Fees set directly to zero—the trader’s abacus can finally stop clacking so loudly
In contract trading, fees are like air: they may seem insignificant, but they are everywhere. This is especially true for high-frequency traders. A single trade may not incur much cost, but after dozens or hundreds of trades a day, fees can quietly become a “profit-sharing partner.”
Therefore, Gate’s launch of zero maker fees for USD1 contracts is primarily notable for reducing trading friction.
For traders using limit orders, placing orders itself provides liquidity to the market. Reducing fees to zero is equiva

190k was the tuition fee I paid three months ago for chasing Q at 0.031. That day, it dumped 12% in 15 minutes. I got lucky and thought it would rebound, but it kept bleeding down to 0.019, and I sold at the bottom. Today it dropped another 23%, but this time I watched the chart until 3 a.m. and noticed a few things that were different.
First, the data: the current price is 0.0192, just 1% above the 24-hour low of 0.0191, with a trading volume of 9.4M—three times that of the previous two days. Massive volume on the sell-off, but the price did not make a new low, suggesting that large capital i

S&P 500 Surges Past 7800: Has Wall Street’s “Bull” Been Secretly Fed AI Fodder?
The S&P 500 broke above 7800 points for the first time. On the surface, this may look like the breach of a round-number threshold, but in reality it reflects a clear rebound in market risk appetite. On August 13, the index hit a record intraday high of 7816.70 points. Although it pulled back slightly afterward, it remained near its all-time high.
This rally first benefited from inflation data “playing along.” The U.S. July PPI showed virtually no month-on-month growth, significantly below market expectations, easin

0 fees for maker orders—has Gate written “farming freebies” into its trading rules?
Gate has launched 0-fee maker orders for USD1 contracts. At first glance, it may seem like just one less fee to pay, but for high-frequency traders, this change carries considerable weight. In the futures market, fees may look like mere digits after the decimal point, but with enough trades, they become a significant cost that cannot be overlooked. Especially for users engaged in market making, grid trading, quantitative strategies, and frequent position adjustments, trading costs themselves are the “invisible

At $$VVV 13.2360, I’m betting 0.5 ETH that it will touch 14.2 tonight before coming back. The 24-hour range is 14%, with $16.9M in trading volume—this isn’t retail activity; it’s whale position rotation. Don’t ask me why: after dumping to the 11.67 low, it instantly surged 12%—a classic accumulation tail.
My plan: enter with a small position at the current price of 13.2, stop-loss at 12.8, take half off at the first target of 14.2, and let the rest run toward 15.6. Keep the position below 30%; this coin’s volatility can either liquidate you or make you rich.
Note: if it breaks below 12.8 and f

🔥 THE NEW LAUNCHPOOL PLAYBOOK: HIGH APY MEETS REAL YIELD
Gate Launchpool Issue 370 highlights an important evolution in crypto yield strategies: instead of relying on a single reward mechanism, users can access different return profiles within the same ecosystem.
From August 10 to August 24, the campaign features a 1,410,000 $DOS reward pool, while the $GUSD pool offers a 3.8% yield backed by U.S. Treasury assets. This creates an interesting contrast between aggressive token incentives and comparatively stable yield generation. 💰

S&P 500 Breaks 7,800: Bulls Are Laughing Happily, While Bears Have Already Started Studying the Weather Forecast
The S&P 500 broke above 7,800 for the first time, showing that risk appetite in the U.S. stock market remains extremely strong. On August 13, the S&P 500 hit an intraday record high of 7,816.70 points before closing near 7,800. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq also strengthened, showing that investors remain willing to embrace technology and growth assets.
The core logic behind this rally can be summed up in one sentence: The economy is not as bad as imagined, and inflation is not as frighteni

The suspension of US-Iran negotiations only serves as a backstop against a sharp decline. There is no new strong bullish catalyst to drive gold prices higher. The long-term bullish factors for US Treasuries have already been priced in, and with overseas officials’ speeches approaching later tonight, funds are generally staying on the sidelines. The willingness to enter at high levels is weak, leaving little short-term upside momentum and making a choppy pullback more likely.

After a round of strong gains, the daily chart remains at a high level, with indicators entering overbought territory.

From “Trade and Leave” to “Grind Tasks to Level Up”: Gate Is Coming Up with New Ways to Make Its Platform More Engaging
If traditional trading platforms are like supermarkets, where users go in, buy what they need, and leave, then an event points system is more like placing an arcade machine at the supermarket entrance: users can earn points by shopping, participating in activities, and completing tasks.
Users may originally plan to “buy and leave,” but then they notice the progress bar for their points and suddenly have a thought: “I’m already here, so why not play a little longer?”
That is t

I originally said on last week’s livestream that I expected this week to be bearish, but after looking at the trend on Monday, I felt something was off—Bitcoin was about to start rising. I saw 636, with resistance above at 640-646. It really surged last night and actually reached 646. I didn’t expect it to be that strong. I thought 643 would be enough, but one of my shorts was stopped out at a loss. I opened another short at 64560. I took a small profit and got out—I was too sleepy.
At least this time, I slept until 6 before waking up, not 4.

After SpaceX’s 40% Surge, the Real Test Has Just Begun: Is $150 the Finish Line or Just Halftime?
SpaceX’s recent stock price rebound has reignited the market’s imagination. From a low of around $104.83 in early August to a recent return to around $140, the stock has gained more than 30% over this period and is drawing increasingly close to the key level around $150
But looking at a slightly longer timeframe, this is still a highly volatile valuation battle.
After SpaceX went public, its stock price surged to around $225 at one point, then fell below the $135 IPO price, bottoming near $105 bef
