How volume counts.

How verified swaps and campaign adjustments affect your ranking.

A qualifying swap must meet every condition

  1. 01

    It succeeds through the designated Siena Universal Router route for USDC/WETH or USDC/USDT, including the project fee.

  2. 02

    The entered wallet sends the transaction directly to the router, after both entry and campaign start, and strictly before campaign end. Smart-wallet batches and relayed swaps do not qualify.

  3. 03

    Its eligible notional is at least 10 USDC and its Siena fee matches the 0.19% campaign rate.

  4. 04

    It is verified against canonical, finalized chain data and survives eligibility review.

Count the USDC side once

10 USDC input meets the notional threshold on the output-fee route. In the reverse direction, USDC received after fees must reach 10. Smaller swaps do not combine to meet the minimum. The minimum is highlighted above the swap action and near the top of the Genesis campaign page.

USDC notional is the accounting unit. It is not an independent USD price oracle. Quote previews, approvals, transfers, failed transactions and trades outside the designated route do not count.

Why confirmed volume can take time to appear

Profile shows Verified volume and Awaiting verification separately. Confirmed, checked swaps can appear provisionally before finality and a successful volume sync. A transaction moves into verified volume without being counted twice; pending amounts are not added to the verified figure. Provisional volume does not determine campaign rankings or payouts and may be corrected or temporarily hidden if its confirmation cannot be rechecked. Network and data-source delays can extend the wait.

In Profile, Last update shows the last successful volume sync in UTC, even if that sync leaves your total unchanged. On Rankings, it shows the last leaderboard publication instead. Refreshing or reopening the page does not advance it. While a sync is running, fails, or needs review, the previous successful update time remains; before the first sync, it shows Awaiting first update. Chain and transaction hash prevent duplicate credit. The current route contains one direct pool swap per transaction. Arbitrary router batches and unrelated transfers do not qualify.

Ranking and review

Rankings shows each listed wallet’s eligible volume, position and estimated prize. Your position appears separately when you sign in. Campaign-wide volume and participant totals are not displayed.

If Rankings shows Volume update under review, the last verified standings remain visible while the new data is checked. These are provisional standings, not final prize results. Organizer-assigned totals and recorded accounting corrections may adjust Genesis volume without changing your original transactions or lifetime wallet totals. Corrections remain subject to review and appeal; finalized results cannot be edited.

Eligible volume is summed across the two campaign networks. Higher volume ranks first. Ties use earlier campaign entry, then lowercase wallet address in ascending order.

Anticheat scoring stays off during live competition. After the event ends and both campaign chains are finalized through the ending time, Siena snapshots every entered wallet—including wallets with no eligible volume—and runs the complete snapshot through graph, economic, behavioral and AI-assisted review. Processing batches do not limit which participants are reviewed. Provisional results remain locked until this review is complete.

The screening result cannot automatically exclude a wallet or change a reward. Siena reviews public transaction evidence and a plausible benign explanation before a separate human exclusion action. A shared network, shared funding source, high volume, round trade sizes, ordinary arbitrage, or any single signal alone is not sufficient evidence of abuse. Exclusions require a recorded reason and remain subject to appeal.

Understand each recorded swap

Open Profile to view your wallet’s swap history, with the pair when available, network, UTC block time, verified or observed USDC volume and an explorer link. Use Why? to see whether a swap is eligible for Genesis, awaiting verification, or ineligible. Reasons include trading before entry, outside the event, below the minimum or using an unsupported fee or route.

History reads the latest stored evidence. It does not start a new volume update. Use Refresh to check for changes; older records are available in pages of 25. A newly submitted or unsupported transaction may not appear, so keep its transaction hash.

Rows marked Eligible describe original on-chain eligibility and remain subject to review. If an organizer adjustment replaces your Genesis total, Profile shows a notice: summing individual swaps may no longer match your ranking total. Pending rows never add verified leaderboard volume.

Privacy during integrity review

During an open campaign, Siena may collect event-scoped, pseudonymous network and session correlation for authenticated sign-in, entry and swap actions, linked to the verified public wallet and coarse event timestamps. IPv4 is reduced to a /24 and IPv6 to a /48 at the trusted edge, then converted to a campaign-scoped HMAC; Siena’s application database does not store the raw IP or prefix. No canvas, audio, font-list or other hardware fingerprint is used.

Network or session correlation is supporting evidence only and is never enough by itself to exclude a wallet. Source HMAC observations are scheduled for deletion 45 days after the campaign ends. Numeric correlation counts captured in an immutable review snapshot and the resulting assessment may be retained with the campaign audit record so a reviewed decision remains reproducible. Aggregated counts—not raw IP, prefixes, cookie values or cluster identifiers—may be included in AI-assisted review.

Clarity is part of the product.
