What actually moves the needle
Ranked by how well Arcus's own docs support them.
Trade spot Stock Tokens
Counts toward your waitlist position and is retroactive to launch. Spot is zero-fee, so this is the only action with a documented payoff and effectively no cost.
Connect every wallet you trade from
Rank is built from prior perps volume on dYdX v3/v4, Hyperliquid and Lighter. Arcus says connecting more wallets aggregates that history.
Lean into RWA and equity markets
Arcus says RWA volume "carries extra weight", the one criterion that singles this venue out from every other perp DEX.
Make, do not take
our inferenceMaker fees are 0% in beta for tiers 0-4, and tiers 5-6 pay a rebate. Resting liquidity costs nothing and reads as real participation rather than churn.
Stay active during early access
Arcus states plainly that "early access activity will be tracked", the closest thing to an on-record hint that current behaviour is being recorded.
Refer other traders
Pays 10% / 3% / 2% of net trading fees across three levels, for as long as they trade. Real income today whether or not a token ever ships.
Keep real capital on the venue
our inferenceNot named in any Arcus criterion, but deposit size featured in most comparable drops. Weigh it against the risk of parking funds on a beta venue.
