Bitget Wallet Is Running a $200,000 Rewards Campaign Across Three Separate World Cup Promotions
As part of the launch, Bitget Wallet announced a $200,000 rewards campaign structured across three distinct promotional initiatives tied to the tournament. The first, called World Cup Champion Pick, runs from June 4 to July 20 and invites users to predict the tournament winner, invite friends, and accumulate points. According to Bitget Wallet, users who correctly identify the champion will receive a share of the rewards pool proportional to their accumulated points.
The second campaign, called 20-Day Prediction Streak, runs from June 11 to June 30 and rewards users who make predictions consistently and meet specified trading activity thresholds over the campaign window.
The third initiative involves community watch parties hosted by Bitget Wallet during the tournament, featuring live match discussions, fan streams, and additional rewards for participants. The company did not disclose the individual reward allocations across the three campaigns.
Bitget Wallet Upgraded Its Prediction Market Infrastructure to Handle Traffic Surges During Live Matches
To prepare for increased user activity during live World Cup matches, Bitget Wallet said it has upgraded its underlying prediction market infrastructure ahead of the tournament. The upgrades include real-time score verification, price-checking systems, and expanded cloud infrastructure designed to handle traffic surges during high-viewership matches, according to Bitget Wallet. The company said the upgrades extend its existing Polymarket integration rather than replacing it.
Alvin Kan, chief operating officer of Bitget Wallet, said the integration is designed to give fans a way to act on their tournament predictions through on-chain markets. Elden Mirzoian, director of growth and partnerships at Polymarket, said the integration gives fans an additional way to participate in the tournament by engaging directly with event-based prediction markets.
