Bybit, the world’s second-largest crypto exchange by trading volume, has introduced “Master Trader’s Showtime: TradFi vs Crypto,” a worldwide multi-stage trading contest aimed at showcasing the performance of both traditional finance and cryptocurrency trading strategies. The event carries a combined prize pool of 200,000 USDT.

The tournament will be conducted in two separate rounds. The first round is currently underway and continues until May 13, 2026, at 10:00 UTC. The second round will begin on May 18, 2026, at 10:00 UTC and conclude on June 2, 2026, at 10:00 UTC. Each phase will feature an independent leaderboard along with a dedicated reward pool worth 100,000 USDT.

Competitors will participate as Master Traders through Bybit Copy Trading, choosing either the Classic or TradFi category during registration. Rankings will be based on a mix of total team trading volume and profit-and-loss performance, incorporating the activity of both Master Traders and their Followers. Users who copy an eligible Master Trader will automatically join the competition as Followers.

To secure a place on the leaderboard, participants must satisfy minimum trading requirements. Traders in the Classic category need at least 75,000 USDT in cumulative Copy Trading volume, while TradFi participants must generate a minimum of 1,500,000 USDx. In addition, every Master Trader must maintain at least 20 active Followers.

The top 50 Master Traders from each round will earn rewards. The winning team will receive 25,000 USDT, while second and third place will take home 12,000 USDT and 8,000 USDT respectively. Remaining prizes will be allocated across other qualifying ranks. Half of the total rewards will go to Master Traders, with the remaining portion distributed among Followers according to their trading volume contribution.

Beyond leaderboard prizes, the campaign also offers engagement incentives. During the opening week of each round, users can assign “likes” to Master Traders. If a supported trader secures a top-three finish, qualifying users may share a 1,000 USDT bonus pool. Extra boosted rewards are also available for users who both like and continuously copy a Master Trader during the competition period.

Leaderboard results will be refreshed daily on a T+1 schedule, while final standings will undergo internal compliance and data verification checks. Eligible participants will receive their USDT rewards via airdrop within 14 working days after each round ends.

Participation is restricted by eligibility rules, including mandatory identity verification and regional limitations. Users located within the European Economic Area are not permitted to join, and institutional accounts as well as market makers are excluded from the event.

The competition aims to promote skill-based trading while supporting transparency and fairness within Bybit’s Copy Trading platform.

Metalpha Technology Holding Limited, a global provider of blockchain and digital trading technology solutions, has announced that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Exos Financial LLC, a New York–based technology-focused financial services firm, and BlockchainK2 Corp. (TSXV: BITK), a publicly listed Canadian blockchain holding company. The three companies plan to establish a joint venture to deliver compliant, institutional-grade digital asset services, primarily targeting clients in the United States.

This planned joint venture brings together three complementary organizations to meet increasing demand for crypto-related financial services in the US market. The collaboration will combine Metalpha’s expertise in cryptocurrency derivatives and liquidity solutions, Exos Financial’s regulated investment banking and asset management capabilities led by former Credit Suisse CEO Brady Dougan, and BlockchainK2’s tokenization and fund distribution technologies. Together, they aim to bridge traditional finance with the digital asset ecosystem.

According to the MOU, the new business will focus on serving institutional clients in the US through three main areas: customized OTC derivatives and risk management solutions for institutions and miners, the development of digital asset investment strategies such as crypto relative value approaches, and securities-linked products that offer exposure to digital assets.

Adrian Wang, CEO of Metalpha, stated that the agreement marks an important step in the company’s global growth strategy. He highlighted that partnering with Exos and BlockchainK2 will enable Metalpha to enter the US market with a compliant institutional offering while leveraging Exos’s market expertise and BlockchainK2’s technology infrastructure to deliver its derivative products to US clients.

Brady Dougan, Founder and CEO of Exos Financial, noted that integrating technology with regulatory compliance is central to the future of finance. He emphasized that the partnership will expand Exos’s institutional platform into digital assets, providing clients with advanced strategies supported by institutional-grade infrastructure.

Sergei Stetsenko, CEO of BlockchainK2, added that the collaboration combines Metalpha’s trading capabilities, Exos’s institutional experience, and BlockchainK2’s technology ecosystem to create a strong platform for growth, addressing key challenges faced by US institutions seeking digital asset exposure.
