The Detail

The RulesWhat you may trade, and what disqualifies a wallet
  1. Trade whatever you like on Base — perps, coins, real-world assets, meme coins, NFTs. All of it counts.
  2. No self-dealing. Any asset whose liquidity can be manipulated is banned.
  3. No topping up. Any USDC that arrives mid-game counts towards your stake, so it buys you nothing: your return is measured against everything you had to trade with, not just your opening balance. Topping up your own wallet can still disqualify it — reviewed by hand, never automatic, because a stranger can send you money and must not be able to knock you out.
  4. Fund at least $5 USDC before the bell. We record how much USDC you have when the opening bell rings.
  5. Hold no more than 0.0002 ETH for gas at the bell. Checked once, no tolerance, no remedy afterwards — if your exchange sends more than the cap, move the excess out first.
  6. Start with USDC only. Any other token you hold at the bell is flagged and reviewed by hand, because you would start with hidden value — and that review can disqualify you. It is never automatic: your wallet is public from the moment you enrol, so junk somebody else pushes at it cannot knock you out.
  7. Base only. Because you're based.
  8. Change all your trades back to USDC before the close — only USDC is counted!!!
  9. Biggest percentage gain wins, not the biggest wallet. We want every trader to be in the game no matter how big their bag.

Road to the FinalsEvery monthly round is a qualifier for the Finals
  1. Every monthly Degen Games is a qualifier — finish in the top 10 and you're through to the Finals.
  2. When the season wraps, everyone who qualified — each month's top 10 plus the season's top Entry Pass collectors — drops in to the Finals to settle who's the biggest degen on Base.
  3. Podium finishers take home Gold, Silver and Bronze medal NFTs. A tradeable memento of the glory!
  4. The Finals pot is 1,200,000,000 BASE167 — the biggest pot of the season and the ultimate bragging rights at stake.
How to EnterTwo gates: claim a Pass, then enrol a clean wallet

Two steps to enter. First we snapshot the top 5,000 BASE167 holders, and they can then claim an Entry Pass NFT. Second, during the enrolment window, whoever holds an Entry Pass can register a competition wallet. Enrolling locks that Entry Pass so that it can't be registered to another player or sold.

  1. On snapshot day we record the top 5,000 BASE167 holders. No signup — just hold.
  2. In the top 5,000 BASE167 holders? Claim your Entry Pass NFT here, free. You only pay gas.
  3. Not in the top 5,000 BASE167 holders? Buy a Pass on the open market. Enrolled Passes are locked, so any Pass you can buy during the window is unused. Passes unlock and trade freely after the season closes.
  4. Use a clean competition wallet — any wallet will do, as long as it holds only USDC and gas ETH when the bell rings.
  5. Enrol that wallet here before enrolment closes. Enrolling locks your Pass.
  6. Fund it with at least $5 of USDC, no upper limit, plus gas ETH — max 0.0002 ETH.
  7. Wait for the opening bell.
