BitMEX has launched its “Grand Ascent” trading campaign, giving participants a chance to share a 100,000 USDT prize pool by completing designated tasks. The event runs from 12:00 UTC on January 26, 2026, to 11:59 UTC on February 17, 2026, and users can register at any point during the campaign window.
Separate reward tracks for new, existing, and referral users
The campaign is structured around three reward categories. For new users, those who complete identity verification (KYC) during the event and finish the new trader tasks can receive up to $5,050 in rewards. BitMEX states that full verification is required for new customers who want to join the campaign.
Existing users can qualify for up to $800 in trading bonus credit by reaching the required trading volume through spot, derivatives, or copy trading. A referral incentive is also included for all users, with participants able to earn up to 50 USDT by sharing their referral code.
Registration remains open throughout the campaign period
According to the campaign details, users do not need to join at a single fixed start time. Registration stays open during the full event period, allowing participants to enter after the campaign has already begun, as long as they complete the required steps within the stated timeline.
BitMEX highlights platform security and reserve disclosures
Alongside the campaign announcement, BitMEX described itself as a pioneer in crypto derivatives trading, citing low latency, crypto-native liquidity, and platform reliability as core features. The exchange also said it has not lost any cryptocurrency to intrusion or hacking attacks since its founding.
BitMEX added that it was among the earlier exchanges to publish on-chain proof of reserves and proof of liabilities data. The company said it continues to release those figures twice a week to show that user funds are securely stored and separately custodied.
