Exciting times in the DeFi space: the powerhouse trading terminal Genius, fresh off a $6 million funding round, has just rolled out its innovative points system. As a go-to tool for savvy traders looking to maximize efficiency and minimize slippage on-chain, this new feature ties rewards directly to your trading volume, making every swap count toward building your points balance.

Genius stands out by letting users stack up massive points with rock-bottom fees, thanks to smart slippage tweaks and stablecoin hedging tactics. It's designed for those grind sessions where you want to pump volume without bleeding funds on gas or spreads.

  1. Getting Started: Access and Setup

Head over to the Genius platform to dive in. Once you're there, the first move is to fund your account and unlock the full suite of features.

Look for the "Deposit" button in the top-right corner—it'll whisk you straight to the funding page. The platform plays nice with multiple deposit options, but I'd recommend kicking things off with a BNB Chain address for speed and simplicity.

Before sending anything, double-check the supported tokens and your receiving address. In the wild world of crypto, a simple mix-up can lead to irreversible losses, so vigilance is key.

  1. Fine-Tuning Your Settings

To rack up points, it's all about cranking up your trade volume while keeping costs razor-thin. Head to the config icon below the 'Swap + Bridge' section and dial in your slippage to 1%—that's the floor right now, though it used to dip even lower. Set your GWEI to 0.01 for optimal gas efficiency.

This aggressive setup slashes the spreads during swaps and keeps gas fees in check, dropping your overall brushing costs to the lowest in the game. It's a game-changer for anyone serious about scaling volume without the usual overhead.

  1. Leveling Up Points: The Stablecoin Back-and-Forth Strategy

With everything configured, zero in on the USDT/USDC pair on the BNB Chain. Stablecoins hold steady, so looping through buy-sell cycles lets you balloon your total volume fast, sparking explosive points growth.

Pro tip: Stick to local swap routes to dodge those sneaky bridge fees—nothing kills momentum like extra costs. This approach delivers the best bang for your buck in the points race.

If you're feeling adventurous, poke around the platform's other perks like futures trading, but we'll save that deep dive for another post.

  1. Pulling Out Your Funds

When it's time to cash out, navigate to the top-right wallet area and hit the "Withdraw" button for a smooth exit. Just a heads-up: while stablecoin pairs keep things predictable, every trade nibbles at your stack with some slippage. Futures carry their own risks too, so weigh your tolerance and dive in wisely—crypto's not for the faint-hearted.
