BitMart, EAT Launch 30-Day Trade-to-Feed With $4.4M USDT

BitMart and WYDE launched the Trade-to-Feed competition on April 28, a 30-day trading event that runs through May 28, 2026. The campaign offers up to $4.4 million USDT in trader rewards and directs fees collected during the event to meal funding through WYDE Association and Feed the Children.

The prize pool supports three concurrent tracks. The Volume Leaderboard accounts for 50% of the pool, with up to 73 ranked traders sharing the funds and the top trader eligible for as much as $2.2 million USDT. The Power Drop issues 75,500 flat $10 USDT tickets; traders who complete at least $40 in EAT spot volume qualify and tickets are distributed proportionally to volume. Lucky Drops will deliver up to 15 random USDT jackpots ranging from $5,000 to $100,000, drawn weekly and at the campaign close; traders who complete $2,000 or more in EAT spot volume qualify. At the stated $200 million volume cap, the cumulative Lucky Drops pool is $435,000. A Welcome Lucky Draw for new participants carries a $5,000 USDT pool and will award 803 winners across three tiers to those who register and execute a $5 USDT EAT spot trade.

BitMart noted that the prize pool grows with trading volume and that organic volume from the event will contribute to meal funding through WYDE’s infrastructure.

WYDE Association will allocate cause fees using a two-pool model. Fifty percent of fees are earmarked for WYDE’s national hunger-relief grant partner, Feed the Children, which distributes food, essentials and disaster relief in the United States and internationally. The remaining 50 percent is allocated by EAT token holders through community voting on the Hunger Network, a public directory of verified hunger-relief organizations. WYDE confirmed that all distributions are recorded on-chain and are publicly verifiable.

Chad Liang, BitMart’s executive vice president, commented that the eighth-anniversary activity was an opportunity to ‘put real weight behind a direction we believe in’ and described the listing of EAT and the competition as a way to ‘help define what comes next, not just trading what already exists.’ Aaron Rafferty, co-founder of WYDE, added that the BitMart listing had ‘named a category’ for cause coins.

EAT launched on Base on December 10, 2025, as the first cause coin on the WYDE Impact Exchange. WYDE reports that EAT has funded more than 25,000 meals to date. BitMart, founded in 2018, operates a global trading platform with more than 1,700 trading pairs and millions of users.

A risk notice accompanying the campaign states that using BitMart services carries substantial risk, that digital assets are not suitable for all participants, and that sweepstakes mechanics do not guarantee winning.
