TL;DR

  • Total rewards pool: $80,000
  • Win up to: $18,200
  • Round 1 WL spots: 420
  • Total duration: 6 weeks
  • Wen: March 1st

About

Your objective is simple… generate the highest PnL ($) using Smilee.

Compete as a solo chad, or form/join a team to further strategize. A team needs to have a minimum of 10 people, and a maximum of 25.

Each week, you/your team need to decide how to best leverage our first two DVPs:

Real Yield

Strategy: Short Gamma (volatility), Long Delta (profit if token goes up).

Earn yield for providing DEX-like liquidity. This is the ideal strategy for low volatility market conditions.

Impermanent Gain

Strategy: Long gamma (volatility), Delta Neutral (doesn’t matter if token goes up or down as long is it moves a lot).

Turn Impermanent Loss into Impermanent Gain with up to 500x leverage.

You can think of Real Yield like standard LP for a given pair, and Impermanent Gain as the vehicle to profit on a given pair’s volatility.

Since Impermanent Gain functions on 1-week maturity, you/your team will have to decide how to best manage your capital every week.

You can learn more about our DVPs here.

We partnered with some of your favorite protocols in the Arbitrum ecosystem to include their tokens in our trading pairs and enter their official trading Teams:

  • $🟦🟦🟦🟦/$USDC
  • $🟦🟦🟦/$USDC
  • $🟦🟦🟦/$USDC
  • $🟦🟦🟦🟦/$USDC
  • $🟦🟦🟦/$USDC

Be on the lookout in their communities for WL spots. 👀

Competition Structure

There will be two rounds in the competition, and participants in Round 1 will have a major advantage for Round 2:

  • Round 1 (4 weeks): 420 WL spots
  • Round 2 (2 weeks): 🟦🟦🟦 WL spots

You’ll be given an equal amount of testnet tokens at the start of Round 1, and your ending balance carries over to Round 2 giving you an advantage over the newcomers.

Winners are crowned at the end of Round 2.

Rewards

There’s two reward brackets:

1. Individual Performance.

2. Team Performance.

Forming/joining a team doesn’t give up your eligibility for the “Individual Rewards” bracket.

Winners will be judged by:

  • Individual: Overall PnL ($)
  • Team: Average PnL ($) of top 3 traders.

The majority of the rewards are given in our forthcoming token ($SMILEE) valued at TGE. 🤌
