A New Tool for Dynamic Asset Control
In the crypto investment landscape, balancing liquidity and yield has always been challenging. Gate’s soft staking solution lets users earn passive income without locking up assets—holdings automatically generate rewards, delivering immediate returns while users remain free to trade or withdraw their assets anytime.
Extensive Token Support
Soft staking is available for a wide range of major and trending assets, including BTC, ETH, GT, SOL, POL, SUI, ALGO, DOT, ATOM, AVAX, INJ, APT, ZETA, FLR, and others. Whether you’re investing in established names like Bitcoin and Ethereum or seeking opportunities with emerging blockchain tokens, this feature allows you to maximize your earning potential.
Clear and Transparent Earnings Structure
Gate has implemented an automated earnings framework to ensure transparency and peace of mind:
- Daily Earnings: Gate calculates your earnings by multiplying your average holdings by the APR and dividing by 365.
- Snapshot Timing: Gate takes a daily snapshot of assets at 08:00 UTC to ensure data integrity and fairness.
- Automated Distribution: Gate starts calculating rewards from the day after you activate soft staking. The platform distributes rewards automatically between 00:00 and 08:00 UTC the next day. Daily payouts continue thereafter.
Three Core Benefits
- No Lockup Required: You can trade, transfer, or withdraw your assets at any time—no restrictions.
- Effortless Passive Returns: When you hold eligible tokens, the system automatically calculates and distributes rewards.
- Compound Growth: Daily earnings are reinvested into your principal, which increases your returns over time.
Activation Methods
Users can enable soft staking via two convenient options:
Via the Spot Account (Web)
Go to your spot account and click the soft staking button under the chosen token. When the button turns green, soft staking is active.
Via the Soft Staking Page
Navigate to the Finance section, select soft staking, and click Activate to enable the feature.
Key Considerations
- To receive soft staking rewards, users must meet the minimum holding requirement for each token. There’s also a maximum eligible holding limit—holdings above this cap won’t earn additional rewards. For further details, please check the soft staking page.
- The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for soft staking may fluctuate daily. Rates are adjusted in response to market conditions and other factors to maintain competitive, stable returns.
- The initial staking reward is credited to your spot account between 00:00 and 08:00 UTC the day after activation. Subsequent soft staking rewards are distributed daily. Delays may occasionally occur due to network or system issues.
- Currently, soft staking is only available on the web platform.
- Gate remains committed to providing secure and compliant asset growth solutions. For any questions, contact Gate’s official customer support.
