Royale of Royales is coming. Are you ready? đź‘‘
Open call to Thales Royale winners and those who would like a challenge!
Put your name in Thales’ history books
Throughout the year we’ve had 9 seasons of Thales Royale on Optimism, the on-chain survival positioning game where participants chose the outcome of a crypto-asset’s price movement during a series of 6 rounds.
And oh boy it was fun!
For each of these events, played every 2 weeks, the Thales community gathered on Thales Discord to discuss their positions, engage in friendly banter rooting for either the UP or DOWN option, and also to brag when they were able to beat the competition and survive the final round đź‘‘
We enjoyed a lot running these events, and it was a great way of building the community vibe while developing some advancements in Thales smart contracts, like the addition of Thales Royale Pass NFTs (redeemable for registering in any of the previous seasons with 30 sUSD buy-in) and the Thales Royale Passport (a fully on-chain evolving NFT that tracked positions for every round 👀), but as we announced before it’s now time to put a pause on those to fully focus on optimizing Thales core platforms, including Ranged Markets, Ex0t1c Markets, and the soon-to-be-released 0vert1me Markets (first sports AMM with Chainlink data fees 🏀).
So, how are we gonna end this first cycle of Thales Royale events?
Introducing Royale of Royales
We wanted to crown 👑 these series of events with a big one, and that’s why we decided to go with a higher buy-in event open to everyone, where all the previous winners of Season I through IX will be auto-registered sponsored by treasury (adding sUSD to the prize pool), and an incentivized prize pool for that punch of extra flavor 🔥
Pro tip: For those who dont’ know how to play in Thales Royale events or need a reminder, you can check our documentation.

All seems cool but, what about the prizes? 🏆
Royale of Royales prizes:
Those who make it through the 6 rounds (or outlast their competition) will share a prize pool composed of:

You can save the date for when the registration starts with this Discord event.
If you want to participate have 100 sUSD at hand for when the registration starts, on Monday 27th 4PM UTC and register here. Then once the event starts on Tuesday 30th 4PM UTC, you’ll have 8 hours for each positioning
And if you are one of the champions from any Thales Royale Season, from I through IX, you’ll be autoregistered so don’t forget that the actual event starts 72 hours after registration period, so on Tuesday 30th 4PM UTC you should be ready to take a position for the first round. Remember, positioning phase only last 8 hours per round, so don’t miss it
May the odds be with you on this one!
