Gate's recent WET contract trading activity is indeed worth paying attention to. The prize pool distribution of 337,500 WET, combined with the 200,000 WET incentive from the trading competition, makes the entire event quite substantial. The first trade directly grants a 20 WET airdrop, a method and speed of distribution that is not uncommon in major exchanges' events, but it is definitely a good entry point as a new user benefit. For users who regularly trade on Gate and haven't participated yet, the opportunity cost of joining this event isn't high—after all, trading is something you already do, so you might as well claim the airdrop and try to improve your ranking in the trading competition. The logic behind this type of event is straightforward: the larger the trading volume, the more rewards you can share. However, before participating, you should consider your own risk tolerance and avoid over-leveraging just to chase the hype.

A 20 WET airdrop and you want me to leverage? Laughing out loud, I’d rather honestly realize the assets.

20 WET Airdrop? Isn't this just a cheap entry ticket? Is it really necessary to bother?
But then again, since you're going to trade anyway, grabbing some rewards along the way doesn't really cost anything.
The key is not to be brainwashed by competition rankings; excessive leverage can really lead to heavy losses.

It's the same trick again— the bigger the trading volume, the more rewards you get. Basically, they want you to trade more and harvest more profits. The 3.37 million WET sounds impressive, but in reality, how much money does each person actually get?

The 20 WET airdrop is okay, but I'm worried it might be one of those schemes where they just recruit people and then disappear afterward.

honestly the "just do what you're already doing anyway" pitch is how people end up overleveraged... learned this the hard way. 337.5k WET sounds solid until you realize you're chasing it with borrowed money lmao

ngl, 337.5k WET pool is just statistically mediocre liquidity injection... the real alpha here? monitoring MEV extraction vectors during high-volume periods. most retail won't catch the inefficiency windows anyway, they'll just chase leaderboard rankings like lemmings. 20 WET onboarding airdrop is frankly pedestrian compared to what arbitrage surfaces actually present if you know where to look.
