How It Works & Challenge Rules

Effective Date: September 5, 2026

The rules of the Ditchthem competitive arena.

012× Power-of-Two Bidding

Every empty board starts at $1.

Take #1 by doubling the current stake:

$1→$2→$4→$8→$16→$32...

There is no maximum stake and no expiration in the current rules.

02100% Past Credit

Already on a board?

Your previous confirmed stake counts toward your next position. You pay only the difference required to reach the new target.

03Ranks Move & Top-3 Visibility

When a new #1 is confirmed, the previous #1 moves to #2, #2 moves to #3, and the previous #3 leaves the active Top 3 (hidden from public view, while retaining 100% credit to reclaim).

04One Active Position Per Board

A product can compete on multiple battleboards, but holds only one active position on each individual board.

05Stake Determines Rank

Rank is determined by confirmed stake under Ditchthem's published rules.

A higher position is not an endorsement, quality certification, or claim that one product is objectively better than another.

06Confirmed Challenges

Pending, failed, cancelled, or otherwise unconfirmed payments do not create confirmed ranking positions.

07Traffic Is Not Guaranteed

Ditchthem provides competitive placement and exposure.

Clicks, traffic, customers, conversions, or business results are not guaranteed.

08No Manipulation & Acceptable Use

Attempts to create fraudulent accounts, manipulate clicks or rankings, misuse payment methods, collude to circumvent rules, or abuse the platform may result in suspension, removal, or reversal of activity.

Ditchthem may reject or remove content that is unlawful, deceptive, abusive, or infringes third-party rights.

You must be legally capable of entering a binding agreement in your jurisdiction.
