Bybit The record-breaking trading competition is back, bringing a brand-new "Global Assets" and AI arena, early bird team rewards, as well as a competition schedule that lasts for five weeks until December 2, 2026.
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, October 30, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- This "new financial platform" announced today that it has opened registrations for its global flagship trading competition, the "World Trading Championship" ( WSOT ) 2026. Starting from 10:00 a.m. today ( UTC ), qualified traders around the world can register, form teams, or join existing teams, and begin the "preheating tasks." By 10:00 a.m. on December 2, 2026 ( UTC ), the prize pool for the competition could reach up to 10 million USDT .

Under this year's theme of "Trading Converges Here" ( The World Trades Here ), WSOT has evolved from an encrypted trading competition to a multi-asset trading championship. In addition to team competitions and individual contests, two new arenas have been added this year: the Global Assets Arena, where traders can compete in stocks, gold, crude oil, and indices; and the AI Profit and Loss Duel, where strategies will be executed through Bybit AI.

WSOT What new changes are there in 2026?
Bybit indicates that WSOT in 2026 reflects its development towards a global multi-asset platform. Cryptocurrencies, stocks, and commodities can now be traded through a single account and a single event, and AI has also been integrated into the entire experience from registration to final ranking.
Global Asset Contest: Two rankings based on trading volume include traditional markets in WSOT. The spot ranking covers cryptocurrency and stock spot trading (where applicable); the TradFi perpetual ranking includes perpetual contracts for stocks, gold, crude oil, and indices.
AI Contest: A new ranking list will be established based on profit and loss (P&L) to rank traders who use the Bybit AI sub-account or the general AI sub-account. Bybit AI will also appear on the WSOT page as a competition assistant, explaining the rules and tasks, and tracking the team and individual rankings in real time.
Preheating Tasks: Preheating tasks span the entire event period and cover five different arenas: New Users & Invitations, Spot Market, Derivatives, TradFi, and Bybit AI. Upon completing each task, one arena is unlocked, and rewards are available for that arena.
Phased Key Time Schedule
As the total trading volume of all participants increases, the prize pool will be gradually unlocked. In team battles, the team leader will receive 20% of the rewards for each team, the top 10 members will share 20% of the rewards together, and all eligible members will share the remaining 60%. In individual battles, traders will be divided into three categories: lightweight, medium, and heavyweight.
How to Participate
There is no minimum capital requirement for registration. To qualify for the P&L and P&L% rankings, traders must hold at least 100 USDT in their unified trading account for a period of 5 minutes. Each trader can use 1 main account and up to 6 sub-accounts to compete, including AI sub-accounts. Traders can participate in both team competitions and individual competitions.
