PANAMA CITY, Panama — November 4, 2026 — Bitbase today launched ORIGIN, the first season of its Bitbase Points program, an initiative designed to reward sustained participation over time. Across the 26-week season, which ends on May 4, 2027, Bitbase will distribute 1,000,000 points each week, allocated daily according to each participant's contribution. Points-based loyalty seasons have become a common retention format among digital asset exchanges, and ORIGIN places that model on a longer horizon, measuring contribution across nearly six months rather than isolated bursts of activity.

Four Sources of Contribution

Each participant's contribution is drawn from four sources: trading, assets held on Bitbase, consistent activity, and referrals. Consistent activity is counted as a separate source, meaning day-to-day participation adds directly to a user's contribution. All eligible users are enrolled automatically, whether they are new to Bitbase or already active on the platform.

The referral component adds an incentive layer: for each new user referred directly, the referrer receives an additional 25% of that user's contribution, while the new user's own points remain unaffected.

Participants will also receive a Trading Identity card, a shareable summary of their trading style. The first cards will be issued on November 9, with new cards following each Monday for the remainder of the season — a fixed cadence that gives participants a regular rhythm to track as the 26 weeks unfold.

Existing Users Begin With Points Already Credited

Before the season began, Bitbase credited points to eligible existing users based on their earlier activity on the platform. As a result, these users enter ORIGIN with their prior activity already reflected in their points and ranking. For a first-season program, that retroactive credit removes a familiar friction point: participants who were active before launch do not begin from zero.

The First Program Under Bitbase 2.0

On November 2, the exchange introduced Bitbase 2.0, updating its brand, app, and website under the statement “Market Flows. We Focus.” ORIGIN is the first program to put that statement into practice, arriving just two days after the rebrand. While markets move continuously, Bitbase has chosen to assess participation across months rather than individual moments.

“We designed ORIGIN for users who participate consistently, not only during the busiest periods in the market,” said Nicholas Lo, Chief Business Officer at Bitbase. “Over a six-month season, that consistency carries weight. Our responsibility is to make sure every contribution is credited, from the first day of the season to the last.”

Points and rankings are available in the Bitbase app and at bitbase.com/points.
