Ventuals Airdrop Details

Ventuals has not officially confirmed an airdrop, but the platform operates an active points program that rewards trading activity and vHYPE holdings. The protocol has reserved the $VNTLS ticker on Hyperliquid, suggesting a future token launch where points may convert to allocations. Given Ventual’s innovative use of Hyperliquid‘s HIP-3 (which enables the creation of permissionless perpetual futures markets) to launch pre-IPO and thematic basket perpetual contracts, trading significant volume on these markets is likely to make you eligible for potential HYPE and VNTLS airdrops.

The current incentive structure distributes 500,000 points weekly across maker and taker activity, with multiplier boosts for users holding vHYPE (the liquid staking token for HYPE). Early adopters received additional bonuses during initial volume periods, and the platform previously ran a maker-only program distributing 200,000-300,000 points weekly. Users who trade through partner platforms like Tread.fi can earn extra points boosts. The referral program offers USDH rewards ranging from 10-60% of referred users’ trading activity, scaled by the referrer’s vHYPE holdings.

Step 1: Purchase USDC from Binance to fund your trading activity. Withdraw to your wallet via Arbitrum.

Step 2: Visit Ventuals and click on connect your wallet. Use code QKTYTE to get a 10% fee rebate on all your trades.

Step 3: Click on ‘Deposit’ and then click on ‘Connect Wallet’. Deposit USDC and select the amount. The amount will be swapped for USDH and transferred to your Ventuals account.

Step 4: Navigate to the Markets section and select a pre-IPO asset (OpenAI, SpaceX) or thematic index (MAG7).

Step 5: Open long or short positions based on your market view. Enter your position size and leverage (up to 20x).

Step 6: Place limit orders instead of market orders when possible to earn maker points with higher multipliers.

Step 7: Go to ‘More’, then select the vHYPE page to deposit HYPE tokens and receive vHYPE for points multipliers. Get HYPE from Hyperliquid if you don’t hold any.

Step 8: Generate your referral link from the platform dashboard and share it to earn USDH rewards (10-60% of referrals’ trading fees).

Step 9: Trade through partner terminals like Tread.fi when available to stack additional points boosts on top of base rewards.

Step 10: Check your portfolio dashboard regularly to track accumulated points and trading volume.

Tips to Maximize Ventuals Points

  • Focus on maker orders: Limit orders earn significantly higher points than market orders in the current incentives structure. Factors impacting points earned through limit orders include:
    • Size & proximity (how much liquidity is provided and how close it is to the top of the order book)
    • Uptime (how long limit orders are in place for)
    • Two-sidedness (how consistent a maker provides liquidity on both the ask & bid side of the order book)
    • Fill quality (How much volume is facilitated at competitive prices)
  • Hold vHYPE for multipliers: Staking HYPE for vHYPE provides percentage boosts on all points earned from trading activity.
  • Trade during early periods: Initial volume bonuses have historically rewarded early adopters with extra points allocations.
  • Maintain consistent activity: Weekly point distributions reward sustained engagement rather than one-time large trades.
  • Use partner platforms: Trading through integrated terminals like tread.fi can stack bonus multipliers on base points.

Ventuals Liquid Staking

How It Works

  1. Deposit HYPE tokens into the Ventuals platform
  2. Receive vHYPE, a liquid staking token representing your staked HYPE
  3. Hold vHYPE to automatically earn:
    • Native HYPE staking yield
    • Ventuals Points (distributed weekly)
  4. Supply liquidity for vHYPE pools on Project X or Ultrasolid to earn more points. Depositing vHYPE into DeFi protocols counts as a transfer, but you can continue to earn Ventuals points at the lowest available tier.

You can purchase HYPE directly from Hyperliquid.

Ventuals Points Distribution

The points system rewards early participants with higher multipliers:

  • First Week: 5,000,000 points distributed
  • Following Weeks: 1,000,000 points per week
  • Early Deposit Bonus: Up to 10x multiplier for early participants
  • Duration Bonus: Longer deposits earn more points
  • Position Advantage: If other users exit, your position ranking improves

Certain user groups receive additional multiplier boosts:

  • Active testnet traders
  • VLP depositors
  • Hypurr NFT holders

Conclusion

Ventuals provides access to pre-IPO derivatives markets through Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 infrastructure, with active points programs rewarding trading volume and vHYPE staking. While no airdrop is confirmed, consistent trading activity and maker orders position users for potential token allocations if the reserved $VNTLS ticker launches with retroactive rewards.

What is Ventuals?

Ventuals is a blockchain-based derivatives platform that aims to democratize access to private equity markets by allowing retail investors to trade derivatives tied to pre-IPO company valuations. Built on Hyperliquid, the platform enables users to trade perpetual futures contracts for high-value startups like OpenAI, SpaceX, and other unicorn companies using USDC as collateral.

The platform addresses a significant gap in traditional finance by providing liquidity to an otherwise illiquid asset class. Through its innovative “optimistic oracle” mechanism, Ventuals transforms subjective off-chain data about private company valuations into credible on-chain facts, creating transparent pricing for companies that don’t trade on public markets. This approach breaks the traditional monopoly of venture capital firms and institutional investors who have historically controlled access to pre-IPO investments.

Ventuals leverages Hyperliquid‘s high-performance infrastructure to support complex derivatives trading with sub-second latency and the capacity to handle 100,000 orders per second. The platform represents one of the first major use cases for Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 standard, which allows developers to launch custom perpetual futures markets.
