What is OP Season?

OP Season is a 20-week-long event in which 300,000 OP tokens will be distributed weekly to traders on Synthetix perps. By participating in the OP Season, traders can expect to earn significant rewards that can be used to boost their trades on Polynomial.

How to become eligible for the rewards

Becoming eligible for OP rewards is a straightforward process. Users can earn these rewards simply by trading with multiple assets listed on the Polynomial platform. The amount of rewards earned is based on the fees paid by the user during their trades.

Fees paid for the keeper deposit won't get calculated for rewards

Reward structure (old)

The OP rewards program will award a total of 5,310,000 OP (approx 14.2m in current value) over a period of 20 weeks.

• Week 1 = 10,000 OP

• Weeks 2-3 = 100,000 OP

• Weeks 4-20 = 300,000 OP

Reward calculation

Traders' performance is evaluated based on the trading fees they have paid, excluding execution fees. 

rawScore = tradefeespaid

Estimate $OP rewards

Estimated rewards are ratio of your fees paid over total fees paid by everyone else since it’s multiplied by time, it gives an approx amount of OP.

NOTE: OP rewards don’t include keeper fee or funding. All orders in polynomial trade as delayed, i.e. when you place an order it is executed by a bot after 15 second; this execution is gas intensive and costs approx $5 in the current price, which is fixed cost regardless of trade size.

The trader score includes a staked SNX multiplier:

If traders have staked SNX tokens, their score will receive a boost.

  • 0-2499 SNX: 1.00x

  • 2500-5000 SNX: 1.05x

  • 5001-10,000 SNX: 1.075x

  • 10,001-20,000 SNX: 1.1x

  • >20,001 SNX: 1.15x
