In highly volatile contract markets, stable execution and clear strategies are often more important than short-term luck. To honor traders who continuously create value in complex market conditions, Gate officially launches the VIP Contract Elite Challenge Year-End Gala. This event is open to VIP users and combines annual-level competition with trading volume performance, ranking mechanisms, and multiple rewards to provide top traders with a stage to showcase their strength and earn honors.

The dual competition zone leaderboard and annual cash prize pool mechanism
The year-end gala adopts a parallel leaderboard design with Diamond and Platinum zones, allowing VIP users with different trading volumes to compete fairly within their respective tracks. As trading volume increases, the leaderboard prize pools expand in a tiered manner, with the overall annual cash reward reaching up to 60,000 USDT. Even if participants do not rank in the final cash reward list, as long as they meet trading volume requirements and successfully make the leaderboard, they can still receive a position experience voucher, enabling more participants to enjoy the event’s benefits.

How the Glory Gain System Amplifies Trading Returns
This year-end gala introduces a special “Glory Gain” mechanism to provide additional incentives for long-term active elite traders. Users who have previously ranked in past trading competitions and re-enter the leaderboard to earn cash rewards will unlock different levels of cash bonuses based on their historical rankings. This mechanism not only emphasizes current performance but also encourages long-term stable participation, allowing consistently excellent traders to achieve higher returns.

Multiple incentives including lotteries, gold bars, and physical rewards
Beyond the leaderboard cash prizes, the year-end gala features a variety of interactive reward mechanisms. Users who complete designated trading tasks or VIP upgrade goals can participate in lucky draws, with prizes including New Year cash red envelopes, practical devices, and Apple ecosystem products. Additionally, VIP5 and above users can unlock a 88g gold bar scratch card opportunity during trading, with a 100% winning rate, turning trading actions into instant reward feedback.

Additional benefits from VIP level upgrades
During the year-end gala, VIP levels themselves become a key incentive. Users who upgrade to a higher VIP level for the first time can unlock additional upgrade gifts based on their level, and through the VIP experience card mechanism, users who have not yet reached VIP5 can experience high-level privileges in advance. This design makes the competition not only a test of trading ability but also part of the VIP growth path.

Important rules to note before participating
Due to the large scale of rewards in this event, participants should pay close attention to the relevant rules, including registration time, trading volume calculation period, minimum trading thresholds, and reward distribution methods. Meanwhile, the platform maintains strict risk control over abnormal trading behaviors to ensure fairness. Rewards for eligible participants will be distributed uniformly after the event concludes, with final results subject to Gate’s official review.
