About SwapRoyale

Fantasy trading contests with real competition

What we do

SwapRoyale is a fantasy trading contest platform. Players pay a fixed entry fee, receive a virtual $100,000 portfolio, and trade it across stocks, crypto, commodities, and forex at live market prices over the contest window. The players with the highest portfolio values when the contest ends win a share of the real-money prize pool, paid in USDC.

Unlike traditional brokerage accounts, every player in a SwapRoyale contest starts with exactly the same balance. There is no advantage to account size, no leverage to blow up with, no margin to call. What's left is the trading decision itself, and the contest result is decided by skill against other players, not by the dollar amount you bring to the table.

Why we built it

Two trends shape the modern retail trading experience. The first is that real-money trading is increasingly accessible: a generation of investors got their first taste of the market through commission-free brokerages. The second is that trading platforms reward account size: the more you put in, the more you stand to win or lose. That's just how brokerage math works.

Fantasy contests flip the second dynamic. Same balance for everyone, same prices, same time window. We built SwapRoyale because a head-to-head trading contest is the cleanest way we can think of to test market intuition against other players, without the risk profile of putting real money on every individual trade.
