Earning Points
Trading Points
Trading earns 6 points per $1 of executed position size.
trading_points = opened_position_size_in_usd × 6
A $1,000 position earns 6,000 Trading points. Position size is collateral multiplied by leverage; points are not calculated from collateral or from the fee amount.
Points are credited only after the position opens on-chain and the applicable opening fee is paid. Cancelled, rejected, failed, and unfilled orders earn no Trading points. Check the trading interface for the current opening fee.
Vault LP Points
Vault liquidity earns 10 points per $1 per day while it remains deposited.
vault_points = eligible_usd_balance × days_held × 10
Each deposit is tracked by its amount and on-chain time. A deposit must remain in the Vault for at least five days for its points to become confirmed.
Staking Points
Staked ATLAS earns 1 point per ATLAS per day while it remains staked.
staking_points = eligible_atlas_balance × days_held × 1
Staking points begin accruing from day one. The protocol's staking maturation and unstaking burn schedule does not delay, pause, or reduce Points Program accrual. It only controls protocol-reward eligibility and the amount burned on unstaking.
Staking Points are a complementary benefit alongside protocol staking rewards. They are compared only within the independent Staking track, so a uniform Staking rate applies equally to every eligible staker and does not imply a fixed ATLAS conversion rate.
Pending and Confirmed
Vault LP and Staking points follow the same hold rule:
- Points begin accruing when the on-chain deposit or stake is observed.
- They appear as Pending during the first five days.
- Exiting before five days forfeits the pending points for the amount exited.
- After five days, earned points become Confirmed.
- Exiting after five days stops future accrual but keeps confirmed base points.
Season-Completion Bonus
Eligible Vault LP and Staking balances that remain deposited at the season-end snapshot receive a 25% bonus on their earned base points. Exiting earlier does not remove confirmed base points; it only removes eligibility for the completion bonus on the amount exited.
Why the Counter Moves Continuously
Authoritative LP and Staking accrual is calculated in 10-minute intervals from indexed on-chain activity. The interface may interpolate between intervals to show a smooth live estimate. The finalized points ledger, not the interpolated counter, is the source of truth.
