Founders' Growth Bounty · Free · 2026 season
Dynasty Nexus is free and built solo, and this is how we grow it together. Bring the dynasty world in: the prize pool is unlocked by the community's growth, then paid to the top referrers and the season's Total Return champion — banked best-ball points plus trade P&L, the Standings' Season window. The more managers join, the bigger the pot for everyone chasing it.

The final pool is the highest tier reached by the end of the 2026 regular season. Don't hit the first tier? No pool is owed — it only pays out if it actually takes off.
Your part
Unlike a single-winner prize, sharing here helps you: every friend who joins grows the pool everyone's chasing and climbs your referrer standing. No reason to keep it a secret.

Total Return champion
To the manager with the season's best Total Return — banked best-ball points plus trade P&L, the Standings' Season window. Decided by the whole game: the lineup you field and the market you play.
If the full $2,000 unlocks, it pays out like this:
Referrer rewards stack: the #1 recruiter wins the biggest bonus AND the biggest Builders' slice.

What they're joining
Every NFL player is a collectible card. New managers get 1000 Nex and 18 roster spots; their best ten auto-score real full-PPR points every week. No buy-in, no payouts on gameplay, not a betting product. The market is the real dynasty consensus, not somewhere to invest.

The contest runs through the 2026 NFL regular season, Weeks 1–18 (approximately September 2026 – early January 2027), and is decided by Total Return — banked best-ball points plus trade P&L (booked and open, at 1 point = 1 Nex) — exactly as shown on the Standings' Season 2026 window. Points accrue over Weeks 1–18; trading P&L accrues over the 2026 league year (from February 15, 2026). The race CLOSES at the first daily score snapshot (11:00 UTC) after the final Week 18 game settles — the standings at that instant are final for the contest.
The pool is determined by the number of ACTIVATED managers (free accounts that roster at least 10 players) reached by the end of the contest period: 250 → $500; 500 → $1,000; 1,000 → $2,000. The final pool is the highest tier reached. If no tier is reached, no prize pool is awarded.
The unlocked pool splits 60% to referrers and 40% to the season's Total Return champion. Of the referrer share, a Builders' share (60%) is divided PRO-RATA by activated-referral count among every manager with at least 3 activated referrals, and a Top Recruiter bonus (40%) goes to the three managers with the most activated referrals (50% / 30% / 20% to #1 / #2 / #3). The Total Return share goes to the single manager ranked #1 on the Standings' Season 2026 window at the contest close (Rule 4) — first place in points plus trading, not best ball alone. You must hold at least one player at the close to be ranked (the Standings' standing eligibility rule). Ties break by most Weekly Winner crowns, then highest single-week total. A referral counts only when the referred person is a distinct, phone-verified human who rosters at least 10 players.
Winners are determined after Week 18 stats finalize (on or after February 1, 2027). The platform contacts winners directly to confirm results and arrange payment via Venmo, PayPal, or a comparable service. To claim, a winner must verify identity and eligibility and complete an IRS Form W-9 within fourteen (14) days; for any prize of $600 or more the Sponsor issues a Form 1099-MISC and the winner is responsible for taxes. Prizes are personal gifts from the Sponsor, not an obligation of the platform.
Before any prize is awarded, the Sponsor reviews the leading accounts' full history (referrals, acquisitions, lineups, ownership timeline, and any related or linked accounts) to confirm no cheating occurred. The Sponsor may disqualify anyone who uses multiple or fake accounts, self-refers, uses bots or automation, exploits a bug, or otherwise manipulates referrals, scoring, or standings. The Sponsor's determination of all standings is final.
Winners consent to the public announcement of their Dynasty Nexus username (displayed verbatim). No other personal information is published.
The contest is provided “as is.” If it cannot run as intended (e.g., the NFL season is materially shortened, or fraud or a technical failure corrupts its integrity), the Sponsor may modify, suspend, or cancel it. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Sponsor's liability is limited to awarding the prize pool described.
Entry is free and outcomes are determined by skill and effort (sharing, best-ball roster construction, and market judgment on the in-app consensus market, whose currency is free and has no cash value), so this is not a lottery, sweepstakes of chance, or gambling. No consideration is required or accepted.
Governed by the laws of the State of Rhode Island, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles; disputes resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts in Providence County, Rhode Island. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
