Competition Framework:

The Trading Competition will start on October 4th, 2022 14:00 UTC and end on December 27th, 2022 at 13:59:59 UTC.
Eligibility for the competition will be determined based on the eligibility requirements in effect that week.
In addition to the eligibility criteria for each week, the league should have at least three users. If there are less than three eligible users in a given week, the prizes will not be issued and the prize pool will be returned to the Oddz Treasury.

Rewards Framework

Total Prize Pool = 300,000 $ODDZ tokens
Prize pool each week = 25,000 $ODDZ tokens * 12 weeks = 300,000 $ODDZ tokens
Bonus Reward: Traders who buy 60+ options worth at least $4000 by the end of the leaderboard will be rewarded an extra 5000 $ODDZ tokens.
Top 7 winners will be selected every week for rewards.
The trader’s ranking will be based on the amount of option premium spent during the week.

Prize distribution every week is as follows:

1st place — 30% of the pool
2nd place — 20% of the pool
3rd to 7th places — 50% of the pool (10% each)

Note: In case only 6 users qualify for the rewards, each of the ranks 3 to 6 will all be rewarded 10% of the pool and the remaining funds will be sent to the Oddz Treasury.

Reward Distribution and Vesting

The rewards will be distributed over a six-week period. The following is the distribution:
Week 1–37.5%
