Prop firms

How much of the profit do crypto prop firms let a trader keep?

Fourteen of 23 crypto prop firms list a profit split of 90% or more on at least one plan.

Crypto prop firms let a funded trader keep 60% to 100% of the profit on each payout, a share called the profit split. Across the 23 firms in our tables, more than the split figures do.

Eight perp prop firms changed a page overnight to Nov. 13. Crypto Fund Trader's terms added: "The Weekly Scholarship Request, Daily Drawdown 6% and Maximum Drawdown 12% AddOns are not available for 1-Step evaluations." FundedNext's rules page added a $20 entry point on a funded account, which the firm calls the lowest it has ever offered." Pages also changed at For Traders, Kraken Prop, Kraken Funded, HyroTrader, Breakout and CoinProp.

What profit split do crypto prop firms pay?

Eighty per cent to the trader is the common starting point, and fourteen of the 23 firms publishing a split list . The higher figure always comes with a condition, a plan or a number of payouts, and the condition is in the firm's own wording below.

What it means in dollars

, a 5% month is $500 of profit: $400 to the trader at an 80% split, $450 at 90%. On a $100,000 account the same month is $5,000, and the gap between those two splits is $500 on every payout that size.

Against that, in our tables costs $85. A single $400 payout covers it four times over, once the account has passed and been funded.

In the firms' own words

Hypernova's rules page puts it this way: "You keep 80% of all profits generated on your funded account, or 90% if the assessment was purchased with the 90% profit split."

Upscale writes: "A split is the strictest scenario: it changes the instrument's price and scale, which is why pending orders are cancelled as well."

What is a profit split at a prop firm?

It is the share of a funded account's profit that the trader keeps when a payout is made, and the firm keeps the rest. It is , so the payout terms decide when you see it and how much has to build up first.

Why it matters

A split is paid only on profit that has been made and requested. The useful comparison is dollars per payout on the plan being bought, with the conditions on the higher figure applied.

Read the split beside the payout terms. A higher split paid after a long first wait and a high minimum can return less in a given month than a lower one paid on demand.

Where a firm reaches 90% or more, check how. Some step the split up after a run of payouts, and some sell the higher split as an add-on at checkout. Both are real, and they cost different things.

The split applies to the funded account. Profit made while you are being evaluated is usually not paid out, which is why the fee refund question gets its own table in this series.

What to watch

The count to watch is fourteen of 23: the firms listing 90% or more on some plan. A firm adding a higher tier, or a condition to an existing one, would show on our changes page the morning it happens. Tomorrow the comparison turns to leverage caps.

How perps work
  • A perp (perpetual future) is a contract that tracks a price with no expiry date, so a trader can hold a bet that it rises (long) or falls (short) for as long as they like.
  • Funding is a small payment between the two sides on a schedule (every hour on some venues, every eight hours on others): when the perp trades above the price it tracks, longs pay shorts, and when it trades below, shorts pay longs.
  • Open interest is the value of all positions still open. Every long has a short on the other side, so it is one net figure, not a count of buyers or sellers.
  • Leverage lets a trader control a position larger than their deposit, up to a cap the venue sets for each market, such as 20x.
  • Liquidation is the venue closing all or part of a position when the equity supporting it falls below the required maintenance margin. The trigger depends on the venue's rules, collateral, other positions sharing that collateral, fees and funding. A leverage setting alone does not determine the liquidation price.
  • What the price follows is the venue's choice: each venue decides which index or contract its perp tracks, so two venues' "oil" or "gold" perps can follow different things.
