Bybit Unveils Major Football Season 2026 Campaign With $1 Million Prize Pool

Bybit Unveils Football Season 2026 Campaign

On June 9, 2026, Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, kicked off its Football Season 2026 campaign, inviting crypto enthusiasts and football fans to engage in an exciting multi-stage event. The campaign, themed "The Pitch is Everywhere," integrates football match predictions with trading activities, offering a total prize pool of up to one million dollars.

Campaign Overview

The campaign will unfold from June 9 through July 19, 2026, structured into three distinct stages. Each stage corresponds with key phases of the football season: the Group Stage (June 9-28), the Knockout Stage (June 28 - July 12), and the Finals (July 12-19). Participants are encouraged to join, as the format permits each user to engage in trading and predicting match outcomes while sharing in the available rewards.

The framework promotes a unique approach where no rankings or winner-takes-all systems are established. Instead, participants will receive rewards based on the number of Points they accumulate. The more Points a user earns by trading and predicting correctly, the larger their share of the prize pool.

Participation Requirements

To be eligible for rewards, users must accumulate a minimum of 30 net Points in any given stage, achieved through daily tasks and trading milestones. Once eligible, they can predict the outcomes of football matches, which will be rewarded based on a dynamic community-driven match multiplier. However, stakes on incorrect predictions will be forfeited, making correct forecasting key to accumulating wealth.

This innovative campaign structure resets Points balances at the start of each stage, providing all participants an equal opportunity to compete again after each phase.

Prize Distribution

At the conclusion of each stage, Bybit will allocate the prize pool proportionally among all qualifying participants according to their net Points. The prize pool for each stage varies from $50,000 to $325,000, depending on total community net Points accumulated during that stage.

Participants can expect rewards to be distributed in Mantle (MNT) tokens, valued at USD-equivalent at the time of distribution, which occurs within ten business days after each stage concludes. New users can also tap into an introductory offer, receiving a $5 MNT airdrop after depositing a minimum of $100 and making a trade of at least $10.

Eligibility and Restrictions

While participation promises to be lucrative, eligibility comes with specific requirements, including Identity Verification Level 1 and geographic restrictions due to regulatory compliance. Therefore, users from certain regions like the United Kingdom and some countries in the European Economic Area will not have access to the campaign, which limits participation to regions where Bybit operates within legal frameworks.
