Hive World Cup 2026 - join us

After several Bundesliga tipping seasons on Kicktipp, I am thinking about organizing a traditional FIFA World Cup 2026 prediction game for the Hive community.

This would run in parallel to other awesome football projects already existing on Hive and is NOT meant as competition to them. Ideally people simply enjoy both 🙂

⚽ What is this?

A classic football prediction game hosted on Kicktipp:
👉 predict World Cup match results
👉 climb the leaderboard
👉 answer a few bonus questions
👉 compete with the Hive football community

The platform is available in English:
https://www.kicktipp.com/hive-world-cup-2026/

Gladly some already joined:

🏆 How does scoring work?

Points are awarded automatically by Kicktipp for:

• exact scores
• correct goal difference
• correct tendency (win/draw/loss)

Additionally there are a few bonus questions:

• Who becomes World Champion?
• Which team produces the tournament top scorer?
• Which teams reach the semi-finals?

These bonus points are automatically added to the overall leaderboard.

🌟 Matchday Winners

Each tournament phase / matchday also has its own ranking and winner automatically handled via Kicktipp.

This keeps the competition interesting throughout the entire World Cup and not only at the end.

💰 Prize Pool & Sponsors

At the moment there is NO finalized prize pool yet.

I do NOT plan to finance the entire tournament prize structure alone this time 🙂
Hence this post is also a call for:

• sponsors
• delegators
• community support
• ideas for fair reward structures

Possible rewards could include:

• overall winner prizes
• top 3 / top 5 rewards
• matchday winner prizes
• random community prizes

Most likely rewards would be paid in:

• HIVE
• HBD
• potentially Hive-engine tokens if sponsors want to contribute such as Medals maybe :-)? @niallon11 @blanchy

🎯 Goal

Simple:
have fun together during the World Cup and build another active Hive football event around the tournament.

⚽ Interested?

Let me know in the comments:

• if you want to participate
• if you would sponsor
• if you have ideas for the prize pool structure

And yes:
trash talk during the tournament is officially allowed 😄

My offer - 375 Hive

What i will offer is paying prize in Hive for the overall Top 5:

• 125 Hive for No. 1
• 100 Hive for No. 2
• 75 Hive for No. 3
• 50 Hive for No. 4
• 25 Hive for No. 5

Let me know if you wanna join and sponsor as well for e.g. matchday winners? If I get feedback I will send a full rule description once we decided all. If anyoe knows one of the big guns here that might support as spnosr let me know :-).

Tagging the sports addicts.
