Rewards points
BASE 1 Rewards track in-app volume, swaps, launches, bound referrals, and thesis posts toward a future airdrop. Not predictions play-money. Not convertible yet.
BASE 1 Rewards is an off-chain points ledger for your wallet. Points are counted toward a future token airdrop. They have no cash value today and cannot be sold, transferred, or converted until that drop is announced.
This is not predictions play-money (pred_points). Same wallet, different pot. It is also not Rewards mode on a launch (holders claiming the pair asset), and not a Create first-buy airdrop of the new coin. See Modes.
The public board is wallets only — short 0x… addresses, no names, photos, or X handles. Your photo can still sit on Profile.
What earns points
Only actions that happen in BASE 1, after a successful transaction (or a successful referral bind or thesis post).
| Action | Rate |
|---|---|
| In-app swap volume | 1 point per $1 of USD notional (round down; ignore dust under $1) |
| Each in-app swap | 25 points |
| Token launch | 500 points when the launch transaction confirms |
| Bound referral | 200 points to the referrer when another wallet binds |
| Thesis post | 2 points per in-app thesis (coin page). Not paid from the 1% service fee. |
Example: a $400 pad buy, one coin you launched, one friend bound, and one thesis → 400 + 25 + 500 + 200 + 2 = 1,127 points.
In-app swaps include BASE 1 launch desks, Uniswap v4 ($BASECAT), and Uniswap routes (Toshi, Cashcat, /swap, and similar). Each confirmed swap is counted once (deduped by transaction hash). USD per transaction is capped (currently $250k) so a bad report cannot mint a fake board.
What does not earn points
- Predictions bets
- Fee claims (creator, referrer, or holder Rewards mode)
- The 0.001 ETH create fee
- Failed transactions
- Self-referral
- The 1% platform service fee
- The 10% referrer slice of a launch coin’s fee (that stays a quote-asset claim)
- Trades on GMGN or other venues outside BASE 1
Rates live in app config. They are not on-chain and can be retuned.
Airdrop
Conversion of these points to a platform token is not live. There is no claim button and no cash-out. When a drop is announced, these points are the track we will use. Until then, they are a score.
That is a different product from the optional first-buy airdrop on Create (a one-time send of the new coin at launch).
Where to look
Not affiliated with Coinbase or Base. Contract safety is not price safety. Creators can sell a disclosed first buy. Tokens can go to zero. Not financial advice.
