#ShowMyAlphaPoints

Gate Alpha Points is a reward system developed by Gate.io to encourage user activity and engagement within its Alpha (on-chain / early-access) ecosystem. This system not only rewards users for holding assets or making buy transactions, but also provides access to airdrops, TGEs (Token Generation Events), and special events.

1. Sources of Points

Gate Alpha Points come from two main sources:

Balance Points:

Points are earned based on the value of the assets held daily in the user’s Gate account. These assets may include tokens listed in the spot wallet and supported assets in the Alpha wallet.

Trading Volume Points:

Only buy transactions made in the Gate Alpha section generate points. Sell orders and transfers do not count.

Point rules work as follows:

If the daily first buy order is at least 2 USDT, the user earns 1 point.

As the buy amount increases exponentially (for example: 4 USDT, 8 USDT, 16 USDT…), additional points are awarded.

Special Points:

Gate occasionally launches special campaigns for selected tokens. During these campaigns, users can earn extra Alpha Points by buying specific coins.

Some activities (such as inviting friends or making the first Alpha transaction) may also grant additional points.

2. Point Calculation & Update Process

Gate takes a snapshot of balances and transaction data every day at 07:59:59 (UTC+8).

The total points from the last 15 days are used to determine the current Alpha Point status.

Transactions made after the daily cut-off time may count toward the next day’s points.

3. Why Alpha Points Matter (Usage Areas)

Gate Alpha Points are not just a simple reward system—they provide real benefits:

Airdrop Access

Certain projects offer airdrops to Alpha Point holders. Having points can be a requirement for participation.

TGE (Token Generation Event) Access

Users with higher Alpha Points may receive priority access to new token generation events.

Special Events & Competitions

Gate Alpha organizes special events such as lucky pools and treasure hunts based on a user’s point tier.

Scalable Benefits

The more points a user collects, the higher the level of privileges and reward opportunities.

4. Strategy & Optimization Tips

To maximize Alpha Points, consider the following:

Hold assets: Keeping USDT, stablecoins, or other supported assets helps earn regular Balance Points.

Plan buy orders: Making daily buy transactions in increasing amounts can help collect more Trading Volume Points.

Follow campaigns: Monitor Gate’s special Alpha campaigns for bonus points on selected tokens.

Join activities: Referral programs and Alpha events may grant extra points.

Use points efficiently: Track point validity and check which events offer the best value.

5. Risks & Important Warnings

Anti-manipulation rules: Wash-trading or using multiple accounts to artificially inflate points is forbidden.

Point validity: Some points may have expiration periods—unused points could expire depending on campaign rules.

Rule updates: Gate may adjust the point system, calculation rules, or campaign requirements.

App requirements: Viewing point history or Alpha status may require the latest Gate app version (e.g., 7.14.0 or above).

6. Conclusion

The Gate Alpha Points system offers users more than just a way to collect points—it provides meaningful opportunities for long-term engagement and early-access benefits. With the right strategy, users can participate in airdrops, join TGEs with priority, engage in exclusive events, and unlock deeper benefits across the Gate Alpha ecosystem.

If used effectively, Alpha Points can become not just a number, but a gateway to real rewards and opportunities.
