Item	Detail
Time	~10 min to first trade
Cost	Trading capital (USDC)
Expected value	🔥🔥🔥 tokenless × surging volume
Difficulty	Medium
Signature	Zero fees for standard accounts

What''s actually new

• zk-proved matching: order handling is cryptographically verifiable — trust-minimized exchange design
• Zero fees favor small, frequent trading
• Large institutional raises reported — deep backing

Earning points

1. Connect via the official site (invite codes required at times — a referral link is the reliable door)
2. Deposit USDC and trade
3. Weekly point distributions, apparently volume- and consistency-based

Zero fees make small round-trips nearly free — among the best point-per-cost ratios in perps today.

Efficient play

• Split the same weekly habit across the three flags: Hyperliquid, Aster, Lighter
• Exploit zero fees with small × frequent
• Stick to deep pairs; slippage is the real cost

Risks

• TGE timing/allocation unannounced — expectations lead reality
• Standard liquidation risk; keep leverage low
• Young-protocol smart-contract risk

FAQ

Q. Need an invite? Sometimes. Our referral link is the dependable entry.

Q. How does zero-fee make money? Institutional tiers and ecosystem plays, most likely. Users can simply enjoy it.

Q. No time for three perps? Prioritize tokenless over launched.

Bottom line

One action: enter via the referral link, deposit USDC, place the first trade. The zero-fee point window only lasts until TGE.
