BitMEX has launched its Grand Ascent campaign, offering traders a share of a 100,000 USDT prize pool through a series of trading missions.

The campaign runs from January 26 to February 17, 2026, and is open to new and existing users who participate at any point during the promotional period.

New users who complete full KYC verification during the campaign can earn up to $5,050 in new trader quest rewards, according to BitMEX.

Existing users can win up to $800 in trading credits by reaching target volumes across spot, derivatives or copy trading products.

All users are also eligible to earn up to 50 USDT by sharing their referral codes during the campaign.

“Since its founding, no cryptocurrency has been lost through intrusion or hacking,”

BitMEX said, highlighting its security record and commitment to protecting user funds.

BitMEX added that it continues to publish on-chain proof of reserves and liabilities data twice weekly as part of its transparency efforts for professional crypto traders.
