Joining & Leaving the Collective

The Paca Collective is entirely opt-in. Holding PACA alone does not enroll you — you must actively subscribe to participate.


Joining

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

Open app.alpacadex.com and connect your Alpaca Wallet browser extension. Make sure you have PACA tokens in your wallet.

Step 2: Navigate to the Collective Page

Go to the Collective page from the sidebar menu.

Step 3: Sign & Subscribe

Click "Join the Collective". Your wallet extension will ask you to sign a message — this proves you own the wallet address. No tokens are sent, no fees are charged, and no approvals are granted.

Step 4: Wait for the Next Cycle

After subscribing, your loyalty multiplier starts growing immediately. However, your Cycle Balance will be set at the next cycle reset — so you become eligible from the next cycle onward.


What You Need

  • Alpaca Wallet extension installed in your browser
  • PACA tokens in your wallet
  • A connection to the Alpaca DEX web app

Wallet Signature

When you join, check your status, or leave the Collective, your wallet extension will prompt you to sign a message. This is a standard cryptographic signature that:

  • Proves you own the wallet address
  • Does not send any tokens or authorize any transactions
  • Does not share your private key — only a detached signature is sent
  • Is required every time you interact with the Collective (for security)

Leaving

You can leave the Collective at any time from the Membership section on your dashboard.

Click "Leave Collective" and confirm with a wallet signature. Your wallet will be immediately removed from the program.

What you lose when leaving
  • Your loyalty multiplier progress is permanently lost
  • You will not be eligible for incentives in the current cycle
  • If you rejoin later, you start from scratch at 1.00x

Frequently Asked Questions

Does joining cost anything?

No. There are no fees to join or leave the Collective. The only requirement is a wallet signature to verify ownership.

Is participation automatic for all PACA holders?

No. The Collective is strictly opt-in. You must actively subscribe by clicking "Join the Collective" and signing with your wallet. Simply holding PACA does not enroll you.

Can I join with multiple wallets?

Yes, each wallet is tracked independently. Each wallet has its own multiplier, cycle balance, and status.

What happens to my PACA when I join?

Nothing. Your tokens stay in your wallet. The Collective only reads your on-chain balance — it never moves, locks, or controls your tokens in any way.

Can I rejoin after leaving?

Yes, but you start from scratch. Your multiplier resets to 1.00x and you'll need to wait for the next cycle to begin participating.

Can the program change?

Yes. The Paca Collective is a discretionary program operated by the Alpaca DEX team. The rules, cycle duration, incentive structure, and availability may be modified or discontinued at any time.
