Create a trading competition

Anyone can run a trading competition for a pool on BNB Smart Chain at apps.cadinu.io/trading-competition/create. Traders join for free by trading in that pool. The rules, fees and contracts are on Trading Competitions.

Before you start

Section titled “Before you start”
  • The prize in your wallet: any BEP-20 token except tokens with a transfer tax.
  • The creation fee: 0.05 BNB or 100,000,000 CBON, read from the contract. With a referral link it is 0.04 BNB or 80,000,000 CBON (20% off). A promo code can lower it further.
  • BNB for gas.
The competitions page: Trade to Win, Create competition, and the creation fee of 0.1 BNB or 200M CBON

Steps

Section titled “Steps”

  1. Type

    Section titled “Type”

    Open Create and choose what traders compete on: Trading activity (volume), buys plus sells of the project token, or Buy & hold, tokens bought during the competition times the time held until the end. The summary on the right shows the fee you will pay.

    Step 1 of creating a competition: Trading activity or Buy & hold, with the summary and the creation fee

  2. Pool

    Section titled “Pool”

    Paste a token address, type a symbol (for example CADINU) or a V3 position number, or enter the pool address yourself. Pools on CADINUdex, PancakeSwap, Uniswap and two more exchanges are supported (V2 and V3 where they exist).

    Step 2: which pool, with the supported exchanges

  3. Prize

    Section titled “Prize”

    Pick the prize token and amount and the number of winners (up to 50). The top winners split the prize in proportion to their score.

  4. Schedule and fee

    Section titled “Schedule and fee”

    Set the start (in your local time) and the duration in days. Choose to pay the fee in BNB or CBON, add a referral address or a promo code if you have one, connect your wallet and confirm. Your wallet asks to approve the prize token (and CBON when you pay the fee in CBON), then to create the competition.

After it is created, a success screen offers a share menu (X, Telegram, WhatsApp, Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit, copy link, PNG) with your referral built in, and Create another.

What happens next

Section titled “What happens next”
  • The competition page shows a live leaderboard, a chart, a Trade in this competition panel and the rules. Each trader signs a free message once before the first trade.
  • At the end, validators sign the final result and winners claim on chain. If no result is published within 3 days, you can take the prize back.

Referral earnings

Section titled “Referral earnings”

When someone creates a competition through your referral link, you earn a share of the creation fee they actually paid, in the currency they paid in. The share rises with your qualifying referrals:

Qualifying referrals Your share of the fee paid On a 0.04 BNB fee
Tier 1: 1st to 10th 30% 0.012 BNB
Tier 2: 11th to 100th 40% 0.016 BNB
Tier 3: 101st to 500th 50% 0.02 BNB
Tier 4: 501st and later 60% 0.024 BNB

Example. A friend creates a competition through your link and pays the referral price of 0.04 BNB. It is your first qualifying referral, so tier 1 applies: 0.04 BNB × 30% = 0.012 BNB for you. Paid in CBON, the same tier gives 24,000,000 CBON.

A referral qualifies when its prize token is on the supported list with a minimum prize set and the prize meets that minimum. Your share is credited on chain in the creation transaction; withdraw it from the Referrals card on your profile. CADINU can change the rates for later creations, never above 60%. All the rules: Referral earnings.
