On September 29, 2025, Gate announced the official public beta release of its new decentralized perpetual contract platform—Gate Perp DEX. The platform features enterprise-level performance, an on-chain, verifiable trading engine, and a user-friendly interface, representing a major milestone for decentralized derivatives markets.
This public beta marks Gate’s strategic entry into decentralized contract trading, and also gives early users the chance to experience the platform and share feedback. Users who complete designated tasks can win up to 500 GT in airdrop rewards and participate in the platform’s growth.
Gate Perp DEX is built to deliver a DeFi trading experience on par with leading centralized exchanges. The platform leverages a high-speed matching engine and low-latency execution system to ensure stable performance, even in volatile market conditions.
It supports multi-chain integration, including top public chains such as BNB Chain, Ethereum, and Solana, allowing users to freely select networks for trading and asset management. Vault smart contracts and LayerZero cross-chain communication mechanisms provide strong fund security and efficient settlement.
Gate Perp DEX enables various contract order types—including limit, take-profit, stop-loss, and conditional orders—provides professional traders with a flexible set of strategies.

To participate:
After completing these steps, you become eligible for all airdrop tasks. You may also qualify for additional rewards.
The platform enforces strict anti-cheating measures. If you engage in wash trading, matched trading, or fake transactions, your rewards will be removed.
As a high-leverage derivatives trading platform, Gate Perp DEX urges users to manage positions prudently and remain vigilant about market volatility risks. Virtual asset trading is subject to significant policy changes and market sentiment fluctuations. Please participate only within your risk tolerance.
Looking ahead, the Gate team will continue to enhance Perp DEX’s features—including cross-chain settlement, algorithmic trading APIs, and liquidity mining programs. As the GateLayer Ecosystem expands, Gate Perp DEX will serve as its core derivatives infrastructure, connecting more users and assets, and driving innovation across the Web3 financial landscape.
The Gate Perp DEX public beta is not only a product launch milestone but also a pivotal step in Gate’s transition to Web3. With high-performance architecture, transparent mechanisms, and strong incentives, the platform is attracting an ever-growing community of traders and developers.
Join the public beta, complete tasks, and claim your GT airdrop rewards to usher in a new era of decentralized contract trading.
