# Contribution Score

During the pre-launch phase, the system emphasizes early traders adoption and community engagement to reward and recognize early support. Antarctic has a sophisticated scoring system that balances several factors, including, but not limited to:

| Factors                                                                                               | Explanation                                                                                                                                                          |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p>Accumulated liquidations </p><p>in the past 30 days</p><p>(if account performance is below 0%)</p> | If you’ve been liquidated, that activity contributes to your score. It’s our way of recognizing your contribution and helping you bounce back.                       |
| <p>Account performance % in the past 30 days</p><p>(if account performance is above 0%)</p>           | If you are consistently making profits, you deserve credit for it.                                                                                                   |
| <p>Referred trading volume </p><p>in the past 30 days</p>                                             | If your referrals are actively trading, you get credit for their volume too.                                                                                         |
| Weighted average leverage used                                                                        | This factor considers your average leverage across trades, weighted by position size - recognizing traders who actively engage with leverage as part of the strategy |
| Trading volume in the past 30 days                                                                    | Recent volume matters most. Your score reflects what you’ve done lately, so keep trading to stay on top.                                                             |
| Profile and social completion                                                                         | If you are engaged with our content, you deserve recognition                                                                                                         |
| LP participation                                                                                      | If you contribute to the LP, you are helping AX to power all trades. Of course, you serve to be rewarded for your contribution.                                      |

Once traders have their contribution score, they are ranked into tiers. A trader must fall within a certain percentile of all traders on the platform and receive a multiplier to their base score based on their ranking  — for example, reaching top 5% of all traders will greatly increase your multiplier compared to if you are within the top 40% of all traders.

As an overall example, say that a trader has a trading volume of 10000$ dollars and a score that gives them a 1.1X boost. After 30 days 11000 points will be credited to their account.&#x20;

Ultimately, our system is designed to recognize and reward trading volume and consistent traders at its core - so if you are here to trade, you are already on the path to capturing the most value!
