#StakeOnLaunchpoolToShare450KVLX
Gate Launchpool #386: Earn a Share of 454,546 VLX by Staking BTC, ETH or VLX
Gate has introduced Launchpool Round 386, featuring ValueX (VLX), giving users an opportunity to earn newly distributed tokens by staking their existing crypto assets.
The campaign offers a total reward pool of 454,546 VLX, with an estimated annualized yield of up to 47.40%. One of its interesting features is that participants can choose between three different staking pools, depending on the assets they already hold.
Three Staking Pools, One Reward Opportunity
Participants can select from the following pools:
- BTC Pool: 181,818 VLX in total rewards.
- ETH Pool: 181,818 VLX in total rewards.
- VLX Pool: 90,910 VLX in total rewards.
Each pool has a separate reward allocation. Your share of rewards depends on your eligible staked amount relative to the other participants in that pool.
A New Upgrade to BTC and ETH Staking Limits
One important improvement in this Launchpool round is Gate's dynamic staking-limit mechanism.
Instead of having a fixed staking limit for BTC and ETH, eligible users can unlock additional staking capacity based on their net deposits.
The mechanism follows a 1:1 ratio. For example, depositing 0.1 ETH as a net deposit can unlock a 0.1 ETH staking limit.
Higher eligible net deposits can unlock higher staking limits. Both on-chain deposits and withdrawals, as well as deposit-code transactions, are included in the net deposit calculation.
This feature connects available staking capacity with users' actual net deposit activity.
Hourly Rewards and Early Staking
Another useful feature is automatic hourly reward distribution. Eligible earnings are credited directly to users' spot accounts every hour.
Gate also supports advance staking, allowing participants to stake before the mining period officially begins. This means they can start earning as soon as the event opens.
Understanding the ValueX Project
ValueX (VLX) is an EVM-compatible blockchain infrastructure built on Avalanche, targeting the Web3 carbon economy.
Its ecosystem focuses on connecting real-world environmental activities with blockchain-based measurement, reporting, and verification.
Potential applications include renewable energy, reforestation, and maritime shipping. The goal is to improve transparency and traceability in environmental data and carbon-credit-related activities.
This gives the VLX project a use case beyond simply distributing a new token through an exchange campaign.
Campaign Schedule
Start: November 7, 2026, at 19:00 (UTC+8).
End: November 21, 2026, at 19:00 (UTC+8).
Total duration: 14 days.
How to Participate
1. Log in to your Gate account and complete identity verification.
2. Open the Launchpool section.
3. Select the VLX Launchpool #386 campaign.
4. Choose BTC, ETH, or VLX as your staking asset.
5. Complete any required net deposit to unlock your BTC or ETH staking capacity.
6. Confirm your staking participation and monitor your hourly rewards.
Important Things to Understand Before Staking
The advertised 47.40% annualized yield is an estimate, not a guaranteed return. Actual earnings can change depending on participation levels, staking amounts, reward limits, and campaign conditions.
Remember that rewards are distributed in VLX, whose market price can fluctuate. A higher number of reward tokens does not automatically mean a higher value in USDT.
Participants should also review the redemption rules, eligibility requirements, and regional restrictions before committing their assets. Borrowed funds, institutional accounts, and subaccounts are not supported.

Dragonfly Official's Take
What makes this Launchpool round interesting is the combination of three staking options, hourly reward distribution, advance staking, and a dynamic deposit-based limit for BTC and ETH.
For existing crypto holders, it offers another way to explore token reward opportunities without directly purchasing VLX. However, choosing a pool should depend on your existing holdings, risk tolerance, and understanding of the reward mechanism.
