Event 1: Trading Arena — Long & Short King Ranking Challenge
During the event, all profitable closed trades on Gate Perp DEX will be recorded to calculate your “Long-Short Score”, the core metric of this competition. All rankings and rewards are based on this score.
1. Long-Short Score Rules
- Score Per Trade = Net Profit (USDT) × Direction Coefficient
- Long profit: Direction Coefficient = +1
- Short profit: Direction Coefficient = –1
- A user’s total score is the sum of all profitable trade scores during the event.
- Users with a positive total score (> 0) are classified as Net Long Gainers, and users with a negative total score (< 0) are classified as Net Short Gainers.

Event 2: Invite & Earn — Boost Rewards Together
You may claim a personal referral link from the event page and invite friends to join. A referral is considered a valid referral when the friend joins this event via your link and completes at least 1 profitable trade. For each valid referral, you will receive 5 USDT. If you successfully invite 5 qualified users, you will receive an additional 25 USDT!
Additionally, an Invitation Leaderboard will be set up. The top 10 users with the highest number of valid referrals will each receive an extra 60 USDT in rewards.
Event Rules:
- Participants must click the [Join Now] button on the event page to register for the event and complete identity verification to receive rewards.
- To ensure fairness, the number of wallets linked to a single IP is strictly monitored. Any abnormal multiple-account activity will be considered a violation, and result in disqualification.
- All airdrop rewards will be distributed within 14 working days after the event ends.
- Net Futures Trading Volume = Open Position Volume + Close Position Volume
- USDT airdrops from different event tasks can be combined.
- In the trading ranking challenge, if none of the participants meet the minimum individual futures trading volume requirement, the corresponding airdrop rewards will not be distributed. Those who meet the minimum trading volume requirement will be ranked based on the order they reach the criteria, and they will receive the reward spots in sequence.
- Please note that the rankings displayed on the real-time leaderboard do not filter out participants who haven’t met the minimum trading volume requirement and therefore do not represent the final results. Final rewards will be distributed based on the verified list of eligible winners.
- “New users” under the same identity verification are not allowed to create multiple wallet accounts to join the event. Existing wallet accounts that are canceled and then sign up again will also not be regarded as “new users”.
- Gate reserves the right to disqualify any participant who is deemed to be involved in fraudulent, manipulative, or deceptive conduct, including but not limited to wash trading, improper order matching, bulk account registration, or any other dishonest behaviors. Engaging in fraudulent actions, such as self-trading, wash trading, coordinated trading, market manipulation, or any other type of illegal trading, will result in disqualification from the event and forfeiture of airdrop eligibility.
- Users participating in multiple activities during the same period will receive only the highest-value airdrop. The platform reserves the right to the final interpretation of these terms.
- In case of any discrepancies between the translated version and the English version, the English version shall prevail.
- Risk Warning: Cryptocurrency trading is subject to various factors, including market conditions and policies. The market is highly volatile, and price is unpredictable. Please be aware of market risks and trade with caution. For more trading information, please refer to the Gate Perp DEX Trading Guide .
