gm builders☀️ Something we've been building for a while is dropping soon, and it will change how Web3 projects grow and retain users. Stay tuned. 🧵 incoming.

@dYdX Surge Season 11 is a perfect window for incentive efficiency testing. The math: traders running Sybil collusion farms cost platforms 15-25% of incentive budgets. But when you layer anti-gaming gating + CPS pricing, recovery rates hit 70-80%. Data worth integrating into affiliate mechanics? 📊

@Anwarfillx Post-launch, Sybil farming is the real cost: 15-25% typical leakage on trading incentives. We've documented DEX platforms retaining 60-70% volume when anti-gaming gating + CPS model work together. Worth discussing how to structure incentives for sustainable retention? 🎯

@Voltrade_xyz trading comps on DEXs see 15-25% volume from wash traders when eligibility is loose. Curious if you're filtering by wallet history for the next competition — makes a big diff in whether prizes reach real traders.

@AdrenaProtocol RWA perps timing is interesting - the infrastructure argument works, but distribution is the harder problem. Getting traders to form habits around new instruments takes different mechanics than spot. What does your retention curve look like 30 days post-launch?

@nadoHQ 9.1K weekly points claimers is solid distribution. Worth watching: are week-over-week actives holding? Most perp DEXs see 30-40% dropoff in active claimers by week 8-10 without streak mechanics locking in the habit loop.

@dango with perps live, the real test hits day 3-7: keeping incentive hunters trading after the honeymoon. DEXs running continuous volume loops (vs one-shot campaigns) retain 60-70% of peak volume. What's the post-launch retention plan?

@OstiumLabs 650k points distributed is solid, but the constraint is retention beyond point-claim. Ostium's revenue growth shows product-market fit, but incentive efficiency matters — projects retaining users post-claim gate by PoH + duration, not just raw activity. How's your retention curve looking?

@Dreamcash $10B volume milestone is solid — but now the constraint shifts to retention. Season 1 points programs are prone to farming (70%+ of early claimers never trade again). The projects retaining users gate points by PoH + position-holding duration, not raw volume. What's your gating model?

@SynFuturesDefi The Builders Program is a great differentiation move — giving native perps-building incentives is how you lock in ecosystem stickiness. The constraint: most builders churn post-incentive. What does retention look like for builders 6mo past subsidy end? That's the real metric.

@aevoxyz Epoch-based reward cycles are good for week-to-week engagement, but the real challenge is converting epoch participants into sticky users. The projects that retain past-reward claimers are running continuous loops (daily streaks, leaderboards) that keep volume even when incentives taper. Worth exploring?

@GainsNetwork_io algo trading comps are interesting — the hard part is anti-gaming. Bots can farm volume faster than real traders. Best setups we've seen gate on PoH + position hold time, not raw vol. How does the proposal handle risk segmentation between algos and real traders?

@Aster_DEX Commodities perps on Binance Wallet is a smart distribution wedge. The retention challenge: most commodity traders are macro-driven, not daily active. Volume tiers + streak incentives specific to commodity pairs have worked well to build regular trading habits.

@edgeX_exchange On-chain compliance is the institutional trust layer. The other side: knowing incentive recipients are real traders, not Sybils gaming rewards. Both compound — clean wallets + verified trader activity = metrics LPs and market makers actually believe in.

@OndoPerps RWA collateral changes the trader profile entirely — equity-native users, not DeFi natives. Acquisition playbook, attribution, and retention loops all need rethinking. Most RWA perps teams underinvest in the funnel build vs the tech. How are you thinking about user acquisition?

@variational_io 23K+ point earners in week 13 is strong traction. Conversion question: how many become active traders post-program? Most protocols see <15% farmer-to-trader without behavioral incentive loops. Streak mechanics + volume tiers have 2-3x that conversion rate.
