BYDFi's Autumn Futures Challenge starts today

Event window

2026/10/31 00:00 to 2026/12/01 00:00 (UTC+8). That is Oct 30, 12:00 PM ET to Nov 30, 11:00 AM ET.

The three boards

Profit and ROI boards each split the same way: 1st 22% (6,600), 2nd 18% (5,400), 3rd 12% (3,600), 4th-6th share 28% (8,400), 7th-10th share 20% (6,000).

The individual payout on the profit and ROI boards is the tier pool x 50% x (your volume share + your performance share), with each share capped at 50%. Volume and results both count.

Rules that matter

• KYC is required, and you register through the event page.
• Keep at least 100 USDT equivalent in the futures account.
• At least 500 USDT of cumulative futures volume to qualify for profit and ROI.
• At least 500 USDT of futures volume that day to qualify for the daily board.
• Daily volume rewards are paid every Wednesday for the prior week; profit and ROI after the event.
• Wash trading or bulk accounts get disqualified.

Trading read

An ROI board is the one that pushes people toward the most leverage. A small account with a lucky 100x trade can top ROI, so the board rewards variance, not skill. The formula softens that a little, since half of the payout weight is your volume share, so a tiny account with one great trade still collects less than a mid-size account that traded actively.

The daily volume board is a fee race. Top 3 on a single day of volume means real size, and the futures bonus you win has to cover the taker fees you paid to get there. Run that math before you chase it.

For everyone else, the event mainly means more futures turnover on BYDFi through November. More competing traders using leverage means more stop and liquidation clusters around obvious levels, so expect sharper wicks on popular perps during busy US hours.
