May was packed. Grab all the highlights from Monday Trade: new portfolio experience, and campaign highlights
We’re back for another round of monthly highlights.
Bitcoin ETFs faced record outflows exceeding $2-3B amid rising Treasury yields, higher-for-longer rate expectations, and capital rotation toward AI/altcoins, even as the Clarity Act advanced in the Senate, offering long-sought regulatory certainty for digital assets.
Meanwhile, Real-World Assets continued their rise.
The RWA market crossed ~$31-34B in on-chain value, with continued strong growth and support driven by tokenized U.S. Treasuries.
On Monday Trade, a new portfolio experience landed, 25+ tokenized stocks said hello, and campaigns took flight.
Here’s what’s been happening 👇

aBIL Dividends May Payout
Did we mention a dividend payout? Traders who participated in the aBIL/USDC TVL campaign received their first USDC payout in May.
- Distributed amount: 307.8 USDC
- Addresses: 22
- Official announcement
If you’re participating in the next aBIL/earnAUSD TVL Campaign (see more below), expect to receive USDC dividend payouts for June!
Perp Markets Close, but are Coming Back
In case you missed last month’s development, that’s right, perp markets have closed.
Rest assured, they’re coming back. It’s not an official goodbye, but only just the beginning.
As we lead into the next phase of Monday Trade, Real-World Asset adoption are taking place, and that’s where we want to be.
Perps are only temporarily winding down and expected to return to RWA markets.

Campaign Highlights
May was the month we stayed here for the community, and the community really showed up.
Take a trip down memory lane and see what you’ve missed with campaigns:
RWA MON Competition
With $11,000 $MON rewards, the competition was fierce. The top 10 traders competed for leaderboard rewards and battled it out to stand at the top.
aBIL/USDC TVL Campaign
aBIL entered the chat. In May, we introduced the first aBIL/USDC TVL Campaign, giving traders the ability to earn:
- $5K $MON rewards
- 0.3% trading fees
- 4% of annual interest paid monthly in USDC
- 4x points
The result? aBIL shot up in RWA trading, attracting new liquidity and demonstrating growing demand for yield-bearing real-world assets onchain.
The Monday Trade Maverick Ambassador Program
Last month, the Monday Trade Maverick Ambassador Program officially ended.
15 content creators took X to spread the word about Monday Trade and showcase the power of perps and RWAs to their own communities and to the wider Web3 audience.
Over 150 pieces of content were produced and shared, focused on RWA education and providing long-term value.
We thank all of our amazing Mavericks for their continuous support.
