PANAMA CITY, November 4, 2026 — Bitbase today launched ORIGIN, the first season of its Bitbase Points program, which is designed to reward sustained participation over time. Over the 26-week season, which ends on May 4, 2027, Bitbase will distribute 1,000,000 points each week, allocated daily according to each participant’s contribution. Four sources of contribution Each participant’s contribution is drawn from four sources: trading, assets held on Bitbase, consistent activity and referrals. Consistent activity is counted as a separate source, so continued participation from day to day adds to a user’s contribution. All eligible users, whether new to Bitbase or already active on the platform, are enrolled automatically. For each new user referred directly, the referrer receives an additional 25% of that user’s contribution. The new user’s own points are not affected. Participants will also receive a Trading Identity card, a shareable summary of their trading style. The first cards will be issued on November 9, with new cards following each Monday for the remainder of the season. Existing users begin with points already credited Before the season began, Bitbase credited points to eligible existing users based on their earlier activity on the platform. As a result, these users enter ORIGIN with their prior activity already reflected in their points and ranking. The first program under Bitbase 2.0 On November 2, the exchange introduced Bitbase 2.0, updating its brand, app and website under the statement “Market Flows. We Focus.” ORIGIN is the first program to put that statement into practice. While markets move continuously, Bitbase has chosen to assess participation across months rather than individual moments. “We designed ORIGIN for users who participate consistently, not only during the busiest periods in the market,” said Nicholas Lo, Chief Business Officer at Bitbase. “Over a six-month season, that consistency carries weight. Our responsibility is to make sure every contribution is credited, from the first day of the season to the last.” Points and rankings are available in the Bitbase app and at bitbase.com/points. About Bitbase Bitbase is a digital asset exchange serving individual and institutional users worldwide, with products spanning Spot, Futures, TradFi and Earn. Bitbase aims to give users a stable and straightforward trading experience, in line with its brand statement, “Market Flows. We Focus.” Learn more at bitbase.com.

Panama City, November 4, 2026 — Bitbase today launched ORIGIN, the first season of its new Bitbase Points program. Ahead of the launch, the digital asset exchange credited points to eligible users who had been trading on the platform, so their past activity counts from day one. The season runs for 26 weeks, until May 4, 2027, with 1,000,000 points distributed each week. Part of Bitbase 2.0 ORIGIN is also the first part of Bitbase 2.0 to reach users directly. Bitbase unveiled 2.0 on November 2, with an upgraded app and website and a new brand identity built around the statement “Market Flows. We Focus.” The idea is that markets will always move, and Bitbase chooses to focus on what lasts for its users. ORIGIN applies the same thinking to participation. Rather than rewarding a single burst of activity, it looks at what users do day after day over six months and credits the contribution they make across that period. How participation is counted Bitbase built ORIGIN around what users already do on the exchange. Eligible users, new or existing, are enrolled automatically, with no separate registration. Points are allocated daily based on each participant’s contribution, which draws on four sources: trading, assets held on Bitbase, consistent activity and referrals. Because consistency is one of those sources, steady participation adds up over the course of the season. ORIGIN also rewards users who bring others to Bitbase. A referrer receives an additional 25% of the contribution of each new user they refer directly, while the new user’s own contribution is unaffected. Starting November 9, participants will also receive a shareable Trading Identity card that reflects their trading habits, with a new card issued every Monday until the season ends. Recognition that continues through the season “Bitbase 2.0 is about focus, and for our users, that means knowing their steady participation is recognized and credited,” said Nicholas Lo, Chief Business Officer at Bitbase. “That’s why ORIGIN started by crediting what users had already done with us. It doesn’t ask anyone to trade differently. It simply records the participation that’s already there, every day, for the next six months.” Users can track their points and rankings in the Bitbase app and on the website. Full details are available at bitbase.com/points.
