Event Details
Event 1: First-Order Shield - 100% Loss Subsidy
During the event, wallet addresses that have never traded Perps on Gate DEX will receive a 100% subsidy if their first contract order results in a loss, up to 10 USDT per user. Total prize pool: 5,000 USDT, first-come, first-served, while supplies last.
Event 2: Old Friends Call, Earn 8 USDT Weekly
During the event, wallet addresses whose last Perps trade was 7 or more days before the event start, who complete at least 4 contract trades per week with a single-trade value ≥20,000 USDT, can earn 8 USDT per week. Limited to the first 100 users per week, first-come, first-served, while supplies last.
Event 3: Perps Volume Challenge, Earn Up to 60 USDT
Users must meet both the cumulative contract trading volume threshold and the valid order count requirement for a given tier to receive that tier's reward. Users may only receive the reward for the highest tier they achieve — rewards do not stack across tiers. Tiers are awarded in the order users meet both conditions, on a first-come, first-served basis. If a user reaches a tier's requirements but that tier's slots are full, the reward is deferred to the next tier with available slots.

Event Rules
- During the event, users may trade any contract pair. Net perp trading volume = opening trade volume + closing trade volume.
- Whether a user has "previously traded perpetual contracts" is determined as of the official announcement time. Event 2's data statistics cycle runs from the event's first day, rolling into the following week, i.e., Thursday 00:00 to the following Wednesday 23:59 (UTC+8).
- Valid order count refers to the total number of opening and closing orders that comply with the event rules; both the contract volume threshold and valid order count must be met to receive the corresponding reward. Each participating address in Event 3 may only receive the reward for the highest tier achieved, not multiple tiers.
- Rewards for Events 1, 2, and 3 will all be distributed as contract trial funds to users' accounts within 7 business days after the event ends. Between Events 1 and 3, users receive whichever reward is higher; between Events 2 and 3, users receive whichever reward is higher.
- If there is any discrepancy between the translated version and the English version, the English version shall prevail.
- Market makers, institutional, and agency accounts are not eligible for event rewards.
- Users participating in multiple Gate DEX events during the same period will receive only one airdrop reward, based on the highest-value reward; rewards cannot be claimed multiple times.
- Gate DEX reserves the right to disqualify any participant engaging in fraud, manipulation, or deceptive conduct, including but not limited to wash trading, improper order matching, bulk account registration, or other abnormal means of participation. Any suspected fraud, self-trading, wash trading, matched trading, or market manipulation will result in disqualification and forfeiture of the airdrop.
- Gate DEX reserves the right of final interpretation of this event.
- Risk warning: Digital asset trading is affected by market, regulatory, and other factors, and is subject to significant volatility; price movements are difficult to predict. Please pay close attention to market risk and trade cautiously. For more trading information, please refer to the Gate Perp Dex user guide.
