Universal Cabals
Trade together to earn special rewards.
Universal Cabals allow users to form or join trading groups to maximize rewards on UniversalX.
When you join a Cabal, your trading activity contributes both to your personal earnings AND your group's overall performance.
Groups that trade more and perform better can access higher cash reward rates and compete for a bi-weekly prize pool.
How to Participate
Joining a Cabal is quick and requires linking your Telegram and UniversalX account:
1. Connect Your Accounts
From the Cabals interface in the app, link your UniversalX wallet to your Telegram account.
Click the “Link Telegram” button and follow the authorization steps.
2. Join a Cabal
After linking your Telegram, select a Cabal from the dropdown menu and click “Link” to join.
Note: Cabals are managed via Telegram groups and must be joined through your connected Telegram account. There is no in-app Cabal creation process.
3. Trade on UniversalX
Once connected to a Cabal, all of your trading activity will contribute to your Cabal’s ranking and your personal rewards.
Types of Rewards
Universal Cabals offer two types of rewards:
1. Cash Reward Rate
If a user earns a score during the round, they are automatically upgraded to a 15% cash reward tier, if they are currently below that rate.
This upgrade also increases the user's Diamond multiplier for Season 1.
Next-Round Cash Reward Rate Boost by Cabal Rank
Users' cash rewards can also be boosted depending on their Cabal's ranking within the previous round. This is applied as follows:
Cabal Rank
Cash Reward Rate Boost (Next Round)
Ranks 1–5
5%
Ranks 6–10
3%
Ranks 11–20
2%
Ranks 21–50
1%
Cabal's are ranked via a score, which is based on the sum of their PNL and Volume points. These are calculated based on the following formula:
2. Cabal Prize Pool
Every round will determine a unique prize pool, to be distributed at the end of each round.
Only members of the top-ranked group(s) are eligible to participate in this prize pool.
Individual Ranking
Every Cabal participant is ranked independently in two categories:
PNL (Profit & Loss)
Trading Volume
In each category:
The top 5 × number of Cabals (active) users earn points.
The top user earns 5 × N points, decreasing by 1 per rank.
All others receive 0 points.
Prize Distribution (Top Group Only)
Assuming a $10,000 prize, this prize would be distributed as follows:
Recipient Category
Reward
Highest-scoring user
$5,000
Other users with >0 score
Share $3,000, proportional to score
Users with 0 score
Share $2,000, proportional to volume
(If no 0-score users exist)
$2,000 goes to the highest-scoring user
Tiebreaker:
If multiple groups tie for the highest score, the total prize pool is split equally among them, and the standard reward logic applies within each share.
Additional Rules
Cabal Switching
Users may switch Cabals mid-round.
When switching:
Historical trading volume is counted at 50%.
PNL is retained and continues accumulating.
Cash Rewards for Non-Winning Groups
Groups that don’t win the prize pool may still earn up to a 5% trading cash reward, based on rank.
