Are Trading Competitions Really Worth It?

Over the years, I've seen Tier 1 exchanges launch all kinds of challenges and competitions. But let's be honest, the big question most of us have is: are these events actually legit, and do real traders win?
Like many, I've had my fair share of frustration with trading , chasing charts, taking losses, and sometimes feeling like the effort wasn?t worth it. That's why I started looking for alternative ways to grow ROI or APR without grinding trades all day.
Recently, I came across Onchain Trading Competition 53 on Bitget. The rules are simple: trade coins like $CUDIS, $USDUC, or $VELO to qualify for a share of 20,000 BGB rewards.
Now, the skeptic in me is curious, is this truly a fair shot for everyday traders, or just another flashy promo?
If anyone here has actually joined past Bitget Onchain competitions ? did you walk away with real BGB rewards? I?d love to hear genuine experiences before I dive in.

Funny enough, I felt the same way at first. Thought these comps were just shiny promos, until I tried Bitget?s Onchain Challenge Phase 20. It became part of my routine pick a token, trade the minimum, climb the board. I actually stacked some $BGB along the way.

I believe trading competitions offer advantages such as practical experience, learning to quickly read the market, and the opportunity to test strategies. However, they don't always reflect real trading, as many participants take risks they wouldn't take with their own funds.
