Overview
The XP program recognizes active participation on Fairground through trading. Trading activity is measured across daily epochs, with XP distributed from a fixed pool each day. The more you participate in trading, the more opportunities you have to qualify for XP. XP accumulates over time and contributes to leaderboard standings. To maintain a fair environment, activity identified as Sybil behavior, self-trading, or similar manipulation may be excluded from XP calculations. All activity takes place using testnet funds. Testnet funds hold no monetary value.What is XP?
XP is a points system used to track participant activity on Fairground. XP may accrue through eligible trading activity and participation in the testnet and contributes to leaderboard rankings. XP is a promotional participation metric and may be modified, adjusted or discontinued at any time at the sole discretion of Fairground. Participation in XP and testnet activities does not confer any rights to tokens, digital assets, compensation or future rewards. XP has no monetary value and is not transferable or redeemable, and participation in XP or testnet activities does not create any entitlement or confer any rights to tokens, digital assets, compensation, or future rewards.What is an epoch?
An epoch is a 24-hour participation period during which eligible activity may result in XP being awarded. XP received based on your activities during each epoch contributes to your Season 2 standing.How the XP Program Works
XP is designed to recognize active participation across Fairground. The exact XP formula is not shared publicly and may include a combination of factors, including:- Trading activity - placing at least one order during an epoch may qualify for participation XP, and higher activity may contribute more to your overall total.
- PnL - profitable trading may contribute to your XP, but it is one of several factors considered. You do not need to be profitable every day to continue qualifying for XP.
- Rebates - liquidity rebates from providing depth also contribute.
- Contribution XP - eligible feedback submissions, bug reports, and product suggestions may qualify for bonus XP.

Participants who begin trading earlier will have more daily epochs in which to earn XP. However, XP distributions reset each epoch, so participants can continue earning XP throughout the program regardless of when they join.XP Distribution
How are XP points distributed?
