#EventContractsLive As derivatives in digital assets rapidly evolve, investors are seeking simpler, more transparent, and low-friction tools. While traditional futures contracts offer deep liquidity, they are hampered by complex collateral management, liquidation accounts, and variable funding rates. Gate Event Contracts step in, offering a simplified structure for short-term directional predictions.

At the heart of this structure is institutional-level oracle data and an ultra-low entry threshold.

🔹 Supported assets: BTC, ETH, and major cryptocurrencies, high directional accuracy in the most liquid assets
🔹 Minimum entry only 1.5 USDT, low barrier for testing short-term ideas
🔹 Trading cycles: 5, 15, 60, and 240 minutes, suitable for both scalp and news-driven trading
🔹 Settlement via Chainlink price feeds, decentralized and automated settlement, no human intervention
🔹 Position management: manual closing or automated settlement, flexibility to lock in profits early or wait until expiration

Three key features:

🔹 Zero margin and no leverage friction
While traditional margin trading requires constant margin monitoring, Event Contracts completely eliminates leverage. The investor only predicts whether the price will go up or down within their chosen timeframe, and the risk is limited to the initial amount.

🔹 Chainlink oracle integration
In short-term prediction markets, settlement integrity is the most critical point. With Chainlink's decentralized oracle network, the price at expiry is determined by externally collected and unmanipulated data. This ensures each cycle is transparent, automated, and verifiable.

🔹 Flexible timeframe and 24/7 access
Intraday volatility generally increases around macroeconomic data, economic announcements, or technical breakouts. With cycles ranging from 5 minutes to 240 minutes and 24/7 uninterrupted access, investors can adjust their position duration according to the market's rhythm. Whether scalping on micro-movements or confirming trends over several hours.

This area can be accessed directly by going to the Contracts section in the Gate app or web interface and navigating to the Event Contracts tab.

Whether hedging a spot position during a news event or profiting from short-term momentum, Gate Event Contracts offers a transparent and accessible space for the modern crypto investor with a low entry threshold and verifiable consensus infrastructure.
