# Overview

Dreamcash Season 1 is the first phase of the application's rewards program, designed to align incentives with traders who actively contribute to the app and the CASH HIP-3 markets.

The structure is built on a simple principle: rewards should flow to those who participate. There are no shortcuts.

**Dual-Track Rewards**

Season 1 operates on two parallel reward mechanisms:

1. **XP** is earned through trading activity on the Dreamcash Mobile App, WebApp, and TreadFi. A fixed pool of 150M XP is distributed weekly every Thursday, pro rata based on relative trading volume. XP will form the basis for potential future reward distributions. Users trading via the Hyperliquid frontend do not earn XP.
2. **USDT Rewards** are distributed to all traders on CASH HIP-3 markets, regardless of whether they use the Dreamcash Mobile App, WebApp, TreadFi, or directly through Hyperliquid. These rebates are made possible through Tether's USDT0 infrastructure and are allocated weekly based on relative trading volume for an initial 10-week period, which may be extended.

This structure reflects a deliberate choice. Hyperliquid provides the underlying infrastructure, but building a sustainable platform requires cultivating an independent user base. The incentive design rewards traders who adopt the native Dreamcash experience while still sharing value with the broader ecosystem.

**Platform structure**

| Platform             | USDT Rewards | XP  | Volume Weight |
| -------------------- | ------------ | --- | ------------- |
| Dreamcash Mobile App | Yes          | Yes | 1x            |
| Dreamcash WebApp     | Yes          | Yes | 0.5x          |
| TreadFi              | Yes          | Yes | 0.5x          |
| Hyperliquid Frontend | Yes          | No  | —             |

The Mobile App carries a 1x volume weight compared to 0.5x on WebApp and TreadFi, rewarding users who adopt the native mobile experience. Any multipliers earned during the Founder Season still apply on top of these weights.
