Alpha Kings

How payouts work

Trading is simulated. Entry fees and prizes are real, where permitted.

  1. 1

    The contest ends

    Open positions are closed automatically and players are ranked by profit on simulated trades.

  2. 2

    The winner is paid in Cash

    The top player receives the prize pool minus the 5% victory fee, added to their Cash balance.

  3. 3

    Cash can be withdrawn

    Withdraw Cash as USDC on Polygon from your wallet. Two-factor authentication is required.

Example

An illustration with 3 players and a $10.00 entry fee, not a real result.

Each player pays $10.00 entry fee plus $2.00 arena fee
$12.00
Prize pool 3 entry fees
$30.00
Victory fee 5% of the prize pool
-$1.50
Winner receives
$28.50

Simulated balances are never paid out. Simulated capital and simulated profit only decide the ranking. Prizes come from the entry fees in the prize pool.

If too few players join, the contest is cancelled and the entry fee and arena fee go back to your Cash balance.
