Global crypto exchange Bitrue has announced the launch of its seasonal Halloween Trading Frenzy campaign for futures traders, which will run from October 28 to November 12, 2026 (UTC).
As part of the initiative, a total prize pool of $33,333 is provided, along with a daily $1,000 airdrop and a 100 USDT position voucher for new users who meet the campaign conditions. The campaign spans 16 days and covers both existing futures traders and those opening an account on the platform for the first time.
Three reward mechanics
Daily $1,000 airdrop. For futures trades, participants receive tickets, and their number directly determines the share in the daily $1,000 prize, which is distributed separately each day of the campaign. Tickets are tied specifically to trading activity, not to account size — the exact calculation methodology, including the trading volume required to earn one ticket, is fixed in the campaign rules. Since the airdrop is accrued on a daily basis, participants can join during the periods that suit their own trading schedule.
$33,333 prize pool. The campaign features a leaderboard where participants are ranked by futures trading activity during the campaign period. The higher the position, the larger the share of the prize pool. Final places are determined by activity recorded before the campaign ends on November 12, 2026 (UTC), and the ranking criteria and reward size for each tier are set out in the rules.
100 USDT voucher for new users. To receive the position voucher, one must register a new account during the campaign period, execute futures trades totaling at least 100 USDT, and submit the reward claim form. The voucher is a promotional credit that can be used to open a futures position; its validity period, available trading pairs, and other conditions are described in the rules.
Key parameters
Campaign period — October 28 to November 12, 2026 (UTC). Product — futures trading on Bitrue. Daily airdrop — $1,000 per day via tickets. Leaderboard prize pool — $33,333 based on ranking.

Terms of participation
Participation is governed by Bitrue's general terms of use and the separate rules published on the campaign page. Access to futures trading and promotional campaigns depends on local legislation in each participant's jurisdiction: users from regions where futures trading or promotional rewards are restricted cannot participate. Account verification may be required before rewards are paid out. The platform reserves the right to review activity and disqualify accounts found to be engaged in anomalous or manipulative trading behavior, and campaign rules may change during the campaign with changes published on the official page.
Bitrue is a global crypto exchange founded in 2018, with an audience of more than 40 million people worldwide. The platform was the first to add XRP as a base currency in trading pairs and still offers one of the widest sets of XRP pairs among global exchanges. In addition, the exchange is developing a line of tokenized real-world assets, staking products, Launchpool offerings, and a free AI-based trading bot — Bitrue AI.
Cryptalist analysis: The campaign format reflects growing competition among exchanges for futures liquidity through gamified seasonal promotions with relatively small but frequent payouts. The structure with daily distribution and a separate voucher for newcomers incentivizes trading turnover rather than capital inflow, which increases the risks of manipulative activity — hence the platform's emphasis on disqualifying anomalous accounts. For the market, this is a signal that exchanges' marketing budgets are shifting toward retaining retail futures traders amid pressure on commission revenue.
