Sprint 3 of the dYdX Affiliate Booster Program is Here!

dYdX is excited to launch Sprint 3 of the dYdX Affiliate Booster Program, kicking off on 15 July at 12:00 UTC!

Based on community feedback from the first two sprints, there are some key updates to ensure the program remains fair, transparent, and focused on rewarding genuine trading activity.

What’s New for Sprint 3?

The ranking system has shifted from new traders to total referred trading volume from new traders.

Why?

This change directly addresses Sybil and anti-farming concerns and puts the focus where it matters most: on driving real trading activity.

Here’s how it works:

  • Affiliates will be ranked by the total cumulative trading volume generated by their newly referred users during Sprint 3.
  • The affiliate with the highest volume ranks 1st, the second-highest ranks 2nd, and so on.
  • No change to the prize pool, but now, quality matters more than ever.

How to Qualify

To appear on the leaderboard, you must:

  • Refer at least one new user during Sprint 3
  • Ensure your referred users generate a combined total of at least $10,000 in trading volume

Example:

  • You refer 2 new users
  • One trades $5,000, the other trades $5,000
  • You qualify with $10,000 cumulative volume

This shift rewards affiliates who bring in active, engaged traders, not just new user numbers.

Key Dates

  • Sprint 3 Launch: 15 July at 12:00 UTC
  • Sprint 3 Close: 22 July at 11:59 UTC
