Bitbase launched ORIGIN, distributing 1 million points weekly through May 2027 based on trading, holdings, consistent activity and referrals. This is an original TLT brief synthesising 2 outlets (NewsBTC, BeInCrypto), plus live market data, as of Wed, 04 Nov 2026 16:00:05 UTC.

Why it matters

ORIGIN ties platform rewards to sustained participation rather than a single trading burst. Its impact for users depends on how points are distributed among contributors and whether the program improves long-term engagement with Bitbase.

What the reporting agrees on

NewsBTC, BeInCrypto and Finbold all report that Bitbase launched ORIGIN, its first Bitbase Points season, with 1 million points distributed weekly across a 26-week period ending May 4, 2027. The outlets also agree that eligible traders received points before the launch, allowing prior platform activity to count from the beginning, while points are allocated daily according to each participant’s contribution. NewsBTC and BeInCrypto provide greater detail on the four contribution categories and the automatic enrollment structure; Finbold’s supplied coverage is more limited, and no outlet contradicts the shared launch date, duration or weekly distribution figure.

Bitbase has launched ORIGIN, the first season of its Bitbase Points program, with the 26-week season scheduled to end on May 4, 2027. The exchange will issue 1 million points every week, allocating them daily according to each participant’s contribution. The program is intended to reward sustained involvement with the platform rather than concentrating benefits around one isolated period of activity. Contributions are calculated from four areas: trading, assets held on Bitbase, consistent activity and referrals. Treating continued participation as a separate category means recurring day-to-day use can add to a user’s contribution rather than only serving as a condition for qualifying. NewsBTC reports that all eligible users are enrolled automatically, including existing users and newcomers, and that referrers receive an additional 25% of a directly referred user’s contribution without reducing the referred user’s own points.

NewsBTC, BeInCrypto and Finbold corroborate the central figures and timing: ORIGIN spans 26 weeks, distributes 1 million points per week and concludes on May 4, 2027. All three also report that Bitbase credited eligible users before the official launch, so earlier trading activity counts from the first season. Their supplied coverage does not conflict on those points, although NewsBTC and BeInCrypto provide more detail about contribution categories and enrollment than Finbold’s shorter report.

The launch is the first component of Bitbase 2.0 to reach users directly, according to NewsBTC. Bitbase introduced that broader update on November 2 with a redesigned application and website and a new brand identity centered on the statement “Market Flows. We Focus.” The exchange presented the update as an effort to emphasize enduring user relationships despite constant market movement, and ORIGIN applies that approach to participation over the full six-month season.

The broader crypto backdrop was constructive but cautious at the time of the launch: total market capitalization stood at $2.73 trillion, the overall market was broadly higher, and Bitcoin was up 2.80% over 24 hours. The Fear & Greed index remained at 34, placing sentiment in the “Fear” category. No specific coin is tied to ORIGIN, making these figures broader market context rather than a direct measure of the program’s effect. What to watch next is the daily allocation of points across the four contribution sources and the extent to which the weekly distribution draws sustained trading, holdings and referrals from enrolled users.
