Gate Soft Staking: A New Strategy Balancing Liquidity and Returns

Flexible Asset Growth Strategies

In the cryptocurrency market, investors often face a dilemma between maximizing returns and maintaining liquidity. Conventional staking models may provide interest but limit the flexibility of fund management. Gate Soft Staking eliminates this challenge by allowing users to keep tokens in their spot accounts, automatically earn rewards, and retain complete freedom to transfer, trade, or withdraw assets at any time.

Wide Asset Support

Soft Staking covers a broad spectrum of leading and emerging tokens, including BTC, ETH, GT, SOL, POL, SUI, ALGO, DOT, ATOM, AVAX, INJ, APT, ZETA, FLR, and others. Whether you’re committed to core assets for the long term or seeking exposure to innovative public blockchains, Soft Staking enables you to earn passive income.

Transparent Earnings Calculation

Gate offers a simple, transparent earnings calculation process:

• Formula: Average daily holdings × Annual Percentage Rate (APR) ÷ 365
• Snapshot schedule: Automatic daily snapshot at 08:00 UTC to ensure fair calculation
• Reward distribution: Users start accruing earnings the next day, and Gate pays out rewards automatically between 00:00 and 08:00 UTC daily

This system lets users clearly track their earnings and minimizes uncertainty.

Three Major Benefits of Soft Staking

1. No lock-up requirements: Access your funds anytime for trading or withdrawal

2. Fully passive income: Simply hold your tokens and receive automatic returns

3. Enhanced compounding: Daily earnings roll into your principal, amplifying long-term growth

How to Enable Soft Staking?

There are two ways to activate Soft Staking:

1. Enable via spot account (Web)
Go to your spot account, click the Soft Staking button under your chosen token. You activate Soft Staking when the button turns green.

2. Enable via Soft Staking page
Navigate to the finance page, select Soft Staking, and click Activate to enable the feature.

Important Considerations

1. To earn Soft Staking rewards, users must meet minimum holding requirements for each token. There is also a cap on eligible holdings for reward calculations; amounts above this cap will not accrue rewards. For details, refer to the Soft Staking page.

2. The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for Soft Staking may change daily. Actual rates are adjusted based on market conditions and other factors to ensure stable and competitive returns.

3. You will receive your first staking reward in your spot account between 00:00 and 08:00 UTC on the day after the initial snapshot (the second day post-activation). Subsequent Soft Staking rewards are distributed daily; however, network or system issues may cause occasional delays.

4. Soft Staking is currently available exclusively on the Web platform.

5. Gate remains committed to providing secure, compliant asset growth services. If you need assistance, contact our customer support team.
