Bull vs Bear Battles - The Ultimate Trading Showdown on Buffer Begins

Welcome traders, to the Buffer Bull 🐂vs Bear 🐻battles!

A special 5-week trading competition kicks off on Buffer starting Wednesday, 4PM UTC. Over these 35 days, participants will have the chance to win big, from a prize pot of $14,000 in PYTH!

Make sure to check the eligibility criteria below to qualify for rewards!

Start Trading:

Competition Prizes:

Two winning categories will be recognized in the daily trading competitions:

• Category A: Highest absolute payout

• Category B: Lowest absolute payout

Each week, $2,800 will be allocated, out of which $2,000 will be distributed to top 10 traders from Category A and $800 will be distributed to the top 10 traders in Category B.

In total, there are 20 winners for every trading cycle.

🚨Rewards will be allocated exclusively to participants who fulfill the eligibility criteria. Should fewer than 20 traders meet these requirements by the competition's conclusion, the undistributed portion of the reward pool will be carried over to the following week. This carryover will consequently enhance the reward share available for that week.

Distribution:

The reward distribution for both categories will follow this reward distribution:

Category A

• Rank 1 - $600

• Rank 2 - $300

• Rank 3 to  Rank 10 - $137.5

Category B
