Bitget celebrates its eighth anniversary with an $80,000 futures trading tournament featuring high-value prizes and incentives for traders.
Bitget, a cryptocurrency exchange, is celebrating its eighth anniversary by launching a trading tournament with a prize pool of $80,000. The competition, which started on September 23 and runs until October 8, rewards participants engaged in futures trading with prizes that include high-end gadgets like the iPhone 18 Pro and cryptocurrency payouts.
Competitive Structure
The tournament consists of two key components: a Return on Investment (ROI) competition and rewards for traders who achieve higher VIP statuses. To qualify for the top ten based on ROI, traders must maintain a positive return and a trading volume of at least 1 million USDT. Those trading with volumes starting at 100,000 USDT will also be eligible to share $8,000 in ETH, although individual payouts are capped at $100.
ROI Prize Breakdown
- 1st Place: iPhone 18 Pro 512 GB ($1,399);
- 2nd Place: Apple Watch Ultra 4 ($799);
- 3rd Place: Apple Watch Series 12 ($399);
- 4th to 10th Places: AirPods 5 ($149 each).
As of September 24, the leaderboard indicates a top trader with an ROI of 72.6% and a trading volume nearing 25,327 USDT. However, none of the top ten have yet reached the 1 million USDT volume threshold.
VIP Status Incentives
The second aspect of the tournament offers $68,000 in bonuses to users who enhance their VIP status through futures trading. The bonuses increase proportionately with the VIP level, culminating in a maximum payout of $1,500 in ETH for those reaching the highest tier. There are a limited number of bonuses available, meaning that as tiers fill up, payouts may shift to lower levels based on trading results.
Bitget will conclude the VIP status determination on October 8 at 18:59 (Kyiv/MSK), and winners will be notified within a week, having a limited time to claim their rewards.
How to Enter
Interested traders can join the tournament by registering on the tournament page. Eligible trading pairs include perpetual futures for USDT-M, USDC-M, and Coin-M, excluding the USDC/USDT pair and CFDs.
This tournament coincides with Bitget's ongoing efforts to develop a universal exchange model that combines cryptocurrencies, tokenized assets, and traditional finance within a single platform. Additionally, a recent promotion launched on September 17 features an $88,000 prize pool in Bitcoin and USDT for users from the CIS and Ukraine.
