According to @dydxfoundation, November on dYdX features Surge Season 8 with 50% fee rebates and a 1M DYDX prize pool. According to @dydxfoundation, Trading Leagues launched to provide performance-based rewards that rank traders by results. According to @dydxfoundation, BTC and SOL markets received fee holidays during the month. According to @dydxfoundation, these incentives are intended to deepen engagement and strengthen liquidity while lowering effective trading costs for participants across live markets.

According to @dydxfoundation, dYdX has introduced a four-week Trading Leagues competition that will distribute up to 1 million USD in DYDX rewards and rank traders by PnL performance rather than volume to reward skill over size, which is explicitly highlighted in the announcement interview with EG from @dydxarena, source: dYdX Foundation on X, Nov 13, 2025. The conversation details why a PnL-based format can reshape trading behavior, how to get involved, how success will be measured, and what comes next for the program, source: dYdX Foundation on X, Nov 13, 2025. For active participants, the structure prioritizes PnL outcomes over volume when competing for DYDX incentives on dYdX, source: dYdX Foundation on X, Nov 13, 2025. The initiative is framed as building a more engaging, community-driven trading ecosystem on dYdX, source: dYdX Foundation on X, Nov 13, 2025.
