After more than 40 days of intense competition, the second phase of the Huobi HTX annual flagship event, the Peak Competition, has officially concluded. This Web3 trading feast, spanning spot and contract trading and integrating competition with social interaction, delivered an impressive performance with a luxurious prize pool of $1.5 million and highly disruptive innovations in the competition format.

Official data revealed that the second phase of the Peak Competition attracted nearly 65,000 participants through a progressive structure of point competitions, challenge matches, and team contests, with a total trading volume exceeding 17.5 billion USDT. In a market characterized by significant fluctuations in mainstream assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum in the first quarter of this year, Huobi HTX successfully built a top-tier competitive stage for global investors that combines wealth effects with social enjoyment.

Team Competition Shines: Breaking Norms with "AI Trading" and "Unlimited Team Formation"

As the grand finale and the biggest highlight of this event, the comprehensive upgrade of the "Team Competition" ignited user participation enthusiasm.

Statistics show that the team competition attracted 26,000 global users to form nearly 500 teams with diverse styles. The unprecedented success of this team competition is attributed to three disruptive innovations in products and competition formats by Huobi HTX:

"AI Team Leader" breaks the mold, human-machine collaboration achieves success: For the first time, the competition introduced an AI trading model, and the first AI team leader, "DeepMind Trader," reached its 100-member limit within just three days of launch. With algorithmic advantages and team cohesion, this AI team surged to 15th place in the trading volume leaderboard during the intense contract team trading competition.

A member of the DeepMind Trader team shared in the community, "Before, I followed trading experts; now I follow AI. AI is not emotional; it understands 'ironclad stop-loss' better than humans." This innovation not only validates the commercial viability of AI in trading but also opens up imaginative possibilities for future "human-machine collaborative" trading ecosystems.

Breaking time barriers, "trade anytime" during the competition period: Abandoning the rigid rule of "registration ends immediately," this team competition allows users to create or join teams at any time during the trading period. This design directly led to a participation scale of 25,900, forming 493 teams with diverse styles.

Triple reward bonuses + one-click copy trading, building a healthy "old leads new" ecosystem: This team competition has comprehensively upgraded the selection and incentive system. The event not only added dual leaderboards for "profit amount" and "profit rate" but also introduced a set of welfare "combination punches": on one hand, team leaders can enjoy dual bonuses of "team profit sharing + exclusive team leader bonuses," greatly stimulating the enthusiasm of experts to lead teams; on the other hand, team members can easily keep up with top traders through the "one-click copy trading" feature. This mechanism successfully constructed a healthy trading ecosystem of "old leads new, strong leads weak."

Battle of the Leaderboards: Moments of Upsets, Clutch Plays, and Legendary Achievements

The point competition, aimed at universal participation, kicked off the second phase of the Peak Competition with a bang. Huobi HTX invested $400,000 worth of physical gold to ignite market trading enthusiasm with highly sincere inclusive benefits.

The subsequent individual challenge competition pushed the competitive atmosphere to a boiling point: this segment attracted nearly 30,000 hardcore players to compete, with a total trading volume strongly exceeding 4.6 billion USDT. Ultimately, the top trader, who dominated both the spot and contract trading volume leaderboards, took home a reward of up to 35,000 USDT.

During the weeks-long team competition, numerous "dark horses" and "legendary operations" emerged in both the spot and contract arenas.

In the spot team competition, "regional warfare" and "strategy is king" became the main themes. Team formation was concentrated in the CIS and Chinese-speaking regions, forming natural regional team camps. In the sprint phase, the leaderboard saw multiple reshuffles, with several dark horse teams breaking into the top rankings in the final stages.

Among them, the "Trading Lighthouse" team, initiated by loyal fans of Sun Yuchen, secured the top spot with over 100 million USDT in spot trading volume, thanks to their "main force leading the rhythm + team following" execution. The "No Profit, No Downline" team made a strong push in the middle of the competition, completing a comeback with several rounds of precise wave captures to claim the profit amount championship. Meanwhile, the small-scale team "Casual Buy Can Win" achieved the dark horse crown with an astonishing profit rate of 1092%.

The competition in the contract arena was fierce, with the leaderboard experiencing several extreme reversals in the final 48 hours.

Trading Volume Leaderboard: The "Smart One" team, led by a captain with a patient "trend trading" and "hands-off management" philosophy, secured the top trading volume with an overwhelming advantage; however, the battle for second place between "Hundred Times Help" and "Golden Bull" was exceptionally intense, with both teams alternating leads five times in the last three days, ultimately "Hundred Times Help" narrowly won by less than 8 million USDT.

Profit Amount Leaderboard: The battle for the top spot between "All In Retirement Home" and "FOMO Brigade" lasted throughout the competition. In the end, the "All In Retirement Home" team, thanks to their captain's precise dual opening operations during the macro data release, secured victory in the "meat grinder" of competition.

Profit Rate Leaderboard: The legendary grassroots "Red Horse Brother" performed the most incredible miracle of this event. With an acute sense of extreme volatility in small coins and decisive actions, the daily profit rate skyrocketed over 2000%, ultimately achieving an astonishing +6261.00% to become a legend.

From Competition to Ecosystem, Huobi HTX's Long-term Vision

Since its inaugural launch, the Huobi HTX Peak Competition has become one of the platform's signature events.

From the first phase's trading volume of 14 billion USDT and a reward of 1 million USDT to the second phase's trading volume of 17.5 billion USDT and a prize pool of 1.5 million USDT; from the stunning debut of the AI team leader to the iterative upgrade of the one-click copy trading feature and multidimensional competitive comparisons… Huobi HTX's exponential growth validates the platform's deep expertise in product innovation and user operations. Whether steady spot investors or aggressive contract traders, everyone can find their place in this "earn while you fight" celebration.

In the future, Huobi HTX will continue to optimize the competition mechanism, creating more high-quality trading competition stages for global users, allowing every user to become a co-builder and beneficiary of the crypto ecosystem.
