Returning for its third year, Zoomex’s flagship global trading competition expands across crypto perpetuals, stock contracts, AI-powered trading, team competition, and interactive rewards
Global, 10 September 2026 — Zoomex, a global cryptocurrency trading platform focused on derivatives, has announced the launch of the Zoomex World Trading Championship 2026 (ZWTC 2026). Returning for its third year, the flagship competition features a total prize pool of up to 5,000,000 USDT, the largest announced in ZWTC history.
ZWTC 2026 introduces an expanded multi-asset competition format built around three participation areas: the Team Competition, the Solo Battle, and the Rewards Zone. Across these areas, participants can compete through crypto perpetual contracts, stock contracts, AI-powered trading challenges, team performance leaderboards, and interactive reward activities.
The expanded format reflects Zoomex’s product strategy of keeping derivatives at the core while extending access to a broader range of markets, trading tools, and participation models. Rather than focusing on a single asset class or ranking metric, ZWTC 2026 gives traders multiple ways to compete based on their preferred markets, strategies, and levels of participation.
“ZWTC 2026 represents more than an increase in prize pool size. This year, we have designed the competition around the markets, tools, and trading formats that participants are actively exploring,” said Fernando Lillo, Marketing Director at Zoomex. “Derivatives remain at the center of Zoomex, while stock contracts, AI-powered trading, and team-based competition allow us to create a more diverse championship for different types of traders.”

The Rewards Zone provides a lower-barrier participation format for users who may not wish to compete directly on a trading leaderboard.
A Multi-Asset Evolution of Zoomex’s Flagship Competition
ZWTC has developed into one of Zoomex’s core annual brand and community initiatives, connecting trading competition, product use, and global user participation.
For 2026, the championship has been expanded to better reflect how traders engage with a broader range of markets and tools. Crypto perpetual contracts remain a central part of the event, while stock contracts and AI-powered trading introduce additional ways for users to test strategies and compete.
This multi-asset direction supports Zoomex’s broader strategy of being derivatives-first while expanding the surrounding trading ecosystem. The objective is not to move away from derivatives, but to offer more underlying markets, decision-making tools, and participation formats within a derivatives-led experience.
From team collaboration and community leadership to independent trading and AI-supported competition, ZWTC 2026 is structured to accommodate different trading styles and levels of experience.
