The exchange's scoring system is far more complex than it appears on the surface. Margin and account size are not the decisive factors; there are many other evaluation criteria.

For example, position size carries weight. Someone holding 0.5 BTC for a week with little trading activity can still score 4.75 points, indicating that stable holdings are inherently recognized.

Profitability carries even greater weight. Accounts near the top of the profit leaderboard can easily score over 90 points. This means that earning efficiency has become the most critical indicator.

Simply put, OI (Open Interest) contributes to the score, and profitability also adds to it. The combination of these two dimensions is key to achieving high scores. It's not about how much principal you have in your account, but the quality of your holdings and your ability to make money that matter.

So basically, it's about incentive compatibility. Only when the combination of the two indicators—holding quality and profitability—is in place does the constraint mechanism work. However, this scoring system has an old problem—survivor bias. Accounts that are profitable are always more likely to make the list, while those that are losing? They get eliminated.

Wait, does that mean I can earn points just by staying still? Then I need to change my approach.

So, it's not just about throwing money to get on the leaderboard; you have to actually know how to make a profit.

Ha, this scoring system is basically just a money-driven logic. Having more principal doesn't matter; it depends on whether you really make a profit or not. Holding positions without moving can earn points, which is quite an interesting setup. The "lying down and winning" strategy has also been revitalized. Those who score over 90 points are probably laughing their heads off; earning efficiency is the real boss. The dual performance of OI and profit, to put it plainly, is still — if you can't rely on passive gains, you have to rely on tactics to speak. It seems that the exchange is hinting to us that retail traders might be better off focusing on mindset rather than holding positions.

This scoring logic is truly awesome; being able to speak with earning ability is more reliable than anything else.
