How to win a share of $1M in rewards in Toobit’s Christmas Trading Showdown

December is usually a time for winding down. Traditional finance winds down, liquidity thins out, and desks go quiet. This market does the opposite. Activity spikes, incentives multiply, and exchanges compete to keep volume alive through the holidays.

 

Toobit has leaned into that reality with its Christmas Trading Showdown, putting up a $1 million USDT reward pool. But before chasing prizes, it’s worth understanding how rewards are earned and how to avoid becoming the volume that pays for someone else’s win.

 

What exactly is the Christmas Trading Showdown?

Toobit’s Christmas Trading Showdown leads with a simple hook: $1,000,000 in rewards, ranging from practical prizes like an iPhone 17 Pro to a trip to Spain (inclusive of flights and hotels). To some, it reads as a holiday giveaway. To anyone who scans the fine print, it’s a volume-driven incentive designed to keep activity high during a choppy stretch of the calendar.

 

The event runs from December 19, 2025, to January 12, 2026, and is split into three separate quests. High-volume participants can chase headline prizes, while casual or newer users still have ways to earn rewards without going all-in. It’s less “winner takes all” and more “choose your own level of chaos.”

 

 

An Early Bird phase kicked things off from December 19 to December 22, offering a small USDT bonus to those who registered early. It served as a soft warm-up before the main event began on December 22.

 

Quest 1: Lift the tree’s secrets

The first path is aimed squarely at volume-driven traders. The concept is simple: hit predefined futures trading volumes during specific time windows, and you unlock entries into prize draws.

 

Period 1 (Dec 24, 2025, 00:00–Dec 26, 2025, 23:59 UTC): Futures trading volume ≥ 500,000 USDT

Period 2 (Dec 31, 2025, 00:00–Jan 2, 2026, 23:59 UTC): Futures trading volume ≥ 1,000,000 USDT

Period 3 (Jan 7, 2026, 00:00–Jan 9, 2026, 23:59 UTC): Futures trading volume ≥ 2,000,000 USDT

 

The rewards are intentionally flashy. A trip to Spain with flights and hotel covered sits at the top, followed by items like the iPhone 17 Pro, DJI Mini 5 Pro drones, gaming consoles, and trial funds.

 

 

The milestones scale upward across late December and early January, pushing participants to stay active across multiple periods rather than dumping volume in a single burst.

 

Quest 2: Ride the sleigh of surprises

Not everyone wants to chase trading volume, and Toobit clearly knows that. The Sleigh of Surprises is built around simple actions: making a first deposit, completing a first trade, hitting modest spot or copy trading volumes, or subscribing to earn products.

 

Each completed task earns a draw from a mystery box. The contents range from merchandise and collectibles to bonuses, trial funds, and token rewards.

 

For many, this track is less about strategy and more about momentum; small wins that stack up over time.

 

 

 

Quest 3: Top Santa’s nice list

The third path is where things turn competitive. Santa’s Nice List is a performance-based futures trading leaderboard that scales its prize pool based on total participation. If enough people join, the pool grows to 500,000 USDT, split across the top 200 ranked traders.

 

Ranking is based on P&L%, not raw profit, which helps level the field. The top-ranked participant can walk away with up to 40,000 USDT, while lower ranks still receive smaller cash rewards or vouchers. There’s also a minimum trading volume requirement to qualify, ensuring the leaderboard reflects actual engagement rather than one lucky trade.

 

Who can participate in the Christmas Trading Showdown?

Why this event actually matters

Holiday trading campaigns are nothing new, but the scale and structure of this one stand out. By mixing volume incentives, task-based rewards, and performance rankings, Toobit spreads participation across different trader profiles instead of funneling everyone into a single outcome.

 

It also reflects a broader shift in how exchanges compete. Attention is scarce, liquidity is mobile, and engagement now matters just as much as fees or features. 

 

The takeaway

The Christmas Trading Showdown isn’t about easy money or seasonal fluff. It’s about staying active when most people slow down, rewarding consistency over time, and giving participants multiple ways to engage without forcing a single strategy.

 

For some, it’s a chance to push volume and chase headline prizes. For others, it’s a reason to stay plugged in through the holidays and pick up smaller rewards along the way. Either way, Toobit has made one thing clear: December is no longer an off-season.
