# Season 1: Expanse

{% hint style="warning" %}
Protocol's reserve the right to tweak slightly Mutagen distributed during our continuous monitoring process. Balancing is not an easy task, and although we did backtest on the data we got since we went live in September, it might not cover all cases.\
If we are to find some "game breaking" activity, we would step in to patch the issue.
{% endhint %}

Adrena's first full scale trading championship, the Expanse. Trade and climb the ranks to claim the throne and mark history as Adrena's first champion.\
\
Farm the daily and weekly quests for locking in some flat Mutagen rewards that will not only serve you to climb the ladder but also for the future Adrena Airdrop. \
Streaks, Mutagens & Mutations, Achievements with exclusive titles, size multipliers...\
\
Mutagen is an elusive resource that can only be generated through trading activity or through season mechanisms such as quests and streaks. Accumulate it through leverage trading to rank up in the upcoming season and also to earn shares the upcoming $ADX airdrop. Mutagens will start accruing on February 1st for the Season ranking, but will also be back generated for all your trading activity before that date (but counting for the airdrop only).

## Goals

* acquire new traders
* increase platform activity (specifically trading volume)
* propose a fun and rewarding event
* introduce the point system (**mutagen**) that will also be used for the future Airdrop (overlapping several seasons)
* introduce Achievements and Quests

## Monitoring

* In app live leaderboards will let you situate yourself against the competition
* Our usual database/chain activity ingestors/processors

## Design

This event was designed to include as many traders as possible (Size doesn’t matter 😉).

There will be a weekly ranking that will generate championship points based on the rank. The rank is based on the mutagens earned that week (**positions have to be opened and closed in this week**). You will move up and down the leaderboards depending on how you compare to other traders.

**Mutagen** will be used as the qualitative attribute this time (instead of PnL in the previous season).

Why Mutagen? \
\- points are much easier to tune, leaving some room for tweaks, than a raw value like PnL. Can reward not only performance but also (slightly) trading related activity.\
\- can work toward the future airdrop. Mutagens will accrue this seasons affecting the ranking on the leaderboard, they will also accrue on your profile for the multi-season spanning airdrop.

<mark style="background-color:green;">Mutagen accrual will be mainly tied to trading volume: you'll get mutagens for specific trading actions, and based on the volume at close (or liquidation) you'll receive a multiplier on these. Some reward will be flat and volume agnostic, in order to also reward active participation to the platform (specifically for the airdrop).</mark>\
\ <mark style="background-color:green;">The total trading volume is calculated by adding 'open position', 'increase position', and 'close position' values.</mark>&#x20;

<mark style="background-color:green;">Trade volume for the competition is only counted for trades that have CLOSED. Positions that are held open will not count towards your division or rank in the competition.</mark>

*e.g. If you are ranked 50th in the week, you would get 15 championship points.*

*e.g. If you open a $100k position and close it your total trading volume would be $200k.*&#x20;

## Quests, Mutagens and Final (close) Size multipliers

Mutagens distribution is designed around rewarding trading on the platform.\
Each trade will accrue mutagens, based of several factor: duration, PnL, mutations...\
At the close event (close or liquidation), the total score of that trade will be multiplied by the "size multiplier" to determine the final point value of a trade.&#x20;

### Final Size multipliers:

* $10-$1k size: <mark style="color:purple;">0.00025x to 0.05x</mark>
* $1k-$5k size: <mark style="color:purple;">0.05x to 1x</mark>
* $5k-$50k size: <mark style="color:purple;">1x to 5x</mark>
* $50k-$100k size: <mark style="color:purple;">5x to 9x</mark>
* $100k-$250k size: <mark style="color:purple;">9x to 17.5x</mark>
* $250k-$500k size: <mark style="color:purple;">17.5x to 25x</mark>
* $500k-$1M size: <mark style="color:purple;">25x to 30x</mark>
* $1M-$4.5M: <mark style="color:purple;">30x to 45x</mark>

Now these size multiplier will affect any mutagen amount generated during a position life, except when the mutagen generated are specifically marked as <mark style="color:green;">"Flat reward"</mark>.

Below are the criterion that will generate mutagens (called Quests in the UI).&#x20;

### **1 -&#x20;**<mark style="color:blue;">**Perpetual quests**</mark>**&#x20;- Accrue mutagens on any position**

#### <mark style="color:blue;">**PnL Volume ratio (PnL / Volume \* 100) based**</mark> -> rewards performance. Capped

* 0.1-7.5%: <mark style="color:purple;">0.01-0.3</mark> mutagens

#### <mark style="color:blue;">**Duration based**</mark>**&#x20;->** incentivize OI and Borrow fees

* 10s-72h -> <mark style="color:purple;">0-0.05</mark> mutagens

### **2 -&#x20;**<mark style="color:orange;">**Static quests & daily random Mutations**</mark>

#### <mark style="color:orange;">**4 static quests**</mark>&#x20;

* **daily -** do 3 trades - <mark style="color:purple;">0.25</mark> mutagens  <mark style="color:green;">"Flat reward"</mark>
* **daily** - open a short and long trades with at least 25x leverage - <mark style="color:purple;">0.25</mark> mutagens  <mark style="color:green;">"Flat reward"</mark>
* **Weekly** - have 50% win-rate on at least 50 trades - <mark style="color:purple;">2</mark> mutagens  <mark style="color:green;">"Flat reward"</mark>
* **Weekly** - reach 1M volume - <mark style="color:purple;">2</mark> mutagens  <mark style="color:green;">"Flat reward"</mark>

#### <mark style="color:orange;">**2 random daily Mutations**</mark>

*Each day, 2 mutation will be affecting the* mutagens *generated that day. The daily mutation are selected randomly. Goal is to create a meta for the day. The mutation points add up to the trading points generated by the position which will be multiplied by the final size multiplier.*

* **Frenzy** - <mark style="color:purple;">0.015</mark> bonus mutagens per trader
* **Corruption** - <mark style="color:purple;">0.02</mark> bonus mutagens per x50+ leveraged trade
* **Madness** - <mark style="color:purple;">0.03</mark> bonus mutagens per x80+ leveraged trade

* **Telepathy** - <mark style="color:purple;">0.015</mark> bonus mutagens if SL/TP has been triggered for the trade

### **3 -&#x20;**<mark style="color:red;">**Streaks**</mark> -> DAU increase + reward all participants regardless of volume

* trade daily => <mark style="color:purple;">0.1</mark> mutagens per day
* trade for seven consecutive days=> <mark style="color:purple;">1</mark> mutagen per occurence (on top of the <mark style="color:purple;">0.7</mark> mutagens already for dailies)
* trade for 30 consecutive days => <mark style="color:purple;">2</mark> mutagens per occurence (on top of the <mark style="color:purple;">3</mark> + <mark style="color:purple;">4</mark> mutagens already for dailies + weeklies)

Note: one trade per day (closed/liquidated) qualifies you.
