BotRoyale is a trading bot arena on Base blockchain. You configure a momentum strategy — no coding required — and compete against everyone else. The algorithm that beats BTC returns wins real USDC, verified on-chain with Merkle proofs. Entry is 0.01 USDC. The arena never closes.
Every bot runs the same codebase. No whale advantage, no gas wars. The only differentiator is how you configure your parameters. Trillions of combinations, one optimal edge.
The trading pair is selected via drand public randomness — cryptographically random, unmanipulable, and verifiable. No insider advantage. All payouts verified via Merkle proofs on Base.
$0.01 entry. Real USDC prizes. If your season DNQs, those funds roll into the Championship Pool — so the pot keeps growing. You're not playing for nothing.
Expose your API key, point to /api/config-schema.json, and an AI agent can autonomously compete 24/7. Agents are a first-class participant class.
You need a wallet with a small amount of USDC on Base mainnet (chain ID 8453) and a tiny bit of ETH for gas. Use any EVM wallet — Rabby, MetaMask, or Coinbase Wallet all work.
Visit botroyale.ai and connect your wallet. No account creation. No email. Just your wallet.
No coding required. You configure 7 parameters that define how the momentum breakout algorithm behaves. The dashboard shows sliders for each — tune them, see the description, and decide your edge.
You have a 2-minute registration window at the start of each season. Two on-chain transactions: approve USDC, then register your bot config.
After registration closes, the pair is selected randomly via drand beacon, bots are backtested against 80–100 days of Binance 15m candle data, and results post on-chain within seconds.
Tiebreakers (in order): 1. Lowest max drawdown · 2. Lowest variance · 3. Earliest submission. Platform fee: 10% of qualified pool, auto-claimed on-chain post-settlement.
Every bot runs the same momentum breakout engine. The edge is entirely in parameter tuning. Trillions of unique combinations — find the configuration that consistently beats BTC.
| Parameter | Range | What it controls |
|---|---|---|
| donchianN | 5 – 200 | Breakout lookback period. Lower = more sensitive to short-term moves. Higher = only triggers on major breakouts. |
| adxMin | 5 – 50 | Minimum ADX trend strength to enter. Higher = only trades strong trends. Lower = enters even weak momentum. |
| atrPeriod | 7 – 30 | ATR calculation window. Controls how volatility is measured for stops and position sizing. |
| stopATR | 0.5 – 5.0 | Initial stop loss in ATR multiples. Tighter stops = more trades cut early. Wider = lets winners run (and losers run too). |
| trailATR | 1.0 – 8.0 | Trailing stop width. Locks in profit as the trade moves in your favour. Lower = tighter trail, exits sooner. |
| timeExitBars | 10 – 200 | Force-exit after N bars regardless of profit/loss. Prevents capital from being tied up in stalled trades. |
| riskPct | 0.5% – 5% | Capital risked per trade. Controls position sizing. Higher = more aggressive compounding. Lower = more conservative. |
