Weltrade has opened the SYNTX World Cup 2026 as part of its 20th anniversary, offering a $100,000 cash prize fund plus 100 million Welcoins with no entry fee. Participants trade $10,000 virtual accounts using SyntX volatility-based synthetic instruments available exclusively on the Weltrade terminal. Results are ranked by percentage return, calculated from the change between final and starting balances. The Qualification Round runs from 31 August to 6 September across four regions, advancing 900 traders from Africa, 600 from LATAM, 300 from Asia & Oceania and 200 from the rest of the world. A 400-trader Grand Final will determine the World Champion, who receives $20,000, while the top 50 finishers receive cash prizes and additional awards recognize categories including new traders, activity, comebacks, winning streaks and predictions. Spectators can enter a Welcoins-based Prediction Game, while introducing brokers can earn awards of up to $2,500 and a 10% commission on referred traders' winnings. Automated strategies and Expert Advisors are allowed, but latency arbitrage and other manipulation tactics can result in disqualification. Registration and the full rules are available at syntx.club.
