BloFin Whitepaper Day voucher tiers, worked: 15 USDT of vouchers for about 10.80 USDT in taker fees

The campaign window closes on November 2 at 11:00 UTC, which is 6:00 AM ET on Monday.

The ladder, with the fee bill next to it

Volume is cumulative across the window, and tiers stack: hitting a higher tier also pays every tier below it. The fee column uses BloFin's Regular futures taker rate of 0.0600% (taker volume is the only kind that counts, see below).

Read the last two columns together. At Tier 1 the vouchers are worth roughly 4.6 times the fees. At Tier 2 it is about 1.4 times. At Tier 3 you pay 108 USDT in fees for 40 USDT of vouchers, and at Tier 4 you pay 1,080 USDT for 180. Past Tier 2, the vouchers only make sense as a small discount on volume you were going to trade anyway. They do not pay for the volume.

The fee figure is a floor. It ignores spread, slippage and losing trades.

What actually counts

• BTC only. Eligible products are BTC-USDT, BTC-USDC and BTC-USD. Your ETH, SOL, XRP or DOGE perps add nothing, however busy you are on them.
• Taker only. Only futures taker volume counts. Resting limit orders that fill as maker are invisible to the tracker, even on BTC.
• One-minute floor. Positions held for less than 1 minute are excluded. Fast scalps that open and close inside a minute will not move you up the ladder.
• Main account only. Sub-account trades are excluded.
• Register first. You must register on the activity page before trading. Volume done before you register is not something to count on.
• Verified users in eligible regions. The campaign is open to verified BloFin users in eligible regions only.

Worked steps: getting to Tier 2 without kidding yourself

1. Register on the activity page, then check that the tracker shows you as enrolled.
2. Decide your size. The page counts cumulative volume, and both the opening and the closing fill are trades. Whether both legs count is something to confirm on the tracker after your first round trip, not something to assume.
3. Use market or crossing orders for the trades you want counted, since maker fills do not count.
4. Hold each position at least a minute. A 2-minute hold on a 9,000 USDT BTC position, opened and closed at market, is the kind of trade the rules are written around.
5. Budget about 10.80 USDT in taker fees for 18,000 USDT of volume at the Regular tier, plus whatever the market does to you while you hold.
6. Compare the tracker number to your own trade history before the deadline. A gap usually means maker fills or sub-minute holds.

Common mistakes

• Treating the 180 USDT headline as the target. Reaching it means 1.8 million USDT of BTC taker volume and about 1,080 USDT in Regular-tier fees.
• Counting ETH or SOL trades toward the ladder.
• Trading from a sub-account.
• Placing limit orders to save fees, then finding the volume did not register.
• Forgetting the vouchers expire. They arrive within 7 business days after the campaign ends and are valid for 7 days from issuance.

About the vouchers themselves

They are BTC 5x leverage position vouchers, denominated in USDT, for trading use only. They cannot be withdrawn or transferred. That means a 15 USDT total is not 15 USDT of cash. It is a position you have to open, at 5x on BTC, within a week of receiving it, and the result depends on what BTC does in that window.

Quick FAQ

Do I get only the highest tier I reach? No. Tiers are cumulative. 20,000 USDT of volume unlocks Tiers 1 and 2, for 15 USDT in total.

Does a VIP fee rate change the math? Yes. VIP 1 starts at 0.0500% taker, but it needs at least 10,000,000 USDT of 30-day futures volume (or the asset or spot thresholds). Most people reading this pay 0.0600%.

What about BTC-USDC and coin-margined BTC-USD? Both are listed as eligible alongside BTC-USDT.

Is there still time? The window ends November 2 at 11:00 UTC, so Tier 1 or 2 is realistic for someone already trading BTC. Tier 4 is not a weekend project.

Lowest-cost honest read: if you trade BTC at market anyway, Tier 1 or Tier 2 is a small rebate on that. Anything higher is paying fees to chase vouchers.
