Ready to start off winter season? We’re launching the Winter Futures Challenge – a three-week competition built around one clear idea: quality over quantity. Your position in the ranking is determined by the average ROI from your three best qualified trades. Straightforward rules, transparent scoring and a prize pool that grows with participation.
Who can join?
The challenge is open to all Kanga users who complete KYC before the end of the event. It does not matter whether you trade regularly or you are still experimenting with strategies. The structure rewards efficiency, not portfolio size. To appear on the leaderboard, you need to execute at least three transactions worth a minimum of 30 USDC each.
How the leaderboard works?
Every trade ≥30 USDC is considered, and the system selects your three trades with the highest ROI. Their average determines your score. If a new trade performs better than the lowest one in your current top three, it replaces it and improves your overall result.
This makes the ranking dynamic and ensures that it reflects skill and timing rather than the number of executed trades.
Prize pool
The Winter Futures Challenge awards the top 30 participants. The prize pool starts at 5,000 USDC and can grow to 10,000 USDC. It increases by 1,000 USDC for every additional 100 participants. The highest positions can expect rewards reaching up to two thousand USDC, but every place in the top 30 is rewarded.
The challenge is built for traders who prefer strategic, well-thought-out decisions. You can improve your ranking step by step by replacing weaker trades with stronger ones. The mechanics are simple, the evaluation is automatic, and the emphasis is on skill, not scale.
It’s a good way to close the year with a focused approach to futures trading… and an opportunity to earn a share of the prize pool. Are you ready?
