Kash Incentive Program: The Control Centre Is Hiring
TL;DR: The World Cup ends Sunday. The fun doesn't. Every call you make on Kash earns XP, XP sets your rank, and the top 200 split a weekly USDC pool that starts at $2K and grows by $3K for every 500 new active traders. Win the leaderboard and you get priority access to market creation, which means you stop answering the internet's questions and start asking them. Here's the whole thing, with a video for every step.
PUBLIC NOTICE. The World Cup final takes place on Sunday. The internet has been advised that it may return to normal activity shortly afterwards. The internet has declined.
Here's how Sunday night goes. The trophy goes up, and the timeline gives it about ninety minutes. By Monday it's the F1 calendar, a tennis draw nobody can pronounce, a token doing something inexplicable, and a heated argument about a logo. The tournament was the excuse. The show was always the internet itself.
Not that the football was the problem. The football was outstanding. It just wasn't the half of it. Ten million people signed a petition to have Argentina thrown out of the tournament for being FIFA's favourites. Messi stayed on the pitch against Algeria and the internet still hasn't let it go. Egypt went two goals up and lost in thirteen minutes. Then Argentina beat England, unfurled a Falklands banner, and by morning the British Prime Minister was asking FIFA to investigate and an MP was demanding the players be barred from Sunday's final.
Every one of those was a market. None were on a fixture list. None would get listed anywhere else, on any other prediction market, ever. And the best one is still open: does FIFA actually do anything about that banner before kick-off?
That's the part that doesn't stop when the tournament does. Everybody watching at once, talking rubbish about it in public.
So the Control Centre is staying open, and it's hiring. Starting today. What follows is the incentive program: what it pays, what it pays for, and how to get on the payroll.
The Off-Season Has Been Cancelled
Kash is a social native prediction market. Markets live where the argument already is: in your feed, launched from creator accounts, the Kash account, and our partners'. You reply to trade. That's the whole mechanic.
A market takes thirty seconds to make, which means it can be live while the moment still is. Every prediction market before us missed this. They want a big, slow, serious question with a big, slow, serious resolution date, by which point the room has long since moved on. Being the only social prediction market is what lets us run flash markets instead: fast, sharp, occasionally ridiculous, and settled before you've finished arguing about them.
The stuff nobody else will list:
๐๏ธ Safety car before lap 10? The race hasn't started and there's already a position to take.
๐พ Does this one go five sets? Called from the second-set tiebreak, settled by dinner.
โฝ Penalty given before half time? Ninety seconds of VAR, one position, done.
๐ Does Elon post about Mars before midnight? Your timeline already has a strong opinion on this.
๐๏ธ Does Ansem say "supercycle" on the pod? Somebody is about to find out the hard way.
โฟ Does BTC tag $150K before Friday's close? Short window, clean settlement.
Fifteen minutes to a week, most of them. The micro-moments, the ones that are funny for one afternoon and then gone. Anything can be a market, because almost anything gets better once people are actually playing along instead of just watching.
A month of football has just proved the room shows up. The incentive program is how we keep it here once the whistle goes.
The Program
Three parts, one loop:
1. Achievements - 63 of them across 13 groups, each worth XP.
2. XP - the single currency. Everything you do converts into it.
3. The leaderboard - XP sets your rank, and rank decides what you're owed.
What rank pays: a weekly cut of a USDC pool, and priority access to market creation.
The board runs the length of the campaign, and your XP carries the whole way. A strong week one still counts in week six.
Trade, earn, climb, get paid. The rest of this article is each piece, up close.
Step 1: Get On The Payroll
Head to app.kash.bot and sign in. Thirty seconds. No wallet to set up, no seed phrase to write down. Connect your social account, confirm a recovery email, done.
Complete your profile and that's Fresh Meat: 50 XP, on the board, before you've done anything at all.
Step 2: Top Up
The moment you sign up we spin up a self-custody wallet for you, powered by Privy. Nothing to install, no seed phrase to manage, and you hold the keys. It's yours; we just make it effortless.
Topping up takes two or three clicks and there are three doors in: connect an existing wallet, deposit crypto directly, or on-ramp with a card, Apple Pay, or other traditional rails. Funds land in a minute or two. Your first deposit is Show Me The Money, 100 XP.
You decide what goes behind each call, and whatever you don't put on a market stays yours, ready for the next one.
Step 3: Find Something Worth Calling
Scroll your feed. Follow the creators and partners you rate. The markets come to you: token moves, match results, who ships, who wins, what breaks next, and the daft ones that only make sense for an afternoon.
Range pays here. The Jack of All Markets group rewards breadth: 3 categories makes you a Dabbler, 5 a Renaissance Trader, and calling every category on the board is worth 1,000 XP. Turns out the people who are right about everything are rarer than the timeline suggests.
Step 4: Reply To Trade
This is the part nothing else does. A market shows up in your feed, you've got a view, you back it right there. Reply or quote-post with your side and your amount, and seconds later it's live. The take and the trade happen in the same place, without switching apps.
The one rule: tag the account that launched the market with your take and your amount.
๐จ Creator market โ tag that creator's account
๐ก Kash market โ tag @kash_bot_trades
๐ค Partner market โ tag that partner's handle (@partner-handle)
So a call looks like: "@kash_bot_trades YES 50". That's the whole trade. First time you do it, that's First Blood for 100 XP. Do it 25 times and you've earned Social Trader.
The market you were about to scroll past becomes a position with your name on it.
Step 5: Or Take The Other Door
Prefer to browse and place directly? The full board is at app.kash.bot. Open a market, pick your side, set your size, confirm. Same XP, same leaderboard, different door in.
Then keep showing up. Trading activity runs from Warming Up at 10 calls to Certified Degen at 1,000. Streaks pay for turning up: 7 days is Ride or Die, 30 is Ice In My Veins, and 100 straight days makes you a Lifer for 5,000 XP.
Grab this one early: deposit, trade and engage all within 24 hours of signing up and you take the Speedrun bonus. 300 XP for doing what you were going to do anyway, just in one sitting.
Schedule A: What Things Are Worth
Every achievement is banded by rarity, and the band sets the payout.
| Rarity | XP band |
|---|---|
| Common | 50-150 |
| Uncommon | 300-500 |
| Rare | 600-1,000 |
| Epic | 1,500-2,500 |
| Legendary | 5,000-10,000 |
Volume, realised profit and referrals who trade sit at the top, because that's what the whole thing runs on. Follows and likes pay Common: nice to have, priced like it.
There's roughly 110K XP on the board for one person to claim. Nobody's getting all of it.
The Catalog: 63 Ways On
Thirteen groups, sixty-three ways on. The headline tracks:
| Group | What it rewards | Top prize |
|---|---|---|
| ๐ Onboarding | Getting set up and making your first call | Speedrun, 300 XP |
| ๐ Trading activity | Calls placed | Certified Degen, 3,000 XP |
| ๐ Diamond Hands | Total USDC locked across calls | Whale Alert, 5,000 XP |
| ๐ฎ Nostradamus | Correct calls, hit-rate, realised profit | Clairvoyant, 5,000 XP |
| ๐ฅ Win streaks | Consecutive correct calls | Heater, 3,000 XP |
| ๐ Activity streaks | Consecutive days trading | Lifer, 5,000 XP |
| ๐ Jack of All Markets | Calling across categories | Jack of All Markets, 1,000 XP |
| ๐ Kingmaker | Creating markets people actually trade | Went Viral, 2,500 XP |
| ๐ฑ Pied Piper | Referrals who actually trade | Kingpin, 10,000 XP |
| ๐พ Yield Farmer | USDC staked in the vault | Vault Whale, 2,000 XP |
| ๐ฌ Social | Community engagement | Social Trader, 500 XP |
| ๐ Leaderboard | Holding rank over time | The GOAT, 5,000 XP |
| โ The Crown | The global single-market ROI record | Long Live The King, 3,000 XP |
The accuracy track is where the arguments go to die
Anyone can grind trade count. Being right, repeatedly, in public, is the flex, and it's priced accordingly. Sharp wants 60% correct across at least 10 resolved markets. Sniper wants 70% across 25. Clairvoyant wants 80% across 50, and pays 5,000 XP.
Read the sample sizes, because they're the whole joke. Fifty resolved markets is roughly forty-seven more than the average timeline expert has ever put their name to.
And profit scores twice
Realised PnL pays on both the single-market and the lifetime view. One market printing +$50 is Called It, +$500 is Big Winner, +$1K is a Home Run. Across your whole record, +$100 is In The Green, +$1K is Money Printer, +$10K is Smart Money.
The Leaderboard, And The Thing Worth Racing For
| Timeframe | Milestone | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1-3 | The Race | Compete for XP. Live, rolling leaderboard. |
| Week 4 | Top 100 | Earn market-creation access. |
| Week 5 | Top 200 | Access widens to the next tier. |
| Week 6+ | Top 300, 400... | Access opens further each week. |
Market creation is the real prize in here. Winning the leaderboard means priority access: the top of the board creates markets first, before anyone else on the internet gets the ability at all. Access then phases outward strictly by rank, tier by tier, week by week. Everyone else waits, and the wait is decided entirely by where you finished.
Kingmaker pays the moment you use it: 300 XP for your first market, 1,000 if it draws 10 unique traders, 2,500 if it clears $10K in volume.
Think about what that actually hands you. Right now the internet decides what's worth arguing about and you pick a side. Finish high enough and you're the one who decides. You get to look at a Thursday afternoon, find the one absurd thing everybody is quietly thinking, and put a market on it before anyone else can. That's not a payout. That's the aux cord.
The Pool
XP is the engine. The weekly USDC pool is what it drives.
It splits across the top 200 by rank. At a $5K pool, #1 takes roughly $250 and #200 roughly $25, scaling smoothly in between.
It starts at $2K and grows with the room. Every 500 new active traders adds another $3K, capped at $5K a week for now. Active means someone who's actually trading: a minimum of $25 of volume in the week.
Which makes this the rare leaderboard where dragging your mates in is straightforwardly good for you. A bigger room means a bigger pool means a bigger cut, for everyone standing in it, including the people you're competing against. Sorry.
Payouts are airdropped weekly, straight to your wallet. Non-custodial start to finish: we don't hold your funds, so we can't lock them.
Referrals Live Inside XP
Bring people in and you get paid twice: once in XP, and again in a cut that mirrors whatever they go on to win.
A referral counts once your referee trades $50 to resolution. From there the Pied Piper track pays: 1 qualifying referral is 150 XP, 5 is 400, 10 is 800, 25 is 1,500, 50 unlocks affiliate status for 5,000, and 100 makes you a Kingpin for 10,000 XP, the single biggest number on the board.
Your bonus mirrors your referee's rank
This is the part worth reading twice. You earn what the people you bring in earn. Refer someone who finishes #1 and you both take $250. Refer someone who lands #200 and you both take $25.
So the move isn't volume, it's taste. One friend who actually reads the room will out-earn a thousand-person link spray, permanently. Pick the person from the group chat who's annoyingly right about everything. They're about to make you money.
โ King Kasher: One Crown, One Record
Above the board sits a single live record: the highest ROI ever landed on one market, positions of $100 and up.
Whoever holds it wears a golden username and a crown across their profile, the feed and the leaderboard. They keep it until somebody beats the number, at which point the title moves instantly and without ceremony. It isn't earned once and kept. It's held, in public, against everyone.
| Badge | Detail | XP |
|---|---|---|
| ๐ Coup (repeatable) | Beat the standing single-market ROI record. Fires every time you retake the crown, once per day. | 2,000 each |
| ๐ฐ Long Live The King | Hold the crown for 5 consecutive days. Permanent badge: the sustained-reign flex on top of the instant Coup. | 3,000 |
One crown. One number. Everyone can see it. Good luck.
Clock On
The race for market creation is happening now, in the first weeks, while the field is small and early XP compounds into rank fastest.
The fastest opening move: sign in, top up, make a call, engage with a market post, all inside your first 24 hours. That's Fresh Meat, Show Me The Money, First Blood, First Engagement and Speedrun, which is 600 XP before you've done anything clever.
The World Cup is only ever the excuse. So is the F1 season, and the tennis, and whatever the timeline decides to lose its mind about on Thursday. The point is the room, and the room isn't going anywhere on Sunday night. It'll still be here, still talking, still certain.
You've been calling it for free this whole time. The board is open, the pool is live, and the shift starts now.
FAQ
What actually is XP?
The single currency of the incentive program. Every achievement pays XP, XP sets your rank on the leaderboard, and rank decides your cut of the weekly USDC pool plus when market-creation access opens to you.
How long does the leaderboard run?
The board runs the length of the campaign and your XP carries the whole way through it, so XP earned in week one still counts in week six.
How much can I actually earn?
The weekly pool splits across the top 200. At a $5K pool that's roughly $250 for #1 down to roughly $25 for #200. The pool opens at $2K and grows by $3K for every 500 new active traders, capped at $5K a week for now. Payouts are airdropped weekly.
What makes someone an "active trader" for the pool?
A minimum of $25 of volume in the week. The pool grows with people actually trading, not with sign-ups.
How do referrals pay?
Through XP, and by mirroring your referee's rank. Refer someone who finishes #1 and you both get $250; refer #200 and you both get $25. A referral counts once your referee has traded $50 to resolution.
When can I create my own markets?
By rank, and rank alone. Winning the leaderboard gets you priority access: the top of the board goes first, from week 4, then the top 100, then the top 200 in week 5, then wider tiers every week after.
What is King Kasher?
One global crown for the highest ROI ever landed on a single market, at positions of $100 and up. The holder gets a golden username and crown across the app until someone beats the record. Taking it is worth 2,000 XP; holding it five straight days is worth 3,000 more.
What kind of markets can I trade?
Flash markets, mostly: short-lived calls on whatever the internet is currently arguing about. Sport, crypto, tech, culture, drama. Most resolve in fifteen minutes to a week, and plenty of them are the kind of question no other prediction market would ever list.
