• Points calculated on trade value

2. Deposit Points

Earn 1 point per $1 deposited (base rate):

• All deposit methods count

• Cross-chain, swap, and direct USDC

• Earned when deposit is credited

3. Referral Points

Earn 10% of your referrals' points:

• Automatic - no action needed

• Earn from both their volume and deposit points

• Forever, not just during Season 1

Tier Multipliers

Your points earn rate increases with your volume tier:

Tier	Volume Required	Multiplier
Bronze	$0+	1.0x
Silver	$100+	1.25x
Gold	$1,000+	1.5x
Diamond	$10,000+	2.0x

Multiplier Examples

Bronze Tier (1.0x):

• Trade $100 → Earn 100 points

• Deposit $50 → Earn 50 points

Diamond Tier (2.0x):

• Trade $100 → Earn 200 points

• Deposit $50 → Earn 100 points

Points Calculation

Formula

Points = Activity Amount × Base Rate × Tier Multiplier

Full Example

User: Gold tier (1.5x multiplier)
Trade: $500 buy order

Volume Points = $500 × 1 × 1.5 = 750 points
