Introducing Fee Tiers, $DIME Utility, and NFT Boosts We are rolling out volume-based fee tiers, $DIME staking discounts, and $DIME fee payments, while keeping maker fees at 0% across the board. Retail traders remain first-class citizens on Paradex. We believe retail should always get the best deal, which is why retail fees are lower than pro fees at every tier. Why It Matters: The new structure introduces separate fee schedules for Retail (VIP tiers) and Pro, each based on 14-day rolling trading volume, with further discounts available through $DIME staking and fee payment in $DIME. The result is simple: retail users get the best pricing on the exchange. $DIME now has concrete utility. Users can stake it for meaningful fee discounts, or use it as a payment currency to unlock even lower effective fees. Stack your discounts (up to 70% off base fees): + $DIME Staking – up to 30% off. Lock more, save more. 24hr unstaking period applies. + $DIME fee payment – initially 40% off. Opt to pay fees in $DIME for additional discounts – stacks with staking discounts. + NFT Boost. Hold a MoneyBadgers or ShizoPunks NFT to instantly unlock VIP 1 and accelerate toward higher tiers. + Pro Taker fee discounts subject to a minimum taker fee rate of 1.75 bps Key Dates + April 22, 6 PM SGT: New fee structure goes live. $DIME fee-payment discount starts immediately. + April 22-29: Transition week. 1. All Retail users get VIP 6 taker fees with Diamond Tier staking DC → 0.7 bps 2. All Pro users get Special Pro tier taker fees with Diamond Tier staking DC →1.96 bps 3. Users can turn on “Pay with DIME” for an additional 40% off + April 29, 1 PM SGT: Standard tiers kick in. Dig In: Full tier tables at [docs.paradex.trade/trading/tradin…]


$DIME Tokenomics Update 🔥 + Introducing $DIME TAG Center + Removed ~7% of $DIME from Circulation via Buybacks, reducing $DIME's circulating supply to 19.7% + Re-locked Paradigm Shareholders And Paradex Team + Updated $DIME Holdings by Tokenomics Allocation + Looking Ahead



Paradigm has acquired 14M+ $DIME (~5.5% circulating / ~1.4% total supply) in the past 1.5 weeks via open market purchases and will continue to support Paradex and $DIME, including by periodically acquiring $DIME. Combined with the DIME Assistance Fund, 16M $DIME (~6.3% of circulating / ~1.6% of total supply) has been bought back since TGE. All buybacks can now be tracked on app.paradex.trade/dime-fund

Paradex remains fully committed to building the DeFi supercenter and driving long-term value for the $DIME ecosystem. This week, we will: + Expand $DIME to additional blockchains and exchanges + List RWAs for perps with more to follow + Roll out expanded MCP and CLI functionality for advanced agentic trading + Share further updates on $DIME buybacks and additional value-accretive initiatives What makes Paradex unique has not changed: Paradex is the only place to trade perps, spot, and options with zero fees and privacy-preserving infrastructure. Fee sensitivity may vary across users, but agents will ruthlessly optimize for best execution, fees, privacy and capital efficiency. That is why Paradex is focused on building the best infrastructure and tools for agentic trading. Because market news and narratives materially influence sentiment and flows, Paradex will also soon rebrand @Paradex_ECO to create a more direct link between real-time developments and onchain trading opportunities. Paradex is building for the long term, for users, for agents, for privacy, and for the continued growth of the $DIME ecosystem. Paradexio 🔥
