Omni-chain Referral Program Adjustments

Three weeks ago, our Omni-chain Referrals went live, which enables referrers to passively earn LVL from their referred traders in a chain agnostic way. A trader can trade on both Arbitrum and BNB chain with rebates and discounts still distributed as normal.

Last week, we launched a UI overhaul and introduced changes to the way that the referral system works at its core.

Users are now able to track their progress with the referral tiers, and easily see how much in fees their traders are generating, along with how much LVL they are passively earning.

To support the organic growth of LEVEL, Users are now also able to apply for the WHITELIST. This Whitelist allows referrers to access higher rebate and discount rates than basic referrers. This feature has been introduced to help to reduce the amount of self-referring that typically takes place on Decentralised Exchanges.

Tier Adjustments:

Tier 1:

Requires at least:
• 5 Traders
• $2,000 fees paid per week

Whitelisted Referrer
 — Referrer Rebate: 5%
 — Trader Discount: 5%

Regular Referrer
 — Referrer Rebate: 2%
 — Trader Discount: 2%

Tier 2:

Requires at least:
• 15 Traders
• $10,000 fees paid per week

Whitelisted Referrer
 — Referrer Rebate: 7%
 — Trader Discount: 7%

Regular Referrer
 — Referrer Rebate: 3%
 — Trader Discount: 3%

Tier 3:

Requires at least:
• 30 Traders
• $50,000 fees paid per week

Whitelisted Referrer
 — Referrer Rebate: 12%
 — Trader Discount: 9%

Regular Referrer
 — Referrer Rebate: 5%
 — Trader Discount: 3%

Platform Metrics & Stats

BNB Chain & Arbitrum

Market Watch

Last week, the cryptocurrency market showed stability as Bitcoin and Ethereum saw slight declines. Bitcoin closed down by 0.9% at around $30.2K, and Ethereum fell by approximately 2.3% to about $1.9K. This week has not started in the greens, with BTC slipping to below $29K for a moment.

Regulatory developments in US included job ads related to CBDCs from the Federal Reserve, sparking controversy, and a proposal to back the US dollar with Bitcoin by US Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In legislation, the CANSEE Act raised concerns in the DeFi community, while Ripple's XRP enjoyed a surge following a legal victory against the SEC. Traders now await economic indicators such as the FOMC meeting and Consumer Price Index data for July, which could impact the crypto market in the coming weeks.
