CZ Joins as Advisor, YZI Labs Invests Millions, Genius Point Farming Guide
Original Title: "YZi Labs Invests Tens of Millions of Dollars, CZ Personally Serves as Advisor, How to Earn Genius Points?"
Original Author: Asherdai, Odaily Planetary Daily
Last night, a major news exploded in the community — YZi Labs has invested "tens of millions of dollars" in DEX Genius, and CZ will also personally join as an advisor.
Odaily Planetary Daily took everyone to understand Genius for the first time, interact with Genius step by step, and gave the current interaction strategy after personal testing.
Project Introduction

Genius is a privacy-focused decentralized trading platform that offers spot, perpetual contracts, and copy trading, supporting over 10 blockchains including BNB Chain and Solana, aiming to be Binance's on-chain alternative — bringing the speed, liquidity, and privacy experience of CEX to the chain while maintaining full self-custody, non-custodial (users hold the private keys). The platform has processed over $60 million in trading volume during the testing phase and plans to launch a public privacy protocol test in Q2 2026. As early as October 2024, Genius announced the completion of a $6 million seed round of financing, led by CMCC Global, with participation from Cadenza Ventures, AVA Labs, Arca, Flow Traders, and other institutions.
Regarding the community's belief that "YZi Labs investing in Genius is negative news for Aster," CZ responded in a post on Platform X, stating, "Genius is a trading terminal connected to the trading platform, not a competitor to Aster."
In addition, Genius's CMO, Ryan, also answered similar questions in the community — "How do you see the difference between Aster and Genius? Why would YZi Labs reinvest in another project doing Perp Dex?" Ryan said, "I think both are very important. Aster is a very important perpetual contract exchange. I think the motivation for YZi Labs to invest in Genius is to allow everyone to access any token on any chain (soon in a private way)."

Genius CMO Ryan Discusses the Relationship Between Aster and Genius
It is easy to see that both CZ and the Genius team believe that Genius and Aster have different positioning and are not in direct competition.
Step-by-Step Guide
STEP 1. Visit the official website (link: https://www.tradegenius.com), click on "Start Trading," then click on "Sign In" at the top to log in to your account via your wallet.


STEP 2. Click on "Airdrop" at the top to view your current account GP points balance and personal referral link.

STEP 3. In the "Airdrop" section below, the first item is "Points." By accumulating a $10,000 trading volume, you can receive 1200 GP points. For every additional $1,000 in trading volume after surpassing $10,000, you can earn 200 GP points. Additionally, every daily trade on the platform grants you a free spin on the prize wheel. For every additional $10,000 in trading volume, you earn an extra spin on the wheel, with no limit.


Other rules for earning points through trading:
· Users earn 1 GP point for every $100 of spot trading volume or $1,000 of perpetual futures contract trading volume;
· After trading continuously for 7 days, you will receive a trading streak multiplier (interrupting the streak for one day will reset the multiplier);
· The base multiplier and streak multiplier apply to users' spot and perpetual futures contract trading (recommended points are not included).

STEP 4. In the "Airdrop" section below, the next item is "Referrals." Invite friends to earn more GP points.

STEP 5. The bottom section of the "Airdrop" is the "Social" (the "Token Rewards" section is temporarily unavailable, so skip it for now), which contains official social media information.

STEP 6. Click on "Deposit" at the top to deposit assets supporting EVM, Solana, and SUI. It is recommended to send ETH or USDC.

Current "Minimum Guaranteed Earnings Points" Strategy Sharing
After actual interaction, I have summarized the strategy for "Minimum Guaranteed Earnings Points." The specific operational train of thought is as follows:
1. To minimize the erosion caused by token price fluctuations, USDC-USDT spot trading was chosen.

2. Try to make each transaction volume as large as possible. In a real test, the gas fees for trading $400 and $100 were almost the same.


3. Once the trading volume reaches $10,000 to unlock the lucky draw, daily trading to qualify for the lucky draw can be done with a single transaction. There is no need to "aggressively increase trading volume."
