Bulk Trade
Airdrop (Retrodrop)

Every week, BulkTrade distributes 1M points across all users participating in the points farming campaign until the exchange goes live on the mainnet for trading. 

According to a crypto Twitter creator, there are rumors that the project may run a 30-week farming campaign. In that case, the project launches at $100M FDV, the estimated value of points is approximately $1 and $2 if it launches at $200M FDV. 

At the current 25M cap, each $1 deposited generates approximately 0.04 AURA per week, equivalent to roughly $0.04. This would result in approximately $1.2 earned per dollar deposited over 30 weeks, or around a 200% APR. 

❗Important: But keep in mind that there are still risks of points inflation due to an extension of the farming timeline, an increase in deposited funds, and other variables.

Here are the steps to join the event:

• Pre-Deposit campaign

The main way to acquire AURA points on BulkTrade is by committing funds to its pre-deposit campaign, launched in parallel with Season 1 points farming on June 1, 2026. According to the X post, the most points will be allocated directly for the pre-deposit campaign.

To participate, all you need is $USDC in your Solana wallet. Connect it to the app and commit funds. The funds can be withdrawn at any time with no points penalty.

• Referral program

Boost your AURA earnings by inviting other users to participate in BulkTrade's pre-deposit campaign. Keep in mind that to receive a points bonus from your invitees, they must deposit at least $100 per account.

• BulkSOL liquidity staking

Another way of earning AURA points from BulkTrade is $SOL liquidity staking on the platform. This way, you will earn boosted yield compared to native staking while earning AURA points and keeping liquid assets in your wallet that can be used across Solana DeFi apps for additional yield.

• Mainnet trading (coming soon)

As of June 2026, there is no live mainnet trading, with the pre-deposit campaign running until then. However, once trading is live, it is almost guaranteed that you will earn points for trading on this perp DEX as well.

Considering the experience with points farming campaigns on Variational, Nado, Extended, and other perp DEXs, the main criteria for earning points will be your trading volume, time of positions held, and OI.

When trading is live, you can also try the delta-neutral points farming strategy using other perp DEXs to hedge your positions. The idea here is to open long and short positions on two assets to move your liquidations away when the market moves in either direction, and hedge your open positions on another perp DEX.

This way, you will earn points from two perp DEXs without losing any funds from trading and potentially earn some gains from funding rate spreads across the exchanges.

Good Luck! 🍀
