In the field of crypto contract trading, every opening and closing position not only results in profit or loss fluctuations but also quietly accumulates a form of "invisible wealth"—Gate contract points. This incentive system, launched in October 2025, has so far distributed airdrop rewards worth approximately 3.7 million USDT to over 264k users. The maximum cumulative earnings from points exchanged in a single account have exceeded 2,600 USDT.
The true structural change occurred on February 9, 2026. On this day, Gate announced that trading volume and account balances from TradFi products would officially be included in the contract points calculation scope, breaking down the incentive barriers between crypto contracts and traditional financial assets. For traders who are also engaged in gold, forex, and stock index markets, this means that "multiple points for a single trade" is becoming a reality.

The returns from Gate financial management do not come out of thin air but are derived from clear financial logic. Based on the ultimate use of funds, Gate financial products' returns mainly come from three types of investments. The first type is the lending market: assets deposited by users in savings or fixed-term financial products, which are lent out under strict risk control frameworks to qualified traders with leverage trading or liquidity supplementation needs; the interest paid by borrowers constitutes the main source of user returns. The second type is structured derivatives: floating yield financial products represented by interval smart wins and dual-currency investments, which essentially involve users selling options to counterparties, with the option premiums paid by the counterparties converting into financial returns. The third type is on-chain native income: including PoS staking rewards, transaction fee sharing from DeFi protocol interactions, and liquidity mining rewards.
Once the sources of returns are understood, it is possible to establish reasonable return expectations. The underlying investments of different types of Gate financial products vary.

The metal market has entered a new phase characterized by high volatility and structural differentiation after experiencing a broad rally in 2025.
