Participating in the ARB Chain Alpha Trading Competition is a solid way to stack up rewards if you're into active trading. The competition window closes December 25 at 16:00 UTC, and it covers trading across ARB, VSN, and LAVA tokens.

Here's how the rewards work: once the competition wraps up, you've got a two-week window to claim your Alpha Points rewards. Don't sleep on this timeline—missing the claim deadline means forfeiting what you earned.

The competition structure itself is pretty straightforward. You accumulate Alpha Points through trading activity during the competition period. The more you trade and hit certain volume thresholds, the more points stack up in your favor. It's the kind of mechanic that rewards active participants rather than casual traders.

If you've been looking for an incentive to increase trading volume or explore these specific tokens, this is your shot. The Dec 25 deadline is locked in, so mark your calendar if you're thinking about joining.
