$GT So Gate is launching a GT promotion, which is actually very straightforward. The entire event revolves around two parallel tracks: holding and trading, with a total prize pool of 2,500 GT.

The first part is the simplest. During the event, for every 10 GT increase in your net holdings, you will receive an airdrop of 0.1 GT. The cap per person is 5 GT, and the total pool for this part is 500 GT. The catch is that it is distributed on a first-come, first-served basis according to who increases their holdings the most, so if you plan to add more, acting early gives you a better chance.

The second part gets interesting. You can earn GT holding bonuses by completing trading tasks, and these bonuses are stackable. The tasks are tiered by trading volume. For futures, reaching 30,000 USDT gives a 5% bonus, 300,000 gives 10%, and 3 million gives 15%. For CFD, the thresholds are 50,000, 500,000, and 5 million USDT, corresponding to the same 5%, 10%, and 15% bonuses. The key is that you can get both futures and CFD bonuses at the same time, so if you trade enough in both, your effective GT holdings could get a 30% boost.

At the end of the event, they will take a snapshot of your GT holdings and apply all the bonuses you have earned to calculate your weighted share in the 2,000 GT pool. The more GT you hold and the more stacked bonuses you have, the larger your share.

Here is some background that makes this event more interesting. GT has just completed its on-chain burn for Q2 2026, with over 2.57 million GT burned, worth approximately $17.75 million. Since 2019, nearly 190 million GT have been burned, reducing the total supply from the initial 300 million by over 63%. This is a significant deflationary mechanism, closely tied to the actual usage of GT as the gas token for Gate Chain applications such as Gate Perp DEX and Gate Swap.

Additionally, if you are looking for yield, Gate's GUSD product offers a base yield of 3.8%, and combined with Launchpool staking, the total APY can reach 6.38%. For new users, there is even a limited-time promotion that can push the yield to 100% or higher.

A few things to keep in mind. You need to click the "Join Now" button to register and complete identity verification before the event ends. Rewards are all distributed in GT and will be allocated within 14 working days after the event ends. Also, sub-accounts and institutional accounts are not eligible, so make sure you use your main account.

If you are already trading futures or CFD, this is essentially free GT on top of your regular activity. Just make sure to register and consider accumulating GT in advance to secure a spot in the airdrop pool.
