@AnimeshFX25 Documents a $5,050 Topstep Payout on X
Trader @AnimeshFX25 published proof on X of a $5,050 payout from Topstep, attaching a media file and crediting the Chicago-based futures prop firm. The post is dated Friday, May 22, with the payout approval recorded in May 2026.
The receipt is straightforward. In a post on X, @AnimeshFX25 wrote, "$5050 payout received today," tagging @Topstep and attaching a media file that accompanies the claim. The disclosed figure is $5,050, the platform of record is X, and the approval window aligns with May 2026. No account size, instrument, or trade duration appears in the post itself.
Context matters for a number like this. Topstep, founded in Chicago in 2012, routes its funded traders into CME Group futures and operates a per-payout cap that the firm reports at $6,000 per request, with lower tiers on its newer no-activation-fee combines. A single $5,050 withdrawal therefore sits within Topstep's stated ceiling, consistent with one approved request rather than a multi-payout aggregate.
“$5050 payout received today. From losses and self doubt to consistency and discipline.”— @AnimeshFX25 on X
The firm also reports a 90/10 profit split, with accounts opened before January 2026 keeping 100% of their first $10,000 in profits under a grandfathered arrangement. The post does not specify which account configuration produced this payout, so the underlying split that applied to @AnimeshFX25's balance is not established by the evidence on view.
What the proof does not show is equally worth stating. There is no visible account size, no instrument breakdown, no equity curve, and no indication of how long the funded account was active before the withdrawal. The post documents a payout event; it does not document a strategy, a win rate, or a time to funding.
Taken on its own terms, the receipt is a narrow, dated data point: one trader, one firm, one disclosed amount, posted publicly and tied to a tagged account. For readers tracking which futures prop firms continue to release capital to traders in 2026, that is the value of the record, and also its limit.
