WEEX has introduced a new AI-powered trading campaign that leans heavily on strategy rather than speculation. The exchange has launched its AI Hackathon, a multi-stage event that rewards accurate predictions, controlled futures trading, and community referrals with a combined prize pool of 1 BTC.
The competition has already gone live and runs until January 26, marking one of WEEX’s most structured promotional efforts to date.
Built for Participation
This isn’t a volume-at-all-costs contest. WEEX has designed the AI Hackathon to unfold in stages, starting with prediction and progressing into trading and referrals. Participants must register through the official event page, and only activities generated after registration are counted.
That detail matters. It ensures the rewards reflect deliberate participation rather than opportunistic spikes.

Key Dates and Who Qualifies
The event window spans January 14 at 16:00 UTC through January 26 at 15:59 UTC. New-user eligibility applies to the BTC trading rewards, while the prediction phase remains open to registered participants.
Only USDT-M futures trades are eligible. Coin-M contracts, zero-fee executions, and stablecoin pairs are excluded from calculations.
Event 1: Prediction Comes First
Everything begins with forecasting. Once the AI Wars preliminary teams are announced, users submit their predictions via the official form. Correct entries qualify for a Mystery Box draw featuring trading bonuses, position airdrops, and WEEX-branded merchandise.
Participation in this phase is required. Without completing Event 1, users can’t access the BTC reward pools tied to later stages.
Event 2: Deposit and Trade to Access 0.7 BTC
The largest share of rewards sits in Event 2. WEEX has allocated 0.7 BTC to users who complete two tasks during the campaign.
Participants must deposit at least 200 USDT and generate a minimum of 1,000 USDT in USDT-M futures volume. Both requirements must be satisfied, and only net deposits and qualifying trades placed after registration are counted.
Rewards are distributed proportionally. Every user who completes the tasks receives an equal share of the pool.
Event 3: Referral-Based BTC Rewards
WEEX has set aside an additional 0.3 BTC for referrals. Users who invite friends to complete Event 2 earn a share of this pool once their invitees meet the deposit and trading requirements.
The structure avoids overlap. Invitees earn from the 0.7 BTC pool, while referrers earn from the separate allocation.
Distribution and Safeguards
BTC rewards will be distributed within seven working days after the event concludes, the team says. The final payout amount is calculated using the BTC market price on the day of distribution.
WEEX has also emphasized strict enforcement. Any form of wash trading, collusion, or abuse of the rules will result in disqualification, with all rewards forfeited.
A Sign of Where Exchange Promotions Are Heading
The AI Hackathon reflects a broader shift in exchange incentives. Traders are being rewarded for informed participation rather than nonstop exposure. By combining prediction, AI insights, and capped trading requirements, WEEX has delivered a campaign that feels deliberate and accessible.
Registration has already opened, and with the event clock running, the opportunity window is narrowing fast.
