Create Custom Challenges on Stake Using My Own Capital

[JoahTheron]

Hi everyone,

The title explains my main idea. I’d like to create a custom challenge on Stake and fund the prize pool myself using USDC.

Is this possible? For example, could I send the funds to one of the managers/admins and have them set up the challenge for me?

I’d appreciate any guidance on how this works. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I contacted support, and they told me I would need to be an affiliate to access this option. The issue is that I’m not a content creator and I don’t have an audience or viewers that would meet the affiliate requirements.

I’m simply interested in creating a custom challenge with my own funded prize pool in USDC. Is there any alternative way for regular users to do this, or is it strictly limited to affiliates only?

Thanks for clarifying.

If the support already replied and explained everything , I am afraid that is it.

Your idea of organizing a contest for Stake players and distributing prizes is great because Stake can't do it itself these days:)
