๐Ÿ‘ฅ Who can participate?

Fund Managers and solo traders can spin up an onchain fund on Lore and join the competition:

Solo

Solo traders can join the competition. Each trader must:

  • Sign in with Email

  • Deposit a minimum of $100

Squad

Fund Managers can spin up an onchain fund on Lore and join the competition. Each fund must:

  • Have at least 3+ members

  • Close a Funding Round with a minimum of $500 (3 SOL)

๐Ÿ“… When does it start?

  • The current formation period has already started. The competition and performance will be tracked from June 3rd to June 10th. Prize pools are distributed weekly to respective Lore Fund Wallet addresses.

  • Then the weekly competition starts again โ€” so Round 2 starts June 11th.

  • Just create a Fund, connect your wallets, and start trading. Youโ€™ll be automatically entered into the Weekly Leaderboard.

๐Ÿ’ธ What's the prize pool?

  • $2,000 USDC weekly + 50% of Lore Platform Fees & ongoing points per week.

  • Distributed to the top three funds on the leaderboard.

  • Winners also earn Lore Points, which stack for future benefits

๐Ÿ“Š How is performance tracked?

  • PnL + Actions Taken On Lore

  • Fund performance is calculated based on weekly PnL across eligible tokens. A leaderboard that displays weekly rankings, making it easy to follow top traders.

๐Ÿ“ˆ What tokens can I trade?

Trade Anything. No Restrictions

  • Weโ€™ve removed limits on volume or market cap. Youโ€™re free to trade any token across any trenches.

  • Thereโ€™s no whitelist โ€” from majors to microcaps, itโ€™s all on the table. Full flexibility for the traders.

    However, nefarious behaviour is not tolerated.

    Our system and teams monitor for manipulation, wash trading, or sybil tactics. Break the rules, and youโ€™re out โ€” no warnings.

๐Ÿ“‰ What tokens are excluded from PnL calculations?

Illiquid or spam tokens, rugged assets, and manually flagged tokens are excluded.

๐Ÿšซ What's not allowed?

Wash Trading. Fair Hold. Manipulation

  • To ensure a fair competition:

    • No wash trading โ€“ repeated buy/sell loops will get you disqualified

    • 1-hour minimum holding per trade

    • No chart manipulation โ€“ suspicious trading activity is actively monitored

โœ… How can I verify that my performance was calculated correctly?

You can review your round performance in your portfolio page. If something looks off, reach out to us via support.

๐Ÿค” Why did I show up on the leaderboard but not win a prize?

You likely didnโ€™t meet the minimum qualification criteria. Check the qualification rules above.

๐Ÿ’ก How do I qualify for rewards?

Make sure you meet the minimum requirements mentioned above

๐ŸŒ Why isn't EVM included yet in the PnL?

We're working on EVM integration. For now, only the Lore Wallet and connected Solana wallets are considered.

๐Ÿ” How does Lore prevent copy trading or sniping?

Private Addresses. Monitoring Systems.

  • Fund addresses are private and visible only to fund members

  • Monitoring systems block scraping and manipulation

  • Only post-trade data is exposed, not live trading activity

๐Ÿšจ What happens if someone breaks the rules?

  • Immediate disqualification for market manipulation, wash trading, or scraping

  • Community reports with onchain evidence are welcome and reviewed seriously.
