We're back with season 3 of the Mantle Trading League!

\
Mantle Rush is a trading competition where users can compete from a prize pool of $10,000 USDC while experiencing seamless, CEX-like trading with all the benefits of decentralization.

### How To Play

#### Step 1: Register

Visit the [Mantle Trading League](http://app.dem.exchange/rewards/mantle-rush) page and click the "Register" button to participate in this event.

#### Step 2: Trade and Earn Points!

Once registered, start trading perpetuals to earn points! As this is the Mantle Trading League, you'll earn more points by trading on the [MNT-PERP](https://app.dem.exchange/trade/MNT-PERP) market.

For every **1 USD of trading volume (factoring in leverage)**, you will earn:

| Markets                                                         | Points |
| --------------------------------------------------------------- | ------ |
| [MNT Perpetual Market](https://app.dem.exchange/trade/MNT-PERP) | 3      |
| Other Perpetual Markets                                         | 1      |

***Pro-tip:***&#x20;

Leverage can help you reach higher trading volumes more easily. Use 10x leverage to open a $100 position.

#### Step 3: Climb the Leaderboard!

Monitor your progress on the leaderboard. The top 20 participants will win USDC from the $10,000 prize pool!

### Prize Pool Structure

A growing prize pool tied to the volume milestones will motivate participants to push higher trading volumes. Here's the prize pool structure based on milestones:

| Volume Milestone (Demex Total Volume) | Nominal Prize Pool ($USDC) |

| **Maximum Prize Paid Out**            | **10,000 $USDC**           |
