Market volatility serves as the ultimate test for trading strategies and risk management systems. To reward loyal users who have supported the platform over the long term and help seasoned traders regain their momentum during periods of rest, Gate officially launched the VIP Asset Safeguard Program Phase II on April 2, 2026. This event builds on the first phase with comprehensive enhancements—lower participation thresholds and significantly increased subsidies. With a sincere commitment backed by a million-dollar safeguard fund, Gate offers users full-spectrum support, from asset drawdown buffers to elevated identity privileges.
The event runs from April 2, 2026, 07:00 UTC until April 30, 2026, 15:59 UTC. During this period, eligible VIP users can enjoy automatic loss subsidies, limited-time VIP tier upgrades, enhanced yields on stable investment products, and exclusive reunion incentives designed for returning users.
Automatic Settlement of Up to 150,000 USDT in Monthly Loss Subsidies
Focus is key in trading. Gate has optimized the subsidy distribution process for this event, adopting a fully automated settlement model. When users experience contract position liquidations due to adverse market movements, there’s no need for complex application procedures. The system will automatically calculate and distribute subsidies based on liquidation data within the statistical cycle.
The specific distribution rules are as follows:
- Tier Requirement: Users must be VIP 6 or above.
- Trigger Condition: Cumulative contract position liquidation amount during the statistical cycle must be at least 40,000 USDT.
- Total Subsidy per Cycle: Increased to 150,000 USDT.
- Settlement Cycle: Each statistical cycle runs from the 26th of the month to the 25th of the following month. The system completes calculations before the end of the month, and rewards are automatically credited as contract trial funds to eligible accounts.
Subsidy amounts are determined based on the cumulative contract position liquidation amount over the past 30 days, with the following tiers:
| Cumulative Contract Position Liquidation Amount (Last 30 Days) | Subsidy Amount |
|---|---|
| 40,000 - 70,000 USDT | 100 USDT |
| 70,001 - 100,000 USDT | 200 USDT |
| 100,001 - 150,000 USDT | 300 USDT |
| 150,001 - 200,000 USDT | 400 USDT |
| 200,001 - 300,000 USDT | 500 USDT |
| 300,001 - 500,000 USDT | 800 USDT |
| 500,001 - 1,000,000 USDT | 1,000 USDT |
| Over 1,000,000 USDT | 1,500 USDT |
Exclusive VIP Tier Recovery Package
Users who receive the contract trial fund benefit will also unlock an additional identity privilege. By proactively contacting their dedicated VIP account manager, users can receive a complimentary 30-day "VIP +1" tier experience card. This privilege is designed to help users gain a broader perspective with enhanced resources, enjoy more competitive fee discounts, exclusive limit increases, and break through their current trading ceiling.
Enhanced Yield on Stable Investment Products
Effective allocation of idle funds is essential during market consolidation phases. To meet VIP users’ steady growth needs, Gate offers VIP 6 and above users access to a 5% USDT 7-day fixed-term yield booster coupon. This benefit is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Product details are as follows:
| Product | Yield Rate | Term | Individual Subscription Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| USDT 7-Day Fixed-Term Investment | 5% | 7 days | 50,000 USDT |
Million-Dollar Reunion Fund for Returning Users
Markets may shift, but old friendships remain constant. For high-net-worth users who previously left the platform but have recently returned, Gate has established a "Reunion Fund" totaling up to 1,000,000 USDT, featuring dual incentives.
Privilege One: VIP Identity Restart Gift
If a user’s VIP tier was below 6 between January 1 and March 31, 2026, and they upgrade to VIP 6 or above during the event period based on a comprehensive assessment of asset holdings, trading volume, and GT positions, they can unlock a 50 USDT contract trial fund.
Privilege Two: Trading Sprint Dual Incentives
After regaining VIP 6 or higher status, users who meet cumulative trading volume requirements within the past 30 days can claim additional cash airdrop rewards:
- Contract trading volume reaches 10,000,000 USDT: receive a 200 USDT airdrop.
- Spot trading volume reaches 3,000,000 USDT: receive a 100 USDT airdrop.
- TradFi trading volume reaches 50,000,000 USDT: receive a 50 USDT airdrop.
How to claim: All of the above benefits must be requested through your dedicated VIP account manager.
