MegaPop, PopDEX's first core trader rewards system, launches with the exchange's open beta on October 19 at 3AM UTC. Weekly on-chain draws settled by a Bitcoin block hash determine winners, which the project says cannot be influenced and can be verified by anyone. The prize pool is funded by 40% of net protocol trading fees and starts at 150,000 USDT, with an additional 100,000 USDT added once 300,000 cumulative Pop Tickets are reached. Eligible trading earns Pop Tickets in real time, with 2x tickets offered during the first six weeks.

    Been bullish on @popdex_ since day one They’ve done pretty well during private beta, yet I don’t see nearly as much hype around PopDEX as Arcus or TxFlow Some numbers so far: ✅ Over $4B in trading volume ✅ 5 rounds of USDT rewards for traders and contributors, with top users… https://t.co/mstECKOU8q

    参与一个 Perp DEX，交易成本是每天都在付的，积分最后能兑现多少，却往往要等很久才知道。 手续费、点差、滑点，再加上资金占用，这笔账能不能算得过来，直接影响交易员是否愿意长期留下。 刚看到 @popdex_ 在 Open Beta 前披露的信息，它强调的 Trader First，有几个点值得好好聊聊。… https://t.co/cedU0LgX1x

    看了不少 Perp DEX，感觉现在平台都在卷积分和交易量，但对于真正做交易的人来说，盘口深度、成交滑点和手续费才是长期需要考虑的东西，毕竟交易成本都是实打实的钱 最近重点关注了下 @popdex_ ，采用 CLOB 订单簿和统一账户设计。我比较在意的是 BTC/USDT…
