# What is USDC Bonus?

In trading events, the USDC Bonus is equivalent to USDC and can be used for trading in **Market Battle** and **Trend Trade**. 

If you profit, the profit you earn is real USDC, which will be settled and credited to your wallet instantly. The USDC Bonus used for placing the trade will be recycled and burned. 

You can then use your earnings to trade perpetuals for higher returns.
