What is Degen Arena?
A points (XP) competition between Factions (protocols & influencers) comprised of Degens (users) they recruit to reward early adopters of Defi App.

Why is my XP not updating?
Some common causes are:
You have not joined a Faction. You must be in a Faction to earn XP.
You have not undertaken any actions to earn XP (swaps/holding assets in smart wallets/referrals).
The leaderboard has not updated yet.
Occasionally there might be a UI bug - in these instances the team will fix the bug as soon as possible, but users will still be earning XP.
Where is my Perps XP?
Unlike swap XP, perps XP is not awarded in real time and must be claimed on the Perps dashboard. There is a 2-day delay as we use the Hyperliquid daily report to populate the database.
