What are Particle Points?

Particle Points (PP) are DustSwap's progression points. Almost everything you do in the app — swapping, sweeping dust, checking in daily, completing quests, inviting friends — earns PP, and your total drives your rank, streak boosts, and quest progress.

What PP is

  • A points balance attached to your wallet address, tracked by DustSwap.
  • Earned by verified activity: every on-chain action is checked against the actual transaction before points are awarded; social actions are verified through linked accounts.
  • Displayed on your Profile and ranked on the Leaderboards.

What PP is not

Important disclosure PP is not a cryptocurrency or token. It does not exist on-chain, cannot be transferred, traded, or sold, and has no monetary value today. DustSwap plans to reward standing (including leaderboard rank) at a future TGE (Token Generation Event) — but structure, amounts, and timing are not finalized or guaranteed. Never pay anyone for PP, and treat any third party "selling" PP or "pre-TGE allocations" as a scam.

How you earn PP

Every earning action, with exact amounts and daily caps, is listed on Earning PP: Every Action & Cap. In short:

  • Daily check-in — 100 PP base, multiplied by your streak boost, plus 3 spin tickets. See Daily Check-In & Streaks.
  • Activity — swaps, dust sweeps, and burns each pay PP per action or per token, with daily caps.
  • Spin — every spin wins 50–500 PP.
  • Quests — one-time PP rewards for social and on-chain tasks. See How Quests Work.
  • Referrals — 500 PP per signup for both sides, plus a 20% lifetime commission on what your invitees earn. See How Referrals Work.
  • Footprint Drop — a one-time drop of 5,000–26,000 PP based on your prior Base activity.

The streak boost multiplies everything

Your daily check-in streak adds +10% per consecutive day, up to +300% at day 30, and the boost applies to almost every PP action — not just the check-in itself. A consistent user literally earns up to 4× more from the same activity. Full mechanics: Streak Boost Explained.

Where to see your PP

Your Profile shows total PP, rank, earning history, streak status, and referral progress. The PP leaderboard ranks all users by total points.
