The rules

  • Same start. $50,000 each from the Nov. 2, 2026 daily close.
  • The copiers. Each splits its money evenly across its platform's top 10 by 30-day return, and every 30 days picks again with whatever the 10 are worth.
  • What a pick earns. The trader's own account, day by day: each day's profit over the balance it started the day with, so deposits and withdrawals don't count. The trader's profit share comes out of gains.
  • Profit share. Hyperliquid and Binance publish each trader's rate; OKX doesn't, so 10% is used.
  • Best case for copiers. On Hyperliquid a vault's result is exactly what its followers get. On Binance and OKX a copier's orders fill after the trader's, at other prices, so real copiers usually do worse.
  • Days. Binance and OKX report their days ending at 16:00 UTC; Hyperliquid and Botsfolio AI days end at 00:00 UTC.
  • Botsfolio AI. A public paper portfolio in bitcoin and ether on live prices, after Botsfolio's real-money fee on what it trades.
  • Not included. Bybit publishes only 16 traders it chooses itself, and Bitget publishes no leaderboard data.
