Bybit, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has launched a major trading competition with a prize pool of 1,000,000 USDT. The "Boost Battle x Trade Master Champs 2026 Series 1" is a month-long event exclusive to the platform, running from its announcement on February 17, 2026, until March 15, 2026.
The competition is designed to engage traders as market sentiment and volumes show signs of renewed activity. Bybit positions the event as an incentive for traders seeking platforms that combine robust infrastructure with competitive rewards. The exchange highlighted the success of its previous TradeMasters Grand Prix (TMGP) competition, which generated over $100 billion in trading volume across an eight-week period.
Eligible users can participate through three main avenues. The Weekly Leaderboards feature four rounds, each offering prize pools of up to 70,000 USDT. A Final Leaderboard boasts a cumulative prize pool of 730,000 USDT, with the top performer eligible to win 80,000 USDT. Additionally, there are Tasks & Lucky Draws offering daily engagement opportunities with prizes of up to 200 XPL per draw.
Participants earn points based on their trading volume of non-zero-fee pairs across both spot and futures markets on Bybit. A key feature of the competition is the "boosted tokens" system, where trading specific tokens announced weekly on the event page provides an extra point multiplier.
