CHARLESTOWN, SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS — Coinhub Funded, a newly established crypto-native proprietary trading firm operating under the broader Coinhub brand, officially went live today, introducing funded trading accounts of up to $200,000 alongside a unique series of high-speed trading tournaments. The platform enters the market with a comprehensive offering designed to cater to both digital asset enthusiasts and multi-market traders, providing access to over 28 cryptocurrency pairs around the clock on trading days, alongside traditional financial instruments including foreign exchange, indices, metals, and commodities.
The launch, announced on November 3, 2026, from Charlestown, Saint Kitts and Nevis, brings a fresh alternative to the proprietary trading landscape by integrating cryptocurrency-centric account mechanics and rapid payout structures. To mark its market entry, the firm has rolled out a limited-time promotional incentive, offering a 25% discount on any challenge or instant funding account through November 30, 2026, using the code LAUNCH.
A Crypto-First Prop Firm Built for Flexibility
Coinhub Funded aims to distinguish itself within the competitive prop trading industry by tailoring its evaluation processes and payout mechanics to the needs of modern digital asset traders. Participants looking to secure a funded account can qualify through either a traditional 1-Step or 2-Step evaluation process, which features no time limits, or bypass the evaluation phase entirely by opting for an Instant Funding account on their very first day.
Challenges for aspiring funded traders start at an accessible entry point of $75. In a move designed to streamline onboarding and protect user privacy, the firm does not require identity verification until a trader successfully passes the evaluation phase and qualifies for a funded payout. Once funded, traders are permitted to keep up to 90% of the profits they generate. Payout requests can be submitted every 14 days and are processed and delivered in USDT over major blockchain networks, specifically Ethereum, Tron, or the BNB Smart Chain, within one to three business days. Additionally, for traders utilizing the 1-Step and 2-Step evaluation pathways, the original challenge fee is fully refunded alongside their third successful profit payout.
The platform’s underlying asset selection reflects its crypto-native roots, offering continuous access to more than 28 crypto pairs during trading days. This is complemented by a robust selection of conventional markets, including forex, stock indices, precious metals, and commodities, allowing traders to diversify their strategies across multiple asset classes from a single dashboard.
Nine Daily Tournaments With USDT Prizes at Global Market Opens
In addition to its standard evaluation and funded account models, Coinhub Funded has introduced Coinhub Funded Tournaments. These are fast-paced, 30-minute trading contests conducted on $100,000 simulated accounts designed to test participants’ execution skills against a competitive field of global traders.
The tournaments are structured around major institutional market openings, running three times a day at each of the Tokyo open at 00:00 UTC, the London open at 8:00 a.m. London time, and the New York opening bell at 9:30 a.m. Eastern time, every weekday. Each time slot features three distinct participation tiers: a free tier, a $25 tier, and a $100 tier. Entry fees for the paid contests are collected in USDT, with 90% of the total entry pool going directly toward the prize pool, which is subsequently distributed in USDT to the top finishers.
For the free tier, first-place winners receive a prize of 25 USDT, while every participant who enters the free contest receives a promotional code granting a 20% discount toward a standard challenge. The firm emphasizes that these tournaments operate as independent skill contests and have no bearing on any active challenges or funded accounts held by the participants. Detailed schedules and contest regulations are hosted directly on the platform’s official website.
Executives behind the launch highlight the strategic continuity between the new prop firm and the established Coinhub ecosystem, which has provided consumer-facing crypto services since 2019.
"Traders have used the Coinhub name to move in and out of crypto since 2019, and now they can use it to get funded," said Quincy Mathis, Operations Manager at Coinhub Funded. "There is no clock on the evaluation and you get paid in USDT. And with the tournaments, anyone can sit down at the Tokyo, London or New York open and test their skill against other traders for a USDT prize."
