Gate has opened Launchpool #365 with dual GUSD staking pools that will distribute a total of 15 XAUT between July 09, 2026 at 12:00 (UTC) and July 16, 2026 at 12:00 (UTC). The exchange said users can stake GUSD to earn hourly rewards paid automatically to spot accounts, with a newcomers-exclusive pool offering 3 XAUT and a general GUSD pool offering 12 XAUT. Gate also said eligible new users can receive a 100 USDT Position Voucher if they keep staking in the newcomer pool for at least 48 hours with an average effective staked amount of 100 GUSD, subject to a 3,000-user first-come, first-served cap. The newcomer pool sets a 0.01 XAUT hourly prize pool, a 0.003 XAUT hourly reward cap per user, a maximum staking amount of 5,000 GUSD and a minimum of 0.05 GUSD. The standard GUSD pool sets a 0.07 XAUT hourly prize pool, a 0.02 XAUT hourly reward cap per user, a maximum staking amount of 1,700,000 GUSD and the same 0.05 GUSD minimum. Gate said Launchpool supports advance staking before mining starts so users can begin earning as soon as the campaign opens. Gate described GUSD as a flexible, principal-protected investment product with daily rewards sourced from Gate ecosystem revenue, tokenized treasuries, other RWA (real-world assets tokenized onchain) and stablecoin-backed yield assets. The company said GUSD is tradable, can be used as collateral and currently offers 3.8% minting rewards distributed daily. Participation requires identity verification, and users in the United Kingdom and other Restricted Locations cannot access the services, including this event.
