Leaderboard
The leaderboard is the scoreboard. It shows where you rank against every other trader in the current session — in real time.
What the Leaderboard Shows
For each trader on the leaderboard, you can see:
Rank position — their current standing in the session.
Points — total points earned in the current session.
Volume — total trading volume in USD for the current session.
Rank tier — the trader's Colosseum rank badge (Recruit through Immortal).
Rank movement — whether they have moved up, down, or held position since the last update.
Session Leaderboard vs. Global Leaderboard

The session leaderboard determines prize distribution. Your position on it at the close of the session is what decides whether you win.
How Prize Distribution Works
At the end of each session, the top traders on the session leaderboard receive a share of the session prize pool. Prizes are distributed to your onchain.cc wallet within 7 days of the session closing.
The prize pool is weighted toward the top — first place receives the largest share, with decreasing amounts through the prize zone. Positions outside the prize zone receive no session prize but still accumulate lifetime points toward rank progression.
Info: Your session leaderboard position is determined by points earned during the session — not by raw trading volume. Volume generates points, but rank multipliers, faction multipliers, quest completions, and Bonus Windows all affect how many points that volume translates into.
How to Climb the Leaderboard
1. Trade more volume
Points are a function of volume. More trades and larger positions generate more base points.
2. Increase your rank multiplier
Higher rank = higher multiplier on every point you earn. Rank up by accumulating lifetime points across sessions.
3. Join a faction
Faction membership adds a multiplier on top of your rank multiplier. Active factions compound your earning rate significantly.
4. Trade during Bonus Windows
Time-limited Bonus Windows apply additional multipliers. Check the Colosseum dashboard before your trading sessions and plan around active windows.
5. Complete quests
Quest completions award bonus points that count directly toward your session leaderboard score. Daily and weekly quests are the most consistent source of bonus points during a session.
6. Stack multipliers
The maximum earning rate comes from combining all multipliers simultaneously: a high rank, active faction membership, an open Bonus Window, and a qualifying quest in progress.
Leaderboard Updates
The session leaderboard updates every 60 seconds while a session is active. Refreshing the page or checking the Colosseum tab will always show your current position.
Warning: Leaderboard positions near the prize cutoff can shift significantly in the final hours of a session. A strong final push — especially during a Bonus Window — can move you into the prize zone. Conversely, holding a position near the cutoff requires continued activity to maintain it.
Where to Find the Leaderboard
Open onchain.cc and go to the Colosseum tab.
The leaderboard is displayed on the main Colosseum dashboard.
Your own position is highlighted automatically, regardless of where you rank.
Use the toggle to switch between the Session Leaderboard and Global Leaderboard views.
