Perp DEX airdrops & points programs
checked against official docs
This page tracks publicly documented points and rewards programs on perpetual DEX venues. We list what official docs say about earning points, program status, weekly drops, and whether a token conversion is stated—not price targets or airdrop promises.
Hand-checked curated venues appear alongside other live perp venues from our atlas when we have not verified a points program yet.

How we check
We read official documentation for program facts, use DefiLlama for TVL and token symbols, and cross-check venue lists on our methodology page. Rows marked stale were last verified more than 30 days ago. Download JSON or CSV from the methodology page. Methodology.
FAQ
- What are perp DEX points?
- Many venues run loyalty or rewards programs that tally activity (often called points, XP, or amps). What they mean is defined only in each venue's docs.
- Do points guarantee an airdrop?
- No. Points do not guarantee any future token, allocation, or airdrop unless the venue explicitly states binding terms—which many do not.
- Why don't you show a dollar value per point?
- We never estimate a token or dollar value per point. Reported ratios are often missing, partial, or outdated.
- How often is this updated?
- Curated rows are updated when we re-read official docs and bump the checked date. Rebuild the site locally to refresh atlas and TVL data.
- Which perp DEXs have no token yet?
- See our no-token perp DEX list for venues without a live token symbol in our data.
