Rank System
Your rank is your standing in the Colosseum — the seasonal climb from Recruit to Immortal. Rank determines one thing, and it’s a big one: your cashback rate on the onchain.cc fee you pay.
The Six Ranks
Section titled “The Six Ranks”Six clean ranks, no sub-tiers. The current ladder:
| Rank | Rank points to reach | Cashback rate |
|---|---|---|
| Recruit | 0 | 25% |
| Warrior | 10,000 | 30% |
| Gladiator | 20,000 | 35% |
| Champion | 50,000 | 40% |
| Warlord | 350,000 | 45% |
| Immortal | 1,000,000 | 50% |
Rank up and the higher cashback rate applies to every trade from that moment on.
Three counters — don’t mix them up
Section titled “Three counters — don’t mix them up”| Counter | What it is | Resets? |
|---|---|---|
| Rank points | Your seasonal climb — earned from trading and quests, they set your rank | Yes — at each season open, everyone drops to Recruit together |
| Points balance | Your lifetime points total | Never |
| Season leaderboard | Points earned this season, ranked against other traders for the prize pool | Each season |
Your lifetime points balance is never reset and never spent — it’s your permanent record. Rank points are the seasonal race; the leaderboard is the prize race. The same trading feeds all three.
Earning Rank Points
Section titled “Earning Rank Points”Every product earns rank points per dollar of volume — at different rates, on purpose:
| Activity | Rank points per $1 |
|---|---|
| Trenches trades | 0.75 — the highest rate on the terminal |
| Swaps | 0.50 |
| Predictions trades | 0.50 |
| Spot sells | 0.35 |
| Perps volume (position held 60s+) | 0.05 |
| Perps closed under 60 seconds | 0.025 |
| Stable-to-stable swaps | 0.25 — deliberately the lowest-effort, lowest-earn lane |
Two perps wrinkles: hold a position for at least a minute and you earn the full rate, and a position that closes on a major move earns a 1.5× rate — wins and losses alike. Spot buys earn nothing — there’s no fee on a spot buy, so the earn sits on the sell.
Quests pay rank points on top of trading — daily and weekly quests are the steadiest way to accelerate a climb. Occasional Bonus Windows, faction boosts, and season events can multiply point earnings, but they’re the exception now — the base rates are where the climb lives.
The Season Reset
Section titled “The Season Reset”Rank points reset to zero when a new season opens — everyone returns to Recruit together, whales and OGs included. Your cashback rate resets with it and climbs back as you rank up (grandfathered OG traders reset to the OG Recruit rate — see Cashback).
The reset costs your position, not your progress: your lifetime points balance and your claimable cashback are untouched, and the ladder is the same distance for everyone.
