Trading Competitions Potential
Compete against other traders for a share of prize pools. Competitions use ROI-based scoring with equity-tiered brackets, so it’s fair for retail, not just whoever has the biggest account. Two cadences: weekly recurring competitions and larger quarterly flagship events. Scoring:| Bracket | Starting Equity | Prize Share |
|---|---|---|
| Lightweight | < $1,000 | 20% |
| Middleweight | $1,000 – $10,000 | 30% |
| Heavyweight | $10,000+ | 50% |
- Weekly
- Quarterly Flagship
- Monday 00:00 UTC → Sunday 23:59 UTC.
- Top 5 per tier, plus 2 random draws from anyone with positive PnL.
- Minimum $25,000 cumulative volume during the week to qualify for prizes.
- Minimum $25,000 cumulative volume to qualify for prizes.
- Your starting equity minus withdrawals can’t drop below your tier cutoff.
- Internal accounts (admins, market makers, oracles) are excluded.
- Sub-accounts under the same owner are consolidated into one entry.
- Top finishers are reviewed before prizes are distributed.
- After a competition ends, final standings are calculated and prizes are published on-chain.
- Prizes appear as a claimable tile on /rewards, following the same claim flow as all other campaigns.

Migration Bonus
Migration Bonus
A one-time bonus for traders migrating from other decentralized or centralized exchanges, tiered by historical trading volume. To unlock, you’d deposit on Decibel and hit a minimum cumulative volume threshold. Exact tiers and thresholds will be announced before launch.
OI Funding Rebates
OI Funding Rebates
A recurring rebate for traders who hold open interest on the paying side of the funding rate. This rewards genuine directional exposure… accounts running offsetting positions across correlated markets to farm rebates would be excluded.
First Trade On Us
First Trade On Us
A zero-cost onboarding experience for new depositors. You’d pick a market and direction through an interactive tutorial, and a virtual simulation tracks the mark price for a short window. If the price moves in your favor, you receive a USD-denominated stablecoin reward. If not, nothing happens, no real position is opened, and your deposit is never at market risk.
Volume Milestones
Volume Milestones
Always-on achievement rewards triggered when you cross lifetime bona fide trading volume thresholds, $100K, $1M, and $10M. Once you qualify, you can claim your reward on /rewards at any time.
Deposit Match, Referral Credits & Comeback Bonus
Deposit Match, Referral Credits & Comeback Bonus
Deposit Match pays a trading credit when your collateral exceeds a threshold. Referral Credits rewards both you and the people you refer once they hit activity thresholds. Comeback Bonus targets users who’ve been inactive for 30+ days and return with a redeposit.
Fee Holiday
Fee Holiday
A temporary zero-trading-fee window (e.g., 48 hours) is activated after your first deposit. No claiming needed. Fees are simply waived during the window.
