The articles '...019fa7fa...' and '...019fa8a9...' confirm broader deposit, trading and Launchpool (SPCX stock airdrop) incentives with a stated 200,000 USDT reward pool.

Summary

Gate launched short-duration event contracts for BTC and ETH with prediction windows of 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour and 4 hours, supported by a $20,000 campaign that began at 10:00 UTC+8 on July 27 and included up to $5 compensation for the first 4,000 users whose first trade posted a loss. It later announced a separate FOMC rate-decision event contract campaign starting July 29 at 12:00 UTC+8, also offering a $20,000 airdrop through what it described as a dual-incentive structure tied to trading activity.
