Team BTC Profit Tournament Prize Pool

To promote friendly competition and collaboration in our community, this will be a team-based tournament. The dynamic prize pool amount will be determined by the number of participants so we encourage more participation from the community to help us reach the maximum total prize pool of 1,500,000 USD.

Here is how the dynamic prize pool will work:

Team BTC Profit Rewards: Awarded 90% of the Dynamic Prize Pool

All teams that trade in COIN-margined “COIN-Ⓜ” and USDT-margined “USDT-Ⓜ” contracts on Binance Futures during the competition period will be ranked based on their total BTC Team Profit performance, calculated as the sum of the top 10 individual BTC profit results within the team.

BTC will be used as the statistical unit of P&L in this tournament, and P&L from COIN-Ⓜ Futures contracts will be multiplied by 2 (two) to calculate the final P&L to determine the rankings.

Team BTC Profit Comeback: Awarded 10% of the Dynamic Prize Pool

Teams that do not qualify for Profit Rewards can qualify for the Profit Comeback prizes. All teams will be ranked by their “comeback score”, which is calculated as the difference between each team‘s lowest P&L ranking at any time during the tournament period and each team’s final P&L ranking at the end of the tournament period.

The teams with the top five comeback scores will share 10% of the dynamic prize pool:

The prize distribution within the winning Profit Reward and Profit Comeback teams is as follows:

Each Team leader will receive 30% of their team’s total reward.
The top 10 individual USDT profit contributors in each team will equally split 20% of their team’s total reward.
All other team members will equally split 50% of their team’s total reward.
Note that only team leaders and team members with 5 BTC or more in futures trading volume during the competition period will receive a split of team rewards.

Bonus Pool for Top 20 Most Popular Team Leaders

To recognize the leadership and guidance of tournament team leaders, Binance will further reward a total of $51,000 in BNB tokens to the top 20 teams with the most number of teammates with 5 or more BTC in trading volume each during the tournament. So the more team members you have as a team leader, the higher chances you have of winning. The rewards are:
