Bitbase has officially launched ORIGIN, the inaugural season of its new Bitbase Points program, marking the first direct user-facing component of the exchange's broader Bitbase 2.0 initiative. The program is designed to reward ongoing participation across the platform, with a total of 1 million points distributed every week for the next 26 weeks.
The season runs until May 4, 2027, and existing users have already been credited points based on their past trading activity, ensuring that their historical engagement counts from the very start. This retroactive crediting underscores Bitbase's commitment to recognizing long-term user contributions rather than incentivizing short-term spikes in activity.
Part of Bitbase 2.0
ORIGIN is the first element of Bitbase 2.0 to reach users directly. Bitbase unveiled its 2.0 upgrade on November 2, featuring an enhanced app and website, along with a new brand identity centered on the tagline “Market Flows. We Focus.” This philosophy reflects the exchange's belief that while markets are inherently volatile, Bitbase prioritizes what endures for its users.
Applying this same principle to user engagement, ORIGIN rewards consistent, daily participation over a six-month period, rather than rewarding a single burst of activity. The program automatically enrolls all eligible users—both new and existing—with no separate registration required.
How Participation Is Counted
Points are allocated daily based on each participant's contribution, which is derived from four key sources: trading volume, assets held on Bitbase, consistent activity, and referrals. Because consistency is a core component, steady engagement accumulates over the season, amplifying rewards for regular users.
Referrals also play a significant role. A referrer receives an additional 25% of the contribution of each new user they directly bring to the platform, while the new user's own contribution remains unaffected. This structure incentivizes community growth without penalizing new participants.
Starting November 9, participants will also receive a shareable Trading Identity card that reflects their trading habits. A new card will be issued every Monday until the season concludes, providing ongoing recognition and a visual representation of each user's trading style.
Recognition That Continues Through the Season
“Bitbase 2.0 is about focus, and for our users, that means knowing their steady participation is recognized and credited,” said Nicholas Lo, Chief Business Officer at Bitbase. “That's why ORIGIN started by crediting what users had already done with us. It doesn't ask anyone to trade differently. It simply records the participation that's already there, every day, for the next six months.”
Users can track their points and rankings directly in the Bitbase app and on the website. Full program details are available at bitbase.com/points.
