Phemex has introduced the 2026 Ultimate Championship, a crypto trading competition scheduled to run from June 8 to July 20, 2026, and timed to coincide with the FIFA World Cup. The event features a $7,000,000 USDT prize pool distributed across several tracks, including World Cup match predictions, a country-based trading cup influenced by football results, prediction market sprints, and guaranteed-win blind boxes, all using the in-game currency "Golden Ball."

Participants earn Golden Balls by completing onboarding and daily trading-related tasks, with an early-bird period (June 8–11) offering bonus rewards for prompt engagement. Additional incentives include a separate $100 USDT giveaway for users supporting a chosen team in a promotional Trading Showdown. Golden Balls must be used by July 20, 2026, as they expire after this date.

How to participate

To join the Phemex 2026 Ultimate Championship, register a Phemex account and complete identity verification. Enroll for the championship event and finish onboarding and daily tasks to earn in-game Golden Balls, which are used to participate in activities such as World Cup predictions, country trading competitions, blind box rewards, and prediction market sprints. For early participation during June 8–11, extra Golden Balls are earned for each completed task. Users can start by visiting the official sign-up link.
