Pacifica, a perpetual contract trading platform operating on Solana, has announced a substantial increase in its weekly point allocation to 10 million tokens starting October 30, 2025.

The new VIP program, which links fee reductions to recent trading activity, echoes loyalty schemes in traditional finance, but adapts them to the open, permissionless environment of blockchain—a point emphasized by Lookonchain.
