🏆 FUEGO SEASON 1: THE PRIZES
5,600 $LIT across the season, plus $FUEGO, HEAT and a custom 1 of 1 for the overall champion.
Tournament 1 starts September 30. Here’s what’s on the line.
💰 $LIT PRIZE POOLS
Tournament 1: 560 $LIT
Tournament 2: 560 $LIT
Tournament 3: 560 $LIT
Tournament 4: 560 $LIT
Tournament 5: 560 $LIT
Season finale pool: 2,800 $LIT
The top 10 eligible traders in each tournament earn $LIT. The top 20 in the overall season standings share the finale pool.
🥇 THE SEASON CHAMPION
Placements across all five tournaments earn points toward the overall standings. Every tournament counts.
The finale rewards the full season, not a separate sixth tournament.
The overall winner also receives a custom 1 of 1 Fuego they’ll help design with us. We’re still working on the wider collection of 1 of 1s for the Lighter team. The season champion gets their own.
📈 TOURNAMENT 1: ROI COMPETITION
Standings are based on ROI percentage during the tournament, not lifetime account results.
Use your registered Lighter account. No fresh wallet, new account or closing existing positions required.
Starting account value and capital movements are accounted for under the scoring rules. Deposits are not trading profit.
ROI is our starting format. Future tournaments may introduce PnL, volume or other categories. Changes will be announced before the affected tournament’s registration cutoff, never midway through competition.
⚒️ TOURNAMENT 1 TRADER REWARDS
• Eligible places 1–10: $LIT + $FUEGO + HEAT
• Eligible places 11–50: $FUEGO + HEAT
• Outside the top 50: HEAT for eligible traders completing at least one verified trade during the tournament.
$FUEGO fuels upgrades for your Fuegos, helping increase their share of eligible Vault distributions.
HEAT is your earned loyalty score, built through qualifying participation in Fuego competitions on Lighter. It’s nontransferable and helps unlock upgrades you can mint in the Forge.
🤝 DELEGATE AND EARN
You don’t have to trade to take part. Delegate your Fuegos to traders you believe in and earn eligible $FUEGO and HEAT rewards through their participation and performance.
Delegators have separate reward allocations, not deductions from the trader’s personal prize. Your NFT stays in your wallet.
⏰ THE SEASON SCHEDULE
Five 14-day tournaments, with two-day breaks between rounds to review standings and assign your Fuegos for the next competition.
Tournament 1:
• Registration and delegation close September 30 at 15:00 UTC.
• Trading starts September 30 at 18:00 UTC.
• Trading ends October 14 at 18:00 UTC.
Tournament 5 ends December 17, followed by three days to review results. The Season 1 champion and overall standings will be announced December 20.
📋 BEFORE YOU ENTER
• Traders need at least $500 in their registered Lighter account.
• All trading happens on Lighter’s website, using your registered account on Mainnet or the Robinhood instance.
• Tournament 1 uses Fuego’s tracking and website leaderboard.
• Only Fuegos registered for trading or delegated before the cutoff are eligible for Tournament 1 rewards.
• Each Fuego takes one role per tournament: trading or delegated.
• Miss the first cutoff? You can still join Tournament 2.
Full eligibility and scoring rules will be published before registration closes, including when the $500 minimum is measured and how deposits, withdrawals and ties are handled.
📖 THE ECONOMY BREAKDOWN
Coming in a few days: exact $FUEGO emissions, HEAT awards, delegation allocations, rank-by-rank prize tables and how rewards connect to upgrades, Vaults and the Forge.
Get your Fuegos in. Pick your traders. September 30, we start.

A Lighter on Robinhood Chain point would be worth ~$112 if the campaign ended today.
It won't, and the length of the campaign turns out to matter more than the $LIT price.
I built a calculator that prices a point off the 11M $LIT pool, the live $LIT price and the weekly drops so far, so you can see what your farming is worth before the campaign runs long. The math is simple, but the answer moves a lot depending on how many weeks are left.
What the data says
→ 465k points have gone out over six weekly drops since Aug 14, each one 5k bigger than the last (65k to 90k). At ~$4.80 the 11M $LIT pool is worth ~$53M.
→ If drops keep growing 5k a week, a point is worth ~$47 at 12 weeks (Nov 6), ~$32 at 16 weeks (Dec 4) and ~$16 at 26 weeks (Feb 12).
→ Going from 12 to 26 weeks cuts the value of a point by about two thirds, while $LIT falling from $4.80 to $3 cuts it by about a third.
→ The 2x Robinhood Wallet multiplier and this week's hedging boost lower your cost per point, but they don't grow the pool. They only help you against other farmers.
What the dashboard does
→ Pulls the live $LIT price from Lighter's $LIT/USDC spot market, with CoinGecko as a backup.
→ Maps value per point across campaign length and $LIT price against your own cost per point, so you can see where your farming stops paying.
→ Four airdrop scenarios, from a short 10-week campaign with $LIT up 50% to a diluted 26-week run with $LIT halving.
→ Shows your break-even $LIT price and the latest end date at which farming still pays.

Week 6: 90,000 points distributed.
From 97.61 pts to 137.84.
Volume last week for 30ish pts = 270k
Volume this week for 40ish pts = 230k
Do not spam volume, trade smart.

🔥FUEGO SEASON 1 STARTS SEPTEMBER 30.
The date is set. $LIT and $FUEGO are on the line. Make sure your Fuegos are registered or delegated for Tournament 1.
Trade yourself, back your favorite traders, or do both. This is what we’ve been building toward: putting your Fuegos to work, competing for rewards, and using what you earn to upgrade them throughout the season. $FUEGO powers it all.
📈REGISTER TO TRADE
Head to https://t.co/lury2L50j7, link your Lighter account, and register your eligible Fuegos for Tournament 1.
Traders need a minimum balance of $500 in their registered Lighter account.
🤝DELEGATE YOUR FUEGOS
You don’t have to trade to take part. Choose someone from the trader directory and delegate your Fuego to back them.
Your NFT stays in your wallet, and you can earn tournament rewards based on their performance.
Holding multiple Fuegos? You can delegate to different traders or register some for trading and delegate the rest. Each eligible delegated Fuego can earn tournament rewards. Each Fuego can be registered for trading or delegated, not both in the same tournament.
🏆EARN $LIT. BUILD WITH $FUEGO.
Tournament rewards include $LIT and $FUEGO.
$FUEGO is the fuel behind what comes next for your Fuegos. Earn it through tournaments, then burn it to level up and mint upgrades in the Forge.
The full economy breakdown arrives in a few days. Vaults, ignition, the Forge, HEAT, and how it all connects. We’ll cover what opens first and what follows.
🏁LET’S GET SEASON 1 STARTED
Tournament 1 will use Fuego’s own tracking and leaderboard. We’ll transition to Lighter Guilds for future tournaments once it’s ready.
All trading still happens on Lighter Mainnet or the Robinhood instance. Get your Fuegos registered or delegated, trade on Lighter, and follow the tournament standings on our website.
⏳ GET YOUR FUEGOS IN FOR TOURNAMENT 1
Only Fuegos registered for trading or delegated before the cutoff are eligible for Tournament 1 rewards.
If you miss that cutoff, you can still join for Tournament 2. This requirement is for tournament rewards, separate from Vaults.
Full rules drop tomorrow, including the exact start time, registration cutoff, scoring and prize details.
Get registered. Pick your traders. Let’s see what this community can do.
September 30. Fuego Season 1 begins. 🔥

@linenmito@RobinhoodCrypto@Lighter_xyz Great post but idk about the volume.
30.51 points on friday only with 270k volume.
In my understanding points are in RWA / Pre-ipo + low OI pairs + hours/day positions.
@DragonCrip@Lighter_xyz No, me fue bastante bien incluso con poco volumen de 270k.
Longs desde RH Wallet con Market Orders y shorts en Lighter Core para hacer el hedge.
RWA + Pre IPO, con prioridad a las Low OI.
30 puntos siempre en Premium.
