StandX Discord Townhall Summary
1. Main Focus: December & Upcoming Rewards
- Grand Trading Rewards are the major highlight coming in December.
- Unlike current points (mainly for DUSD holders), the new campaign will reward traders, including:
- Active trading
- Holding open positions
- Placing liquidity orders on the order book (unique StandX feature)
2. StandX Recap for New Members
- StandX is a next-gen Perpetual DEX powered by DUSD, a native yield-bearing stablecoin.
- Users earn yield on all margin inside the perps wallet.
- Trading pairs are denominated in DUSD, not USDT/USDC.
- Built by the original Binance Futures founding team (Justin, AG, etc.).
- DeFi perps are the future → StandX was created to bring institutional-level perps infrastructure into decentralization.
3. Mainnet Launch — Key Updates
Mainnet launched last week:
- Extremely smooth launch (no downtime).
- 50M+ trading volume on day 1.
- New features live:
- TPSL (Take Profit / Stop Loss)
- Advanced limit orders (post-only / add-liquidity-only)
- Reminder: Mainnet uses real money → no more testnet tDUSD.
More features and improvements will continue rolling out.
4. Thanksgiving Points Boost (Active Now)
-
For the final 9 days (till Dec 11):
1.5x multiplier for DUSD holdings in:
- Perps wallet
- Vaults
-
After the event → multiplier returns to 1.2.
This stage specifically rewards holders before trading rewards go live.
5. Vaults Explained — How They Generate Yield
Vault = a simple way for users to share the upside of market making.
When depositing DUSD into vaults:
- Funds act as market-making margin on StandX order books.
- Vault revenue has three sources:
- Market-making profit (spread)
- A portion of trading commissions
- DUSD stablecoin yield
Important note:
- Market making is not risk-free.
- Vaults may incur temporary losses during large price moves.
Vault TVL is growing fast (passed 28M during the call).
6. Additional Ways to Earn Points
Aside from trading and holding:
- Referrals
- Referrer earns 5% of their friend’s points.
- Referred user gets +5% boost.
- Swapping for DUSD gives a small amount of points but:
