# Revenue Distribution

**Revenue Distribution** puts 100% of marketplace revenue from trading fees back into the hands of our Eligible Top Users. Hyperliquid-coded through and through.

**How it works:**\
At the end of every 14 days (one cycle), Eligible Users may be able to claim a share of Drip Trade revenue in $HYPE / $wHYPE.

**Eligibility Criteria**\
To qualify as an Eligible User, a user must:

* Rank in the top 50 of the Points leaderboard, and
* Rank in the top 50 of the Locked $JPEG leaderboard

**Reward Allocation Rules**\
The total HYPE reward pot will be distributed each cycle among all Eligible Users.

* Each Eligible User is guaranteed a Reward Floor (RF) of 20 HYPE.
* Each Eligible User gets the same payout — a fair, equal distribution of marketplace revenue.

**Shortfall Adjustment**\
If the total HYPE reward pot available is insufficient to meet the Reward Floor for all eligible users:

* Users with the lowest (Points × Loyalty) score will be removed from eligibility.
* This continues until every remaining Eligible User can receive at least the RF of 20 HYPE.
* If the pot cannot cover the Reward Floor for a single eligible user, no rewards will be distributed for that cycle, and the pot will roll over to the next cycle.

For every 1 $HYPE / $wHYPE in revenue that a user claims, 10 Drip Trade Points are deducted from their points balance.

For example: if you claim and receive 25 $HYPE this cycle, 250 Points would be deducted from your current total accumulated Points.

*Below are some further examples, assuming $45 per $HYPE.*

| **cycle pool ($HYPE)** | **eligible users** | **per user payout ($HYPE)** | **points deducted (HYPE ×10)** | **notes**                                                     |
| ---------------------: | -----------------: | --------------------------: | -----------------------------: | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
|          **360 $HYPE** |                 18 |                    20 $HYPE |                            200 | fewer than 50 users so each still clears the 20 $HYPE minimum |
|        **1,000 $HYPE** |                 50 |                    20 $HYPE |                            200 | hits the 50-user cap at the 20 $HYPE floor                    |
|        **5,000 $HYPE** |                 50 |                   100 $HYPE |                          1,000 | larger pool, higher per-user payout                           |
|       **25,000 $HYPE** |                 50 |                   500 $HYPE |                          5,000 | very large pool, same 50 users benefit                        |
|         **< 20 $HYPE** |                  — |                    rollover |                              — | pool below 20 $HYPE doesn’t distribute and rolls over         |
