#PTB Creative Contest
Gate.io is currently hosting an exciting CandyDrop and Launchpool event, giving users multiple ways to join and earn rewards. The campaign combines trading incentives with staking opportunities, backed by a massive prize pool ready to be shared. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect chance to boost your earnings while exploring a new token, now is the time to get involved.
CandyDrop is Gate.io’s signature airdrop platform where users complete simple tasks to earn free tokens, known as candy. This round highlights Portal To Bitcoin (PTB) with a total pool of 3,157,894 PTB. By trading, users can collect candy that later converts into PTB, with each participant eligible to earn up to 3,000 PTB.
3 Ways in How to Participate:
1. First-time futures traders with a minimum of 500 USDT in trades will instantly receive 300 PTB.
2. Regular traders can earn candies and share rewards based on trading volume:
* 1,000 USDT = 1 candy * 2,000 USDT = 3 candies * 5,000 USDT = 5 candies * Max reward: 1,200 PTB
3. VIP5 and above traders can unlock additional rewards:
* 30,000 USDT = 1 candy * 50,000 USDT = 2 candies * Max reward: 1,500 PTB
Alongside CandyDrop, Gate.io has launched Launchpool Project #309: Portal To Bitcoin (PTB). Here, users can stake BTC or PTB and share from a reward pool of 2,368,421 PTB, with distributions happening hourly.
Staking Period: September 4, 2025, 03:00 (UTC) – September 14, 2025, 03:00 (UTC)Total Rewards: 2,368,421 PTBMax staking per user: 30 BTC or 500,000 PTBMinimum staking: 0.000001 BTCUnlock: 100% redeemable after event ends.
I decided to join both CandyDrop and Launchpool to maximize my PTB rewards. In CandyDrop, I have already completed Tier 1 and Tier 2, and I am currently 40% into Tier 3. For Launchpool, I staked 21.5 PTB, which is currently giving me an impressive 241.39% APR. Watching the rewards grow in real time is both motivating and rewarding.
Don’t miss this opportunity. Join the campaigns now, complete the tasks, and enjoy the benefits of being an active Gate.io participant.
