Introducing the Hydranet Core DEX Trading Competition

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the Hydranet Core DEX Trading Competition, starting on 31th May 2024 at 21:00 CET and ending at 19th June 2024 at 20:00 CET. This exciting event is designed to encourage trading on the Hydranet Core DEX, inviting both seasoned and new users to experience the unique benefits of our decentralized exchange platform. Participants will have the chance to earn attractive rewards and contribute to increasing the overall trading volume, thus benefiting the Hydranet ecosystem.

Why Participate in the Trading Competition?

The Hydranet Core DEX stands out in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space due to its innovative use of the Lightning Network and Vector Network. This combination enables cross-chain, instant, scalable, and private swaps, making trading faster and more secure. Here are some key reasons to participate:

- Experience Cutting-Edge Technology: Engage with our Core DEX, which leverages advanced technologies to offer a superior trading experience.

- Earn HDN Rewards: Participants will be incentivized through rewards in HDN, distributed according to a predefined reward structure.

- Contribute to Hydranet’s Growth: Increased trading volume generates more fees, directly benefiting the Hydranet ecosystem.

Current Limitations

To accommodate more users in the trading competition, we have implemented some temporary limits. These are in place to ensure a smooth and efficient trading experience for all participants:

- 300 USD: Maximum channel rental size

- 1000 USD: Maximum order size

- 24 HOURS: Maximum channel rental duration

- 1 HUB: Due to the limits of the Vector Network

Additionally, we experienced issues with our Arbitrum nodes and had to switch to Ankr. This has temporarily increased the swap duration to about 10 seconds. Once the syncing is done, we will switch back to our own nodes and provide 2–3 second swaps again.

Supported Trading Pairs

We are excited to announce that during the competition, we will be providing liquidity for the following trading pairs:
- BTC/AUSDT
- HDN/AUSDT

This will ensure a smoother trading experience and better liquidity for all participants.

Reward Structure

The rewards will be distributed across multiple tiers based on trading volume. The reward structure is designed to balance attracting participants to create high volumes within the next two weeks:

  • Tier 1: > 1,000 USD trading volume — 500 HDN reward
  • Tier 2: > 2,000 USD trading volume — 1,025 HDN reward
  • Tier 3: > 5,000 USD trading volume —2,600 HDN reward
  • Tier 4: > 10,000 USD trading volume — 5,500 HDN reward
