Gate Futures Points Ecosystem: A New Engine for Sustainable Trading Strategies

Gate Futures Points: A New Ecosystem

In the past, derivatives traders typically focused only on position management, capital control, and market volatility. Gate’s Futures Points Program reimagines the added value of trading. Everyday actions—such as placing orders, holding positions, or inviting friends—become sustainable strategic resources. Trading is no longer just a one-off transaction. Instead, it’s part of a dynamic system that lets users continuously accumulate, freely deploy, and reinvest points to support their own strategies.

A Transparent Operational Framework

This points system is built around high automation. From daily snapshots and trading volume calculations to reward distribution, the system manages everything—no manual applications or extra steps needed. Importantly, there are no fixed restrictions on how points are used. Traders can redeem them as their strategies require, so everyone can leverage these extra resources at their own pace.

Three Main Point Sources: Diverse Accumulation Channels

Gate has structured point accumulation into three models, ensuring every trader can find the most effective way to earn points.

1. Trading Accumulation: The More You Trade, the Faster You Grow

The more frequently you trade, the greater your rewards:

• Earn 1 point for every 400 USDT in trading volume
• Both opening and closing trades count toward the total
• No daily cap—active users can accumulate unlimited points

Maintaining a steady trading rhythm means every action becomes a source of long-term returns.

2. Daily Balance Snapshots: Earn Points by Simply Holding Assets

The system automatically takes daily snapshots of account balances (including spot assets in unified accounts), awarding fixed points based on asset levels:

• $100 ≤ Balance < $1,000: 1 point/day
• $1,000 ≤ Balance < $10,000: 2 points/day
• $10,000 ≤ Balance < $100,000: 3 points/day
• ≥ $100,000: 4 points/day

(Note: Funds in financial accounts are excluded from snapshots.)

3. Invitation Rewards: Grow the Community, Expand Your Resources

Invite friends to futures trading and earn points:

• Invite 1 friend: 1 point
• Invite 2 friends: 2 points
• Invite 3 or more friends: 3 points

Only valid if the invited friend accumulates at least 2 points.

How Can You Use Points?

Accumulated points can be redeemed for a range of resources to support your trading strategies, including:

• Cash Tokens: Offset trading-related costs
• Position Vouchers: Trial positions for testing new strategies
• Trial Bonuses: Simulate trades with lower risk for beginners or strategists

Gate will continue expanding redemption options to maximize the long-term value of points.

Transparent and Fair Program Rules

To ensure fairness, the program follows these rules:

• Points are valid for 15 days
• Rewards are distributed daily by the system
• Points are used on a first-to-expire, first-used basis
• No points are awarded for single-day trading volumes below 400 USDT
• Not available to market makers or institutional accounts

Clear rules help traders better plan their accumulation and redemption strategies.

A Cyclical Model for Trading Growth

Gate’s Futures Points Program is essentially a positive feedback loop: Trading → Points → Resources → Stronger Strategies → Increased Activity → More Points.

No matter your trading style, you’ll find your place in this ecosystem:

• High-frequency traders: Convert trading volume into substantial points
• Long-term holders: Daily snapshots generate steady accumulation
• Community promoters: Invite friends to expand resource channels

Points become more than just rewards—they’re tools that drive the ongoing evolution of trading strategies.

Summary

The core value of Gate’s Futures Points Program is that trading is no longer just about the present—it becomes part of your broader strategy. No extra capital required, no need to chase rewards. Just follow your trading rhythm to continually accumulate resources for future trades. This value-through-action model embodies the core spirit of Web3:

Participation brings rewards. Contribution fuels growth.
