PERPTools Airdrop Details
The PERPTools airdrop is confirmed. The project docs state that points earned before TGE convert proportionally into $PERP at launch. The size of the airdrop allocation has not been announced, and the team says final rules will come in a tokenomics paper closer to TGE.
Key Parameters:
Airdrop Allocation: Not announced
Distribution Method: Points convert proportionally into $PERP
TGE Date: Late Q4 2026 (no exact date)
Latest Update: AI Arena is paused. You cannot deposit into agents or create new ones, and only withdrawals are open. Users have seven days from the October 17 announcement (until October 24) to withdraw manually, after which remaining agent funds are withdrawn automatically. This applies only to AI Arena, and the rest of the DEX keeps running. Season 2 started on October 2, 2026 with fresh point balances, and spot trading counts toward points.
Points come from a fixed weekly pool of 1,000,000, split every Friday at 13:00 UTC among users with eligible activity. Your share depends on trading volume, open interest and referrals relative to everyone else that week. The scoring formula is not public.
How to Participate in the PERPTools Airdrop
Step 1: Connect Your Wallet to PERPTools
Open the PERPTools app and click “Connect Wallet”. On first connection you sign a one-time on-chain registration that creates your trading account.
Step 2: Deposit USDC Collateral
Click “Deposit,” and send USDC, USDT or Solana to your trading account. There is no deposit fee and no minimum for trading. If you need USDC, you can buy it on Bybit and withdraw or move funds you already hold on another chain with the widget below.

Step 3: Trade Perpetuals
Open the trading terminal, pick a market, and place a market or limit order. Volume and open interest both feed your weekly score. Standard markets charge 0.01% for maker orders and 0.046% for taker orders.
Step 4: Trade Spot Markets
Switch to spot and swap between listed pairs. Spot volume earns Season 2 points, and PERPTools currently charges 0% fees on spot trades.
Step 5: AI Arena (Paused)
AI Arena is currently paused. Deposits into agents and new agent creation are disabled, and only withdrawals are open. If you still have USDC in an agent, you can withdraw it from AI Arena with the Solana wallet you used. Each withdrawal from an agent costs 1 USDC and can take up to 24 hours. Manual withdrawals are open for seven days from the October 17 announcement (until October 24). After that, remaining agent funds are withdrawn automatically. Perp and spot trading on the DEX are not affected.
Step 6: Share Your Referral Link
Copy your personal link from the Referral page. You receive points equal to 10% of what your referred users earn, plus a base 10% share of their trading fees paid in USDC.
Step 7: Check Your Weekly Points
Visit the Points page after each Friday distribution to see your allocation and rank.
Tips for Maximizing Potential Allocation
Rest limit orders instead of taking the market price: Makers pay 0.01% against 0.046% for takers, so the same volume costs under a quarter of the fees.
Keep positions open for a while: Open interest is scored alongside volume, so a position you hold keeps contributing after the entry fee is paid.
Lean on spot while it is free: With trading fees at 0%, spot volume is currently the cheapest Season 2 activity.

Conclusion
PERPTools pairs a live perp DEX with AI trading agents, and its $PERP airdrop is tied directly to points. Season 2 reset every balance on October 2, so new accounts compete on equal footing for the weekly 1,000,000-point pool. With AI Arena paused, perp and spot trading and referrals are the activities that count.
