Season 1 has started. And if you are a Kraken Pro trader, you’re already in.
What are ink dots?
Ink Points allow us to recognize our most active Kraken Pro customers. Points accumulate based on your activity on Kraken Pro and open the door to the Ink ecosystem and all it has to offer.
The more you engage, the more points you accumulate. The more points you accumulate, the higher your level.
We know what you’re thinking: Okay, but what am I actually getting?
Excellent question. Let’s move on.
What’s live now
Ink points accumulate through activity on Kraken Pro. If you use Pro, you earn points now. In fact, the clock started on April 6 and the first points lost will take place Today.
Weekly boosts add another layer. Each week, we’ll let you know which specific activity categories will receive a points boost, giving Pro customers a reason to stay alert, stay engaged, and stay ahead of the curve.
So there is information. About points. That you accumulate. For reasons that will soon become clear.
What’s coming
We will announce the full structure shortly. There are six levels. This is a real number that we are allowed to say.
We’re going to tell you a lot more than we’re telling you now. Soon. Very soon. Like really, really soon.
Concerning the levels: they are going up. You start somewhere and through constant activity you progress. The first levels are about building habits. It’s in the middle that the competition starts to get real.
The highest level? This is where the most active traders on Kraken Pro find themselves. And it shows: your level will be visible in the season leaderboard, which means that your position is more than a number. It’s a statement.
What are points actually used for?
We’re very glad you asked this question, because it gives us the opportunity to tell you that we can’t tell you yet.
We don’t do this to be cute. We are approaching this announcement with all the grace and transparency we can currently afford, which is to say: a wink, an ellipsis and the sincere thought that it will be worth it.
So start accumulating points by trading on Kraken Pro. If you haven’t started yet, start now. You’ll be glad you did.
