Bybit Unveils WSOT 2025 with an Impressive Prize Pool

Bybit, recognized as the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is thrilled to announce a transformative edition of its flagship trading competition, the World Series of Trading (WSOT). Set to commence on August 12, 2025, this year’s WSOT introduces an astonishing prize pool of 10 million USDT while eliminating all entry barriers, paving the way for a more inclusive trading environment.

Emphasizing a Democratic Trading Experience

The WSOT 2025 strives to revolutionize crypto trading competitions by embodying inclusivity, engagement, and fairness. By removing any capital requirement for participants during the registration phase, Bybit aims to democratize access to what has become one of the most prestigious trading competitions in the cryptocurrency sector. Traders who complete the KYC verification are now eligible to register without financial prerequisites, allowing all skill levels to participate seamlessly.

This year’s competition promises to support a diverse range of traders by expanding its global arena, empowering them to seize on-chain opportunities and explore tokenized offerings in traditional finance. Bybit's recent focus on forging partnerships with ecosystem partners aims to enhance the competitive landscape by ensuring all traders can showcase their skills effectively.

Fresh Competition Structure and Rich Prize Opportunities

The format for WSOT 2025 has evolved significantly. Alongside the main tournament, participants can engage in various side events like the pregame WSOT Trader's Camp and the WSOT On-Chain Trader House, co-hosted with Bybit Web3 and Byreal. These events open alternative avenues to win from separate prize pools and bonuses, adding layers of excitement for traders.

The new competition structure adopts a tiered and weighted system, allowing participants to compete within their own classes based on capital contributions, ranging from Beginner ($100) to Heavyweight ($10,000). Each category has special prize pools dedicated to fostering fair competition. The main event will run from August 27 to September 15, featuring reward categories with a combined prize pool of 8 million USDT.

The four reward categories and their respective prize distributions are as follows:
1. Global Squad PnL%: $3.6 million, awarded to the top 40 teams based on performance.
2. Global Individual Profit: $1.2 million awarded to individual participants based on their “weight” category.
3. Regional Trading Volume: $2.44 million allocated across nine regions categorized by trading volumes.
4. Individual Daily PnL%: A fixed daily prize pool of $40,000 will be awarded to the top 100 winners over the competition’s duration.
