Traders can earn Bitbase ORIGIN points by maintaining active trading habits, holding digital assets on the exchange, and participating in the platform's referral system. Launched on November 4, 2026, the ORIGIN program automatically enrolls all eligible users, calculating daily contributions to distribute 1,000,000 points every week. The first season is scheduled to run for six months, concluding on May 4, 2027, with past trading activity prior to the launch date also being credited to long-standing users.
The program is a key component of the broader Bitbase 2.0 rollout, which debuted on November 2, 2026. This overhaul includes a revamped mobile app, an updated website, and a new brand identity focused on the mantra, “Market Flows. We Focus.” Unlike traditional short-term incentive schemes, ORIGIN is specifically designed to reward "steady participation" over a sustained period. To further gamify the experience, Bitbase will issue shareable "Trading Identity" cards every Monday starting November 9, allowing users to showcase their specific market habits.
From a strategic perspective, the referral mechanism offers a significant loyalty boost; referrers earn an additional 25% of the points generated by their direct invites without reducing the new user's earnings. This approach reflects a growing trend among digital asset exchanges in 2026 to move away from high-emission token rewards in favor of point-based systems that prioritize user retention and organic growth over speculative "farming" behavior.
For US-based users, the focus on "recognition of activity" rather than direct monetary dividends may help Bitbase navigate the complex regulatory environment regarding exchange-based rewards. As the program progresses toward its May 2027 conclusion, market analysts will be watching to see if these points transition into a native utility token or tiered fee discounts. Investors should monitor how this liquidity-mining alternative affects Bitbase's overall market share against major competitors in the coming months.
