[CLOSED] Celestia (TIA) Pre-Launch Futures Trading Competition with 5,000 TIA in Rewards

Update: This campaign ended on November 5th 2023

In October 2023, Helix announced its newest product offering, Pre-Launch Futures, listing Celestia (TIA) as its first market. Helix is also the first exchange that offers users an opportunity to gain access to the Celestia (TIA) token prior to its official launch!

Along with the launch, Helix is excited to announce the launch of a special trading competition with Celestia (TIA) tokens as rewards. Read more below to find out more about Celestia and how you can win the trading prizes!

What Is Celestia (TIA)?

Celestia is a modular consensus and data network, built to enable anyone to easily deploy their own blockchain with minimal overhead. Celestia claims to be one of the first modular blockchain networks and has raised $55 million to date from leading funds such as Bain Capital Crypto and Polychain.

TIA is the native token of the Celestia blockchain. The token is used to secure the network via Proof of Stake and to pay for transaction fees on the network, and eventually a fee burn mechanism similar to EIP-1559 in Ethereum. Celestia is speculated to launch its token on major exchanges within the coming weeks.

Celestia (TIA) Volume Trading Competition

To celebrate the launch of Celestia (TIA) Pre-Launch Futures, Helix is sponsoring 5,000 TIA tokens as the prize pool for users trading in this market.

The trading competition will offer users the opportunity to trade on Helix in order to not only win prizes exclusive to this competition, but also to enjoy market leading rebates, zero gas fees, lightning fast speeds and best-in-class security.

Go to the Account page on Helix and click “Deposit”;
Select Ethereum in the dropdown menu and select USDT as the token you want to bridge;
Click the “Set Allowance” button, which allows the bridge contract to use your USDT for the transfer; this will prompt you to sign a transaction via MetaMask or another wallet;

Enter the amount of USDT you want to bridge over and click “Transfer Now”;
After a few minutes, the transaction will be completed;
You can check your USDT balance via the Injective Wallet or Account page on Helix.

Choose your payment currency (e.g. USD) and enter the amount in fiat you would like to swap;
Select Injective as the network to receive your payment amount;
Follow the instructions and continue the steps;
Once the transaction is completed, you will see the USDT or INJ balance on Injective Wallet or Account page under Helix;
