New York, USA, July 9th, 2026, Chainwire New VIP Trading Badges give high-volume traders access to CEX-style fee discounts, card rewards and expanded spending power—without surrendering custody of their assets<a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Tria</a>, the leading self-custodial neofinance platform, today became the first platform to bring VIP trading to self-custody, giving high-volume traders access to institutional-style trading rewards without giving up ownership of their digital assets.For years, active traders have faced a tradeoff. The deepest fee discounts and richest rewards were available only on centralized exchanges, where users had to relinquish custody of their assets. Self-custody offered control, but not comparable VIP incentives. Tria's new VIP Trading Badges eliminate that divide.The new program introduces an eight-tier volume ladder that rewards active futures traders based on rolling 30-day executed trading volume across Hyperliquid and Decibel. Traders begin qualifying at VIP Spark with $100,000 in volume and can advance through VIP 7, reserved for traders exceeding $100 million in rolling monthly volume.<blockquote> "VIP programs became one of the defining advantages of centralized exchanges because they rewarded the traders who create liquidity," said Ronald Tato, Tria's Head of Ecosystem. "There is no reason self-custody shouldn't offer the same experience. We built VIP Trading Badges around a simple belief: traders should never have to compromise ownership of their assets to earn institutional-caliber benefits."
</blockquote>With VIP Trading Badges, Tria becomes the first self-custodial platform to offer a volume-based rewards program comparable to those found on the world's largest centralized crypto exchanges.Each tier unlocks up to three benefits:<ul><li>Reduced futures trading fees, with discounts of up to 50%.</li><li>Higher Tria Card cashback rewards, reaching as much as 9.5%.</li><li>Increased monthly cashback-eligible spending limits, scaling to as much as $102,000 per month.</li></ul>The program extends trading activity into everyday utility by allowing active traders to translate higher trading volume into richer card rewards and greater monthly spending capacity.At VIP 7, members receive a 50% reduction in trading fees, up to 9.5% cashback on eligible card purchases, and an additional $100,000 in monthly cashback-eligible spending, increasing the total monthly spend cap to $102,000.VIP status is determined using rolling 30-day executed futures trading volume. Traders are upgraded immediately after reaching a new threshold, while earned status is guaranteed for a minimum of 30 days before any downgrade can occur if trading volume falls below the applicable tier. Cashback is capped at 10% across all tiers to ensure the program remains sustainable as participation grows.The complete VIP Trading Badges ladder includes:<ul><li>VIP Spark: $100K-$250K</li><li>VIP 1: $250K-$500K</li><li>VIP 2: $500K-$1M</li><li>VIP 3: $1M-$3M</li><li>VIP 4: $3M-$10M</li><li>VIP 5: $10M-$30M</li><li>VIP 6: $30M-$100M</li><li>VIP 7: $100M+</li></ul>Together, the eight tiers reward greater trading activity with progressively lower trading costs, richer everyday rewards and higher spending capacity while preserving the core advantage of self-custody.VIP Trading Badges represent another step in Tria's vision of bringing the capabilities traditionally associated with centralized financial platforms into a self-custodial ecosystem, allowing users to trade, earn, spend and manage digital assets without giving up control of their assets.About Tria<a href="https://www.tria.so/en" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Tria</a> is the self-custodial neofinance platform built for crypto-native users.
