Coinbase has provided detailed terms for its upcoming Champions Cup, a derivatives trading competition set to run from November 4 to November 25, 2026. The event is open to Coinbase Advanced users who are at least 18 years old, have completed KYC verification, and are located in eligible jurisdictions. Competitors must reach a minimum trading volume of 100 USDC in eligible derivatives—specifically perpetual futures, dated futures, or options—during the competition period. Three separate leaderboards (Notional P&L, Percent P&L, and Trading Volume) will be used, though U.S.-based participants are limited to the two P&L boards. The prize pool is scalable, starting at 100,000 USDC and potentially increasing to 2,000,000 USDC, contingent on total trading volume. Prizes are distributed after final account verification, with standard fees and risks associated with crypto trading. Full terms and conditions apply.
