Tournaments, XP & Referral Revenue
Real USDT prize pools, lifetime referral cuts up to 35%, and a 5-tier XP ladder. Fully restored and live.
The three earnings tracks
Tournaments are back online with the full prize / XP / referral stack wired end-to-end. Smartbull operators earn from three stackable sources:
1. Tournament prizes — weekly USDT leaderboards segmented by capital tier. #1 takes $1,000 USDT + Champion NFT + 1 month Alpha; #2-3 split $500 USDT each + Pro upgrade; #4-10 get $100 USDT + 2,000 XP + fee discount voucher; top-25% get a free month of their current tier. 2. Referral revenue — lifetime 20–35% commission on every paid subscription your referrals make, paid monthly in USDT or platform credits. 3. XP unlocks — every paid action feeds one progression ladder. Tier-ups are permanent and unlock fee discounts, credits, exclusive tournaments, and revenue-share negotiations at Legend.
Public landing page: `/tournaments`. Live tournament dashboard with the current leaderboard + your rank: `/tournaments/play` (logged-in, recomputed by cron tournament-leaderboard-recompute).
