you are new to Gate Event Contracts and feeling a bit lost, this post is for you.
A lot of beginners see the Points Leaderboard and think it is only for big traders. That’s not true. Anyone can start and slowly climb if they understand the basics.
Here’s a simple step-by-step guide for newcomers:
Make sure your Gate account is fully verified.
Go to the Event Contracts section.
Start with small amounts. You don’t need big capital.
Focus on the markets marked with “2x” because you earn Scratch Cards faster there (1 card every 10 USDT instead of 20 USDT).
After trading, check your Scratch Cards and scratch them to get Event Points.
Those points automatically count toward the weekly Points LeaderboardImportant tips for beginners:
