What is Gate Alpha?
Gate Alpha is an innovative trading platform created by Gate, enabling users to trade trending tokens across major blockchains—including Solana, BSC, Base, Ethereum, and World—with just one click and no need for a Web3 wallet. The platform integrates on-chain data, curated rankings, and real-time filtering, combined with a rigorous token selection process, to deliver a safer and more efficient on-chain investment experience.
Key features include:
- Comprehensive multi-chain token trading support
- Support for trending in-platform tokens like Pump.fun and Bonk.fun
- Industry-leading token listing speeds with response times measured in minutes
- Curated project recommendations and real-time data tracking
On top of these, Gate created the Alpha Point System to serve as a key benchmark for measuring user engagement and distributing rewards.
Introduction to the Gate Alpha Point System
The Gate Alpha Point System evaluates users based on their asset holdings and trading activity. The system captures daily snapshots of user accounts at a set time and tallies points according to activity in the Alpha Featured Zone. Points are calculated by aggregating data across the past 15 days. Update schedule: system updates are completed by 14:00 (UTC+8) each day.
How to Earn Gate Alpha Points: Detailed Breakdown
Your points come from two main sources:
1. Balance-Based Points
- Holding eligible assets in your Gate centralized account earns you daily points.
- Snapshots are taken daily at 07:59:59 (UTC+8), calculated based on market value.
- Non-supported tokens or assets not listed on the spot market do not generate points.
2. Trading Volume Points
- Only “buy” transactions in the Gate Alpha Featured Zone qualify.
- Your first buy of the day must be at least 2 USDT to earn points.
- Points increase with every doubling of your purchase amount: 2 USDT = 1 point, 4 USDT = 2 points, 8 USDT = 3 points, and so on—with no upper limit.
How Points Are Used: Airdrop Access, TGE Eligibility, and More

Gate Alpha Points are a key factor for resource allocation and access to exclusive opportunities, including:
- Airdrop eligibility: for example, only users with at least 65 Alpha Points can participate in the RION airdrop.
- TGE (Token Generation Event) whitelist: get priority access to high-quality project launches.
- Priority entry to activities: such as limited-time tasks, reward events, and more.
- Future expansion: potential use for staking or exclusive NFT privileges.
Claiming airdrops is straightforward: open the App > go to the [Alpha Points] page > see available airdrops > if eligible, click to claim.
How to Boost Your Gate Alpha Points
To quickly grow your points, focus on the following strategies:
- Maintain sufficient assets in your spot account—especially leading tokens supported by the platform.
- Participate in Alpha Zone trading every day; make sure you complete at least one qualifying buy daily.
- Prioritize platform-promoted projects to earn extra rewards more easily.
- Use the latest version of the App to ensure real-time data sync and seamless access to activities.
- Avoid prohibited behaviors: the system will detect wash trading, self-trading, and similar actions, which will disqualify your points eligibility.
Important Notes and Risk Warnings
- Eligibility criteria are strict. If you don’t meet the point requirements, you won’t qualify for certain airdrops or TGE participation.
- Multiple account merging: only the main account’s points are valid; sub-account points are combined for statistics but cannot be used independently.
- Always review token risk information before trading: the platform provides contract checks, holding distribution, fund flow analysis, and more.
- Market volatility and individual risk: Alpha projects can be highly volatile—invest with caution.
- The system reserves final interpretation rights: rules may be updated at any time, so monitor official announcements regularly.
