Current Prize Purse:

Once again Rogue is offering a progressive prize purse named the “Iron Games Athlete Fund”. Rogue has provided a 1.25 million dollar investment as the starter contribution. That starting purse is locked in and is the guaranteed minimum value. $275,000 of this is held in Bitcoin purchased at $30,000.00 per coin.

Any growth on this coin will add to the purse and will be paid out at the valuation at the time the prize purse is locked. Finally, $5.00 of every attendee ticket package sold will be added to the purse. Tickets are available for purchase now. The prize purse will be used to pay out both the CrossFit and Strongman competitors.
