During the competition period, each strategy account must maintain an initial position value of no less than five hundred thousand United States Dollars (US$500,000).
-All submitted strategies must be bona fide market-driven trading strategies consistent with the stated risk-return profile of the relevant track and reflect genuine trading behavior.
-Participants are strictly prohibited from engaging in any non-market-based activities to artificially generate profits or smooth net asset value, including but not limited to off-exchange agreements, self-trading via related accounts, wash trading, market manipulation, or any other abusive practices. Bybit may, at its sole discretion, disqualify any participant, cancel results, and/or adjust rankings where such conduct is suspected or identified.

Failure to comply may result in suspension or disqualification.
-Interest-free borrowing is subject to Bybit's risk control requirements and internal approval processes. Any interest-free benefit applies only to the extent expressly granted under this campaign and does not modify the underlying loan agreement.
