With referrals now live, a dedicated Rewards page, and API keys available, Kyan is starting to open up in new ways: not just for trading, but for participation, visibility, and building on top.

Early on, the focus was clear: make sure the system works under real conditions, get the core flows right, make trading reliable. Now that activity is picking up and the foundation is holding, the next step is expanding what users can do on top of it.

This update is about that shift: opening things up, making participation more visible, and giving users more ways to engage with Kyan beyond just placing trades.

Trade on Kyan mainnet and try out the new features.

Referrals, Powered by Activity

Referrals are live, with access tied to participation.

As you trade, you unlock the ability to bring others in. You unlock your first referral link by trading 75,000 USDC in notional volume. After that, for every 2,000,000 USDC in volume, a new referral link becomes available.

Referrals on Kyan

Once you start referring, the system compounds. You continue earning Krystals from your own trading, while also earning additional rewards based on the activity of the users you’ve invited.

New Rewards Hub

As participation expands, so does the need to make it legible. That’s where the new Rewards hub page comes in.

Rewards Hub on Kyan

Instead of rewards existing somewhere in the background, they now have a dedicated place within Kyan. You can see how many Krystals you’ve accumulated, track your referrals, and understand how your activity translates into rewards.

It’s a subtle shift, but an important one. Users can clearly see the output of their actions and they no longer need to be guessing what matters.

Bug Bounty Program

With more users comes more edge cases, more feedback, and more opportunities to improve the system. Rather than treating that as something external, Kyan is starting to bring it into the product itself.

Our bug bounty program is now accessible directly from the Rewards page. If something feels off, you can report it immediately, without leaving the platform.

This shortens the loop between identifying an issue and fixing it. It also reflects how Kyan is being built: not just by the team internally, but in constant interaction with the people actually using it.

Note: The exact rewards for the Bug Bounty program are being drafted as we scope out different tiers for reports. Depending on severity, valid reports can be eligible for USDC, Krystals and/or an exclusive Discord Bug Hunter role.

API Keys

As the platform matures, different types of users start to emerge. Some trade manually, others want to build on top of the system.

With the introduction of API keys, that second path is now open to everyone.

API Keys on Kyan

You can generate an API key directly from your Portfolio page and start integrating Kyan into your own workflows, whether that’s automation, strategy execution, or external tooling. It’s a step toward making Kyan not just a place to trade, but a system you can plug into.

Kyan is no longer just about execution. It’s about participation, visibility, contribution, and flexibility. Trading is still at the core, but there are now more ways to engage with the system around it.

Referrals are live. Rewards are visible. API access is available.

The best way to understand how these pieces fit together is to try them. Explore the new features on Kyan and see how they change the way you interact with the platform.
