On October 22, 2024, the dYdX community voted for Kuyen Labs to oversee the VIP Affiliate Program on dYdX Chain. Also, the dYdX Unlimited software upgrade that supports the Affiliate Program was successfully implemented on November 13, 2024.
As such, we are launching this on-chain proposal to whitelist the following VIP affiliates. Once the VIP affiliate’s address is whitelisted and their respective affiliate link is available, VIP Affiliates will qualify to earn up to 50% of referred user taker fees, with a maximum of $10,000 per referral per 30-day rolling period. Please note that the revenue share percentage and revenue cap are not fixed indefinitely; they can be adjusted at any time through a dYdX Chain governance proposal.
This group represents the beginning of our journey to onboard impactful partners who will help drive growth and expand the reach of dYdX. We’re committed to consistently reviewing VIP affiliate applications, demoting underperforming VIP affiliates, and conducting outreach to bring in more high-potential affiliates each week—while ensuring we maintain a high standard for VIP acceptance.
