Fairground

Fairground is a decentralized perpetuals exchange built by Forte, in testnet on Arbitrum Sepolia. It has no funding rates: each market uses a single oracle price for execution, PnL and liquidations, and fees are only charged when a position changes. You can trade crypto (BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE, XRP, ZEC, LIT, NEAR), gold, silver and FX pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, JPY/USD, AUD/USD). In Season 3 the testnet hit $4.4B in single-day volume and passed 1 million trades.

Season 4 is the final testnet phase: it runs from October 26 at 16:00 UTC to November 9 at 16:00 UTC, in two weekly epochs. Every day at 16:00 UTC participants receive 2,000 testnet USDC (plus some testnet ETH for gas). You earn XP, distributed at the end of each epoch, to climb the leaderboard.

How to participate

1. Get access: Season 4 is invite-only. If you traded in a previous season, just reconnect the same wallet. If you're new, ask an active trader from past seasons for a referral link (each has only 2) and register through it. There is no public waitlist and no way to unlock invites through volume.
2. Wait for the email: if selected, you'll get instructions from access@fairground.fi. Registration asks for an email and wallet; socials are optional.
3. Connect your wallet on Fairground: an EVM wallet (MetaMask, Rabby, etc.) or social login (email, Google, X, Telegram, Discord), which creates one for you. If you use your own wallet, add the Arbitrum Sepolia network.
4. Trade with testnet USDC: market, limit, stop loss and take profit orders on crypto, metals and FX. XP depends on trading activity, PnL, rebates and feedback; you don't need to be profitable every day.
5. Try no-rush orders if you want to provide liquidity: they collect the impact fee from standard orders and accrue rebates, which also count toward XP.
6. Share feedback and report bugs on Discord: they can earn bonus XP. Check your XP after each epoch (November 2 and 9).

Disclaimers: XP gives no right to tokens or future rewards and can be changed or reset; the airdrop is not confirmed. Bots, sybils and self-referrals are excluded. Testnet funds have no value and cannot be withdrawn. Sanctioned countries and China are excluded.

Anti-scam: the official domains are fairground.fi (with app.fairground.fi and docs.fairground.fi) and forte.io. Access emails only come from access@fairground.fi. The team will never ask for your seed phrase or private keys, and the testnet needs no real funds. DYOR.
