Budokan Prizes

Budokan features a flexible, permissionless prize system that allows anyone to add prizes to new or ongoing tournaments. This guide explains how prizes work, how to add and claim them, and best practices for both players and sponsors.

Supported Prize Tokens

For security, Budokan currently uses a whitelist of tokens for prizes. In the future, any token supported on Ekubo, as well as NFTs (ERC721), will be available for use. This enables communities and sponsors to contribute a wide variety of rewards.
