As 2025 draws to a close, market volatility hasn’t stopped trading platforms from delivering value to their users. As one of the industry’s leading platforms, Gate launched a series of limited-time events in December, covering wealth management, airdrops, trading challenges, and interactive experiences.
Whether you’re a user seeking steady returns or a trader aiming for airdrop rewards, Gate’s current lineup of activities offers opportunities for everyone. Understanding the rules and potential rewards of each event is key to making informed participation decisions.
01 Contract Points Airdrop: Low-Barrier Access to New Token Distribution
Gate’s contract points airdrop is a regular channel for users to obtain new tokens. According to on-chain data, the 39th FHE airdrop event has concluded, with single-ticket earnings exceeding $38.
More recently, the 40th round of the public airdrop went live on December 11 at 10:00 UTC.
This round offers a total reward of 6,000,000 STABLE. Users holding at least 60 Gate contract points can claim 300 STABLE, consuming 10 points in the process. VIP 5 and above users receive an additional 300 STABLE after redemption.
With its relatively low participation threshold, this event is ideal for users who hold some contract points and want to acquire new tokens at minimal cost.
02 Earn+ High-Yield Wealth Management: Steady Growth for Major Assets
For users who prefer stable returns, Gate’s Earn+ product launched high-yield fixed-term wealth management for major cryptocurrencies in December.
The event features a "base yield + extra reward" model that significantly boosts short-term returns.
Specifically, the 7-day fixed-term BTC product offers a 10% annualized bonus, bringing the total annualized yield up to 10.28%. The 7-day fixed-term ETH product also provides a 10% bonus, with a maximum annualized yield of 11.9%.
Extra rewards are distributed daily in the form of RLS tokens (for BTC products) or NESS tokens (for ETH products). Users should note that the reward pool is limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.
03 Winter-Themed Challenge: Fun Meets Physical Rewards
Beyond financial returns, Gate is offering engaging activities with physical prizes. The "Winter Ski Challenge" ends on December 9 at 08:00 UTC. During the event, users can compete for different tiers of Burton professional ski gear based on their net deposits and the 30-day average increase in Earn+ holdings.
Rewards range from Burton ski jackets to full sets including snowboard, jacket, pants, boots, and helmet. Users may also opt to receive the equivalent value in USDT, with the top-tier Burton gear valued at 2,250 USDT.
04 Innovative Interactions and Staking Events: Expanding Earning Opportunities
Gate has also rolled out several unique events in December, enriching both earning potential and user experience.
The new Watch-to-Earn event has virtually no barriers to entry. By watching livestreams, posting comments, or reserving upcoming broadcasts, users can win exclusive merchandise like gold bars, Christmas gift boxes, insulated cups, as well as GT token rewards and trading fee rebate vouchers.
Meanwhile, Launchpool round 345 started on December 8. Users can stake BTC, GT, or STABLE to share in a 4,000,000 STABLE reward pool. Rewards are distributed hourly and support 100% instant unlocking.
Note that the BTC staking pool has a quota based on total trading volume over the past 60 days. Users with less than $60,000 in trading volume cannot participate.
05 Platform-Wide Event Matrix: Meeting Diverse Needs
In addition to the featured events above, Gate has recently launched a series of limited-time benefits across different scenarios, forming a comprehensive year-end event matrix.
For example, the "Volatility Survival Guide" event includes recurring investment plans, fixed-term Earn+, airdrops, and contract trading, providing users with multiple tools for navigating choppy markets.
The special "Thanksgiving Feedback Season" allows users to enter daily challenges for a chance to win high-end prizes like the iPhone 17 and MacBook Air.
For new users, Gate offers highly attractive exclusive high-yield benefits. First-time Earn+ users can access a 3-day USDT wealth management product with up to 200% annualized yield.
06 How to Choose and Participate: Activity Strategies Based on Your Needs
Faced with a wealth of options, users should select activities based on their capital, risk appetite, and investment goals.
- For steady interest and airdrops: Prioritize BTC/ETH high-yield fixed-term Earn+ products and watch for the latest contract points airdrop.
- For idle major assets: Explore Launchpool staking events to earn extra rewards while holding your assets.
- For low barriers and fun: Watch-to-Earn and the nearly finished Ski Challenge are great choices.
- For new and VIP users: New users should focus on exclusive high-yield products, while VIPs can look out for special benefits like the Contract Points Airdrop Carnival.
Before joining any event, always read the official rules carefully. Understand how rewards are distributed, lock-up periods, eligibility restrictions (such as region or VIP level), and be fully aware of the risks associated with crypto market volatility.
Looking Ahead
As of December 11, the Ski Challenge on Gate is entering its final stage, the 40th contract points airdrop has just begun, and the high-yield BTC and ETH wealth management reward pools are still active.
Within the wealth management section of Gate’s app or website, an efficient capital management strategy is taking shape: users can deposit major assets into Earn+ for bonus yields, redeem contract points for airdrops, and join interactive events to win physical prizes.
These opportunities are fleeting, but they offer users multiple avenues to enhance their year-end asset growth plans.
