XAUT Trading Competition
Details
Derive is running the XAUT Trading Competition through August 2026, rewarding the traders who post the best returns on Tether Gold (XAUT) options.
Trade XAUT options on Derive between 1 and 31 August 2026. To qualify, a trade must pay or receive at least $100 in option premium. Close the position or let it settle, then generate and share your official Derive PNL card.
Ranking is by realized PNL percentage. Only closed or settled positions count toward the leaderboard; open positions and unrealized gains are not eligible.
The top three traders each win an 8-gram pure gold Derive plate plus $500 in DRV.
Genuine market activity only. Wash trading, self-trading, coordinated activity, ranking manipulation, and altered PNL cards are prohibited, and Derive verifies every trade against its records and onchain data.
