# Battles

Engage in thrilling 1v1 or group trading Battles on DegenFi, competing for prize pools based on trading performance.

**Battles Overview**\
Battles are competitive trading events where participants deposit SOL into a prize pool, and winners are determined by trading outcomes like PNL.

**1v1 Battles**

* **Setup**: Two traders deposit equal amounts (e.g., 1 SOL each) into the prize pool.
* **Winner**: The trader with the highest PNL at the end of the battle takes the entire prize pool.
* **Duration**: Battles run on customizable timeframes, set by the organizer (default: hourly).

**Group Battles**

* **Custom Contests**: Anyone can create a trading contest with multiple participants, setting their own prize pool and rules.
* **Winning Conditions.** Choose from:
  * **Winner-Takes-All**: Top trader claims the entire prize pool.
  * **Top 3 Split**: Prize pool split among the top three traders.
  * **Proportional Split**: Prize distributed based on each trader’s PNL percentage.
