Gate Exchange $USD1 Holding Income Campaign

1. Core Campaign: Limited-time High-Interest for Holding #持有USD1即享收益 (up to 20% annualized)

- Participation requirement: Hold at least 1 USD1 to participate. No manual subscription required, no lock-up, and it does not affect normal trading or withdrawals.

- Interest calculation scope: Trading accounts under the unified account; spot/perpetual/settlement/options account balances of classic accounts; USD1 in wealth management accounts is not included.

- Interest calculation rules: The system takes hourly snapshots to calculate average daily holdings, and payouts are made the next day. The annualized interest rate is dynamically adjusted daily based on total holdings and the reward budget, with the latest rate announced daily at 14:00.

- Quota limits: A maximum yield-bearing holding limit is set per single account. Amounts exceeding the limit will no longer earn interest.

2. Supporting Campaign: Flash Swap Achievement Rewards & Reward Sharing

- Campaign period: 2026-06-10 18:00 — 2026-06-24 18:00

- Rules: Use the flash swap function to exchange assets such as USDT/USDC into USD1. When your cumulative net purchases reach the corresponding tiers, you can claim a fixed USD1 reward. An additional reward is also provided based on the exchange volume leaderboard. Spots are limited and first-come, first-served.

II. Key Use Cases of USD1

USD1 is a compliant US dollar stablecoin issued by World Liberty Financial (WLFI) under Trump. It is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar. The underlying reserves are short-term US Treasury bonds plus cash equivalents, custodized by BitGo and subject to periodic third-party audits. Key use cases:

1. Trading settlement: Can be used for pricing and settlement of exchange spot and derivatives contracts. In the DeFi ecosystem, it covers scenarios such as LP market making, lending, and large-scale commodity perpetual contracts. Some platforms may use it as their exclusive settlement asset.

2. Passive wealth management: Supports holding interest on coins held on exchanges, as well as on-chain DeFi staking and lending. The project positions USD1 as a “yield-generating stablecoin,” allowing holders to continuously earn returns simply by holding.

3. Institutional / cross-border settlement: Primarily targets institutional and sovereign fund scenarios. It can serve as a compliant settlement tool for large-scale crypto investments, enabling low-cost cross-border fund transfers.

4. Safe-haven store of value: Full-reserve model plus compliance-based endorsement. As a stable safe-haven asset in the crypto market, it helps hedge against the risk of market fluctuations.

III. Market Outlook Analysis

Core Advantages

1. Compliance trust barriers: Tied to US political and business resources, with a focus on institutional-grade compliance. Against the backdrop of tightening global crypto regulation, it is more suitable for the compliance needs of large institutional funds.

2. Rapid ecosystem expansion: Quickly launched on leading exchanges and rolled out to differentiated scenarios such as DeFi, large-scale commodity settlement, and AI Agent settlement. Multi-chain deployment covers major public chains including Ethereum, BNB Chain, and TRON.

3. Sufficient capital reserves: Two rounds of fundraising totaling $550 million, which can rapidly boost market share through liquidity subsidies and ecosystem partnerships.

Risks and Shortcomings

1. Hard to break through the existing market structure: USDT and USDC account for more than 90% of the stablecoin market. The gap in user usage habits and ecosystem depth is huge, making it difficult to challenge top positions in the short term.

2. Political linkage risk: Strongly tied to the Trump family. Changes in the US political landscape could directly affect the project’s stability and compliance.

3. High yield as a short-term subsidy: The current 20% annualized rate is part of a limited-time user acquisition promotion. Long-term returns will return to normal market levels.
