How Sovryn Perpetual Futures Contracts work

Competition terms

  • Competition start date is Tuesday 12th July and end date is Tuesday 19th July.

  • The instrument traded is BTC/USD collateralized in BTC.

  • The competition takes place on BNB Smartchain mainnet. Sovryn provides a user interface to bridge BTC from RSK to BNB Smartchain and back:

    • RSK to BSC: (or vice versa): click "RSK transfer" button

    • BTC to BSC: click "BTC Deposit" button

    • BSC to BTC: click "BTC withdraw" button

    • Gas fees on BNB Smartchain are paid in BNB tokens. However, with Sovryn Perpetual Futures, gas fees can be paid in BTC. Gas fees have no influence on the competition ranking.

  • The competition ranking is determined in terms of realized, relative P&L. 

    • Specifically, the P&L is calculated as follows

    • X := Cumulative sum of transfer amount from perp to trader address

    • Y := Running max of -X

    • With every transfer T to or from the trader’s margin account, we update X <- X + T and Y <- max(Y, -X)

    • %PnL = X / Y 

    • If the there is an open position, the PnL above is approximated via %PnL (approximated) = (X + margin balance) / Y

    • Because of the way the P&L is calculated, it is advisable to close open positions before the competition ends

    • Measuring relative P&L allows wallets with smaller funds to be able to compete with larger wallets.

    • At the end of the competition, the relevant trader ranking is the one displayed in the leaderboard

  • The total prize money is 0.5 BTC plus a share of the profit/loss that the AMM incurs during the time of competition. The prize money will be paid to the competitor’s wallet in RBTC a few days after the competition ends.

  • The total prize money is paid to the top 3 traders and distributed in relation to their P&L. For example, if the top 3 traders achieved a P&L of 200%, 100%, 15%, the best trader receives 0.31 BTC (200/(200+100+15) * 0.5 BTC).
