- Participants must click the [Join Now] button on the event page to register for the event and complete identity verification to be eligible for rewards.
- To ensure fairness, the number of wallets linked to a single IP is strictly monitored. Any abnormal multiple-account activity will be considered a violation, and result in disqualification.
- All airdrop rewards will be distributed within 14 working days after the event ends.
- Net Futures Trading Volume = Open Position Volume + Close Position Volume
- USDT airdrops from different event tasks can be combined.
- In the trading leaderboard challenge, if none of the participants meet the minimum individual futures trading volume requirement, the corresponding airdrop rewards will not be distributed. Those who meet the minimum trading volume requirement will be ranked based on the order they reach the criteria, and the first 100 users will receive the reward spots in sequence.
- Please note that the real-time rankings displayed on the trading leaderboard have not been filtered according to the minimum individual futures trading volume. They do not represent the final results. Actual rewards will be issued based on the verified list of winners.
- "New users" under the same identity verification are not allowed to create multiple wallet accounts to join the event. Existing wallet accounts that are deactivated and later re-registered again will also not be regarded as "new users."
- Gate reserves the right to disqualify any participant who is deemed to be involved in fraudulent, manipulative, or deceptive conduct, including but not limited to wash trading, improper order matching, bulk account registration, or any other dishonest behaviors. Engaging in any suspicious activities, such as fraud, self-trading, wash trading, coordinated trading, market manipulation, or any other type of illegal trading, will result in disqualification from the event and forfeiture of airdrop eligibility.
- Users participating in multiple events during the same period will receive only the highest-value airdrop. The platform reserves the final right of interpretation for the terms of this event.
- In case of any discrepancies between the translated version and the English version, the English version shall prevail.
