# Why a Score Program?

Jasper Vault is a **Perpetuals + Options (PP)** derivatives protocol. Unlike platforms that focus purely on volume, Jasper Vault places strong emphasis on:

* Correct product usage
* Meaningful risk exposure
* Sustainable, long-term participation

The Score Program exists to:

* Record genuine participation instead of short-term activity
* Encourage responsible trading and risk management
* Preserve early and long-term contributors’ historical value
