Dual-Point Economic System

Incentive Alignment Engine

1. Behavior Points: Activity-Based Rewards

Point Generation Mechanism

Funder Point Formula: Points_f = (Average Daily Balance × 0.5) + (Capital Utilization % × Vault Factor) Vault Factor: 1.2 for Investment Vault, 0.8 for Fund Vault

Trader Point Formula: Points_t = log10(Trade Volume) × 100 + (Borrowed Amount × 0.3)

2. HYPE Staking Points: Ecosystem Alignment

Value Flow Architecture

Staking Point Calculation: Points_s = (Staked HYPE × Days Staked) ÷ 100

Protocol Growth Rate = k × (Behavior Points^0.7) × (Staked HYPE^0.5) Where k = 0.15 protocol constant

6. Special Programs

Governance Integration

  • Voting Weight: 1 Platinum Point = 1 governance vote

  • Proposal Rights: 50,000+ points unlock submission privileges

  • Parameter Adjustment: Point holders vote on:

    • Fee structures

    • Vault allocations

    • New asset listings

7. Security & Transparency

Auditable Point System

  • All point calculations on-chain via HyperEVM

  • Real-time balance checks through dedicated precompile

  • Immutable history of point accrual and redemption

  • Quarterly Merkle proof distribution for airdrops

Anti-Manipulation Safeguards

  1. Activity Verification:

    • Trading volume cross-verified with HyperLiquid data

    • Funding balances require on-chain proof

  2. Sybil Attack Prevention:

    • Minimum $100 equivalent per account

    • Behavior anomaly detection

  3. Point Expiry:

    • 10% annual decay on inactive accounts

    • Full reset after 24 months dormancy

This dual-point economy creates a self-reinforcing ecosystem: active participants earn valuable rewards that reduce their costs and increase their capabilities, while protocol growth drives HYPE token value appreciation. The system aligns trader, funder, and protocol incentives into a cohesive growth engine that becomes stronger with increased participation.
