FAQ
1. How are rankings calculated?
Participants are ranked primarily by the total number of eligible trades completed during the contest period. Tie-breakers apply where participants have the same eligible trade count.
2. Do buy and sell transactions count?
Yes. Both buy and sell transactions count toward your eligible trade total.
3. Will larger trades improve my ranking?
Not directly. Rankings are primarily based on the total number of eligible trades completed.
However, if two or more participants have the same trade count, cumulative trading volume is the first tie-breaker. Each eligible trade must still meet the minimum trade size of 100 SHM.
4. What is the minimum trade size?
Each qualifying trade must be at least 100 SHM.
5. Is there a minimum number of distinct coins I need to trade?
You must trade at least 50 distinct coins during the contest period to qualify for rewards.
If participants are tied on both eligible trade count and cumulative trading volume, the number of distinct coins traded will be used as the second tie-breaker.
6. Does meeting all the minimum requirements guarantee my rank?
No. Meeting the minimum trade count, trade size, and distinct coin requirements makes you eligible for that rank, but does not guarantee it.
Your final position depends on your eligible trade count relative to other participants. In the event of a tie, rankings are determined by:
Highest cumulative trading volume
Highest number of distinct coins traded
Earliest achievement of the qualifying trade count
