Stake Weekly Forum Challenges: January 12-19, 2026

Stake runs these forum challenges every week. You post your bet IDs to compete for cash prizes. The total prize pool is $29,000. It seems like a lot but split across everything.

Before entering any challenge, make sure you meet these requirements:

• Level 2 KYC verification or higher
• At least 10 posts on the Stake forum
• No multiple accounts (instant disqualification)
• Only stake.com or official mirror site accounts qualify

Prizes get sent as coupons through support. That happens within 72 hours after each one ends. All of them start January 12 at 1 PM UTC and go until January 19 at 1 PM UTC.

$3,000 Slots Forum Challenge – Legend of Odin

Stake’s new in-house slot from Sidequest Studios is the focus this week. Hit a 40x multiplier or higher with a minimum $0.20 bet and post your bet ID.

Prize breakdown:

• Top 20 multipliers: $50 each
• Everyone else splits the remaining $2,000 equally

40x does not sound too hard at first. But Stake’s games can be really volatile. You might go through a lot of your bankroll before you get it. And with $2,000 split among dozens of people, payouts per person end up small.

Important: Only post one bet ID. If you hit something better later, edit your original post instead of making a new one. Multiple posts get you disqualified.

$3,000 Royal Club of Originals – Tome of Life

A Stake original challenge with a 90x minimum multiplier requirement. The minimum is just 3 cents, making this the most accessible challenge of the week.

Prize structure:

• Base pool: $300
• Scales up based on participants (maxes at $3,000 with 500+ players)
• Everyone who qualifies splits the pool equally

For Tome of Life, 90x feels reasonable. With the low minimum you can spin a bunch without losing much. But if hundreds qualify, your share might be like $4 or $6. Not huge.

$9,000 Quest for Glory – VIP Originals

The biggest prize pool of the week goes to players competing on Scarab Spin. Minimum 50x multiplier with a $0.50 minimum bet.

Top prizes:

• 1st: $1,600
• 2nd: $1,000
• 3rd: $600
• 4th-5th: $400 and $300
• 6th-10th: $200 each
• 11th-20th: $110 each
• Everyone else splits $3,000

Scarab Spin is a low-volatility slot, so you’ll need plenty of spins to land that 50x. We recommend playing on 3-5 lines – it’s a sweet spot for hitting decent multis without spreading your bets across the lines.

$7,000 The Return of the King – VIP Slots

A challenge focused on third-party slots. Hit the highest multiplier you can with a 100x minimum and $0.20 minimum bet. Feature buys don’t count.

Top prizes:

• 1st: $1,200
• 2nd: $600
• 3rd: $400
• 4th-5th: $300 and $200
• 6th-10th: $140 each
• 11th-20th: $60 each
• Everyone else splits $3,000

You can pick any third party slot except Legend of Odin. No specific game. Ties go to higher average bets, then who posted first. No specific game restriction means you can play whatever suits you.

If you’re already spinning slots this week on Stake, don’t forget to post your best bet ID. You get prize for wins you would hit anyway.

$4,000+ Streak Rush January – Week 3

Hit a 600x multiplier on one of five selected slots with a $0.20 minimum bet. Keep hitting the target every week and your prizes increase.

This week’s eligible slots:

• Mechanical Clover
• Olympus Wins
• Shogun Skylord
• Looney Pop
• 88 Dragons Treasure

Week 3 prizes:

• Base prize: $30 for all winners (up to 200 players)
• If you won Week 2: Extra $20 bonus
• If you’ve won all three weeks: $30 base + $30 streak bonus = $60 total

The 600x target is steep. You’ll need luck or serious bankroll to hunt this consistently. Miss a week and your streak resets, so this is best for regular players who can commit to all four weeks of the month.

$2,000 Double Down – Week 11

This one requires two winning bets from two different slots. You’ll need to post both bet IDs from the eligible games list and add up your multipliers for a combined score. Minimum bet is $0.20 per spin.

Eligible slots:

• Lucky Panda
• 3 Pigs of Olympus Bonus Pot
• Greedy Alice
• Crypto Bonanza

Prizes:

• 1st place: $700
• 2nd place: $400
• 3rd place: $250
• 4th-5th: $150 and $100
• 6th-15th: $40 each

This challenge is highly competitive. Probably need over 1,000x on both to place well, and the prizes outside the top spot aren’t impressive enough to justify the grind. Unless you’re confident you can land top 3, effort seems high for reward.

$3,000 Perfect 10 – Sports Multi-Bet Challenge

This challenge is for sports bettors and requires a 10-leg parlay hitting at least 10x total odds with a $1 minimum stake. You can mix pre-match and live markets across any sports.

Prize structure:

• Base pool: $300
• Scales with participants (maxes at $3,000 with 200+ entries)
• Everyone who qualifies splits the pool equally
• Bonus: Hit 100x or higher and get an extra $50 on top of your share

The 10x minimum odds requirement means you can’t just stack heavy favorites. You’ll need a mix of reasonable picks that actually connect. The $50 bonus for 100x parlays is a nice touch, but realistically you’re looking at long odds to land that.

Which Challenges Are Worth Your Time?

Best for casual players: Royal Club of Originals has the lowest barrier to entry with its $0.03 minimum and 90x target on Tome of Life. The regular Slots Forum Challenge looks easy at 40x, but Legend of Odin’s high volatility means you could lose more than you’d win back.

Best for big players: Quest for Glory has the biggest individual prizes. The 50x minimum on Scarab Spin is doable with enough spins, though the low volatility means you’ll need patience. If you’re already playing third-party slots this week, The Return of the King is worth a post.

Best for sports bettors: Perfect 10 if you’re confident in building a 10-leg parlay. The $1 minimum makes it cheap to enter, though landing 10 correct picks is the real challenge.

Suggested Skips: Double Down and Streak Rush both demand serious bankroll with underwhelming prize-to-effort ratios.

The prizes aren’t great across the board, but if you’re looking to participate in some challenge anyway, Royal Club of Original, The Return of the King, and Perfect 10 offer the best effort-to-reward balance.
