What is ByPick? Free picks, real rewards

Event markets are reshaping how people engage with global headlines, from crypto milestones and central-bank decisions to championship matches and esports showdowns. Bybit's ByPick brings that experience to every Bybit user for free: no wallet setup, no gas fees, and no real-money stake required. Pick the outcomes you believe in, climb the seasonal leaderboard, and compete for real USDT rewards.

Key takeaways:

• ByPick is Bybit's free-to-play global event market center, covering crypto, sports, esports, and finance events inside the Bybit App. You never risk real money: every user starts with 200 free CP and gets a daily refill.

• A streak-and-Battle-Pass system turns consistent play into escalating bonus points, milestone share cards, and access to bigger prize pools.

• Traders who complete the Trading Track unlock the Trading Prize Pool, where the same leaderboard rank pays 10–40× more USDT in Season Ranking Rewards.

What is ByPick?

ByPick is an always-on feature inside the Bybit App where you pick the outcomes of real-world events and earn points for every correct call. Those points, called BCP (ByPick Challenge Points), determine your position on the seasonal leaderboard. At the end of each four-week season, top-ranked participants share a USDT prize pool as a Season Ranking Reward.

Think of it as a gamified engagement layer on top of the news cycle. Whether Bitcoin is testing a new all-time high, a major central bank is about to announce rate decisions, or your favorite esports team is heading into playoffs, ByPick lets you put your knowledge to the test, completely free.

How ByPick differs from Polymarket

If you have followed event markets, you may know platforms like Polymarket. ByPick covers many of the same global events but removes the barriers that keep most retail users away:

The core difference: ByPick is free entry with real rewards. You never stake your own funds, and the USDT you earn is based on your seasonal ranking, not on individual event outcomes.

Getting started

1. Access ByPick

Open the Bybit App and look for the ByX scroll to the second screen on the homepage page. Tap in and you are ready to go. No additional sign-up or KYC is needed beyond your existing Bybit account.

2. Collect your 200 CP starter

The moment you enter ByPick, you receive 200 CP for free. That is enough to start making picks across multiple events right away.

3. Browse and pick events

Events are organized across categories: crypto, sports, esports, and more. Each event presents a simple question (for example, "Will BTC close above $150,000 this week?") with two or more possible outcomes. Tap the outcome you believe in, allocate some CP, and confirm your pick.

4. Wait for resolution

Events resolve within a set timeframe, typically 24 to 72 hours depending on the event type. Once the outcome is confirmed, correct picks earn CP based on the market's pricing at the time you entered.

1. Earn Points: keep your CP flowing

Tap the Earn Points section on the ByPick home page to find easy ways to top up your balance every day:

• Daily Check-in: Log in and tap "Check In" each day to collect +10 CP. Consistent check-ins compound over a four-week season and are one of the easiest ways to climb the leaderboard.

• Points Station: Had a rough stretch? When your balance falls below 200 CP, you can claim a free refill once per day, so you never truly run out.

• Task Center: complete tasks, earn bonus CP

The Task Center is your mission hub with two tracks you can progress through simultaneously:

Activity Task: Unlock milestones through everyday engagement: reaching prediction streaks, checking in daily, claiming from the Points Station, and making picks. Completing the Activity Track qualifies you for the Standard Prize Pool at season's end.

Trading Track: Earn extra CP by completing trading tasks on Bybit. Hit volume milestones across spot and futures to unlock rewards:

• Trade ≥ $1,000 on Spot → +500 CP

• Trade ≥ $3,000 on Futures → +500 CP (repeatable with no limit)

• Trading Milestones: Progress through cumulative volume tiers (2,000 → 10,000 → 20,000 → 50,000) for additional rewards

Finishing the Trading Track grants access to the Grand Prize Pool, where the same leaderboard rank pays 10–40× more USDT than the Standard Prize Pool.

The streak system: turn consistency into bonus points

Getting one pick right is good. Getting several right in a row is where ByPick really rewards you. The streak system adds escalating bonus CP on top of every consecutive correct pick:

Hit milestones at 5, 10, and 20 consecutive correct picks, and ByPick generates a share card you can post to social media. It is a fun way to show off your track record and invite friends.

Streak shields

Worried about losing a long streak to one bad call? Shields protect you. When you hold a Shield, a single incorrect pick will not break your streak because the Shield absorbs it. Shields are earned through Trading Track tasks, giving active traders an extra edge in the leaderboard race.

Battle Pass: two tracks, two prize pools

ByPick features a Battle Pass with two parallel progression tracks, each with five milestones:

Activity Track (free play)

Unlocked through everyday engagement: making picks, maintaining streaks, and completing daily check-ins. Finishing the Activity Track qualifies you for the regular prize pool at season's end.

Trading Track (trade to level up)

Unlocked by completing trading tasks on Bybit (spot, derivatives, or other eligible products). The Trading Track is ByPick's most powerful upgrade because it grants access to the Trading Prize Pool, where the same leaderboard rank pays 10–40× more USDT than the regular pool.

For users who already trade on Bybit, the Trading Track is essentially an extra reward layered on top of activity you are already doing.

Daily habits that keep you competitive

Daily check-in

Log in each day to collect bonus CP. Consistent check-ins compound over a four-week season and are one of the easiest ways to keep climbing the leaderboard.

Top-up station

Had a rough stretch? The Top-up Station refills your balance back to 200 CP every day. This means you can never truly run out. Even after a string of incorrect picks, you will always have enough CP to stay in the game through the end of the season.

First-week strategy

Season 1 runs from September 28 to October 31, 2026. Users can also finish trading tasks to earn more points to play with. Here is a simple playbook for your first week:

1. Diversify your picks. Spread across crypto, sports, and finance events rather than going all-in on one category. Different categories resolve on different timelines, keeping your CP flowing.

2. Protect early streaks. Even a modest 2–4 win streak starts generating +20 bonus CP per correct pick. Prioritize consistency over high-risk longshot calls in the first few days.

3. Activate the Trading Track early. If you already trade on Bybit, start checking off Trading Track milestones in Week 1. The sooner you unlock the Trading Prize Pool, the more of the season you spend earning at the higher multiplier.

4. Use the Top-up Station. If a day goes badly, come back the next day, collect your refill, and keep playing. The leaderboard rewards persistence.

How Season Ranking Rewards work

At the close of each four-week season, final leaderboard positions are calculated and USDT is distributed as a Season Ranking Reward. Key points:

• Rewards are based on your leaderboard rank, not on individual event outcomes.

• Two separate pools exist: the Standard Prize Pool (Activity Track participants) and the Grand Prize Pool (Trading Track participants), with the Grand Prize Pool paying 10–40× more at equivalent ranks.

• Rewards are credited directly to your Bybit account in USDT.

This structure means every correct pick, every streak bonus, and every daily check-in across the entire season contributes to your final standing and your share of the prize pool.

The bottom line

ByPick turns your knowledge of global events into a free, engaging challenge with real USDT rewards at the end of every season. There is no deposit to make, no wallet to connect, and no gas to pay. Sign up, collect your 200 CP, start picking across crypto, sports, esports, and finance events, and build your streak toward the Season Ranking Reward.

For those who trade on Bybit, the Trading Track multiplies the payoff, making ByPick one of the simplest ways to earn extra rewards on top of your regular activity.
