Rewards
Points accrue from your activity now. They currently have no redemption path and no monetary value — they are your ranking score on the season leaderboard. If a redemption program is introduced later, it will be announced separately and will never apply retroactively to bonus points.
Points on Conviction accumulate in monthly epochs, with each epoch starting at 00:00 UTC on the 1st of the month. Your cumulative total carries over even as epochs change, and you can view both the current epoch and the all-time total at once on the leaderboard.
#Sign-up bonus
Depending on your referral status, the following points are credited immediately at sign-up.
| Case | Referral status | Sign-up bonus | First-trade bonus |
|---|---|---|---|
| A | No referrer + 0 referees | 0 | 0 |
| B | No referrer + 1 or more referees | 500 | +5,000 |
| C | Has a referrer + 0 referees | 1,000 | +10,000 |
| D | Has a referrer + 1 or more referees | 1,000 (same as C) | +10,000 (same as C) |
Case D (both referred and having invited someone) receives the same amount as Case C. The 5,000P from Case B is not added on top.
#Retroactive grant (one time only)
If you were Case A at sign-up and someone later signs up with your referral code, you transition to Case B (or D). At that point, the following are granted automatically, one time.
- Sign-up bonus 500P (if never received)
- First-trade bonus 5,000P (if you had already traded)
Bonuses already received are not granted twice, and no additional 5,000P is added on top after reaching Case D.
#Trading points
Every time you trade, 1 point per $1 of trade value is earned (in whole units).
- Daily cap: up to 1,000P per day (resets at UTC midnight)
- Monthly cap: up to 30,000P per month (calendar month = epoch basis)
- Volume above the cap is not converted to points and is forfeited (it doesn't carry over to the next day).
- Trades below $1 also accumulate, and the moment the running total crosses $1, 1P is earned.
- Trading points are combined with the sign-up/first-trade bonuses and reflected in your total on the leaderboard.
#Epochs
- Length: 1 month (UTC, starting at 00:00 UTC on the 1st of each month)
- Season: a fixed number of consecutive epochs, identified by sequential numbers
- Seasons are live — pick any season on the leaderboard selector to see its ranking
Your score within each epoch is shown alongside your current rank on the leaderboard.
#Creator points
Markets you create through the AI chat earn you points when other people trade them: 0.5P per $1 of their taker volume, up to 500P per day. Your own trades on your markets never count, and the market page shows you as the creator.
