$100k Optimism Trading Competition

In partnership with Synthetix, dHEDGE DAO are holding an Optimistic Ethereum Launch Trading Competition.

We’re excited to encourage early adoption of dHEDGE on Optimism, enabling fund managers access to lightning fast transaction speeds and zero slippage trades using Synthetix synths.

Prizes will be awarded to investors via two mechanisms:

  1. Being invested in any of the pools which finish in the Top 5 at the end of the 30 day period, and
  2. By way of lottery, awarded to one random eligible investor per day over 30 days

Backing the best managers

  • Prize pool of $70k ($50k DHT, $20k SNX)
  • Awarded to winning pools at the end of the competition
  • Winning pools are the top 5 pools. All top 5 pools will have equal weight. Investing in 1st place will result in the same award if the same amount was invested in 5th place.
  • Winnings are awarded by the amount invested over each day of the 30 days. This means, $2.3k  ($70k / 30 days) will be split between investors each day, based on how much they had invested that day in any of the 5 winning pools.
  • Prizes to be distributed to investors in each of the top 5 pools at the end of the 30 day competition.

Daily Lottery

  • Prize pool of $30k (SNX)
  • Awarded to any address invested in eligible dHEDGE pools on Optimism throughout the competition period by way of random lottery.
