# Spending Zen Points

Zen Points earned through trading activities, challenges, staking, special events, and referrals can be redeemed for various benefits. The system is designed to provide users with significant incentives for active participation, allowing them to use their points for fee reductions, revenue shares, private deals, and more.

1. **Fee Reduction**
2. **Global Rev Share**
3. **Lotto Rev Share**
4. **Private Deals**

<mark style="background-color:purple;">**Fee Reduction**</mark>

Points can be used to reduce the trading fees charged by the bot. The following table shows the points required and the corresponding fee reductions:

| Points    | Trading Fees | Term      |
| --------- | ------------ | --------- |
| 1,000     | 0.95%        | 1 Month   |
| 10,000    | 0.85%        | 3 Months  |
| 50,000    | 0.75%        | 6 Months  |
| 250,000   | 0.60%        | 12 Months |
| 1,000,000 | 0.50%        | 12 Months |

Users can spend points on fee reductions to decrease the fees charged by the bot, providing cost savings on their trading activities.

<mark style="background-color:purple;">**Unstaking Fees**</mark>

Users can unstake their tokens from the respective ranks they hold, but this is subject to an early unstaking fee. This fee can be paid either in tokens or through Zen Points that have been accumulated.

<mark style="background-color:purple;">**Global Rev Share**</mark>

Users can convert their points into a share of the global revenue generated by the bot. Here’s how it works:

* Trade $10,000 in a week to earn 10,000 points.
* Submit 5,000 points for global rev share to earn a fraction of the weekly fees.
* Example: If 1,000,000 points are submitted, you would have 5,000/1,000,000 = 0.5% of the weekly fees.
* If $10,000 in fees are generated, you would earn 0.5%, which equals $50.

As the project scales and more users join, the volume and fees will increase, enhancing the rewards.

<mark style="background-color:purple;">**Lotto Rev Share**</mark>

The Lotto Rev Share provides an opportunity to win a significant portion of the weekly fees. Here’s how it works:

* Only 10 winners will share 10% of the weekly fees, each earning 1%.
* Each point acts as a ticket entry, increasing your chances of winning.
* Example: If $1,000,000 in weekly fees are generated, 10% is reserved for Lotto Rev Share.
* If you are a winner, you would earn $10,000.

(Currently, the top 5 bots are generating at least $1,000,000 per week at the time of writing this).

<mark style="background-color:purple;">**Private Deals**</mark>

Zen Points can be used to gain allocations in exclusive seed, private, and IDO deals through our network of partners. Here’s how it works:

* Each point equals $1 allocation to any deal.
* There will be a maximum amount a user can put per deal on a first-come, first-served basis.
* To increase allocations, refer back to the earn section above. The most appealing way is to trade through the bot, which increases trading volume.

The system is designed to reward loyal users and provide more than just the trading bot itself. There will be more opportunities and benefits to come in the future.
