According to the announcement from Binance, the exchange will run a Stellar (XLM) spot trading tournament with a total prize pool of 500 BNB in token vouchers, alongside a limited-period “Sprint Reward” that provides additional rewards based on cumulative trading volume rankings. The Promotion Period is scheduled for 2026-07-02 10:00 (UTC) to 2026-07-09 10:00 (UTC). Participation is open to verified new users, regular users, and all Binance VIP users, while liquidity providers in the Binance Spot Liquidity Provider Program and Binance Brokers are not eligible. Eligible spot trading pairs for the tournament are XLM/USDT and XLM/USDC, and users must reach at least 500 USD equivalent in total trading volume across the eligible pairs during the Promotion Period to qualify for rewards.

Main Reward and Sprint Reward Details: For the Main Reward, rankings are based on cumulative trading volume during 2026-07-02 10:00 (UTC) to 2026-07-09 10:00 (UTC), with rewards ranging from 15 BNB for 1st place to equal-split pools across multiple rank bands, including an equal split of 100 BNB for all remaining eligible participants capped at 0.01 BNB per user.
