With the continued heating of the crypto market, more and more innovative projects are distributing high-quality tokens in advance to active users through airdrop activities. On August 27, 2025, at 19:00 (UTC+8), Gate Alpha will officially launch the airdrop event for the first listing of Bitlayer (BTR), and eligible users can participate and claim. As an important attempt by the Gate platform in the Alpha ecosystem, this event not only brings substantial rewards to users but also lays a solid foundation for the subsequent development of the Bitlayer project.

The rules for the BTR Airdrop event launched by Gate Alpha are relatively clear; users only need to meet basic conditions to receive rewards during the event period.

Bitlayer (BTR) Project Background
Bitlayer is one of the most innovative projects in the current Bitcoin ecosystem, dedicated to implementing the first BitVM solution. It brings unprecedented scalability and composability to Bitcoin DeFi by combining Bitcoin’s native security architecture with a high-speed smart contract engine.
The project has completed financing of 30 million USD, with investors including well-known institutions such as Polychain Capital, Franklin Templeton, Framework, ABCDE, StarkWare, and Alliance. Bitlayer’s core goal is to create a trustless cross-chain bridge (BitVM Bridge) for the Bitcoin network, interest-bearing asset YBTC, and high-throughput Bitcoin Rollup, thereby solidifying the infrastructure of Bitcoin DeFi and enhancing its true application value.
Currently, BTR has been deployed on the BNB Chain, and the contract address is: 0xfed13D0c40790220fbdE712987079Eda1Ed75C51.
Gate Alpha Points System Analysis
In order to participate in this Airdrop event, Gate Alpha points are a key requirement. These points are a comprehensive assessment metric generated based on user behavior data (asset holdings, trading activity, etc.) on the Gate platform and within the Alpha ecosystem.
- Points definition: The cumulative total of daily points over the past 15 days.
- The role of points: to determine users’ participation in Token Airdrops, TGE subscriptions, limited-time activities, and other multiple rights.
- Point Advantage: The higher the points, the more diverse activity rewards users can unlock.
In other words, Gate Alpha points are not only a measure of user activity, but also an important credential for accessing early opportunities in more quality projects in the future.
