BTC vs ETH — I Chose Team BTC
I joined Team BTC on Gate, and this event is more interesting than a normal trading campaign because the competition is built around the combined Futures trading volume of two communities: BTC vs ETH.
Gate’s official event is running from September 10 to September 24, 2026, 09:00 UTC. Every participant chooses only one side: Team A = BTC or Team B = ETH. After joining, trading the designated token Futures contributes to that team’s total trading volume.
When I checked the event screen, the displayed numbers were:
Team BTC: 153.44M
Team ETH: 479.08M
That means ETH had the stronger volume lead at the time I checked. But I wouldn't call that the final result because the competition is still running, and the leaderboard can change as more traders participate.
The headline prize pool is up to $30,000 in AAPL stock equivalent. The main team battle can unlock up to $20,000, with the winning team sharing the unlocked pool according to eligible members' designated-token Futures trading volume.
There are also separate opportunities. New users who register during the event and complete at least $5,000 in the designated Futures trading can qualify for $5 in AAPL stock equivalent, subject to the event's first-come, first-served pool.
Another part I find interesting is the Trading Star reward. Even if your team doesn't win, eligible participants who complete at least $1,000 of their team's designated Futures trading can share a separate $5,000 AAPL stock equivalent pool, with an individual maximum of $100.
But there is one thing I would not ignore: trading volume should not become an excuse for unnecessary leverage or overtrading. Gate defines event volume as buy volume plus sell volume, and the campaign specifically prohibits practices such as self-trading, wash trading and other forms of manipulation. KYC must also be completed before the event ends to receive rewards.
I joined Team BTC, so now I'm watching one thing closely:
Can BTC close the volume gap before September 24?
This is no longer just BTC vs ETH on the chart.
It's BTC vs ETH on the leaderboard.
