Reya Chain Points: FAQs
Core RCP Mechanics
What are Reya Chain Points?
Reya Chain Points (RCP) are the points system used to track meaningful contributions to ReyaChain across trading, staking, and community actions. They serve as the basis for distributing ownership in the network through the future airdrop.
How many RCP are there?
ReyaChain Points have a fixed weekly supply. The supply will change slightly each week across the three actions of trading, staking and signal, particularly as trading activity grows. However, trading actions are generally the most rewarded given traders pay fees and take risk.
How often are RCP distributed?
RCP is distributed weekly based on your activity across trading, staking, and signal. You’ll see your new points allocation each week, even if you didn’t earn any that cycle.
Is RCP transferable or tradable?
No. RCP is non-transferable and not tradable. It’s designed purely to measure and reward contribution to the network.
Is there a leaderboard for RCP?
Yes. The public leaderboard allows anyone to track their standing across all three tracks and see the top 20 RCP earners per week and in total.
How to Earn RCP
What actions earn me RCP?
You can earn RCP through three tracks:
Trading: Trade any supported market on Reya
Staking: Convert rUSD into srUSD and hold it in your margin account or external third party applications for additional rewards
Signal: Contribute high-signal content or code that helps grow Reya — think trading tools, smart threads, or helping bring new whales onboard
How is RCP weighted between Trading, Staking, and Signal?
Trading carries the highest risk and rightly earns the highest weight, followed by staking. Signal is discretionary and designed to reward outsized contributions that drive real value to the ecosystem.
Is Trading the most heavily weighted activity?
Yes. Trading is the primary engine of the protocol and traders carry the most risk, so it earns the majority of weekly points. The actions rewarded are generally focused on volume and open interest. But will vary week on week.
How do referrals impact RCP?
You earn 10% of the RCP earned by any wallet you refer. This doesn’t take anything away from them — it’s a bonus to you. You will also earn 10% of their trading fees, and the user you refer will enjoy a 10% discount in trading fees for themselves too. It’s a win-win.
Can I earn RCP without trading or staking?
Yes — through Signal. If you’re helping Reya grow through code, content, or connections, you can earn RCP. We recognise there are broader contributions than capital alone.
What happens if I stake and then unstake? Do I lose future RCP eligibility?
If you unstake before the weekly snapshot, you won’t earn staking RCP for that week. Staked balances need to be in place at the time of snapshot to count.
XP to RCP Conversion
Why was XP replaced by RCP?
XP was an early system to reward activity on Reya. RCP (Reya Chain Points) is the evolved version — built for the full chain launch, with clearer rules, better tracking, and stronger alignment with the community airdrop. It also addresses feedback we had from the community about XP suffering from too much inflation — RCP points are finite.
What was the ratio for XP to RCP conversion?
Traders and Stakers have always had separate allocations. This is reflected in the amount of RCP earned through those actions. Alongside this, different allocations were awarded to different seasons, with an additional boost given based on your end-of-season rank.
I’ve been a loyal staker since Season OG. Do I get any additional benefit?
Yes! Loyal users will always be rewarded more. There were an additional 250,000 RCP airdropped to stakers who have been with us since Season OG and still have assets staked today. Loyalty will keep being rewarded going forward.
If I held XP but didn’t claim, do I lose my rewards?
No. Any XP you earned has already been converted to RCP. You don’t need to claim anything — your RCP balance reflects it automatically.
Is this a one-time conversion or will XP return?
This was a one-time conversion. XP is now retired. All future activity will earn RCP directly. Any XP you had contributed to your head start on Reya Chain Points.
I was active before RCP launched. How is my contribution still counted?
If you earned XP prior to launch, your activity is already reflected in your current RCP balance. That’s your head start.
Product Design and Transparency
How do you ensure fairness in RCP distribution?
RCP is calculated based on actual impact — trading activity, staking balance, and meaningful community contributions. The system is designed to reward real engagement, not vanity metrics. Weekly distributions mean it’s always up to date and reflects recent effort.
What stops people from sybil attacking RCP?
We actively monitor for sybil behavior and can exclude ineligible wallets from RCP rewards. The system also requires effort over time not just one-off actions making it costly to exploit. Alongside this, we will instruct a sybil analytics team to remove those suspected of sybil farming in advance of the community airdrop. This ensures more rewards go to real users.
