[//]:content-type-MARKDOWN-DONOT-DELETE To further enhance ecosystem development and optimize user participation experience, the Gate Alpha Points System will officially launch on July 28, 2025. Alpha Points will serve as the core metric for evaluating users' eligibility in token generation events (TGEs), Alpha token airdrops, and other ecosystem benefits. The following outlines the core mechanisms and rules of the points system: **1. Definition and Purpose of Alpha Points** * **Definition** : Gate Alpha Points are an activity metric derived from user behavior data within the Gate platform and Alpha ecosystem (including asset holdings and trading activity). The points value is the cumulative total of daily points over the past 15 days. * **Purpose** : Alpha Points directly determine your eligibility for participating in Alpha airdrops, TGE subscriptions, limited-time events, and other privileges. The higher your points, the more activities you can access. **2. Point Calculation Rules** **2.1 Balance Points** Balance points are calculated based on total assets held within the centralized Gate exchange. Only tokens listed on Gate spot market and assets in the Alpha account (including internal trading tokens) are included. Tokens not displayed in the Alpha section or not tradable on the Gate spot market are excluded from the calculation. **Calculation Logic** : Based on the real-time market value (in USD) of eligible assets each day, daily balance points are generated accordingly. Please refer to the Alpha Points dashboard for specific figures. **2.2 Trading Volume Points** * **Eligibility** : Only the buy-side trading volume of tokens in the Alpha Featured section on Gate is counted. Sell-side transactions and internal trades are not included. **Rules** : * First daily buy ≥ 2 USDT earns 1 point * After the first purchase, for every doubling of the purchase amount (e.g., 4 USDT → 8 USDT → 16 USDT…), you will receive 1 additional point. (Example: Buy 4 USDT to get 2 points, buy 8 USDT to get 3 points, and so on.) **2.3 Special Point Rules** Gate Alpha will periodically host token-related campaigns, where trading specific tokens may grant extra points. Details will be specified in each activity’s announcement. **3. Time & Snapshot Rules** * **Daily Snapshot Time** : 00:00:00 (UTC) – system snapshots your qualified asset balance and daily trading volume. * **Points Update Time** : By 02:00 (UTC) daily – system updates your total Alpha Points based on cumulative daily points over the past 15 days. **Example** : * If you complete a trade before 00:00:00 on April 22 (UTC), it counts towards the April 22 point cycle. * Trades after 00:00:00 on April 23 (UTC) count toward the April 23 cycle. **4. How to View Your Points** Alpha Points can be viewed and airdrops claimed only through App version APP 7.14.0 or above. You can access the "Alpha Points" page via: * **Option 1** : Gate App → Sidebar → Click [Alpha Points] * **Option 2** : App Order Panel → Top-right Corner → Click [Alpha Points] * **Option 3** : App Homepage Search → Search [Alpha Points] → Click to Enter **5. Points-Based Airdrop Redemption** Users can redeem airdrops by spending a certain amount of Alpha Points. Each airdrop must be manually claimed within a specified time window; failure to do so will result in forfeiting the reward. Exact rules will be provided in each airdrop campaign announcement. * Once claimed, airdrop rewards will be distributed to your Alpha account within 1 hour. **6. Launch Notes & Important Reminders** 1. Alpha Points were pre-calculated before the official launch. Users can directly view their current Alpha Points balance. 2. Only main accounts are eligible for Alpha Points. Sub-account balances and trading volumes will be merged into the main account and not calculated separately. 3. Points are used only for activity eligibility assessment and do not affect asset holding, trading, or withdrawal rights. 4. Point rules may be adjusted in response to ecosystem developments. Please refer to official Gate Alpha announcements for the latest updates. 5. For questions, visit the Help Center within the Gate App or contact customer service via official community channels.
