Strategy and Notes
For those short on time, simply holding an invite code and trading small amounts is enough to maintain basic participation. Earning a referral code, however, requires $100,000 in cumulative volume, which needs real capital.
On cost-effectiveness, token distribution is still unconfirmed. Only use surplus capital, and factor in the fees and locked-up funds needed to reach the $100,000 threshold beforehand.
Creating multiple accounts to invite each other is a classic sybil (multiple fake account detection) pattern. Official rules are not published, but it's best avoided.
Volume has jumped from $100 million on April 22 to $1 billion on May 26, showing rising attention. As more people join, the benefit from your referral network may get diluted.
There are also cases where it's better not to join. Those with limited capital who can't trade large sums frequently will find it hard to reach a referral code. Anyone without an invite code simply cannot participate at this stage.
FAQ
Can I still join now? Since it's invite-only, you need a code from an existing user. Whether an official waitlist exists is not announced.
How much money do I need? You need $100,000 in cumulative trading volume to earn one referral code. The minimum trade size itself is not announced.
How do I check if I'm eligible? Open the「Network」tab on your dashboard and check whether an invite code appears there.
Conclusion
Start by checking whether you already have an invite code, and if not, ask an existing participant for one.
