For creators and sponsors
Challenges
Running and sponsoring permissionless PnL challenges — tickets, brackets, payouts and re-buys.
How to Run a Crypto PnL Challenge
Ticket mode versus sponsored mode, the exact ticket economics, choosing brackets and payout splits, and what happens between publishing and settlement.
Sponsor a Trading Challenge and Earn From Entries
Sponsored mode turns a seeded prize pool into a revenue product — how the ticket split works, what the cut ceiling is, and the risk if nobody enters.
Volume Brackets: Why Whales Can't Buy the Win
How the min and max volume bracket works in a PnL challenge, how over-cap profit gets pro-rated out, and why it makes small-account contests viable.
Challenge Re-Buys Explained
A re-buy is a second leaderboard line, not a second chance at the first one. How the freeze works, why you must be flat to buy one, and the caps.
KOL vs KOL Trading Duels
The 1v1 duel format as content — winner takes all, no volume cap, 24 hours. How two creators set one up and why it films better than a leaderboard.
One-Dollar Micro Arenas
The minimum challenge ticket is $1. What a nearly-free contest is actually for, the economics at that scale, and why the pool stays as small as it sounds.
Private Challenges for Your Community
Private challenges are link-only and creator-approved. How the join-request flow works, where capacity is enforced, and what it is genuinely good for.
The Five Challenge Templates, Walked Through
Micro Arena, Mid Stakes, Whale Pit, 1v1 Duel and Custom — the real numbers behind each template and which one fits the room you are trying to fill.
The Poker Payout Curve
How percentage-of-field prize buckets resolve into per-rank payouts — the rank^-0.8 decay, the winner count formula, and the flattening pass that follows.
Why Everyone Starts Flat
A challenge line does not score until your account is flat on the scored markets. The reasoning, the exact boundary, and why the check fails closed.
