Example 1: An HTX Affiliate can join both the Spot and Futures competitions. If they generate 5,000 USDT in net fees from spot trades and another 5,000 USDT from futures trades, they will receive a total reward of 1,000 USDT. The reward will be distributed as 800 USDT and 200 USDT worth of $HTX.
Example 2: An HTX Affiliate generates 2,000 USDT in fees from trading the BTCUSDT futures symbol and 1,000 USDT in fees from trading the PAXGUSDT futures symbol. Since PAXGUSDT fees are calculated with a 1.2× multiplier, the total calculated fees amount to 3,200 USDT (2,000 + 1,000 × 1.2 = 3,200 USDT). Based on this, the affiliate will receive a total reward of 300 USDT (240 USDT + 60 USDT in $HTX).
III. Prime Level Tiered Reward Mechanism
To ensure the long-term sustainability of the HTX Affiliate Team Contest and maintain a balanced reward structure across different user levels, this event introduces a Prime Level Tiered Reward Mechanism.
Scope of Application: Applies to invited users who sign up or link referral relationships with HTX Affiliates on or after May 1, 2026. Users who established a referral relationship before this date will generally follow the original rules.
Trigger Condition: If invited users with Prime 6 or above contribute ≥50% of total trading fees, the reward portion from these users will follow tiered ratios below. Otherwise, original rules apply.
| Prime Level |
Reward Distribution Ratio |
| Prime 8 |
20% |
| Prime 7 |
40% |
| Prime 6 |
70% |
| Below Prime 6 |
100% |
Calculation Method
1. Calculate the HTX Affiliate's original reward based on the standard event rules.
2. Split the reward based on the fee contribution percentage of each invited user.
3. Apply tiered ratios to Prime 6+ users if the Prime Level Tiered Reward Mechanism is triggered.
4. Users below Prime 6 remain at 100% standard distribution.
Note: Once the trigger conditions are met, tiered calculations will apply only to the reward portion generated by users with Prime 6 and above, and will not affect rewards generated by users below Prime 6.
Example:
Assume that during the current futures competition, invited users who newly registered or newly established a referral relationship with an HTX Affiliate named Tom after May 1, 2026 generated a total of 30,000 USDT in net futures trading fees. Under the original event rules, this would correspond to a total reward of 3,000 USDT.
Among them:
- User A is Prime 8 and contributed 10,000 USDT in net trading fees;
- User B is Prime 6 and contributed 5,000 USDT in net trading fees;
- Other users below Prime 6 contributed 15,000 USDT in net trading fees.
The contribution ratio from Prime 6 and above users is: (10,000 + 5,000) / 30,000 = 50%. Since the ratio reaches 50%, the Prime Level Tiered Reward Mechanism is triggered.
Therefore:
- User A's original reward is calculated as: 3,000 × (10,000 / 30,000) = 1,000 USDT. However, based on the Prime 8 ratio of 20%, User A's final reward is 200 USDT.
- User B's original reward is calculated as: 3,000 × (5,000 / 30,000) = 500 USDT. However, based on the Prime 6 ratio of 70%, User B's final reward is 350 USDT.
- The reward portion generated by users below Prime 6 is calculated as: 3,000 × (15,000 / 30,000) = 1,500 USDT. This portion will be distributed at 100% and allocated among the respective users based on their individual contributions.
Final reward for HTX Affiliate Tom: 200 + 350 + 1,500 = 2,050 USDT.
IV. Special Notes
1. Exclusion of Overlapping Activities: Trading fees generated by the participating HTX Affiliate, their invitees, and their lower-tier partners through other concurrent platform events will not be included in the final fee calculation for this event. For example, data from the Spot Trading Carnival, the HTX Trading Championship (including the Individual Challenge and Team Battles), and Lucky Draw events will be excluded.
2. Leaderboard Updates: The leaderboard is updated daily at 10:00 (UTC+8). Data is compiled based on statistics as of 24:00 (UTC+8) on the previous day.

2. Each HTX Affiliate may share the prize pool only once and will receive rewards based on the highest tier reached by their net trading fees. Rewards earned from the Spot and Futures competitions are stackable.
3. Net spot and futures trading fees generated will be taken into calculation from the start of the event.
4. Net spot trading fee is defined as the actual spot trading fees, excluding fees from trades with zero trading fees, negative fee rates, or trading fee rebate vouchers.

7. $HTX rewards will be calculated based on the $HTX price on June 1, 2026.
8. Data from this event cannot be combined with other events. The platform reserves the right to exclude duplicate data and distribute rewards based solely on the highest eligible tier.
9. Spot trading leaderboards are currently unavailable. Please contact your dedicated BD if you require data updates. All final rankings are subject to official platform data.
10. Registration is required separately for the Spot and Futures competitions, but rewards from both are stackable.
