# Potential Campaigns

> Campaigns on Decibel's roadmap that may or may not launch — Trading Competitions and more.

These campaigns are on Decibel's roadmap. They are not live, may or may not launch, and details are subject to change. If activated, they would use the same **/rewards** claim flow as live campaigns.

<Warning>**Roadmap only — not committed and not live.** The campaigns below are ideas on Decibel's roadmap that may or may not be activated. Details are subject to change. These cannot be participated in today. If activated, they would use the same **/rewards** claim flow as live campaigns.</Warning>

## Trading Competitions <Badge>Potential</Badge>

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:**

```
ROI = realized_pnl / max(min_threshold, starting_equity + max_net_deposits)
```

The formula prevents mid-competition deposit changes; you can't inflate your base right before the end to spike your ROI.

**Equity tiers:**

| Bracket      | Starting Equity    | Prize Share |
| ------------ | ------------------ | ----------- |
| Lightweight  | \< \$1,000         | 20%         |
| Middleweight | \$1,000 – \$10,000 | 30%         |
| Heavyweight  | \$10,000+          | 50%         |

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Weekly">
    * 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.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Quarterly Flagship">
    * 2-week duration, themed (e.g., "Decibel vs. CEX", BTC-only).
    * Top 10 per tier with heavier weighting at the top.
    * Coordinated with KOL outreach, social campaigns, and potential livestreams.
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

**Fair play rules:**

* 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.

**Prize settlement:**

* 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.
