Now that you know what the Leaderboard Quest Challenge is, let’s break down how it actually works, how scoring works, how you earn points, how rankings are calculated, and what happens when there’s a tie.
How Leaderboard Scoring Works
Your leaderboard score is based on a combination of trading activity and trading performance.
Activity (60%) - includes trade volume, trading streaks, and market diversity
Performance (40%) - based on profits from your trades
This means your ranking reflects both how often you trade and how well you trade.
How You Earn Points
Every meaningful action you take on Bayse earns you points.
Here’s how:
Performance Points
Performance Points
You earn performance points when you make profitable trades.
You earn 5 points for every $0.5 profit
There is a daily cap on how many points you can earn
Performance points contribute 40% of your total leaderboard score.
First Trade Bonus
First Trade Bonus
Make your first-ever trade during the Quest period and get 100 points instantly. (This only applies to your first trade after the Quest begins.)
Daily Trading Volume
Daily Trading Volume
Every $10 worth of trading earns you 5 points.
For example:
$10 = 5 points
$20 = 10 points
$45 = 20 points (rounded down)
Trading Streaks
Trading Streaks
Stay consistent! Trade at least $10 daily for 7 consecutive days, and you’ll get a 2,000-point weekly bonus. Miss a day, and your streak resets.
Market Variety Bonus
Market Variety Bonus
Try out different markets. If you trade in 6 or more unique markets in a week, you earn 1,000 bonus points.
These five actions combine to determine your total points, which directly affect your ranking on the leaderboard.
Activity | Description | Points |
First Trade Completed | Place your first-ever trade after the quest starts | 100 pts |
Trade Volume | Every $10 traded earns points | 5 pts per $10 |
Daily Trade Streak | Trade at least $10 every day for 7 consecutive days | +2000 pts weekly bonus |
Market Variety | Trade in 6 or more unique markets within a week | +1000 pts weekly bonus |
Earning Limits
Earning Limits
To ensure fair competition, there are two point earning caps:
1. Daily Cap: You can earn a maximum of 10,000 trading points per day.
2. Per-Market Cap: You can earn a maximum of 3,000 points per individual market per day.
Once you hit the 10k daily cap, no additional points are awarded for the rest of that day.
Similarly, once you reach 3,000 points in a specific market, further trades in that market won't earn additional points until the next day.
Points do not carry over to the next day.
How Rankings Are Calculated
Your total points determine your leaderboard position. The higher your total, the higher you rank.
But what if two users have the same total points?
Here’s how Bayse Markets breaks the tie:
First Timestamp Rule: The user who reached that total earlier ranks higher.
Volume Rule: If both reached it at the same time, the user with the higher total trade volume takes the higher spot.
This keeps the ranking fair and rewards both speed and performance.
