# Earn as a Trader - AX Points

**AX Points** are a points-based incentive system designed to align **long-term participation** with the growth of the Antarctic ecosystem. They provide a transparent way to recognize meaningful contribution while keeping the protocol’s incentive design **rules-based** and measurable.

Prior to public launch, exposure to the **ATTX token** was primarily available through private market participation. **AX Points** broaden access to future ecosystem reward programs by recognizing users who contribute from day one—across both trading activity and non-trading actions that strengthen the network.

Your accumulated **AX Points** may be used to determine your relative share across eligible incentive programs, including future airdrop seasons and long-term reward pools (where applicable). Points are computed from verified activity and contribution signals. Contribution quality may unlock **multipliers**, which can increase point accrual or program allocation as defined by the applicable rules, without changing the underlying fee schedule.

AX Points are not limited to trading. As AX expands, additional earning routes may include **providing liquidity** (e.g., AMLP/AHLP participation), **governance participation**, **referrals**, **tooling or integration contributions**, and **community participation** that supports ecosystem development. The objective is to acknowledge and provide recognition for those who contribute to building, improving, and sustaining the AX network.

**Important Notes**

* **AX Points are not a token** and are intended solely as a mechanism for tracking participation within the ecosystem.
* Any potential future benefits associated with AX Points are **not guaranteed**, may be subject to eligibility criteria, and may vary by program.
* Point rules, multipliers, and eligible activities may be **updated** over time to preserve **market integrity** and prevent abuse.
* Eligibility and enforcement standards for abnormal behavior (e.g., **multi-accounting**, **self-referrals**, **wash trading**) are governed by the platform’s **Risk Control Rules** page.
