Nado is a decentralized derivatives exchange (DEX) offering perpetual futures trading. See Nado's project page here for more details.

Event Details

1. Create an account on Nado and start trading (about 5 minutes, cost is gas only).
2. Place maker orders (limit orders placed on the order book). These count toward volume.
3. Place taker orders (market orders that execute instantly). These also count toward volume.
4. Hold positions to build up open interest (the total value of unclosed contracts).

Here's how the reward pool unlocks:

Weekly Volume	Reward Unlocked
At start	$50,000 (unlocked immediately)
At $1.05B	Additional rewards begin unlocking
At $2.45B	Remaining $50,000 fully unlocked

The exact formula for individual reward distribution has not been disclosed.

Strategy and Cautions

• Minimal route for busy readers: try one maker order and one taker order with a small amount.
• Cost-benefit: trade only within a range where fees don't eat your gains.
• Capital guidance: total weekly volume is in the billions, so one trader's extra volume barely moves the needle.
• Sybil risk: inflating volume with multiple accounts can violate terms and should be avoided.
• Practical note: no rush since it's ongoing, but watch for wider spreads near volume thresholds.
• When to skip: opening oversized positions purely for short-term reward hunting risks losses from fees or price swings.
