Remind me how the trading competition works?
Here’s a quick recap about how this is going down:
Eligibility: You must be whitelisted to participate.
Starting Balance: Every participant begins with the same balance of $1,000.
Measurement: Your ranking will be based on your PnL. So you have free reign to test your craziest strategies because the higher your balance, the better your position on the leaderboard. Go wild, bros.
Duration: The competition runs throughout the testnet period – There will be three rounds:
Round 1: June 11th, 17:00 UTC - June 14th, 17:00 UTC | 500K $IDEX prize pool
Round 2: Week of June 17th | 500K $IDEX prize pool

What do I get if I win?
Aside from total degen glory, there’s a bunch of prizes on the line. We’re distributing 2 MILLION $IDEX across three competition rounds.
We’ll post the results of each round here, with payouts at the end.
We’re also gifting our brand-new exclusive Swag Pack – featuring first-ever collabs with Wassieverse and loldefi and our very own GOAT’d Collection. Bros, this is the merch of your degen dreams.
Again, here’s all the goods:
How do I make sure I get a Swag Pack?
The Top 10 traders by PnL will receive exclusive IDEX Swag Packs, guaranteed. Plus your whitelisted wallet (with a required minimum trading volume) is automatically one entry – and you’ll earn additional entries as you trade and unlock specific milestones. So get in there and get trading!
