ANT Trading Championship
The ANT Trading Championship is a three-week trading competition on Hypercall. Only ANT options count. The top five eligible traders share a $1,000 prize pool paid in SYN.
There is no registration. Connect your wallet at app.hypercall.xyz and trade ANT options.
Competition window
November 11 to December 2, 2026. The competition starts November 11, 2026 at 19:00 UTC and ends December 2, 2026 at 19:00 UTC.
Only activity inside this window counts.
Scope
Only ANT options count toward the competition. No other market counts.
Scoring
Every eligible trader is ranked by a single score:
Only positive competition PnL is multiplied. Zero or negative PnL cannot win a prize.
Volume multiplier
| Tier | Qualifying volume | Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | $1,000 | 1x |
| 2 | $10,000 | 1.5x |
| 3 | $100,000 | 2x |
A tier applies once your qualifying volume reaches its threshold. A trader with 100,000 or more scores 2x.
Qualifying volume
Each ANT options fill contributes the lower of:
- the underlying notional of the fill, or
- 300× the premium of the fill.
This keeps the volume tiers tied to real trading activity.
Competition PnL
Competition PnL includes:
- Realized PnL from closing fills in ANT options during the competition window.
- Net settlement PnL from ANT options whose expiry falls inside the competition window.
Competition PnL does not include:
- Unrealized gains or losses, or marks on open positions.
- Deposits or withdrawals.
Eligibility
To be eligible for a prize, a wallet must:
- Finish the competition with positive competition PnL.
- Generate at least $1,000 in qualifying ANT options volume.
- Trade during the official competition window.
Market makers are excluded. Wash trading, self-trading and any other manipulative activity are not allowed. Wallets found engaging in them are disqualified. Only eligible traders receive prizes.
