Sai Points: Get Rewarded Every Time You Trade

Trade. Earn Points. Rise Through the Rankings.

Trade. Earn Points. Rise Through the Rankings.

Sai Points rewards you for trading on Sai and contributing to the community. Every qualifying trade, completed bounty, and referral contributes to your points. The more you trade, the more you earn. Points convert to USDC at the end of the season.

If you already trade on Sai, this is how your activity starts working for you. If you’re new, there’s no better time to start.

Timeline

Activity, PnL, and weekly streaks are tracked per season. A season lasts one month (four weeks). The points pool settles at season close.

How it works

Points are cumulative per season. The points pool is distributed by your share of total points on the leaderboard for that season.

Earn for every dollar of volume. Boost your winnings by staying active and keeping your trading streak.

See below for how you can climb the points leaderboard.

Organic trading…show us the volume ;)

Organic trading activity

Season activity bonus…loyalty, loyalty, loyalty

Trading activity can accrue season multipliers for reaching per-week tiers or targets. For example, trading just $7.5K in volume in any week adds a global 2.5% multiplier to your season points. Trading $1M in volume increases the bonus to 10%. These multipliers stack and can be earned every week.

Weekly tier bonus activity

Example: Trading $1M in volume every week of the 30-day season would result in a 40% increase on all points earned.

Worked example calculation: A trader trades in weeks 1, 2, and 4 and qualifies for different volume tiers.

W1: 10K volume (Normie) --> +2.5%
W2: 55K volume (Degen) --> +5%
W3: 0 volume (No tier bonus) --> 0.0%
W4: 1M volume (Saicho) --> +10%


Total volume = 1,065,000 volume
Tier bonus = 2.5% + 5% + 0.0% + 10% = 17.5%


Total points = 1,065,000 volume * 1.175 (tier bonus)
= 1,251,375 points

Referral bonus…bring your friends!

Specific weighting of points distribution is set by the Sai team and may adjust at any time to account for new market launches, campaigns, or anti-sybil measures. The timeline of the points season may also be extended at the team’s discretion.

Using third-party trading tools, strategy automation, or copy-trading platforms is permitted, provided no wash trading occurs. Wash trading means being the controlling party on both sides of a trade, directly or through coordinated accounts. Wallets clustered to the same funding source are flagged and excluded, so wallet farming does not work.

Rules and Eligibility Criteria

The competition will enforce rules against abusive practices and set minimum requirements for trades to qualify:

  • How to Enter: Any user of the Sai platform is automatically eligible to receive Sai Points based on the points criteria.
  • Participant Eligibility: The points program is open to all traders who are at least 18 years old and are not residents of restricted jurisdictions, as set forth in Sai’s Terms of Use. Traders from the United States or other sanctioned regions are not eligible to participate. By entering, participants confirm that they follow all applicable local laws and the platform’s terms of use.
  • Unique Accounts Only: Each individual may participate with one account. Any form of sybil attack, including using multiple accounts by the same person, is strictly prohibited. Only genuine, unique user accounts are eligible for prizes.
  • No Wash Trading or Fake Volume: Wash trading, self-dealing, and fake volume generation are forbidden. Trades must reflect authentic market activity. Self-trades or coordinated trades between colluding accounts to inflate volume or PnL result in immediate disqualification. The platform monitors trade patterns and may disqualify or ban accounts that show abusive behavior.
  • No Bot Manipulation: Algorithmic trading is allowed, but malicious bot-driven manipulation of the points program is prohibited. Fair-use trading bots are allowed. If a bot engages in any of the forbidden tactics above, those trades are void.
  • Minimum Holding Time: For volume criteria, Sai may require a minimum position holding time, such as two to four minutes, for a trade to qualify. Sai may exclude positions held open for less than that time to discourage instantaneous round-trip trades that inflate volume.
  • Leaderboard Updates: The points leaderboards are updated regularly, such as daily or in real time on the platform dashboard, so participants can track their standings.
  • Reward Distribution: If the Sai team distributes rewards for points, it will provide instructions for receiving them. The team may distribute rewards within a reasonable timeframe, periodically, at irregular intervals, or not at all.
  • Integrity and Auditing: Sai monitors the points program. Any participant who engages in prohibited behavior, including sybil attacks or wash trading, is immediately disqualified and forfeits any rewards. The organizers may audit trading activity and adjust or remove suspicious entries.
  • Participation Is at User’s Own Risk: Trading, especially perps trading, is inherently risky. Participation is at your own risk. Sai is not responsible for loss of assets or value. If you are not experienced with similar trading platforms, you should not participate. Even experienced users may lose all of their cryptocurrency assets or value.
  • Sai Has the Right to Alter the Program: Sai may alter this program for any reason, including changes affecting points already earned. Reasons may include marketing campaigns, user behavior, new product launches, or changes to incentivized activity.
  • Sai Is the Sole Decision Maker: Sai may disqualify any participant who does not follow the spirit or letter of these rules. Sai may also disqualify any participant it deems ineligible for any reason at its sole discretion. All Sai decisions are final.
  • You Are Responsible for Your Own Legal and Tax Situation: You are responsible for any tax or legal issues that result from participating in the program. By participating, you represent that no jurisdiction with authority prohibits your participation.
  • Sai’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy Apply: If you do not agree to Sai’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, you must not participate. Sections 21 to 25 of Sai’s Terms of Use, covering indemnification, governing law and jurisdiction, arbitration, class arbitration waiver, limitation on time to file claims, and waiver and severability, are incorporated by reference and apply to this competition.
  • These Terms Supersede Promotional Statements: These terms, along with Sai’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, are the only agreement between Sai and you. Promotional statements by any party do not constitute an agreement.
